    Jesus' sign of turning the water to wine reveals a bit of how he addresses our earthly and eternal needs.

    Introduction I have a problem. I don’t like things on my hands. As a result I wash my hands too often when I’m cooking. Now, you may not see that as a problem, after all, cross contamination of various foods is never good. But I do. The other day, Danielle and I were preparing dinner together. ...read more

    We live the life of faith when we continually look toward heaven as we face our earthly struggles.

    Look Toward Heaven Genesis 15:1-6 Introduction We live the life of faith when we continually look toward heaven as we face our earthly struggles. Abraham’s journey of faith began in Genesis 12, when God called him to leave his home and he promised: "I will make of you a great ...read more

     | 1,335 views

    To understand and embrace the fleeting nature of our earthly life, to live in Christ and not in the world, and to prepare for our eternal rest in Jesus.

    Good morning, family. Today, we're going to visit a somewhat overlooked gem in the Psalms, Psalm 39:1-13. This passage beautifully illustrates the transient nature of our life on Earth and the eternal promise of rest in the arms of our Savior, Jesus Christ. It's about embracing the gift of our dash ...read more

     | 1,896 views

    This sermon explores "Godfidence," the concept of placing our utmost trust and confidence in God, rather than in earthly authorities or ourselves.

    So good to see you all here today. We're about to get into a topic that's a little different, but one that's going to make a whole lot of sense once we get going. We're talking about "Godfidence" today. Now you might be wondering, "What's this Godfidence thing?" Well, hang tight, we're going to get ...read more

    Life In The Wilderness

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Feb 21, 2015
     | 9,199 views

    Lent is a time for us to loosen our grip on the ways of the world and draw nearer to God’s grace. It is a time for us as Christians to take a journey through the wilderness to the cross.

    How many of you like to read the articles in Reader’s Digest? Have you ever noticed that some of them are edited versions of articles that have been published elsewhere? Mark’s Gospel is similar to these articles because although his Gospel does include many of the same stories that are ...read more

    The Mind Of The Lord Series

    God transcends words. He is beyond language. We cannot reduce Him to our experience. God is unique and different from anything in this world. He is massive, boundless, beyond all imagining. God is His own category.

    I’d like to explain to you Who God is…but I can’t. Isaiah speaks of God as so massive, so far above us, that we can barely take in who He is. God surpasses human comprehension. Some people think they can put God “in a box”; that is, have Him fully figured out. How ...read more

    Every earthly kingdom has passed or is passing away. Only one thing “will endure forever” – as Daniel told King Nebuchadnezzar: the Kingdom of God.

    Seasons and Kingdoms: Stories of God’s People Daniel 2 July 2, 2006 Intro: (I’m indebted to Kent Berghuis and “theologywebsite.com” for some of the ideas for this sermon).

    The Apostle Paul, in Romans 13, gives us a clear command regarding our relationship with governing authorities. But what does it mean to submit? How do we balance obedience to rulers with our higher allegiance to God?

    Go! And Live as a Godly Citizen Introduction We live in a world filled with governments, laws, and authorities. As followers of Jesus, we are called to honour God in every aspect of our lives, including how we interact with earthly governments. The Apostle Paul, in Romans 13, gives us a clear ...read more

     | 6,585 views

    Jesus is the only baby ever born that had an earthly mother but no earthly father. He had a heavenly Father but no heavenly mother. He’s the only baby ever born who was older than his mother and the same age as his father. When Jesus was born the Bible sa

    Is the virgin birth necessary? Luke 1: 26 - 38 11/15/06 The birth of a baby is nothing unusual. But the Bible says when Jesus was born He was born of a virgin.

    The Camel Squeezed Out From Tail To Snout

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Oct 10, 2007
     | 2,938 views

    Jesus call to discipleship is a call of sacrifice. Anything that stands in the way of answering that call must be deserted. This truth is shown through the encounter of Jesus with the rich young ruler.

    Little did I know when I planned this sermon, that we would have a live camel at VBS this year. At any rate, I want to tell you a story. It is the story of the ill-fated Franklin expedition to the Arctic in 1845. That odyssey was a turning point in Arctic exploration because of its well-publicized ...read more
