    Gods Truth Stays The Same, Our Understanding Changes Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Apr 8, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,099 views

    God does not change, and his truth is always true; our perception of the truth either improves or declines. The New Testament doctrines we embrace are not new: God, who is the God of both testaments, inspired Paul and others to develop them for us.

    God’s Truth Stays the Same, Our Understanding Changes (Isaiah 45:22-25) 1. The English language began as Anglo Saxon, a Germanic language similar to Friesen. When the Vikings conquered England, they brought in their words and grammar. Then the French Normans conquered England and mixed in ...read more

    Big Results Not A Big Fanfare Series

     | 3,406 views

    Why do we bring up the bread and wine from the back of church at the offertory? What is heaven like? Does God prefer a big splash and fanfare or big results done quietly?

    If you are picking up an Agatha Christie and you are impatient you’ll turn to the last page of the novel to find the answer. But of course first of all you have to know the question, which in an Agatha Christie book is “Who was the murderer”.By the end of this morning sermons I ...read more

    based on 5 ratings
     | 14,541 views

    It has been said that "you will never walk on water if you do not get out of the boat." And yet, too often we fail to think about the next step. This sermon is meant to encourage those afraid to step out in faith as well as those who are sinking!

    Many centuries ago, a man named Peter stood on the edge of a boat in the Sea of Galilee. Like all people who find themselves on an edge - whether physical or metaphorical - a decision had to be made. Peter’s choice was to either to step out onto the water or remain in the boat. Not an easy ...read more

    The mountain top experience was a sanctuary, and a challenge.

    BRICKS IN THE VALLEY Text: Matthew 17:1 - 9 We all know from the laws of gravity that what goes up must also come down. That thought even reminds me of a song that was once sung by a group that was known as Blood, Sweat and Tears entitled “Spinning Wheel”. The problem with ...read more

     | 1,654 views

    We are to use our body to give God glory in all that we do.

    In these first few verses, Paul was portraying the qualities of unbelievers. He does not imply that these individuals are automatically and permanently prevented from going to heaven.

    Farewell Address -- Kissing Frogs

    Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Sep 15, 2018
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,342 views

    Farewell Address at dinner by the Parish for my wife Lee and I. It has some humor yet I believe it touches the heart of who we are called to be in Christ. At the end I passed out 125 Red Wax Lips and and 125 signs that state "I Kiss Frogs" with a picture of a frog with big red lips.

    It just wouldn't feel right ... if I didn't begin with ... a story. And at the end of the story ... there is a little surprise ... that just might require a group picture. Well ... This short discourse is called ... "Kissing Frogs" Ever feel like a Frog? Frogs feel slow, ... low, ... ...read more
