    THE ORDER OF THE TOWEL Mark 10:45 INTRODUCTION One old cliche says, “Familiarity breeds contempt.” It doesn’t have to be true, but all too often it is. We have read this text before. Can we give it a second look? Perhaps it doesn’t need interpretation as much as ...read more

Paradise is not ...read more

    Christmas Day: Name That Tune!

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Dec 22, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,770 views

    This all-age talk for Christmas Day is based around a game of ’Name that Tune’. Each of the 5 tunes, once guessed, help to build up the sermon which ends asking people to invite Jesus into their lives if they’ve not already done so.

    (The big idea: The point of this all-age sermon is that Jesus is totally unique! There is no-one like him. He alone reveals God to humanity and he alone reveals God’s plans for us. Just like a piece of music the more we listen to it and get to know it the more its unique qualities become obvious. ...read more
