    The Price Of Discipleship

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on May 17, 2015
     | 5,942 views

    We often preach on salvation given so freely, but do we take the time to look at the price we have to pay to be a disciple?

    The Price of Discipleship Jesus is on his way to Jerusalem, a journey that he knew would end with him being crucified, and yet many of those following him thought he was on his way to establish his Kingdom in the capital city. Sometimes I wonder if Jesus ever wanted to say: “What ...read more

    I Feel Completely Inadequate

    Contributed by David Radcliff on Mar 12, 2016

    Have you ever heard the old saying, “If you fail to plan, then you may as well plan to fail.”

    I FEEL COMPLETELY INADEQUATE Luke 14:28-33 Have you ever heard the old saying, “If you fail to plan, then you may as well plan to fail.” This is a hard saying of Christ that makes it sound impossible to be able to one of his disciples. We should always have a plan of action no matter ...read more

    "The High Cost Of Discipleship"

    In this message we look at the real cost of discipleship. We have watered it down for today's culture. Jesus never did that.

    “The High Cost of Discipleship” Luke 14:25-35 Last week we left the disciples standing on the shore. They had just brought in such a large catch of fish that the nets were nearly breaking and when they placed all the fish in the boats they began to sink. Jesus said to them, come and ...read more

    Prioritising commitments, bearing the Cross, and counting the cost of discipleship.

    PUTTING JESUS FIRST. Luke 14:25-33. I. Prioritising commitments. Jesus, it has to be admitted, is a great orator. Seeing the crowds following Him, He turned (Luke 14:25), and spoke words that were designed to shock, and even offend His hearers. In a masterstroke of hyperbole, He took their ...read more

    Shouldn’t We Put Family First?

     | 8,042 views

    A look at the difficult passages where Jesus calls us to "hate" our families. Why would He ask something like that?

    IT SOUNDS GOOD AND RIGHT: “Family first.” - “Family first” comes naturally for us because it’s so easy to love your family more than anything. - Sure, they aggravate us sometimes, but they are our deepest earthly relationships. When a family is as it should be, they ...read more

    In this message we will see that the church Jesus intended is made not of fans, but crucified followers.

    Cross and the Believers: A Good Friday Message Today is Good Friday, and the focus is on the cross. Traditionally we are used to listening to sermons about Jesus’s words from the Cross or the stations of the cross etc. More than any other day, Cross is on everybody’s mind today.

    Reflection A.5 / Coronavirus - First Response / We Ask Why. But We’re Cautious In Forming An Opinion

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on May 9, 2020
     | 1,567 views

    Looking at coronavirus - is there a bigger picture? We need to look, but we also need to be cautious in interpreting what we 'see'.

    There are many ways to ‘see’ things, not with our physical eyes, but with the eyes of understanding. In the previous 'Reflection' I reflected on Jesus’ sensitivity to different people he met: a leper, someone who was deaf, someone who was blind. Jesus ‘saw’ each person as an individual ...read more

    We Are His Disciples Series

    Contributed by Doug Fannon on Jun 15, 2020
     | 4,342 views

    Our desire should be to be like Christ, to follow in His footsteps, to see the world as He sees the world, to conform to His likeness. We have a word for it, we call it being a disciple. We are called to be His disciples.

    Who are we in Christ? We have been looking at this pretty much since Easter. We considered that “in Christ” we are a new creation. All the old has passed away and before God, all has become new! Being in Christ, we represent Him to the world, we have become His ambassadors. We have the ...read more
