    I believe that many times Christians will know what it means to be a follower of Jesus, and they may rightfully call themselves Christians. And yet some people may not sense a connection with God.

    Let’s begin tonight by giving thanks to what the Lord has been doing in each of our lives. I know that it is God that is doing these things. We are dependent on the Lord and His stirring our hearts. We can study, and train, and discuss what needs to be done and what should be done, but it will ...read more

    Phrase two of the Creed, "And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord."

    JESUS, THE SON TEXT: Matt. 3:13-17; 2 Sam. 7:11b - 16 For those of you just tuning in, we have begun a look at one of the ancient maps of the Christian faith, the Apostles’ Creed.

    Though we do not have a photo of Jesus, but in these verses we have several word pictures that describe just who the man Jesus really is.

    SEEING JESUS Hebrews 2:5-18 On one occasion certain Greeks approached one of the twelve disciples and said, "Sir, We would see Jesus." Certainly that ought to be the desire of every one of us as we gather to worship our Lord. As the song says, "Open my eyes Lord, I want to see Jesus...." ...read more

    Jesus going away did not mean the end of the mission to which his followers were called

    John 14:8-17 Clip from Mission Impossible 2 at beginning where he accepts the mission. Remember Jesus spending his last night with disciples before the crucifixion: already told them he’s going away, after three years the time is coming when he won’t be with them anymore.

    Until that day when we shall see Him "face to face", we can marvel at the scriptural picture of the face of our Lord Jesus recorded in the Word of God.

    THE FACE OF JESUS “Now it came to pass, when the time had come for Him to be received up, that He steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem, and sent messengers before His face. And as they went, they entered a village of the Samaritans, to prepare for Him. But they did not receive Him, because ...read more

    We may have been saved from evil, but each of us must take care not to fall prey to foolishness.

    FOLLOWING JESUS There have been times in my life that I have made the mistake of doing things my way. I have always known to “wait on the Lord”, but there are times when we all want to do things on our own. No doubt this is one of the biggest mistakes any one of us could ever make. What we ...read more

    Today I would like us to do two things: (1) to try and understand some of Jesus’ difficult sayings about discipleship; and (2) to share a couple of introductory reflections on discipleship.

    By Rev Bill Stewart As Chris mentioned last Sunday, today we are officially beginning a series of sermons on the theme of "discipleship". Although discipleship seems to have already been the theme for at least two weeks now. Two weeks ago we saw how Jesus called people to be disciples and then ...read more
