     | 2,004 views

    A short but challenging homily. The disciples were sent to go and get a donkey for Jesus. How do we respond when Jesus asks things of us?

    I have some Christian friends who were convinced about 2 years ago that God was asking them to buy their local pub and to continue to run it as a pub with food and alcohol being served. (At this point those of you who are anti alcohol – for whatever reason - may already be feeling sceptical, but ...read more

    An encouragement to raise up your 'monument' to past blessings.

    "HITHERTO HATH THE LORD HELPED US". 1 Samuel 7:3-12. Monuments are historical markers which serve to remind us of the accomplishments, or the sacrifices, of those who came before us. They are boundary stones along the time-line, signalling, ‘Something significant happened here’. Or ...read more

    And what I want to talk with you about today is- spurs. I looked up the word to see exactly what it meant. And according to the dictionary it means a device with a small spike or a spiked wheel that is worn on a rider's heel and used for urging a horse forward.

    Introduction Somewhere in a Hartson family photo album is a picture of me at the age of about three. In the picture, I have on my cowboy hat, cowboy shirt, my boots, short pants standing next to my spring action rocking horse.

    Why Does The Resurrection Matter To Us?

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jun 9, 2021
     | 3,443 views

    Why should we be so concerned about proving that the resurrection of Jesus really took place? Sadly, many Christians can tell you the details about the resurrection while never thinking about the way that truth effects their daily lives.

    Last Sunday we learned many of the truths about the resurrection. We all saw how the Apostle Paul proved the truth of the resurrection through the testimonies of 100s of people who saw the resurrected Christ first hand. But you might be asking, “Why does of any of it matter? Why should we be so ...read more

    This is serious worship, with its focus upon who the LORD is (the Rock), and who He is to us (the rock of our salvation).

    LET US SING UNTO THE LORD. Psalm 95:1-7a. In days gone by not everybody who gathered in our churches could read, so it was useful to learn things by rote. So when the praise-leader sang “O Come let us sing unto the LORD” (Psalm 95:1), the congregation knew to join in the singing of Psalm 95. ...read more
