A Living Hope For The Hopeless Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on May 12, 2019

When Jesus rose from the dead, Thomas got a 5 minute show and tell. By contrast, the 2 men on the road to Emmaus received a 3 hour dissertation. Why the difference? Perhaps Jesus spent more time with these hopeless men, to show us how to have a living Hope in a hopeless world.

Hearts Of Fire

Contributed by Jesse Crooks on May 4, 2023

All of us have our Emmaus roads. People disappoint us, circumstances disappoint us, and careers disappoint us. Sometimes it seems that God has disappointed us like He did these disciples, disappoints us when He does not act in the way or in the time we expect Him to.

Hearts a Fire (Luke 24:13-35) 13 And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs. 14 And they talked together of all these things which had happened. 15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, ...read more

Believe Without A Doubt

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on May 17, 2023

Evidence Of Christ's Return

Contributed by Grant Adams on May 20, 2023

The resurrection of Jesus was unexpected, and beyond human explanation and understanding, and in violation of all-natural laws.

Liberal Theology In The Churches – Address Number 1 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 19, 2022

This first talk in a short series is about Liberal Theology and beliefs. The Church is under the greatest attack since the early times with so much denial in an already evil world, also the enemy of the Church. Liberal thinking of denial and rejection is entering the churches.

LIBERAL THEOLOGY IN THE CHURCHES – ADDRESS NUMBER 1 There is a collection of messages I did with our small church fellowship 7 years ago on the matter of Liberal Theology. Some dangerous ideas and teaching were surfacing among churches (including social aspects), here nationally, and ...read more

The Journey To Emmaus

Contributed by Revd Dr Ruwan Palapathwala on Dec 16, 2024

The risen Christ is with us always. He walks with us on every road. He is with us at the heights of joy and celebration and in the pits of terror and despair. He is always with us, but we do not recognise him. Nevertheless, he journeys with us to the end of our lives.

The gospel reading we just read about Jesus' journey to Emmaus with two persons is one of my favourite resurrection stories and possibly my favourite from the Gospel of Luke. Over the twenty-six years of my ministry, among many other texts in the Gospels, this is one of the most-loved stories I ...read more
