    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,346 views

    The whole created order finds joy in the coming of Christ. It’s time we truly celebrated, either by doing something good for ourselves or by helping someone else.

    The psalm which we just read together was paraphrased many years ago by Archbishop Cranmer as a great hymn of praise, used for generations in the Church of England. Its Latin name is "Benedicite omnia opera": "Bless the Lord, all ye works of the Lord". This hymn is a long recitation of many of ...read more

    Flesh And Spirit: Love And Self-Control Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 20, 2009
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,325 views

    I preach expository messages, and this is the tenth in my series on the Book of Acts.

    “A Deadly Conspiracy” Acts 5:1-11 July 8, 2007 Note the honesty of the Bible, and of Luke as a historian.

    I have adapted a recent J. John’s sermon, using Scripture to compare Herod and our own sinful tendencies with the Dickens’ character Ebenezer Scrooge.

    The Scrooge in All of Us Matthew 2:13-18 Christmas is one of those times that almost demands that we be creative with the familiar- the story of Bethlehem, and the baby Jesus in a manger.

    If you and I have Jesus in common, our faith and love and passion for Christ will naturally be for each other as well.

    THE JOY OF BEING ONE I have a theory. It is a simple theory based on my observations of the Church. Here’s the theory: Put two people in the same room, leaving them alone, and in time they will find something to disagree about. I told you it was simple.
