    Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021
     | 1,926 views

    The Bible’s teaching on the subject of the Trinity is rarely addressed in sermons yet it hangs around in the background of so much a church does and talks about.

    Today, we continue a series of messages entitled Creed: 9 Essentials to the Christian Faith Why This Series? The reason for this series is that beliefs matter. Beliefs fundamentally alter the shape of our lives. This series, Creed, is designed to answer those who wonder what really lies at the ...read more

    The breaking of bread was a vital aspect of the early church. This sermon gives us the background, meaning and significance for us as the body of Christ today. Read on and be blessed.

    In Acts 2:46 we read, “So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they were sharing food with joy and simplicity of heart,” (EMTV) As we continue to study the life of the early church, we recognize that the hand of God rested powerfully on them, and ...read more

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 11, 2023
     | 2,592 views

    Our life as followers of Christ serve as either a hymn of praise pointing to our Saviour, or it serves as mere background noise for the delight of a dying world.

    “[By the waters of Babylon] our captors required of us songs, and our tormentors, mirth, saying, ‘Sing us one of the songs of Zion!’ “How shall we sing the LORD’s song in a foreign land? If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget its skill!” [1] “Our citizenship is in Heaven, ...read more

    A brief background about John the Baptizer, who was Mark, and why would Jesus have to be Baptized? This was preached on a Sunday morning when an adult Baptism was performed.

    The Baptism of Jesus This morning, we’ll begin taking a walk through the Gospel of Mark. It seems to me it’s probably a good idea to know a little about Mark as we begin this journey. And after we come to know a little more about Mark, we’ll look at what happened one day in a river long ago and ...read more

     | 5,463 views

    What does it take to be a soldier for Christ? This message ends with a bold statement of being a soldier for Christ and was delivered with soft background music. Very heart-touching.

    This past Wednesday was Veteran’s Day. I don’t want to let that day go by without honoring our veterans and thanking them for their service. After all, if it wasn’t for their service, we might not have the freedoms that we have. But in 2 Timothy 2: 1-4, Paul talks about being a soldier for ...read more

    Metaphorically speaking, the clock is ticking away in the background. The countdown has begun. Gethsemane lies ahead: as does our Lord’s betrayal, trial and death.

    AND IT WAS NIGHT. John 13:21-32. As the Lord’s ‘hour’ drew near that He should depart out of this world, He turned His attention more and more to ‘His own’ (John 13:1). After the foot-washing and the teaching which immediately followed it, Jesus “was troubled in spirit” (John 13:21). ...read more
