    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    A sermon preached at a healing service while I was visiting a Lutheran church in Sweden (This is the English text - it was translated as I gave it by my host)

    The little baby Mary wasn't expected to live. She was now in hospital. Her parents had been told to expect the worst. But the curate from the local church refused to give up. Day after day he went and prayed by her bedside. Seven decades later I met Mary. The baby who was meant to die was now a ...read more

    The Lords prayer is only a model of prayer, it is a guideline that we should use and modify, after all, we must communicate in the way that suits both ourselves and God. We need to speak to him in his language, using his logic.

    This sermon was delivered to St Oswald’s in Maybole, Ayrshire Scotland, on the 25th July 2010; St Oswald’s is a Scottish Episcopal Church in the Dioceses of Glasgow and Dumfries. The readings for today are: Genesis 18:20-32 Psalm 138 Colossians 2:6-15, (16-19) Luke ...read more

    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
