    It is SO hard to find "the one" out in the dating world. Likewise... we try so hard to find "the one" thing in this world that will fill us. It's time to meet "the one" who can truly fill us!

    An Easter sermon preached 4/4/2010 at St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Big Cove Tannery and Mt. Zion Lutheran Church, Little Cove (Late service). It talks about the importance of the resurrection.

    Christ is Risen, He is Risen indeed! Alleluia! These are words that are so ingrained into us as 21st century Christians, that we almost recite them every Easter without much of a thought. Christ is Risen! Indeed, He is. But would you have believed that good news if you were at the empty tomb ...read more

    Contrast the thieves on the crosses; from Jesus they had, or could have had, salvation, assurance, companionship, things which no thief can steal.

Two of these hapless three were thieves, and as thieves they had lived by the law of the thief: namely, easy come, easy go. If you take ...read more

    After the resurrection a group of disciples ended up fishing. When Jesus turns up 153 fish are caught. Through these verses we are reminded that we need to obey Jesus, even when obedience seems strange, because Jesus will give the resources.
