    The Credible Christian Church Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Dec 3, 2002
    based on 25 ratings
     | 7,415 views

    The Credible Christian church will be characterised by unity, humility, gentleness, patience and peace. Our primary task is to proclaim the gospel to the ends of the earth and our success will depend on our credibility.

    If you were here 2 weeks ago you may remember that I posed the question, ’What is the church here for?’ That might sound like a straightforward question at first, but I think you’ll find if you ask a range of people what they think the Church should be doing, you’ll get a range of answers. Now ...read more

    Amos - The Amateur But Authentic Prophet Series

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Jun 16, 2001
    based on 95 ratings
     | 12,639 views

    Amos was an Amateur but Authentic Prophet who faithfully delivered God’s message to Israel, clashing with the culture and church of his day, with a vital message for the church of all ages.

    AMOS - THE AMATEUR BUT AUTHENTIC PROPHET Amos had no intention of becoming a prophet. He’d never attended "the schools of the prophets" that were the conventional launch of a prophetic ministry. In fact he was a sheep breeder and a fig-tree grower who lived about 2,800 years ago in the Judean ...read more

    Slippery Rocks

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 15, 2003
    based on 8 ratings
     | 4,154 views

    Even the fundamentals of our faith -- the Bible, prayer, the church, spiritual experience -- can become slippery, unsure. The way to certainty is through obedience.

    Although generally I stay away from stories that begin, “There were a Baptist minister, a Catholic priest, and a Jewish rabbi,” today I’ll make an exception. Sometimes you just have to be corny to get your point across. So, sure enough, there were a Baptist minister, a Catholic priest, and a ...read more

    Part 5. Hearing God’s voice through circumstances and other Christians.

    Does God speak to people today? Indeed God does speak to us. Perhaps speak isn’t the term we should use, perhaps communicate is a better one. God communicates to us because God wants us to know him better, he wants us to follow him where he leads so he can bless us and we can experience him ...read more

    Taken from Ephesians 1, this series delves into the riches that we know through our relationship with Christ.

    After 13 years, I feel it’s time to come clean, to be vulnerable, to share some deep secrets with this congregation. So here goes: • My first childhood crush was Agent 99. • The first time I was on a TV game show was when I was in 6th grade—but it wasn’t the last. • My nickname in high school was ...read more

    The Case For The Resurrection

    Contributed by Austin Mansfield on Jun 3, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,628 views

    The evidence for the resurrection is overwhelming. And it’s so important to our faith. If God the Father can’t raise his own sinless Son then he can’t raise us either. But the resurrection is true. And we can prove it beyond any doubt.

    SERMON: The Case for Resurrection (Psalm 19:14) May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to you, Lord, my rock and my redeemer. Amen. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Two school children were walking together, and one said to the ...read more
