    Pruning is essential in gardening and in life. We are created to love and a pruned connection to the true vine results in the fruit of love.

    5 Easter B John 15:1-8 18 May 2003 Rev. Roger Haugen I don’t know a lot about vines and grapes. I have a brother who helps out in a vineyard near Victoria where he is learning about the wine business. He tells me that in the fall they prune the vine aggressively, down to just a main vine and ...read more

    God’s desire is that we would experience the blessed life – where we would be happy, supremely blessed; and spiritually prosperous – with life-joy and satisfaction in God’s favour and salvation.

    THE BLESSED LIFE #2 – VIVA LA VIDA TODAY’S DATE: Sept. 28 – it was 18 years ago in a farmhouse in Lacombe, Alberta, where I first encounter God in a life-transforming way, and my life has never been the same since!

    Christianity is sometimes dismissed because the package isn't attractive enough. That was the problem with the first Christmas as well.

    I have a problem with Christmas. Not with the idea of celebrating Jesus’ birth of course. Nor with the idea of giving gifts to our loved ones. That’s good because it helps us remember that God gave us the greatest gift of all. It’s not even the temptation to eat more than I really ...read more

    Happy Is the Person 1) Who is sad and hungry 2) Who is meek and merciful 3) Who suffers for Jesus' sake

    Last fall the British government announced its intent to create a “happiness index” to gauge just how cheerful its citizens are. The plan has since been scrapped, as one British politician explained, “You cannot capture happiness on a spreadsheet any more than you can bottle ...read more

    A talk encouraging the church to love one another, showing compassion to those in need as a sign of Christ’s love, and so that people will see we are his disciples.

    [Note to the Reader - this talk owes a lot to the excellent book by Bill Hybels and Mark Mittelberg entitled Becoming a Contagious Christian] This is the fourth talk in a series entitled Making Jesus Better Known. Week one was People Matter to God. Week two was Impacting Your World and week three ...read more

    Faith directs us to glorify God, to serve others and to build ourselves spiritually - all at the same time.

    Sometimes, when I watch sports at home, Hannah will sit down beside me and watch the game with me for a few minutes. Eventually she'll ask who's playing and who are the good guys and who are the bad guys. Then she'll say something to the effect of “whoever wins – I like!” Now, in ...read more

    When life is not fair, what do you do? Life is not fair, it seems the bad guys win all the time, so what’s the godly thing to do.

    The raising of the Widow of Nain's son shows us the compassion of Jesus

    The Raising of the Widow of Nain’s Son Introduction Today’s Gospel reading isn’t a very easy passage to speak on. I think the key to understanding why Luke included this story in his Gospel can be found in the final passage of Lk 7 - Luke 7:18-35 John the Baptist has held in ...read more

    During our low moments, maybe even depression, do we hid ourselves away? We can't hid from God. We need to come out of our emotional caves into the light of Christ.

    1 Samuel 24 In the Cave: God said to Adam “Adam I want you to do something for me” Adam replied, "Gladly, Lord, what do You want me to do?" "I want you to go down into that valley, across the river, and over to the hill. On the other side of the hill you will find a cave. In the ...read more

    Sermon about doubt, and not recognising Jesus

    When I was a child, I was allowed to walk to and from school on my own as soon as I could safely cross the road, and from quite an early age, I was pretty much allowed to disappear all afternoon during weekends, just so long as I was home by dinner time. Now I am not suggesting the world was a ...read more
