    How do we buy into the lame excuses we offer without crumbling under the internal conflict we generate from living in ways that are contrary to what we say we believe? The truth is, it all comes down to the way we view the world – it comes down to what f

    I want to tell you a story this morning – a funny, yet strangely disturbing story. The setting was a small group retreat with a bunch of teenage boys – I was one of the leaders. We’d had a really good weekend; sharing our faith stories, digging into the Scriptures, spending time ...read more

    Like Mephibosheth we were crippled, expecting death, but we come to the presence of the KING and receive mercy and grace. Come and Eat.

    Come to the Table 2 Samuel 9:1-11 1 John 3:1- “How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!” The Bible seems to abound in difficult names- names like “Ne-bu-chad-nez-zar” and ...read more

    The accounts of the last supper sound more like the last snack. This message looks at what all happened that night.

    Do you ever feel that you’ve only heard half the story? It’s kind of frustrating isn’t it? You wonder what else might have gone on and what you’ve missed. That’s what happens when we read the accounts of the Last Supper, it doesn’t matter if it’s one of the accounts in one of the four gospels or ...read more

  • Praise Is Comely

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 21, 2009
    based on 7 ratings
     | 17,014 views

    The King James Version word "comely" helps us see that praise and worship fit the reality of today’s world, but are attractive to those who need perspective by which to live.

    Our members will know that I seldom use the King James Version of the Scriptures, except on certain occasions when the majesty and beauty of its language are desirable. We are a church which is generally committed to contemporary readings of the Bible because they are more accurate and are easier ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,877 views

    The times, like those of post-Exilic Jerusalem, require us to wait. Will it be passive, impassive, or active waiting? Active waiting means seeing that what God has done He will do again. God will enlist us and shape us to work for His purposes.

    “We wait. We are bored. No, don’t protest, we are bored to death, there’s no denying it. … A diversion comes along and what do we do? We let it go to waste . . . .In an instant all will vanish and we’ll be alone once more, in the midst of nothingness!” So speaks one of the characters in Samuel ...read more

    Following Christ involves ’being’ not just ’doing’.

    Men seem to be wired to describe who we are in terms of our jogs. Women describe themselves in terms of relationships. These aren’t’ good or bad they simply are. In the song, Lose My Soul, Kirk Franklin questions this notion of our identity when he sings, "The paparazzi flashes and that they think ...read more
