     | 2,201 views

    This sermon is specifically for Old Carthusians. Lt General Sir William Dobbie (aka Dobbie of Malta) received Jesus as his Saviour and Lord whilst a pupil at Charterhouse school, and what an exciting life he had

    Story. A number of years ago, I decided to downsize. Now when a rural Vicar talks of downsizing he means reducing the number of parishes he has In my case it meant going from 15 parishes to five.

     | 7,272 views

    Christ, while facing His crucifixion, offered a prayer to the Father for His disciples as well as you and I that ends showing Christ' desire for us to be forever with Him in Glory someday. His prayer is a beautiful reminder of His love for us and a desire for us to do well.

    THE PRAYER OF OUR SAVIOR John 17 Text- John 17:9 INTRODUCTION Looking at our text, it is important that we understand what is occurring during this time in the life of Christ as well as what his disciples are about to encounter in their walk.

    God Delights In Bad Odds

     | 3,189 views

    The more unlikely the situation (if we pray), the better God likes it. God likes to show His hand, but He won’t do it unless we step out and depend on Him to come through in order for us have success. God likes the “come-from-behind” position.

    GOD DELIGHTS IN BAD ODDS 1 Sam. 14:6-15,23 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: BOUDREAUX DUMPING TRASH 1. Boudreaux pulled over on the side of the highway and was dumping his trash beside the road.

    This is so well preached on that I would like to ask the question: Why did Jesus not tell the disciples the name of the owner/owners of the Donkey

    EMB 28-03-2021 “On a donkey, you must be kidding!” Luke 21:28-44 Often there’s more to a story than meets the human eye. And our Gospel reading in Luke 21 is no exception.

     | 1,935 views

    Outnumbered & outgunned, Israel shrank in fear from the Philistine invasion. But Jonathan, man of faith, decided it’s wasn't time to SIT back, but time to TAKE back the Kingdom, for God was with them.

    Most people aren’t happy when they’re put in jail, but the Apostle Paul had a thankful heart, even when things went the wrong way. He wrote this letter from prison in Rome!

    The Siege Of Jerusalem

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Feb 1, 2022
     | 2,586 views

    We probably don't like to think about God's justice. The siege of Jerusalem by the Romans, in A.D. 70, forces us to. In this event we see God's justice but we also see that God protected his people in a time of wrath.

    Note: this was a talk I gave to a small afternoon congregation. I wouldn’t give it in our main morning service. INTRODUCTION We’re presently following the theme of discipleship, picking up some of the big things that are part of being a follower of Jesus. But it’s good to have some variety so ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,032 views

    "Do Overs" We all have them. The disciples got a "do over", because Jesus was in the boat. Jesus makes people different. Making people different is why Jesus was born. Quote by a man who will not get a "do over" on Judgment day.

    In Jesus Holy Name February 6, 2022 Luke 5:1-11 Redeemer “Fishermen: Jesus Gives Them a Do Over” Do over days. Have you ever had one? You would be a most unusual person if you didn't have a few do over days in your history. Think back. Come on. Be honest. I'm talking ...read more

    The beginning illustration is a about a fern that won't grow because of its soil. Like the fern in the soil of hardened clay, we need a new beginning in the soil of God's grace!

     | 695 views

    Do you know God’s peace in the midst of situations that the world gets anxious about? If not, examine yourself: Is your faith in Him and your focus on His kingdom, rather than on selfish pursuits?
