  • Waiting....a Centering Excercise

    Contributed by Derek Noorman on Dec 8, 2012
     | 4,130 views

    With three powerful words, "Let it be...," Mary goes from Nazerene poor girl to highly exalted mother of our Lord Jesus Christ. But Mary's words also give us a different perspective on our own waiting.

    Prayer for Illumination: Lord we bring ourselves to your word this morning, And we ask that you would speak to us that we might hear your words. Unstop our ears to listen, Chase the thoughts of tasks unfinished and tasks yet to do from our minds, Open our hearts to be responsive to your ...read more

    The Christian journey begins with repentance.

    Songs for the Road Have you ever gone on a long road trip? We all know that when we’re getting ready for such a trip there’s a number of things we have to do, especially with our cars. We make sure we check the oil. We check the tires. We check the window washer fluid. We fill the gas tank. We get ...read more

     | 8,335 views

    We are called to look beyond this world to the Lord--he is always our help.

    All Problems Solved? Last week we looked at our first song for the road, the first of the Psalms of Ascent – and it was one that got us going on the road of faith by reminding us of the need to repent. It wasn’t the happiest psalm. But it was an important one. It set things in perspective. It ...read more

    Three reasons why we are called to worship together as God’s people.

    Why Do We Worship Together? Today every one of us got out of bed and got ready and came to this church to spend our morning singing hymns and songs, to pray together, to listen to God’s word, and to share fellowship with one another. And this is happening right now at churches all across our ...read more

    based on 6 ratings
     | 14,636 views

    We are each called to serve one another out of the love for the Lord, not the praise of people.

    Introduction Have this ever happened to you: You went what you thought was out of your way to do something for someone and your efforts went completely unnoticed? They simply took what you’ve done for granted. Have you ever done a good deed and not been thanked or recognized? Worse, have you ever ...read more

  • #5 -- Help Series

    Contributed by Derek Melanson on Nov 10, 2006
    based on 15 ratings
     | 20,041 views

    God helps those who rely not on themselves but on Him.

    “God helps those who help themselves” Have you ever heard the expression, “God helps those who help themselves”? What does this saying mean? Does it mean that God only helps those who can help themselves? At the very least this saying seems to suggest to me that we can help ourselves somewhat. It ...read more

     | 25,929 views

    It is in God that we find and have security.

    A Secure World? Do you think we live in a secure world? If you don’t, you’re not alone. And let’s face it, there isn’t much reason to feel secure about our world. The conflict in the Middle East has reached what is likely an uneasy ceasefire. British authorities recently discovered, and thankfully ...read more

  • #7 -- Joy Series

    Contributed by Derek Melanson on Nov 17, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 19,318 views

    Having joy is not dependent on circumstances but comes from God, is Jesus-specific, and something that we are called to practice.

    Introduction: A Joyless World As we continue listening to these songs for the road, we come to a song of joy. To begin I want to read a couple of quotes about joy. C.S. Lewis once said this: “We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition, when infinite joy is offered ...read more

  • #8 -- Work Series

    Contributed by Derek Melanson on Nov 17, 2006
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,215 views

    Work is given to us by God, is done in vain apart from Him, and can be a means of worship--because God calls us to trust Him so that we do not find ourselves eating the bread of "anxious toil."

    The reality of work Just imagine—it’s the end of a morning or afternoon or evening of hard work, and you’re very, very tired. But you look around your house, and the floors are swept and clean, the dishes are done, the laundry folded and put away, and even the bathroom fixtures are sparkling; and ...read more

  • #9 -- Happiness Series

    based on 7 ratings
     | 10,984 views

    True happiness comes not from seeking our own happiness but from seeking the happiness of others.

    The Endless Pursuit of Happiness I don’t know how many of you have read the American Declaration of Independence, but it says this: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,144 views

    As followers of Jesus, we should expect to face opposition, but we can trust that God has "cut the cords of the wicked."

    Introduction Pastor Eugene Peterson tells a story from his childhood—a story about having to deal with enemies. For him it came in the form a school bully who beat him up every day after school. It seemed no matter how young Eugene tried to avoid him—in the forms of alternate routes and ...read more

  • #11 -- Sin Series

    Contributed by Derek Melanson on Nov 17, 2006
    based on 11 ratings
     | 11,754 views

    We need acknowledge our sin for what it is and let this bring us before God, we need to realize that only God can forgive and restore, and that we do this right now--there is no need to wait, for God is waiting for us!

    Introduction There is a story about the late American President Calvin Coolidge going to church on a Sunday when his wife was unable to attend with him. When he returned from the service in the afternoon she wanted to know what the pastor preached about. Coolidge told her, “Sin.” Thinking that ...read more

  • #12 -- Humility Series

    Contributed by Derek Melanson on Nov 17, 2006
    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,621 views

    Jesus teaches us three things about humility: it starts at the bottom, it grows out of gratitude, and it is an act of faith.

    “Oh, it’s hard to be humble . . .!” Have you ever heard that little tune, “Oh, it’s hard to be humble, when you’re prefect in every way?” It’s a little tune I remember from growing up. And I read a couple of stories this week that sort of illustrate this song very well. The first was about Henry ...read more

    based on 18 ratings
     | 14,260 views

    Our God is a covenant-God, not a contract-God, and the covenant that He had made with us is based on His character and is embodied in an unconditional commitment. It is on the basis of His covenant with us, through the blood of Jesus Christ, that we as a

    Introduction: Making Vows Our passage, Psalm 132, is the longest of the Psalms of Ascent. While most of these 15 psalms are less than 10 verses long, and with some having as few as 3 verses, Psalm 132 has 18 verses. And on the surface it reads like the most complicated of the bunch. It’s the only ...read more
