    A look at God as our hero from Isaiah 9:6 and Zephaniah 3:16-20.

    I don’t know what it was but for some reason when I was on vacation I just started to notice some of the weirdest things. I saw a sign in a restaurant that read, “This is a drug-free work place.” Really? Was that a change in policy? Was there a time when the sign could have said, “The whole ...read more

    I have a confession to make. I haven’t eaten a tasty store-bought or restaurant-made pizza since coming to Canada. The crusts are consistently too dry or too doughy. The pepperoni is too greasy and too salty. And the pizza sauce is too sweet. It’s not as bad as the pizza I had in ...read more

    The call to unity extends to relationships within a Church fellowship, between Church fellowships, between different expressions of Church. Jesus prayed for unity. Will we cooperate with him to work for that unity? Since he prayed it what will we do about

    What is the difference between a spotlight and a laser beam? Why is it that a medium-powered laser can burn through steel in a matter of seconds, while the most powerful spotlight can only make it warm? Both may have the same electrical power requirements. The difference is unity! Now forgive me I ...read more

    If we want to see people come to Christ we need to be able to walk the talk. And that may mean SACRAFICIAL LIVING (no I didn’t saying GIVING!)

    The plan of God for all of us, especially clergy, is a call to service and understanding, not tyranny.

    Solemnity of the Epiphany 2012 Diaconate Vocation Spirit of the Liturgy “Where is the newborn king of the Jews?” the Magi said to Herod. It was a straightforward question to the wrong guy.

     | 6,026 views

    The USA culture is in trouble - and the reason is, for the most part, the church culture in the USA is in trouble. The calling for followers of Christ and the Church of Christ is to show Jesus so the world can KNOW Jesus. This message speaks to our call

    Our Calling for Tomorrow Philippians 3:1-15 * Over the past couple of weeks I have digested large portion of written material by a 20th century preacher/prophet/revivalist named Leonard Ravenhill. He was indeed a man, the likes of which we have not seen in many years. Witnesses say that when he ...read more

    Their white garments, and golden crowns seem to indicate that these 24 represent the redeemed. The question is which redeemed? Not Israel because they aren’t saved until near the end. Not the unsaved because that happens after the 7 year tribulation.

    Call it Anything but Boring Revelation 4:1-11NKJ After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven. And the first voice which I heard was like a trumpet speaking with me, saying, “Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this.” 2 ...read more

    When God calls, don't hit the snooze button.

    Probably the hardest part of writing a sermon is the beginning. If I don’t catch your attention right away, I could lose half of you.

    Every Christian is called by God. If we would “walk worthily” of our calling then we must be faithful and true to what God has saved us for, and called us to be.

     | 11,198 views

    JAMES 2:5-7 GOD’S CALL TO THE POOR [1 Corinthians 1:26-27] Preferential treatment of the rich is wrong. James makes his case that biased judgment is wrong through four rhetorical questions he will ask, expecting an affirmative answer. Those who have entered into a faith relationship with Jesus ...read more
