    What does abiding in Christ, who is the true vine mean for me today - mission?

    Sermon Story: When Maddy and I lived in Switzerland we had a couple of vines in the back garden. To be honest, the first year we were there - they looked pretty awful and so Maddy asked her father - as he had been a farmer - to come round and trim them to see if we could get any fruit. I got a ...read more

    Pruning does not simply mean spiritual surgery It is not just the removal of what is dead. It can also mean cutting away the good and the better so that we might enjoy the best.

The Scripture Readings for this day were: Acts 8:26-40; Psalm 22:24-30; 1 John 4:7-21 and John 15:1-8.

    We can learn love from Jesus and Mary

    Mother’s Day 2012 Spirit of the Liturgy To whom was Jesus preaching this incredible Last Supper sermon on love? Let’s make a short list: • Judas, the revolutionary and embezzler who had already sold Jesus out to the Jews • Simon, the Zealot, who most likely had a history ...read more

  • Getting What You Ask For From God

    Contributed by R. Joseph Owles on May 6, 2012
     | 6,318 views

    Based on the Lectionary readings for the 5th Sunday in Easter (Acts 9:26-31; 1 John 3:18-24; John 15:1-8). Jesus says that we can ask anything from God and receive it. 1 John explains it, and Acts shows the consequence.

    Jesus said to his disciples: "I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine grower. He takes away every branch in me that does not bear fruit, and every one that does he prunes so that it bears more fruit. You are already pruned because of the word that I spoke to you. Remain in me, as I remain in ...read more

  • Leafy Growth

    Contributed by Jon Lipka on May 6, 2012
     | 3,934 views

    As branches of the vine, it is our purpose to produce much fruit, not simply to serve ourselves by producing leafy growth.

    God told Abram, “All people on earth will be blessed through you” (Gen. 12:3). He was not pointing to Isaac. Nor to Jacob, the first Israel; even though he brought blessing where he went, he was not the perfection of the promise—of God’s covenant. Similarly the sons of Jacob ...read more

    Stay Connected to Jesus 1) That you may live; 2) That you may love

    How connected are you? How reliant on your laptop, tablet, or smart phone? Take a look at this video clip (view “Connect” by The Veracity Project). As the clip highlighted, we’re quite connected – perhaps even over connected in this digital age. It used to be that when you ...read more

  • God The Gardener

    Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on May 6, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,917 views

    God wants us to grow. Like plants, if we actually want to grow, we’ve got to be pruned. God’s discipline is always loving. Accepting it is the key to becoming who God means us to be.

    In Hampton Court near London (start video-http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxzG6C-jrwE), there is a grapevine under glass; it is about 1,000 years old and has but one single root which is at least two feet thick. A formidable root. Some of the branches are 200 feet long. Without careful tending, ...read more

    SPIRITUAL GROWTH

    John 15:1-7 (KJV) 1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. 2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. 3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. 4 Abide ...read more

    To have real joy I must stay connected to Jesus.

    I’m not going to ask for a show of hands, but how many of you feel like this this morning. [Show “Keep Calm. It’s only Christmas” meme] The truth is that in spite of the words of the famous Andy Williams song that tells us that Christmas is the “the most wonderful time of the year”, the reality ...read more

     | 8,654 views

    A sermon for Confirmation Sunday.

    “Christ’s Joy in You” John 15:1-11 I think Jesus Christ was the most joy-filled human to ever walk the earth. Why do I say this? Think about it, Jesus didn’t worry about His life—what He would eat or drink, or what He would wear. He trusted His Father in heaven. He was able to love—even ...read more

  • The Shepherd & The Sheep 2 Of 6

    Contributed by Charles La Porte on Jun 5, 2017
     | 2,604 views

    Too many times we approach God as though He is some kind of cosmic Santa Clause. We are distant and removed, and our only motive is to get something from Him. With God, we only want to receive blessing, or direction or instruction from Him. Yet God wants

  • Patriot

     | 5,902 views

    We can be Patriots without offending our God! We need only to put God first!

    Who were the first Patriots? To answer the question, we must first determine what the word means. Google and Webster define it this way: a person who vigorously supports their country and is prepared to defend it against enemies or detractors. Some may ask: then what is the difference between ...read more

    where are we headed to do our own work or Gods work

    Where are you going? I remember when I was a kid. My mom would ask me where was I going. When I got older I was still asked where I was going.
