    #7 -- Joy Series

    Contributed by Derek Melanson on Nov 17, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 19,257 views

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

    Contributed by Derek Melanson on Nov 17, 2006
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,198 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

    based on 7 ratings
     | 10,950 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
     | 9,121 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.

    Contributed by Derek Melanson on Nov 17, 2006
    based on 11 ratings
     | 11,722 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!

    Contributed by Derek Melanson on Nov 17, 2006
    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,574 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
     | 14,236 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

    Contributed by Derek Melanson on Dec 19, 2006
    based on 14 ratings
     | 14,211 views

    Living in unity means living as a priesthood consecrated to encourage one another in the path of faith--therein lies God’s blessing.

    “Songs for the Road #14: Unity” Psalm 133, Ephesians 4: 1 – 6 Brotherly Unity? Psalm 133 talks about brothers (and sisters!) getting along and enjoying a sense of unity.

    based on 44 ratings
     | 26,564 views

    God’s favour means He uses the ordinary, involves adversity, requires obedience, gives us purpose, and provides hope.

    Introduction We’ve all done someone a favour. And we’ve all asked for favours. We all have favourite foods, music, places to visit, etc. We talk about favourable weather and favourable circumstances. To use a negative example, some parents play favourites with their children. When we use these ...read more

    based on 14 ratings
     | 16,530 views

    “Songs for the Road #15: Blessing” Psalm 134 This is our last song for the road—we’ve reached the end of the journey. What does the end look like? The end looks like Psalm 134. And this Psalm really sums up what the Christian is all about in some ways. It summarizes God’s grace and our ...read more

    based on 21 ratings
     | 24,704 views

    Joy is a gift from God, is never experienced without challenges, and is something we are called upon to share.

    “An Impossible Joy” Luke 1: 39 – 45 Introduction A few weeks ago I heard on the news that there were impossibly huge line-ups as the new Sony Play Station came into stores.

    This is a brief ten minute sermon preached at a funeral and it focuses on how Jesus is the One we need to focus on during the inevitable storms we face in life.

    “The Storms of Life” Matthew 14: 22 – 33 The first thing I want to say is that storms are inevitable.
