The King Has Come - Palm Sunday

Contributed by Tim Melton on Mar 15, 2021

The Jews longed for freedom from the Romans. They desired too little. They were too easily satisfied. They wanted freedom in the present from sinful men when the King had come who would forgive their sin and grant them eternity. The true King had come.

Have you ever been in a situation where you really needed some help? A situation just got out of hand. It was too difficult, too painful, you were trapped and there was nothing you could do about it. You really needed someone who could come into your situation and make things right. That had often ...read more

Believing A Lie (1 Kings 13)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jun 29, 2025

Should we check everything preached to us against the Bible? Let's look at 1 Kings 13.

Should we believe those who claim to have a message from an angel, or obey the word of God? Let’s begin in 1 Kings 13. What dangerous mission did an unnamed man of God embark upon? Did he make a prophecy of Josiah, over 300 years in advance? A man of God came from Judah to Bethel by a revelation ...read more

Saul's Failure Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Apr 3, 2003

Saul’s mistake was that he was more worried about his success than God’s glory. God became for him a means to an end, rather than an end in himself. So this is both warning and a challenge to us. Make sure that God is at the centre of our focus in everyth

On the surface, the story of Saul’s life is one of wars against his enemies, mostly victorious. But that’s just the setting for a much more significant drama that unfolds as his life as king progresses, a drama that involves his relationship with the God of Israel. It’s ironic that as the story ...read more

King David And His Relevance For Today

Contributed by Michael Hopkins on Aug 25, 2011

A look at the life of King David, and what that might have to say to Christians today.

It hasn’t gone unnoticed that some of the MPs criticising the Murdochs and News International have a dubious track record in terms of expenses, and might therefore not be in a position to criticise the morals of others. Likewise, Stephen Fry remarked on the inappropriateness of any ...read more

Yes, Jesus Is Certainly Lord And King

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 18, 2024

Our solemnity today is that of Christ the King. When we claim that Christ is the King of the Universe, we support that claim with a passage that seems to be quite crazy.

Christ the King Once upon a time in a land not far from here, there was a choice to be made for the leader of the land. A woman was placed in contention for the prime leader of the whole nation. Her platform was not well-defined, but one thing was clear from every word out of her mouth. She had no ...read more

Hope For A Broken World Series

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Apr 3, 2022

The Root of Jesse will unite and heal everything in this world that has been broken and separated. Those who once were aggressive, hostile, and violent will live together in the harmony that only Christ can give.

When you look around the world, you see there’s a lot going wrong. People who don’t care at all about God are thriving. The tide of our culture is rushing quickly toward dangerous places. Just go to the public library, or onto Netflix or YouTube, and you’re confronted with many godless values. ...read more

King Herod's Early Release Program Series

Contributed by Peter Loughman on Oct 11, 2009

No one, not a single person in this story expects Peter to be released. Not Herod, not the guards, not the people of the church, not even Peter himself. Still, God answers the prayer.

Contributed by Sam Cheung on Aug 12, 2021

A sermon on the Queen of Sheba and how her attitude is held up to be an example to all of us.

When you hear from several people that something is good, what do you do? It may be a film, or for Malaysians, it could be a restaurant or a particularly good source of durian.
