     | 5,745 views

    A sermon for Candlmass inspired by David Mitchell's novel "Cloud Atlas". I only discovered the day after giving this that Cloud Atlas is about to be turned in a Hollywood Blockbuster.

    This is Cloud Atlas. [show a physical copy of the book]. I wonder, have you read it perhaps? Or perhaps you heard about it when it was shortlisted for the booker prize. I remember when I read it - it’s not a book you forget. There are six stories in it, and each story breaks off half way ...read more

    If only we could all learn the way of the Spirit, the supernatural way of listening and waiting, what a wonderful world this could be.

    I am a fan of science fiction and fantasy. I watch Syfy, qualify as at least a light-weight Trekkie, and have seen all of the Stars Wars movies multiple times… “I’m not the chaplain you were looking for.” (If you don’t get it, don’t worry. It’s not that ...read more

    A Good Friday sermon

    A few years ago I witnessed a head on collision between two cars. The car about 300 metres in front of me collided head-on with a vehicle overtaking a truck in the opposite direction.

    The Bible simply says, “....the rich man also died and was buried.” But the funeral must have been a grand affair. The rich man was most likely laid in the best casket, and there was a procession of mourners to accompany him to his grave . . .

    In John 1:1-18 we learn seven truths about the Word.

    A sermon looking at how God gives us the desires of our hearts from Psalm 37

    Our Heart’s Desire Psalm 37 God is far more interested in what lies within our heart than all the externals we try to add, that is, our image. And if we’re honest about it we’re more interested in the image we project, because we think it covers up what’s really going on inside. In this world we ...read more
