He was a bit puzzled by this and said, "you don’t seem to understand. I’m a Hindu." But undeterred, his questioner said, "Yes I ...read more

     | 5,150 views

    Our priority must be to put God first, and if we do, then he’ll look after us.

    It’s appropriate to ask, on the day of our AGM, how committed are you to the work of God here at St Theodore’s? It’s a question that we all need to consider as we come to look at Haggai ch 1. If you’ve been here over the last month or so, you’ll know that we’ve been working our way through ...read more

    Christ is not only the provider of all our needs, He Himself is the Provision.

    (Read 1-14) The feeding of the five thousand is an account from the ministry of Jesus with which most, if not all, of us are very familiar.

    Herod issues an order that all little boys two years old & younger in Bethlehem are to be murdered. In horror, we wonder how anyone could have reacted that way to a baby’s birth.

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK (Revised: 2014) A.

    MELVIN NEWLAND,MINISTER CENTRAL CHRISTIAN, BROWNSVILLE, TX ILL. I like the story about a rather legalistic Seminary student who wanted to have a scriptural basis for everything he did. He felt he was on solid ground if he could quote Bible book, chapter & verse to ...read more

    Jesus cares far more that many actually realize

    When good things happen to us, we are all too ready to praise Him for His loving care. A. Certainly this is right. 1. Nobody has to force us to recognize the hand of the Lord, in this blessing. B. Most of us are not really that quick to recognize that God loves and cares for ...read more
