    Throughout History Sin has been a topic that we know what it is, & we don’t talk about it. We know not to do it, or encourage others to do it. What’s changed? Sin has become so open & welcome!

    Sermon- What has become of sin? - In studying Hosea we talked a little about the openness of sin before the fall of northern Israel. - The way sin works is, it comes in as a mere thought. Then comes the response to the thought, & sin is produced. Then when sin is produced, ...read more

    Samuel records David’s last song written as King. He struggled as a husband, father, warrior, and king, and yet in the history of a people, God calls only him, “A man after My own heart.” David, now at the end of a legacy, leaves for us a song of praise.

    Christ is Lord even over those who seem to have all the influence today. They’re not running things, He is. They’re not shaping history, He is. None can override him, for Christ holds the keys. He will be forever secure on his throne!

    A change in government is always a big deal: there are new cabinet members to choose, new policies to begin implementing, new office spaces to move into. The old is quickly shuffled to one side, and the new is put into the spotlight. In our text today, we see something similar. Isaiah 22 describes ...read more

    People often neglect righteous Joseph while focussing on the theme of Christmas. But do you know there is a man who stands silently next to the manger in the nativity scene? He is not even given a single line to speak! Then he disappears completely from history after the teenage years of Jesus.

    INTRODUCTION There is a story of courage that took place in the very first Christmas. It is about righteous Joseph. But it is a story we often miss because people’s Christmas focus is mostly around a young mother Mary and her son, Jesus. People often neglect righteous Joseph while focussing on the ...read more
