    We celebrate the birth of Christ, the only hope for this world, who gave his life for all mankind to rescue them from sin and death. And to everyone who believes in HIM, to them HE gives the promise of eternal life. This is the REAL Story of Christmas

    The Real Christmas Message* *I dislike the word "story" as in the Christmas "Story", as the word "story" gives a sense of fiction. CHRISTMAS IS A MESSAGE of TRUTH that needs to be told and heard around the world. Arranged by William Akehurst, HSWC We celebrate the ...read more

    God Keeps His Promises Series

     | 1,658 views

    God had been promising to send the Messiah for centuries, and many of the Jews probably doubted if it would ever really happen. But God’s timing is perfect, and He always keeps His promises. Then and now.

    Perfect Timing of God The Promises God gave to Adam and Eve, was fulfilled 2000yrs ago. Yes, by sending His own Son at the mercy of men. In Galatians 4:4, Paul says, at the right time God send his son to us, to fulfill his promises' given to Adam and Eve. His timing is perfect, when the ...read more

    Three Big Reasons To Rejoice At Christmas

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Dec 24, 2021
     | 2,429 views

    Jesus' birth was cause for lots of rejoicing. But wasn't it a long time ago? Is it still cause for rejoicing for us? It certainly is!

    [This is a short sermon / reflection for a short Christmas Day service.] Earlier in the service we reminded ourselves of the Christmas story. Perhaps we thought: that’s a nice story. But does it really affect me? In the Christmas story in the Bible there’s a constant note of joy. Elizabeth ...read more

    These men had a reputation, they were the— elite, These men had King Herod’s ear. Again, They didn’t haphazardly visit Jesus.

    Lessons From the Wise—Go, Ready, Set. Matthew 2:1-2NIV It’s poor etiquette to attend a party and not bring the host/honoree a gift. We should feel privileged to receive an invitation to attend. Therefore, it’s extremely important that we bring the right gifts to the honoree—King Jesus. These ...read more

    Our Refuge And Strength Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Dec 26, 2021
     | 3,553 views

    This is a sermon for Epiphany Sunday. I've linked Psalm 46 with the hymn "We Three Kings" as a way of reminding ourselves who this child/King is why He is worthy of any all the gifts we have to give Him.

    Samuel could tell by the look on their faces that the elders weren’t making a social call to inquire about his health … and he was right. One of the elders cleared his throat. “Samuel … you are getting old and, well, no offense but we’re more than a little concerned about the future of our ...read more

    A new year's message to get us looking at God first.

    New Year Message January 2, 2022 This is really a great Sunday! When we think about the new year, there’s always the hope that the new year will be better than the prior year. If 2021 wasn’t the best year, then there’s the hope, maybe an expectation that 2022 will be better. And if 2021 was the ...read more

    Epiphany challenges us to think about who we might consider to be unworthy and how we, the Church, might reach out to them in Christian love.

    “The Challenge of Epiphany” Matthew 2:1-12 What image comes to your mind when you think of the Magi in Matthew’s Gospel? Having sat through a number of Christmas plays, it may be hard for us not to think of children wearing bathrobes and Burger King crowns, trying to look as important as ...read more

     | 2,305 views

    The only evidence the Magi had as they entered the shabby surroundings of a manger was that this baby was being shined on by a star.

    I saw a comic strip recently about the star that guided the magi from the east. The star is nervous and sweating while placing a desperate 911 call, saying: “Operator, these three men on camels have been following me all night! I stop, they stop. I go, they go. I’m so scared….” The epiphany is ...read more
