    Laying Our Crumbs Upon The Altar

    Contributed by Paul Davidson on Jun 14, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 14,110 views

    Have you truly sacrificed the totality of your own life on God’s altar, committing to Him everything you have and everything you are... or are you giving Him your crumbs, your leftovers, hoping that it pleases Him?

    Please turn in your Bibles to the book of Malachi, which is the last book in the Old Testament. If you find Matthew and then go back a few pages, you’ll be in Malachi. After God reveals His Word through the prophet Malachi, He is then silent for roughly 400 years until the events described in the ...read more

    no matter the difficulties, never, never give up; God has a plan for you

    But this precious treasure—this light and power that now shine within us—is held in perishable containers, that is, in our weak bodies. So everyone can see that our glorious power is from God and is not our own. We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed and broken. We are ...read more

    The Honor Protocol Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 27,563 views

    In God’s Kingdom there is a “Protocol of Honor”. If you expect God’s blessing you need to start by honoring God, respect his Word and behave accordingly. This includes respect by everything that is Holy, God himself, his Word, the Church and the men and w

    Most things in life have to be learned. You can do things naturally but you’ve had to learn how to talk, behave, eat, dress, etc. Some people take all things for granted and have an attitude of knowing it all but in fact there are always new things that we have to learn in the area of our ...read more

    Paonia United Methodist Church October 9, 2002 Rev. John Nadasi Matthew 21:33-46 The parallels are clear. The Pharisees knew he was talking about them. They had been given a vineyard to work in.

    The Widow's Gift Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jun 15, 2005
    based on 14 ratings
     | 8,067 views

    It’s not the size of your gift that matters, but the size of your heart. Believe every cent counts in the Kingdom of God. Learn to be totally dependent upon God.

    Why would Jesus be so impressed with a widow who gave only two mites, which is less than a cent? He was so impressed that He called His disciples together and singled her out of the crowd. Why did He honour her minute gift so proudly and publicly? The woman is nameless. We have no record of any ...read more

    Prayer, Thanks And Obedience

    Contributed by Craig Condon on May 4, 2015
     | 4,627 views

    Our lives are to be characterized by prayer. We are to be quick to pray in all circumstances, and not just in emergencies. We are to give thanks in everything through prayer.

    Do you know what the key to a healthy life is? It is healthy emotions, and the healthiest emotion to have is gratitude. Gratitude actually helps our immune system. It makes us more resistant to stress and less susceptible to illness. People who are grateful are happy because they are satisfied with ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,350 views

    Giving all we have to God through Jesus Christ. We should give everything because it all belongs to God. And we should give gladly.

    I read an alarming statistic. Annually, Americans spend more on dog food than on church contributions. We may want to review some priorities. I also read, “It’s not how much of my money will I give to God, but how much of God’s money will I keep for myself.” The ...read more

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Oct 3, 2019
     | 3,180 views

    When Christians fail to follow God's Positioning System in favor of our own, they degrade the witness of Jesus Christ leading in our own lives.

    Last week, we began a six-week sermon series entitled, “In need of a GPS.” Over the course of this sermon series, we will cover the entire letter to the Galatians moving at a rate of one chapter per week. In our first week, we learned that this letter was written in 54AD to the churches Paul had ...read more

     | 5,191 views

    Our priority must be to put God first, and if we do, then he’ll look after us.

    It’s appropriate to ask, on the day of our AGM, how committed are you to the work of God here at St Theodore’s? It’s a question that we all need to consider as we come to look at Haggai ch 1. If you’ve been here over the last month or so, you’ll know that we’ve been working our way through ...read more
