    Paul was chosen by God, yet for the sake of the furtherance of the Gospel he had to suffer many things; he teaches us in the book of Philippians that we should rejoice in sufferings and anxiety, and rejoice in lowly service, with Christ as our pattern.

He had visited Philippi on his second missionary journey, this was some time later, and the Church seems to have been well established at the time of this writing. In ...read more

    This sermon aims to help Christian teenagers (and adults) consider how they might respond to people who apparently take a disliking to them.

    WHAT WOULD JESUS DO ... about enemies? I wonder if you have ever had, or even have now, someone who just doesn’t seem to like you and who would apparently do anything to get at you? We probably don’t want to have enemies, but they’re there anyway, so what do we do about them? Well, first, ask ...read more

    Using the method that Jethro gave to Moses, we can learn the steps it takes to become an obedient and fruitful church through competent leadership.

    WHEN IT COMES TO SPIRITUAL LEADERSHIP WITHIN THE CHURCH IT CAN BE SAID WITH ASSURANCE THAT MORE FAILURE COMES FROM AN EXCESS OF CAUTION THAN FROM THE BOLD EXPERIMENTS WITH NEW IDEAS. WE NEED BOLD AND DARING LEADERS TO HELP GUIDE CHRIST’S CHURCH UNASHAMEDLY INTO THE UNCHARTED AREAS OF GOD’S ...read more

    Like Scrooge, we too can reclaim Christmas, with the help of the “spirits” of Christmas Past, Present, and Future

    “The Spirits of Christmas” “Bah, Humbug!” shouted Ebenezer Scrooge, using a mild Victorian form of profanity, meaning “nonsense” or “rubbish”. Charles Dickens depicted Scrooge as the epitome of all cynics hardened to the holiday spirit. Scrooge was stingy, selfish, and heartless. Later on Dr ...read more
