    Sometimes our attenion becomes so focused in one direction that we fail to acknowledge other realities.

    TITLE: LOOK BOTH WAYS BEFORE CROSSING SCRIPTURE: ST. LUKE 14:25-33 I want to lift up this morning as a thought – Look Ways Before Crossing. This has always been sound advice.

    Too often we try to make Jesus fit our own desires. Instead of the real Jesus we want one that fits into our life neatly. That's a plastic Jesus.

    Jesus calls his followers to deny themselves and carry the cross. What does this look like? What does it mean to deny ourselves in a culture and society based on consumerism?

    Luke 14:25-33 “Carrying the Cross” INTRODUCTION Have you noticed that we appear to be buried under an avalanche of forms? When Faye had her shoulder surgery done this spring she sign enough forms to have killed two or perhaps three large trees. The paper work involved in ...read more

    The reform of our liturgy is not a matter of going back to pre-Vatican II forms, but of becoming more faithful to true worship as it has developed over 2000 years

    Monday of 23rd Week in Course The Spirit of the Liturgy Sept 6 2010 The stories in chapter 6 of Luke are familiar enough, but we need to understand why the Pharisees were wrong–and not just incorrect, but truly evil.

     | 9,651 views

    God's kingdom is like a great feast. Are we treating it as one?

    Parable of the Great Feast (Luke 14:16-24 NIV) Jesus replied: "A certain man was preparing a great banquet and invited many guests. {17} At the time of the banquet he sent his servant to tell those who had been invited, 'Come, for everything is now ready.' {18} "But they all alike began to make ...read more

    Jesus says, “If anyone comes to me and doesn’t hate his father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters--and yes, even his own life--he cannot be my disciple” (Luke 14:26).

    Intro In the Gospel reading for today, we possibly find Jesus at the height of His success, as we measure it. Never had He enjoyed such large crowds. People flocked to Him--and the numbers just grew larger and larger as He got closer to Jerusalem. Yet, Jesus has to ruin it by preaching a bunch ...read more

     | 8,487 views

    This message addresses common reasons unbelievers give of why they will not trust Christ. It also explores the difference between a "good reason" and an "excuse," and we find that most of these "good reasons" non-believers give are just "excuses."

    I am well aware that one of the problems people have with speakers like me is that they often wonder if they are actually real human beings. I once read of a little girl who was taken to church for the first time ever. The child was struck by the solemness of the occasion. And after several moments ...read more
