    The Grace Of God - Sermon For Proper 20 - Year A

    Contributed by Ian Bullock on Sep 18, 2020
     | 2,891 views

    How does Gods grace affect our lives, and are we willing to accept it, and turn away from what the world regards as important.

    In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen. When I was a child I hated P.E. at school, whenever we were going to play a team sport, I always knew that the two captains would be the same two athletic boys, and that I would always be the one who wasn’t picked, but just ended up on the ...read more

    Universal Prayer

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 29, 2013
    based on 5 ratings
     | 4,663 views

    We are called to universal prayer because God desires that "all men" be saved. This is the purpose behind the doctrine of election. There is only one God, one Mediator, one sacrifice. The church's mission is to make a universal declaration of this truth.

    UNIVERSAL PRAYER. 1 Timothy 2:1-7. CONTEXT. The faithful saying that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners is worthy of all acceptation - or ‘worthy to be accepted by ALL’ - (1 Timothy 1:15). “Therefore” - as a priority - Paul exhorts Timothy that “supplications, prayers, ...read more

     | 18,541 views

    With this year being 2020, its worthwhile to ask: what would 20/20 vision look like for us as Christian and for our church?

    OPEN: Three ladies were in a restaurant and as they picked up their menus each one put on a pair of glasses. A little embarrassed, the first woman said "I really only need mine for close reading." The second shyly remarked, "I only use mine when the light is bad." The third ...read more

    The LORD cares for the poor. So should we.

    AN INDICTMENT AGAINST THE UNSCRUPULOUS. Amos 8:4-7. You trample upon the needy and make the poor of the land fail (Amos 8:4; cf. Amos 5:11).

    Proper 27 B Be Thou A Blessing Motive For Ministry

    Contributed by Charles Scott on Nov 20, 2006
     | 2,458 views

    Christians sometimes fail to realize the great eternal value of the gifts God has given them if used in his service; the widow’s mite and the poor widow in Elijah’s day are examples of how God values our gifts.

    Proper 27 B BE THOU A BLESSING MOTIVE FOR MINISTRY I Kings 17:8-16 The word of the Lord came to Elijah the prophet, saying, “Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and dwell there. Behold, I have commanded a widow there to feed you.” So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to ...read more

    Rediscovering The Awe And Wonder - Proper 22 - Year B

    Contributed by Ian Bullock on Sep 21, 2021
     | 2,146 views

    How do we rekindle our childlike faith of wonder and awe. Dare we be bold and love others and work to be the church that God wants.

    In the name of the father, son and Holy Spirit. Amen. The Gospel today is certainly a fiery one, how do you preach on a subject such as divorce, where there are so many issues about what can bring about a divorce in present day society. However, as I sat contemplating the words of the Gospel, ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,043 views

    Make me an offer I can't refuse!

    THE CALL OF WISDOM. Proverbs 9:1-6. Even before she invited us, Lady Wisdom “built her house” (Proverbs 9:1). The hewing out of Lady Wisdom’s “seven pillars” speaks of completeness (unlike the ‘folly’ in Edinburgh which was never completed), spaciousness, and endurance. ‘I go to prepare a ...read more

    For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

    A STRAIT BETWIXT THE TWAIN. Philippians 1:21-30. The Apostle Paul had just referred to his ‘earnest expectation and hope’ that Christ should now be ‘magnified’ in Paul’s body ‘whether by life or by death’ (cf. Philippians 1:20). Suddenly, it seems, Paul found himself in a state of ...read more
