When God Shuts The Door

Contributed by Darrell Jones on Feb 20, 2003

Noah could build,he could preach,he could bear the ridicule and mocking of the people. But, as strong as he was there was one thing he could not do. He could not shut the door.

Among the millions of people in Noah’s time, Noah stood alone in his faith,and God did not forget him. God waited to bring destruction "while the ark was preparing". (1Peter 3:20). Every man was invited to enter the ark, none were refused admittance. (1) The Ark Is A Signal To the Sinner (A) ...read more

A God Who Gives Series

Contributed by Brian Bill on Mar 19, 2003

Christmas Day: Name That Tune!

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Dec 22, 2007

This all-age talk for Christmas Day is based around a game of ’Name that Tune’. Each of the 5 tunes, once guessed, help to build up the sermon which ends asking people to invite Jesus into their lives if they’ve not already done so.

(The big idea: The point of this all-age sermon is that Jesus is totally unique! There is no-one like him. He alone reveals God to humanity and he alone reveals God’s plans for us. Just like a piece of music the more we listen to it and get to know it the more its unique qualities become obvious. ...read more
