    The second significant sign in the Gospel of John.

    THE HEALING OF THE SON OF A NOBLEMAN. John 4:46-54. Returning to Cana, where Jesus had turned the water into wine, He was met by a royal official from Capernaum whose son was sick, even to the point of death.

    Let us not be of those who draw back.

    THE COST OF DISCIPLESHIP. John 6:60-71. JOHN 6:60. “Many therefore of His disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?” Many “disciples,” who had been following Jesus for a season, were now beginning to turn back.

    Our wisdom is to receive by faith what we do not yet understand.

    EASTER EVENING. Luke 24:13-49. A man named Cleopas and his travelling companion were on their way back from Jerusalem, walking the seven miles to a village named Emmaus. Their conversation was very much taken up with concerns about the death of Jesus. A stranger drew near, and walked with ...read more

  • A Year And A Day.

     | 2,352 views

    The acceptable year of the LORD and the day of vengeance.

    A YEAR AND A DAY. (1) The Acceptable Year of the Lord (Luke 4:16-21). This is thought to be earliest record which we have of a synagogue service. Perhaps Isaiah 61:1-2 was the reading of the day, but Jesus deliberately chose where to end the reading. Luke 4:18-19 stops short of ‘the ...read more

  • Everything She Had: A Life That Matters Series

    Contributed by Amiri Hooker on Nov 6, 2021
     | 2,588 views

    The first attribute of a life that matters that we will examine in this series of sermons this month is generosity. Generosity, as reflected in our gospel text this week, is about how we hold the stuff of this life lightly, even as we hold people and Christ tightly.

    A well-known hymn that captures this idea of generosity is “Take My Life, and Let It Be,” 399 in The United Methodist Hymnal. The middle verse often catches us singing with our fingers crossed: “Take my silver and my gold; not a mite would I withhold.” In this text of the widow’s mite, we need to ...read more

    Leaving all to follow Jesus.

    ABRAM STEPS OUT IN FAITH. Genesis 12:1-4. Our story begins in Ur of the Chaldees, in what is now Southern Iraq, a predominantly pagan city of about 250,000 people, with a central temple to the moon god Sin. Here Abram’s father Terah was thought to have been a craftsman within the moon cult. At a ...read more

    In the fullness of the time God sent forth His Son. Galatians 4.4.

    THE FULLNESS OF TIME. Galatians 4:4-7. In Galatians 4:4, Paul speaks of a fullness of time. In what sense was it the fullness of the time? There is a time for everything under the sun (Ecclesiastes 3:1). God has set limits to the times and boundaries of the nations from all eternity (Acts ...read more

  • The Dumb Donkey Spoke.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 19, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 287 views

    The King who feared a people who were no threat to him; the blind Seer and dumbfounded Soothsayer who could neither see nor curse; and the dumb donkey who saw and spoke for God.

    THE DUMB DONKEY SPOKE. Numbers 22:21-31. After Israel’s defeat of the Amorites, who had once conquered lands belonging to Moab (cf. Numbers 21:26), the Moabites were terrified at the presence of the children of Israel (cf. Numbers 22:2-3). [They need not have been, because the LORD had expressly ...read more

     | 510 views

    The ultimate Son of man, the new Adam, is given dominion over all mankind.

    JESUS CLAIMS HIS KINGDOM. Daniel 7:13-14. In DANIEL 7:13, “one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of Days, and they brought Him near before Him.” In the Gospels, ‘Son of man’ is Jesus’ favourite name for Himself (cf. Mark 14:61-62). It was understood to ...read more

  • Love The Lord Thy God.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 630 views

    The LORD is God alone, and will tolerate no rivals.

    LOVE THE LORD THY GOD. Deuteronomy 6:4-9. One of the core texts in the whole Bible is the Shema (DEUTERONOMY 6:4-5). “Hear O Israel…” is something of a refrain in Deuteronomy, much as Jesus would later often say, ‘he who has ears to hear, let him hear.’ Here we are told who the LORD is, and ...read more

    Shaping our prayers in accordance with what we know about the character of God.

    A BOLD PRAYER. Genesis 18:23-32. The conversation between the LORD and Abraham suggests a relationship. God shares His Word with His covenant children, and prompts us to respond.

    If we have been made conformable to Jesus' death, then we will be made conformable also to His resurrection (PHILIPPIANS 3:21).

    OUR CITIZENSHIP IN HEAVEN. Philippians 3:17-21. The Apostle Paul had been telling of the forward motion in his own Christian life (cf. Philippians 3:13-14), and encouraged his readers to be like-minded with him (cf. Philippians 3:15-16). The writer even went so far as to set himself up as an ...read more
