    God is Holy, this is not a term that describes his nature, it describes Deity. Something who is Wholly other. When we encounter God it is a Holy Cow God moment

    Holy Cow! –God moments. I still remember the first time we took Hayden to Chick Fil-A and they had the cow roaming. We had been there on many occasions and the “Chick Fil-A Cow” , hence forth to be remembered simply as “The Cow” roamed then as well, but this time, ...read more

    The Camel Squeezed Out From Tail To Snout

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Oct 10, 2007
     | 3,052 views

    Jesus call to discipleship is a call of sacrifice. Anything that stands in the way of answering that call must be deserted. This truth is shown through the encounter of Jesus with the rich young ruler.

    Little did I know when I planned this sermon, that we would have a live camel at VBS this year. At any rate, I want to tell you a story. It is the story of the ill-fated Franklin expedition to the Arctic in 1845. That odyssey was a turning point in Arctic exploration because of its well-publicized ...read more

    In John 4, Jesus encounters a woman whose been looking for love in all the wrong places. But after shareing his love with her she is changed forever.

    Looking for Love in all the Wrong Places In John 4, we meet an anonymous Samaritan woman who’s entire life is about to be transformed by the untold love of a Jewish carpenter.

    Learning from Paul’s encounter with the citizens of Athens this sermon helps us to see how we can introduce God to the people we interact with in lives

    One of the foundational messages of Christianity is around the focus of love. As we flip through the pages of scripture love is dominant. God’s love for us, our love for God and our love for others. Our parish mission statement even reflects this; Because of God’s amazing grace we live to love the ...read more

Chapter 18 is about the arrest and trial of Jesus. The time for talking has almost ended, the time for action is here. This is ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,006 views

    Matthew’s account of the resurrection. Matthew’s narrative of e Galilean encounter with the disciples is a culmination to the gospel which accentuates the Trinitarian nature of God and the mission of the believer.

    He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. The gospels each relate the account of the resurrection according to their own purpose, consequently there are considerable differences between the Gospels (refer to the recent bulletin insert for a harmonization of those events), but with all the ...read more
