    What is it in your hand to offer to the Lord. The sacrifice which you offered not only bring delight to the Lord but also bring the most beautiful fragrance to fill the entire room.

    Today the title of my sharing is “A Fragrant Sacrifice” This story is taken from John 12 and also found in Matt 26 and Mark 14. The setting was at the house of Simon the Leper, (where Lazarus lived) after he had been raised from the dead. The time was six days before the Passover. ...read more

    The anointing of the Lord by Mary was an act that was to be remembered, which affected everyone around, and was an evidence of her love. She gave her best to the Lord.

    ANOINTING THE LORD John 12:1-8 1 Six days before the Passover, Jesus arrived at Bethany, where Lazarus lived, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. 2 Here a dinner was given in Jesus’ honour. Martha served, while Lazarus was among those reclining at the table with him. 3 Then Mary took about a pint ...read more

    Worship should be the most natural aspect of a Christian’s life.

    Title: Counting The Cost Of Worship Text: John 12:1-8 Introduction James Michener, writing in his book, The Source, tells the story of a man named Urbaal, who was a farmer living about 2200 B.C. He worshiped two gods, one a god of death, the other a goddess of fertility. One day, the temple ...read more

    It doesn’t take long at this dinner party before the chaos breaks out, this time through the surprising appearance of Mary, pouring a ludicrously expensive jar of perfume.

    We’re turning to John’s Gospel today, which, quite frankly, is a little unnerving for me, as I find John’s Gospel more difficult to deal with than the other three John retells the story of Jesus in such a way that things are rarely as they appear to be. Jesus speaks of being born ’from above’ and ...read more

    We find Mary, who was the sister of Lazarus who would give the moon if it were hers to give. Mary gave extravagantly to the Lord.

    I get motivated when I hear songs about the extent people will go for love. I read this poetic expression of love recently. I would climb highest mountain for your love. I would swim the deepest ocean. Oh my love, I will come by and see you Saturday if it is not raining. Not much of a ...read more

    This look at Mary at the feet of Jesus will show how giving Jesus extreme worship doesn’t fit worldly thinking but it always fits Godly devotion

    I’m not sure exactly when they started – it may have been back before the time of Christ. I’m not sure how Mt. Dew seemed to become the drink associated with them. But I am relatively sure that we’ll have “extreme sports” in some form or another for the rest of history to come. Extreme sport: ...read more

    Was Mary’s annointing of Jesus an extravagant gift or a waste of money?

    Martha beavered away ’serving’, Lazarus (a former dead man) had a story to tell and Mary was extravagant in her worship. There are lessons for us in these three characters!

    On Maundy Thursday we hold meals around the town in homes and in Churches in honour of Jesus. Here was a dinner given in Jesus’ honour (12:2). It is only six days before the Passover (12:1) so it is the day before ‘Palm Sunday’ – the day when Jesus entered Jerusalem riding on a donkey, the day ...read more
