    We can learn from John the Baptist in preparing for Christ coming: 1) Don’t follow the world; 2) Do follow the Word, in a) different lifestyle, b) forward outlook, and 3) constant repentance.

    A short talk given at our early morning communion service encouraging the congregation to enter into the jubilant high praise of Psalm 98

    ‘Shout for joy before the Lord the King’ (98:6)! Have you ever been in a crowd of people where the cheers, the noise, the celebration has been overwhelming? If you close your eyes can you imagine that moment? For me it would be the old Wembley Stadium when my beloved Gillingham ...read more

     | 5,417 views

    This Palm Sunday Jesus struggles with the Elders of the church, He struggles with Pilate, and finally he must struggle with his fate.

    Forgiveness Luke 23:34 Luke tells us about the passion of Jesus. He recounts in painful detail how Jesus stood before Pilate and Herod, was sentenced to death and was crucified and killed. Today’s story is all about struggle, not celebration. Passion not palms. A cross, not a crown. 1. ...read more

     | 3,295 views

    The events of Jesus' conception, birth, presentation at the temple, the shepherds and the Wisemen are all swirling around in Mary's head. What could they mean? Some seem contradictory. What does it mean that she treasured and pondered them in her heart?

    Read Luke 2:8-20 and Luke 2:41-52 (from an actual Bible!) What do these two accounts have in common? Luke 2:19, 51b (LEB) “But Mary treasured up all these words, pondering them in her heart.” “And [Jesus’] mother treasured all these things in her heart.” To ...read more

    Promises To Keep Before I Sleep

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 8, 2007
    based on 6 ratings
     | 3,980 views

    We find it difficult to keep promises because we are focused on dealing with today’s issues. We back off our commitments to God because they are hard, but we can receive help from accountability partners, and can know joy and fulfillment.

    To be a saint is not to be perfect; to be a saint is to be someone who makes promises and keeps them. Sainthood is not some magic status, conferred by the church for merit or miracles; sainthood is ordinary people living in extraordinary faithfulness, making promises and keeping them. Did you ...read more

    The Christmas Star and the infant Jesus appear insignificant to the human eye, but both in parallel have hidden power and might. The Apostle John explains how.

    Second passage reference Matt 2:1-12. The Gospel of Matthew tells us the story of the Magi, this group of astronomers from the East who follow a new star, and seek to find who the star belongs too. The Magi know that this star is not just any star, they know it is significant beyond anything they ...read more

     | 5,992 views

    Some tend to over emphasize Mary; while others tend to nearly dismiss her. What can we learn from Scriptures that show us the heart of Mary? Mary is indeed a good example for us to follow.

    Observing Mary Please stand as we read our newest memory Scripture together … Isaiah 9:6 “For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government shall be upon His shoulder.

    A woman was doing her last-minute Christmas shopping at a crowded mall. She was tired of fighting the crowds. She was tired of standing in lines.

     | 4,856 views

    The burial of Jesus is not merely incidental; although not as important as the other two points of the Gospel, it is something we need to contemplate and study.

    The Transition: What Happened Before the Resurrection? 1. Two men went hunting in Canada -- had a pilot take them to remote spot. They shot 6 elk. Pilot says, “We can’t fly with that many-- too heavy. We can only take three.” “Last year we had the same kind of plane and ...read more

    Behold The King: The Cross Before The Crown

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Mar 26, 2018
     | 6,586 views

    God’s desired will — with omissions and out of sequence — is no longer God’s will. The cross could not be bypassed. Jesus had to wear the crown of thorns before He could wear the crown of the Kingdom.

    Behold The King: The Cross Before the Crown (Various Portions of the Gospels) 1. One blogger writes, “Today, I was waiting at the bus stop and noticed a girl that I played netball with.
