    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,403 views

    The type of person we see in Jesus or indeed what Jesus means to us is very variable, unique and very personal - Jesus, not just a Leader, Teacher, Physician, not even as Saviour, but John describes Jesus as food. I AM the bread of life.

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,772 views

    There are many questions surrounding the raising of Lazarus from the dead by Jesus. The sermon is designed for Passion Sunday but can be easily adapted as it explains the context surrounding 'why Jesus had to die'

    Implications of raising Lazarus When I go to the gym and join classes I always keep an eye on the clock. I like to know when it’s halfway- if it’s a hard class I’ve endured the 1st half, and downhill now to the end. Similarly if it’s a boring class. half way- not long to go now. Half way - ...read more

  • The Serenity Of Christ Before Pilate

    Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Mar 29, 2023
     | 1,396 views

    Who is in control at Christ's trial? Pilate wanted to release Jesus but changed his mind. Caiaphas effectively blackmails Pilate into doing his will in getting rid of Jesus. But Jesus remains cool, charm and collective. The crowd who are stirred up in demanding the death of Jesus.

    The Serenity of Christ before Pilate I’m sure many of you here this morning have visited Coventry Cathedral and left with some sort of reaction to that Church, dedicated to the Glory of God in the name of St. Michael and All Angels. It is the sort of modern Cathedral building you either love or ...read more

    St Paul has very strong arguments for the resurrection and writes to the Corinthian Church to counteract those who are denying that the resurrection of the dead - if that is so Christ has not been raised.

    Death is swallowed up in Victory 1 Corinthians 15: 54 Reading for The New Testament lesson – 1 Corinthians 15: 12-22, 54b-57 (3 readers: 1 and 2 plus a Narrator) 1 We proclaim that Christ has been raised from the dead, 2 How can some of you say there is no resurrection of the dead? 1 ...read more

  • The Honour Of Second Place

    Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Jan 17, 2017
     | 4,802 views

    In life there are those who seem to be born leaders but leaders need the essential support of others and appear to take 2nd place. The disciple of Jesus, Andrew shows us very clearly that there is Honour in taking Second Place.

    I’m sure in the past you have either applied for a job or some position and you attended an interview panel or selection board. Well picture the disciples before such an examining board which was appointed to choose Jesus' closest associates. Peter stood there smelling of fish -- uncouth, ...read more

  • St Peter And Hans Christian Andersen

     | 3,688 views

    The first letter of Peter takes your breath away as he relates to the wonderful gift God has given us in His Son that we are children of God and inheritors of the kingdom of heaven. Andersen relates how God in Christ gives us a totally new view on life.

    St Peter and Hans Christian Andersen 1 Peter 1:3-12 There are few passages in the NT where more of the great fundamental Christian ideas come together than in this passage of St Peter. It begins with a doxology to God--but a doxology with a difference. For a Jew the commonest of all beginnings to ...read more

    For the Samaritan woman at the water well the experience of meeting Jesus changed her life forever, we can share in her wonder.

    Sharing the Wonder John 4:5-30 Today’s gospel shows some astounding characteristics of Jesus.

    Ambition Matthew 20:20 - 28 Today we see two of Jesus' closest disciple being ambitious, the request to sit at Christ's side in His kingdom.
