    Just like God used Joseph to rescue his family, he may be using you to rescue your family.

    Slide #1 FAMILIES IN FLAMES Slide #2 There is no such thing as the “perfect family.” The reason for this is that there is no such thing as “perfect people.” Jesus was the only “perfect person” that ever lived – which leaves you out. Because there are no “perfect people” it is impossible to have ...read more

    Jesus’ mother, a thief that was crucified with Jesus and the two pharisees who placed Him in the tomb all responded differently to Jesus’death on the cross. How will you respond?

    A Mother, a Thief, and a Pharisee Read John 19: 16-42 Today we are looking at the actual crucifixion of Christ When I came to seriously consider and study for this message I soon realised there were many ways that I could approach the topic.

    Sermon from John 6 on where does our hope come from and why.

    Where does our hope come from? In a world full of hopelessness and helplessness, we need hope. Without hope we may as well just give up on life and so many people every day do just that. Now you’re probably sitting there and you know what I’m going to say. You know the answer to the question. ...read more

     | 4,584 views

    Do you know what are human’s three great faults? It leads us to know why we can never reach God ourselves. But we also see in chapter three how God does what we cannot.

    There are three great faults in humanity—three great reasons why we have such a hard time as a race accepting the good news of Jesus Christ. Those reasons are that we are self sufficient, self justifying, and self focused. Self sufficient means we can do it ourselves, we can create goodness, we can ...read more

    It Is A Love Story

     | 3,894 views

    Is the story about healing the Leper just about physical healing? Or is there more to the story? Most translations use the word "clean" ... not "healed." But could this "clean" mean "forgiveness" of sin? Mark Chapter 2 suggests it may be.

    I confess to you how I struggled with the scripture this morning. I struggled because when I first read this scripture, I wondered “how can I preach about this “healing” when I know we have people in our congregation who are good, faithful servants, disciples of Jesus Christ, yet who are suffering ...read more

    All of us get "heartburn" feelings over the questions "What is our world coming to?" and "What do I do with my life?". The risen Lord gives us better answers than we are able to develop on our own.

Every now and then, when you’re tired, or you’ve worked too hard, or there’s been a lot of stress ... every now and then, do you get a strange, tight feeling in the chest? Do you sometimes feel peculiar, a little ...read more
