    God speaks; more so in His Silence.....

    LET SILENCE SPEAK….. In 1 Kings 18 we find Israel in its pits. The people have broken their covenant with the Lord. The altars have been torn down. The Lord’s prophets decimated and Baal elevated as God of Israel by Ahab and Jezebel. It is at this juncture that a prophet of God, a ...read more

    From Grief To Joy

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,950 views

    For the disciples, the death of Jesus appeared to be the death of all their hopes and dreams, but those who lived through both Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday never doubted God again. Easter transformed them and the world.

    A Voice From The Beach

    Contributed by Martin Ellgar on Dec 29, 2014
     | 6,822 views

    A perspective on John 21: 1-14. Like the disciples in the boat who listened to the voice of a ‘stranger’ from the beach, somehow you too will know at the right time where to ‘cast the net.’ At that time, you too will say with joy, “It is the Lord.”

    John 21: 1-14 A Voice From The Beach The Gospel according to John closes with one more miracle given by Jesus. Although it is the final miracle recorded in the Gospel, it is the first of his resurrected life. It happened this way: Some of the disciples of Jesus were sitting about on the shore by ...read more

     | 5,664 views

    A perspective on Luke 15: 1-3, 11b-32. The loving father does he wait for a lengthy and rehearsed apology from his returning son. He sees him coming in the distance and with joy runs out to greet him. In this way he brings honour again to his son.

    Luke 15: 1-3, 11b-32 The God Who Runs God loves to have a party. He has been known to host the best and biggest celebrations in heaven whenever a sinner turns around from following their own desires and decides to come home to God.

    Do We Have A Clean House This Easter? Series

    Contributed by Guy Glass on Mar 12, 2010
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,700 views

    Jesus twice clean the temple. This message looks at "our house" and asks the question, "Is our house clean?" One interesting point is that the temple had become a den of thieves. Often our attitude robs ourselves or others from worship.

    EASTER SERIES 2010 Sermon #1 Do We Have A Clean House This Easter? Matthew 21:12-15 Matthew 21:12-15 Jesus entered the temple area and drove out all who were buying and selling there.
