    God, for His part, cares for the whole of His creation.

    The Love Of God's Call Series

    Contributed by Billy Ricks on May 7, 2019
     | 4,479 views

    Many remember Jonah as a book about Jonah and the big fish. This book is really about the relentless love and pursuit of God.

    Intro: What do most people remember about Jonah if you have ever heard the story in VBS or Sunday School? You probably remember that it is a whale of a tale. There would be lots of talk about Jonah and his disobedience and reluctance to go where God tells him to go. The problem with remembering ...read more

    But we cannot fulfill our baptismal commitment until we “go and proclaim.”

    Monday of 3rd Week in Course Feast of the Conversion of St. Paul Today’s Gospel really takes us to the core teaching that we sum up in the word “Gospel,” which means “Good News.” That core teaching is that we are not to just come to Jesus, not just listen to Him and be forgiven, healed, baptized ...read more

    No longer a slave.

    AN OPEN LETTER. PHILEMON 1:1-21. Onesimus was a slave who had escaped from his Christian master, Philemon. Yet in a beautiful irony, having not ‘made it’ alone in the big city, he found himself at last brought under the direct personal influence of “Paul the prisoner” (Philemon 1:1). Many a ...read more

    Reality Of Death

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Mar 2, 2020
     | 3,207 views

    A generic sermon about death that can be adapted to funerals.

    I normally try to weave the Bible and the stories of the deceased into a eulogy. • God’s words of instruction to us • God’s Standards borne out in Jesus (John 14.6) • God’s Commands “What would I want to say to an audience who was looking at the reality of death?” Hebrews 9:27-28 27 And just as ...read more

    If you could not be paid to preach would you pay to preach?

    1Co 9:17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me. 18 What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel. From ...read more

    Relying On God Series

     | 17,707 views

    In a culture which prizes self-sufficiency, we need to rely on God.

    Australian males prize self-sufficiency. It’s not masculine to ask anyone else for help. It’s not macho to admit that you can’t handle something on your own. I’m probably one of the worst offenders when it comes to having this sort of attitude. I hate anyone having to show me how to do anything, ...read more

    Just how realistic is the way of Jesus, the way of the Beatitudes, and the Sermon on the Mount? Just how true is Jesus’ statement, “Blessed are the meek for they will inherit the earth”? (Mt 5:5.)

    SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST OR TRIUMPH OF THE MEEK? On Friday nights while all of us should be at our Cell Groups, ntv7 is showing the 2nd series of Survivor—this time at the Australian Outback.
