    How powerful is the Word and the words we use to explain it! We continue in our series as we examine the power of words in the life of our Sunday fellowship.

    For the last few weeks we’ve been talking about how to breath life into the Sunday morning worship experience, so that it’s “not just another Sunday morning” that we feel like we just “have to” come to, but a place that we “want to” come attend. We’ve talked about prayer and its importance, but ...read more

    Prostrating oneself in prayer helps me to mean all the words of this creed, with all its intensity and wide scope.

    This is the most Jewish and Catholic prayer possible, in our Gospel today, from Mark 12:29, which Jews call the Shema, which means “hear” in Hebrew-- we have the first line of the Shema in our Gospel today: “Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is Lord alone! You shall love the Lord your God with all ...read more

    Strengthen in Christ

    Paul closes his letter with a liturgical doxology that easily lends itself to a formal worship setting. As much as the letter is a tightly woven piece of logic, so too one finds a structural symmetry to the text that contributes to its overall cohesiveness.

     | 1,879 views

    In this sermon we look at the weight of a few words, or how just a few words spoken by Christ had a major impact on the lives of those who listened and obeyed.

    INTRODUCTION: We so seldom think about the impact that our words have on those who are listening, however in many cases we find others hanging onto our words. This is especially true of preachers, so we must be careful what we say. Our words can have a negative or a positive outcome, I’m sure we ...read more
