Go! And… Live A Faith That Works Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Nov 18, 2025

Our Lord calls us to examine the difference between a belief that agrees with God in the mind, and a faith that trusts God with the whole life. A faith that sits in the wheelbarrow. A faith that works.

Go! And… Live a Faith That Works There is a story told of a tightrope walker who stretched a rope across Niagara Falls. Crowds gathered as he walked across with incredible skill. Then he took a wheelbarrow and pushed it across. The people cheered. He asked them, “Do you believe I can do it again ...read more

What’s Wrong With Religion? Series

Contributed by Paul Clemente on Sep 21, 2010

Please grab a Bible. This is how God directly speaks to us. Let’s start by looking at the Gospel of Luke chapter 21:1-4... Giving money to the church is the religious thing to do isn’t it?

The Cross Has Two Beams

Contributed by Eloy Gonzalez on Sep 4, 2009

Ordinary Proper 18: What is the relationship between saving faith and works of righteousness? Sometimes an inability to distinguish can create confusion. But we look to Saint James to answer the question!

There are vocations that endeavor to deal in certainty. Take engineering: I’m not certain that I would feel comfortable driving over a bridge designed by a person who simply ‘felt’ that their design would have integrity. I want somebody who will crunch the numbers and who understands beam and ...read more

What Kind Of Faith Series

Contributed by Dr. Jerry N. Watts on Jun 17, 2011

The question is this; what kind of faith do I have? James offers of 4 possibilities - 3 of which are no good.

What Kind of Faith James 2:14-26 * I suggest we live in the “MENU AGE.” That is to say, we desire to have a choice about anything we do. We drive up to McDonald’s, are asked “what would you like” only to say, “Wait a minute, let me look at the menu.” As a culture, we have decided that we ...read more

James 6 Right Attitudes Series

Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Oct 28, 2018

We put faith in action when we approach life with a right attitude about God’s will, life and work. The other truth I see in our texts today is where we live matters to God too and all this seems rooted in our attitude with God.

A Christian's Response During Covid19 Series

Contributed by Billy Paul on Apr 15, 2020

"When you are called to pray, don't act; And, when you are called to act, don't pray." At a time when our neighbours are groping in the dark, it is time Christians carry their lamp outside. Yes, with a lot of prayer backup too!

It wouldn’t be an understatement to say my recent video message (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXVol_ke76M) has created some stir within the protestant community in India. It was a short and simple message on how Christians across the globe can be a light in a world which is groping in the dark ...read more

Can't Have One Without The Other

Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Sep 5, 2015

Hopefully this sermon will explain that faith moves us to do good works. It also shows that it is our actions that count not just things we say and we should evaluate our spiritual lives regularly

We often pride ourselves in our work ethic, but we are addicted to work! This sermon takes a look at our need to find rest in the midst of a chaotic world and a myriad of responsibilities; using Jesus' practice of finding rest as our example.

IMMEDIACY IN MARK When we read the Gospel of Mark, we read a story moving at breakneck speed. Mark is the shortest gospel, and in it we don’t find a genealogy, or narratives from his childhood, or even much of a prelude before Jesus is baptized. And once he is baptized, it seems like he is ...read more
