    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 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

    Jesus calls us to relationship, to sabbath-rest. When will we realize this is not about religious or ’spiritual’ activity? We are called to BE not DO.

    Introducing Sabbath The sweetest sounding words that my wife ever speaks to me are very powerful. They arrest me and make me sit and up and listen. Ladies, if you have a man that doesn’t pay attention, you need this sentence because you will get the undivided attention you so desperately desire. ...read more

    Jesus gave everything, we too should choose to give and serve one another in love.

    Tonight I want to start out by having a little brain storming session. I have a blank card for each of you that I want to pick one of the sides and write the word “serve” at the top. Now, I want us to take a minute or two and just write down all the things that come to your mind when you hear this ...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.

    When we over-think our lives and faith, we often under-live them.
