    Jesus was found in his fathers house. The most uninspiring of all the stories, yet there is a Gospel message at its core, and the plan unfolding about Jesus’ ministry.

    This sermon was delivered to St Oswald’s, Maybole, Ayrshire, Scotland on the 30th December 2012; St Oswald’s is a Scottish Episcopal Church in the Dioceses of Glasgow and Dumfries. “Please join me in a short prayer from Psalms 19:14, and ” Let the words of my mouth, and ...read more

    This message is the introduction to my series titled "Stronghold Beliefs." In Part 1 I introduce the concept of stronghold beliefs and why they are important. I also discuss the first stronghold beliefs that all Christians should share.

    This morning we are going to follow Mary and Joseph’s dilemma and think about how we too might lose sight of Christ, how Jesus can become LOST IN THE SHUFFLE of our busy lives, especially during this Christmas Season.

    TITLE: LOST IN THE SHUFFLE SCRIPTURE: ST. LUKE 2:41-52 I am excited this morning to begin our Advent series. I look forward to and love this time of year and bring messages leading up to the greatest announcement the world has ever heard. I hear so many preachers say they no longer do an ...read more

    Mary A Terrific Teenager

    Contributed by Bob Marcaurelle on Dec 3, 2019
     | 3,140 views

    The Roman Catholic Church has defied this young girl and in response, many Protestants have demoted her as some kind of second-class servant of God. This is wrong because she, like her Son, was one of God's suffering servants.

    MARY - THE TERRIFIC TEENAGER Luke 1:26-38 A remarkable thing about God is that he trusts us with His work. He trusted men and women in Bible times to receive and record His revelations of Himself. He entrusted His church with His supreme revelation, Jesus, and with the great commission ...read more

    The call of God is the greatest privilege granted us.

    In My Father’s House Luke 2:41-52 I am sure many of us have wondered about Jesus’ early life and upbringing. Matthew leaves the child Jesus after his parents returned to Nazareth and picks Him back up more than 25 years later. Mark doesn’t pick up the story until Jesus came to John for Baptism. ...read more

    Growing With Jesus

    Contributed by James May on Dec 30, 2018
     | 9,725 views

    Jesus had to submit himself to his parents in order to grow up and mature in wisdom and understanding before he could step out into ministry. Should we not humble ourselves, submit to leaders over us and grow up spiritually, emptying ourselves of pride before we attempt to minister to others.

    Growing with Jesus Sunday, December 30, 2019 By Rev. James May From the time of Jesus’ birth to his appearance at the Jordan River to be baptized by John the Baptist, little is known about Jesus’ childhood and growing up. The only passage that tells us much of anything is found in the 2nd ...read more

    Why does Jesus answer Mary so?

    My Hour Has not Yet Come: An Exposition of John 2:1-12. On the surface, this passage is a cute story which demonstrates the compassion Mary and Jesus had on a bridegroom and his family when they ran out of wine at a wedding feast. When it is preached this way, emphasis is placed upon Mary’s ...read more

    The story of a 12 year-old boy left behind in Jerusalem by his parents? Sound familiar? Almost sounds like a Christmas classic movie! Not exactly. This is the story of the Son of God, knowing who he was and why he was here.

    As I read through the account from Luke 2 which you heard this morning of how Jesus was left behind by his parents in Jerusalem, I couldn’t help but think of what has become classic Christmas movie, “Home Alone.” If you’re not familiar with the movie, it’s about a boy around the age of 10-12 ...read more
