    Our failures do not define us, but rather, they are opportunities for growth and deeper faith, and through the love and grace of Jesus Christ, we can rise above them and follow Him with courage and commitment.

    Good morning, church family! Today we're going to get real about something we've all faced - the sting of failure. Now, failure isn't something we like to talk about, especially in a church setting. We often feel like we have to put on a façade of perfection, but the reality is, we all stumble and ...read more

    God gave him dreams and as these dreams kind of guided him in the beginning, later on he gets thrown in a cistern and he’s taken off to Egypt.

    Well I’m excited today because today we get to start the story of Joseph. Now the story of Joseph is a story that takes up a quarter of the book of Genesis from chapter 37 all the way to the end. More than a quarter of the whole book. So we’re going to spend some time learning about Joseph. We ...read more

     | 4,660 views

    This is a very courageous sermon for my congregation, but the most powerful member of the Godhead, the Holy Spirit is working us within, and yet we struggle to believe it. How important therefore is the Holy Spirit in our lives?

    This sermon was delivered to St Oswald’s in Maybole, Ayrshire, Scotland on the 10th January 2016; St Oswalds is a Scottish Episcopal Church in the Dioceses of Glasgow and Dumfries.

    How A Church Can Change For The Better

     | 40,620 views

    In this message, we explore five paradigm shifts that a church can make to have a better future. This is a kind of "halftime" talk from a pastor/coach to the congregation/team.

    To compete for a championship, during a game a great team has to make some adjustments. I sometimes think of the New Year as a kind of halftime. My personal internal calendar starts in August when the kids go back to school. The first semester is over. Now, it’s the halftime before the second ...read more

    In this passage .... Thomas ... is struggling with his lack of faith. .... I want you to think about how the Gospel of John mentions Thomas in three different ways, Thomas the courageous believer, Thomas the inquisitive and Thomas the doubter.

    THE DOUBTING THOMAS IN US (Easter season) Text: John 20:19-31 John 20:19-31  When it was evening on that day, the first day of the week, and the doors of the house where the disciples had met were locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with ...read more

    Gaining inspiration and courage from the words of Jesus on the cross. In our world of darkness, Jesus calls us to be light-bearers. It is through our trials and disappointments that we are enabled to step in among those who are struggling and hurting.

    The Curse Of Hidden Sins

     | 22,740 views

    Many are under the misconception that they can get away with trying to hide their sin from God. The story of Achan illustrates the fallacy of that kind of thinking.

    THE CURSE OF HIDDEN SINS Prov. 28:13 INTRO. You will never get by with covered-up sin. Sin that is unconfessed, sin that is unlamented, sin with an alibi, sin that is excused, sin with no self-judgement, is certain to bring the wrath of a holy and righteous and angry God!
