Slapped In The Face With Love Series

Contributed by Fr Mund Cargill Thompson on Dec 24, 2017

A sermon about taking Jesus to the party, and why God loves you enough to be born as a baby

One little known fact about Father Christmas - and I am not making this up - is that in the year 325AD he punched someone in the face. I am sure he was very sorry about it afterwards. It certainly flies in the face of Jesus’s teaching about loving your enemies. Father Christmas is best known for ...read more

New Year, New Life, New Wine

Contributed by John Ong on Jan 15, 2018

We should not be drunk and indulging in worldly pleasures, instead we must soak in the Holy Spirit.

As we celebrate a new chapter of our lives, we hope for a lot of fortune and opportunities. Life as we know it is full of things that may lead us to wrong choices. These choices include our hope for meaningless fortune we wish and ungodly opportunities we want just to suffice our human desires. We ...read more

Turning The Ordinary Into Extra-Ordinary Series

Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Nov 27, 2018

This is the beginning of a series on the Miracles of Jesus. In this sermon we look at how Jesus can take something as plain as water and turn it into something much greater. In this same way He can take us and turn us into more than we ever imagined.

In our scripture today we find Jesus and his disciples along with His mother Mary at a wedding. More than likely everybody who was anybody in the town was there. Now weddings were a little different then than they are now, this wedding would have lasted all week and the host would have been ...read more

In My Father’s House Luke 2:41-52 I am sure many of us have wondered about Jesus’ early life and upbringing. Matthew leaves the child Jesus after his parents returned to Nazareth and picks Him back up more than 25 years later.
