    Non Christians asked about friendship and I realised I had preached many a sermon about being friends with Jesus, but I had never preached and I could not find by anyone else, a sermon about how to be friends with our fellow human beings

    I heard on Wednesday how the Christian Union up in St Andrews went round other students in the university with a camera and asked “If you met God at the pearly gates, what questions would you ask him?” Interestingly there were very few questions about bone cancer or wasps that live ...read more

    True motherhood is a lifetime task; but handled right, it is a calling, a privilege and a pleasure. Yet Mother’s Day is not for everyone. “When a father is not happy, who cares, but when a mother is not happy, nobody is happy!”

    Ex 2.1-10 Psalm 127 Col 3.12-17 John 19.25b-27 Summary: True motherhood is a lifetime task; but handled right, it is a calling, a privilege and a pleasure. Yet Mother’s Day is not for everyone. “When a father is not happy, who cares, but when a mother is not happy, nobody is ...read more

    I dislike the term “born again”; being asked regularly; I mean, just how do you answer this question? I personally find it intimidating and off putting, but I don’t disagree with the logic nor the reasons why it is done, and I will now tell you why.

    Cross Purposes 3: Redemption Series

    Redemption is like purchasing a slave to free them. Jesus 1) made a personal investment, and 2) paid a price. We are free as we 1) recognize our worth, and 2) chooses to be slaves of God.

    CROSS PURPOSES 5: REDEMPTION For the past 4 weeks, we have been asking, “Why did Jesus Christ, the Son of God, die on the cross for us?” We keep asking the same question, because the cross impacts our lives in so many ways, that we can’t exhaust them all: The cross shows the love of God. ...read more

    THE LAST PASSOVER. Matthew 26:14-30.

    When God adds a promise of land to Abram’s “seed” promise (Genesis 12:7), we think that Abram is goanna be great. The story doesn’t end there. God turns from the promise of descendants to the possession of land.
