    In his instructions of the role of older women, God tells us what he really thinks about the role of women in the church.

    As I read the text at the beginning of the sermon I asked the audience to pay special attention to the instructions Titus received in what he was to teach each specific group in this passage - Titus 2:1-10). Have you ever seen a child with lots of freckles on their face? I read the story about ...read more

    The world claims to want love, and love is advocated and praised from every corner. Romantic love especially is touted. Songs, novels, movies, and television serials continually exploit emotional, lustful desire as if it were genuine love. Questing for and fantasizing about the “perfect ...read more

    Jesus turned water into wine. What is it just a good trick? Or was there more to it? This is the beginning of a series on the 7 signs of Jesus in the gospel of John.

    OUT OF THE ORDINARY As I was meditating on Jesus’ miracle of turning water into wine, a phrase popped into my head – “joie de vivre”. I knew of it mostly from theology texts and usually guessed at its meaning and pronunciation. But this phrase kept nagging me, so I decided to ...read more

     | 4,858 views

    People are confused by protestors and riots and they are hating those who they claim hate, but is this in alignment with God's word? God does hate, and abomination punishments bear witness to this. We first must hate ourselves as Jesus commanded.

    Looking For The Escape Clause?...the Good Samaritan

    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 12, 2022
     | 2,939 views

    The story of the Good Samaritan was Jesus' way of blasting our excuses for trying to get out of obeying God to demonstrate compassion for the needy. An escape clause is a device in a contract to elude responsibility!

JOKE 1: A lawyer died and went to Heaven. “There must be some mistake,” the lawyer argued. “I’m too young to die. I’m only 55.” “Fifty-five?” said Saint Peter. “No, according to our ...read more

    A short sermon looking at the point of parables to get people to think about the message of Jesus, and a call to us to be ’yeast’ in God’s hands.

    I was chatting to David Lowman – the Archdeacon of Southend – this week. We were talking about ‘preaching’ – for example length of sermon, quality of sermon, and the coherence of sermons. David said that sometimes he goes to a Church and preaches and people say, “Thank you. I could hear every word ...read more
