    This Sermon is about allowing God’s word to flow into our lives causing our faith to increase.

    "My Heart's Desire" (Romans 10:1-14) -Rev. A. Torrence, Pastor Cross of Life Lutheran Church The one characteristic that I admired about the apostle Paul is his sense of passion. Paul was man of passion. What ever he set his mind to do, Paul was earnest enough to bring it to reality with fervor. ...read more

    Your Life Direction From The Lord

    Peter thought he knew Jesus' direction. He did not. Do you know your life direction? Ask the LORD.

    Peter thought that he knew what the LORD’s plan was for the restoration of Israel. When Yeshua said that he would die at the hands of the Hebraic leadership, Peter was compelled to say, “not going to happen.” How many people today believe that they know what the LORD’s plan is? Many Christians ...read more

    Honouring Our Parents

    Contributed by Michael Stark on May 14, 2017
     | 7,180 views

    Christian children are instructed to honour their parents. This is one of the few direct commands to children in the congregation. I fear this command is neglected among the faithful today. The message is a study of what the Apostle wrote.

    “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. ‘Honour your father and mother’ (this is the first commandment with a promise), ‘that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land.’” [1] The last days are described in frightful detail in Paul’s final letter to ...read more

    Worshipping From The Heart Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Dec 14, 2017
    based on 2 ratings
     | 20,922 views

    Worship flows out of our revelation of God, our experiences in God, and our gratitude for His goodness. These matters must be addressed when we seek to enhance our worship experience. Otherwise the experience can become artificial and contrived.

    01.22.17 Intro How do we move into a higher level of worship—in our personal lives and corporately as a church? Answering that question is more complex that you might think. But it is extremely important to find answers to the question. If I were to ask for a show of hands this morning, how many ...read more

    INTRO. Many times in life we encounter things that are indeed very hard to handle.

    This Palm Sunday, we’re continuing through our study on what a Christian heart looks like, with one of the most important aspects that should be at the heart of every Christian. And that is a forgiving heart. This is followed by just how vital having a forgiven and forgiving heart is.

    Hearts Of Stone Series

     | 3,990 views

    There are several places in the Bible where God has promised to give us new hearts … hearts for Him alone … but in order for Him to give us new hearts, hearts of flesh, hearts for Him alone, He has to break our hearts of stone.

    [Note: The theme for this Lenten series is "stone." I have stones at the church and each week the people are asked to pick up a stone and hold it during the service and then place it at the foot of a wooden cross placed at the front of the sanctuary. Each stone has a meaning. On the ...read more

     | 7,048 views

    Our heart is the “vital centre” of our being – everything flows from our heart. In order to love God with “all our heart” we need to allow the Gospel to cut to our heart and bring our naturally deceitful heart into alignment with the heart of God.

    Message Mark 12:30 All Your Heart Over the next five weeks the sermons are going to focus on two verses of Scripture. Mark 12:30-31 30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.” 31 The second is this: “Love your neighbour ...read more

    If we are to have genuine revival with the power of God flowing through us we must first have broken hearts – broken over our personal sin, the sins of the saints, and the sin of the world.

    BROKEN HEARTS PSALM 34:11-18 INTRODUCTION: Heart is used in Scripture as the most comprehensive term for the authentic person. It is the part of our being where we desire, deliberate, and decide. It has been described as "the place of conscious and decisive spiritual activity, the comprehensive ...read more
