  • The First Advent Tree

    Contributed by Dennis Mardis on Dec 7, 2005

    Was that first tree in the Garden a mistake, or always a part of the plan

    Introduction There have been some big changes in our sanctuary since last Sunday. What catches your attention the most? For some it is the glow of the advent wreath candles, or the arrangements in the windows but for me, hands down, it’s the tree. For my money there is nothing like a tree. When ...read more

  • Good As Dead - Advent

    Contributed by Peter Loughman on Dec 8, 2006
    based on 10 ratings
     | 10,482 views

    Advent. It is hard to do an orignial John the Baptist advent sermon isn’t it? I give it a go. Our life circumstances do not determine the validty of who Jesus is. Also, John 1:6-9, 15-16,19-23.

    There are starting to be more movies with biblical themes coming out – the Nativity is the latest. I was thinking…Disney Studios might jump on the bandwagon and produce a biblically oriented film. I think there are many stories they could choose from….but you know Disney has a habit of changing the ...read more

    John's message of repentance is still as true for us today as it was 2000 years ago!

    Grace, mercy and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. We have entered into a time when rational thinking, reasonableness, honesty, truth, and even humility is considered substandard; considered to be the enemy of progressiveness, seen as distasteful even. We live in ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,100 views

    This message looks at what it means to "carry Christ into Christmas" by looking at the oft-neglected story of Mary’s visit to Elizabeth in Luke’s Gospel.

    “Isn’t there anyone who knows what Christmas is all about?” So cries an exasperated Charlie Brown in the classic A Charlie Brown Christmas. Amid the commercialism, the materialism and the general confusion of the holiday, Charlie Brown seeks merely to understand. Understanding has been our goal ...read more

    This is the second week of our Advent series 2010

    Luke 2:8-18 8 And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. 9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good ...read more

  • Advent: The Tenderness Of God

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,761 views

    The arm of God rules, and the arms of God are tender.

    These are words of comfort for a rejected and downcast people. They are words of comfort for a sinful people; for God’s people. They are words of comfort! “Comfort, comfort my people, says your God” (40:1). Are you and I prepared to be instruments of God’s comfort to rejected people, instruments ...read more

    John the baptiser called for believers to repent. This sermon asks what we need to repent of, reminds us we need to turn back to God, and calls for preparation for what God has for us this next year.

    If you were going to describe the time 20 years ago in 1989 when the Churches of the town worked together to plan and produce Festival 89 I wonder what you would say. More specifically, if you were going to date the time and the place and the event without naming the date I wonder what you would ...read more

  • Advent: Recognizing Jesus

    Contributed by Peter Loughman on Dec 15, 2009
    based on 2 ratings
     | 7,384 views

    To truly recognize Jesus we need to: Identify who Jesus is; Acknowledge who Jesus is; Approve of who Jesus is; and Give Tribute to Jesus, for who he is.

    He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. The world did not recognize him. For us as Americans when we use the word recognize, we generally use it in the sense of identification. “I was driving to Costco and this quickly car passed me up. I ...read more

     | 3,347 views

    during this Advent season, are we awaiting the birth of Jesus or his second coming?

    Matthew 11:2-11 The Season of Advent can be a very confusing time for some people: • on one hand, we all wait with wide-eyes for the birth of the Christ child • on the other, we are waiting for the second Coming of Jesus at the end of the world. Indeed a major part of the Christian faith ...read more

    what are we waiting for during Advent

    Matthew 11:2-11 Now when John the Baptist was in prison heard about the activities of Christ, he sent word by his disciples and asked Him, “Are You the Expected One (the Messiah), or should we look for someone else who will be the promised One?” Jesus answered, “Go and report to John what you hear ...read more

    ISAAC AND ISHMAEL. Galatians 4:21-31. 1. The History. The history of Ishmael and Isaac is the history of the struggle between flesh and spirit, between the carnal seed and the spiritual seed, between the world's way and God's way. In the first place, Abraham had faith. The LORD ...read more

  • A Place Of Security For The People Of God

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Mar 20, 2016
    based on 6 ratings
     | 6,046 views

    Jesus speaks in no uncertain terms of the status of those who continue in unbelief, and the security of His own sheep.

    A PLACE OF SECURITY FOR THE PEOPLE OF GOD. John 10:22-30. Place is perhaps as important as time in this text. It was winter, and Jesus was walking under the shelter of Solomon’s Colonnade in the Temple (John 10:22-23). This was evidently a part of the original Temple which had remained ...read more

  • Amazing Faith Of A Centurion

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,118 views

    I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel (Luke 7:9).

    AMAZING FAITH OF A CENTURION. Luke 7:1-10. It is interesting to note that, in this busy little cameo, two of the main characters remain offstage throughout. In Luke’s record, the incident takes place immediately after the Sermon on the Plain (Luke 6:17-49). Jesus had said all He was going to say ...read more
