  • What God Can Do With A Happy Meal!

    Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 25, 2016
     | 9,860 views

    Often we feel like our resources are inadequate. "There's no way God can use me." But we find that God delights to use weak things because it redirects people to Him. Little is much when God is in it.

    WHAT GOD CAN DO WITH A HAPPY MEAL John 6:1-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Euphemisms of a low IQ 1. Elevator doesn’t reach the top floor; 2. 2 bubbles shy of a bubble bath; 3. Not playing with a full desk; 4. Few French fries short of a Happy Meal; 5. Light’s on but nobody’s ...read more

    God has given us so much! This sermon challenges us to take action in our world as a sign of God’s kingdom breaking in, and as a response of thankfulness to God.

    When I look at the wonderful variety of fruit and vegetables that we can grow, I find myself saying, “Thank you God!” A few years ago in Portugal I remember looking out to sea and being amazed at the sight of the sun setting over the ocean and saying, “Thank you God”; and I remember the first time ...read more

    based on 46 ratings
     | 6,225 views

    Too many times peopele, including Christians, fill their lives with all of their wants and desires and then try to fit Jesus into the room that is left. God said to seek first His Kingdom. We should strive to conform to His mold for our lives.

In the skit that our young people just performed we see that Jesus wasn’t very cooperative with their ideas about Him or about how He should act 1.

  • The River That Flowed From The Temple In Jerusalam

    Contributed by Revd. Martin Dale on Mar 27, 2020
     | 8,901 views

    In Ezekiel 47, The prophet receives a vision of the River flowing from the Temple and he is invited to cross the River at various crossing. What does each crossing signify.

    Ezekiel 47: 1-12 I love this passage of Scripture, not least because in Ezekiel’s time there was no river in the City of Jerusalem and so it would be impossible for a river to flow from the Temple. You may well say to me, not so. And I will concede that in 2011, while Jerusalem was in the ...read more

    Jesus said we should love our enemies. But I don't even like them, why should I even want to show them love?

    OPEN: I’ve always loved limericks, and years ago I ran across this one: “There once were 2 cats from Kilkenny Each thought there was one cat too many They fought and they spit, and they clawed and they bit. Till instead of two cats (pause) there weren't any.” (Pulpit Helps 3/97 p. 8) Now that ...read more
