Koinonia Of Worship Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Dec 14, 2017

This message is a call to pursue God's presence during a worship service. New Testament Christianity calls for our participation. We must be careful our "worship" service doesn't become a performance with an audience. We want everyone engaging in worship.

Trying Times - “it Should've Took Out Your Whole Family” Series

Contributed by Dr. Gale A. Ragan-Reid on Jul 21, 2013

A time of reflection, in sowing and reaping, not knowing what value will sow and what value will reap, for vanity rules to counter-produce, as observed and experienced by preachers as they toil in the work of Christ Jesus, planting the seed of faith.

Give Us Today The Food That We Need

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Nov 11, 2012

A short talk from a series on the Lord's Prayer at our evening service. To pray, "Give us today our daily bread" is to recognise that God is the giver. It may also require us to be part of the answer to other people's prayers as per James 2:15-16.

The Lord’s Prayer is the model for prayer taught by Jesus. It is the skeleton, the frame, upon which we build when we pray. Yes, we can and do pray it word for word, but if we think the Lord’s Prayer is like a fixed recipe, or worse, if we think this model prayer is like a spell, or ...read more

To Sin Or Not To Sin, That Is The Question? Series

Contributed by Andrew Moffatt on Mar 25, 2011

Peak Of Popularity Passes In Galilee Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Aug 16, 2017

Because Christ told them that they must labor for the food He spoke of, they enquired what they must do. What they want to know is what works can we do better or more of, than those we do in obedience to the Law of Moses.
