    A sermon for Lent 5, reminding us that there is life beyond death and encouraging us not to be dictated to by death

    What’s your attitude to death? If you were to visit a doctor tomorrow and they said you were dieing, how would you react? Would you be like one of my mates who said, I can’t afford to die yet, I don’t have enough money for the funeral? Or perhaps you might be like the lady who said of course I ...read more

    Some times we only get one shot to do things right. But Christ can work beyond our limitations

    Too Late? Sometimes, you only get one chance. There are opportunities that only happen once. And if you miss it, you never get the chance to do it again. For example, At my High School, there is a tradition. When the graduate’s name is called, members of the family stand up to show support for ...read more

    I preached this at my grandmother’s funeral. She was 88 and althogh her health had been declining, her death was very sudden. Her last request of me was to officiate at her funeral, which I did and was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my ministry.

    (Reading of the obituary) I think it’s pretty safe to say that this day came as a great shock to almost every one of us in this room here today. While we knew that Grandma wasn’t in the best of health, and had some past health issues a little over 4 years ago, none of us thought that we’d be ...read more

    Text: Now Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died” (John 11:21). When that verse is isolated one gets the feeling that Martha is casting blame on Jesus because His absence brought about the death of her brother Lazarus. You can almost feel the emotion of ...read more
