    If we are going to have the power of the Holy Spirit in operation in our lives, we must first get "plugged in", "turned on" and "fired up" with Jesus.

     | 8,810 views

    This sermon addresses the big picture of the issue of speaking in tongues. The author is not a Pentecostal.

    Q1: What is the speaking in tongues that Paul is discussing here? - In Acts, the gift of tongues was the gift of being able to speak in a foreign language. The disciples were miraculously given the ability to communicate in languages that they didn’t understand. This was a mighty sign for ...read more

    Many Christians are not experiencing Pentecost for a number of reasons, but perhaps the greatest reason is because they are unaware of how rich and powerful it would make their lives.

    THE POWER OF PENTECOST Last week we looked at THE PURPOSE OF PENTECOST and we found that it is much more than exciting music and a motivational message. Pentecost will certainly: • Bring to us more of God’s power to live our daily lives, • Take us to a higher place of worship, • Cause us to ...read more

    Jesus Needs A Break! (Mark 7:24-37)

    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,541 views

    Jesus Needs a Break! Depictions of Christ suffering on the cross are common in Christian literature and iconography. Few though are the depictions of Jesus walking around..

    Our Gospel reading this morning is from Mark chapter 7, where we come across a Jesus who is tired - tired, I think, to the point of exhaustion. This is not the sort of depiction of Jesus that is given much attention by the church. I’ve never seen a stained-glass window with an image of Jesus ...read more
