    The Mustard Seed Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Aug 31, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,197 views

    Sometimes we feel like we’re outnumbered by people who don’t believe in Jesus. There are times when we’re the only ones who want to do the right thing. But Jesus tells us that his kingdom may look small but in fact it will grow to be like a mighty tree th

    A Combined Children’s talk and sermon How big do you think God’s Kingdom is? As big as the Simpson desert or Kakadu? As big as this whole land of Australia? Jesus said the kingdom of heaven was like a mustard seed. Now I can’t show you a mustard seed but I did bring some other seeds with ...read more

    God’s gift of membership in his kingdom is a treasure that’s worth giving up everything else to possess. His gift of his revealed word is a treasure that we can bring out of our storerooms over and over again to apply to each new situation we find ourselv

    Can you imagine this man? Perhaps he’s ploughing a field, just a paid worker, but he suddenly comes across a great treasure, just below the surface. He can’t believe his luck! But what’s he to do? He knows he can’t just take it. The field doesn’t belong to him. Perhaps it’s too big to dig up and ...read more

    This message looks at the challenges of mainataining a heart that is soft toward God.

    Sermon for CATM – September 20, 2009 – The Sower and the Seed I admire gardeners. Do we have any gardeners here today? I admire gardeners because they do much more than put plants and seeds in the earth and watch them grow. There’s an art to gardening, to horticultural. My wife Barbara’s father ...read more

    We come full circle with the parables of Jesus. As we close this series, we are reminded the God’s Kingdom work starts small and seemingly insignificant but through God’s work becomes greater than we can imagine.

    The Parables of Jesus The Mustard Seed and The Yeast Matthew 13:31-33 September 20, 2009 This week we will return to Matthew and look at two small parables that are connected together but give us two varying perspectives of the kingdom. These are the parables of the mustard seed and yeast. If you ...read more

    Come: To A Harvested Self

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 5, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,608 views

    Evil and good live side by side, so we need to accept our sinfulness in order to receive our salvation. God in Christ takes on Himself the penalty we should receive.

    It would seem that the negative things in life grow of their own accord, but that the good things, positive things, take a lot of work. If you are at all a pessimist, you will agree that bad things, destructive things, just happen. Nobody has to make them happen. They happen on their own. But good ...read more

    What chokes the joy out of life? Too many cares that major on minors, and the relentless pursuit of material success. Jesus came to be authentically human among us.

    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,629 views

    The final judgment of God will separate between the saved and the unsaved like the threshing separates the chaff during harvest.

    Before the Industrial Revolution of the 1800’s which introduced mechanized farming methods, different tools were used in the process undertaken during the harvest of cereals (wheat, maize, barley, rice etc.). The cereal crop was usually beaten out on a hard threshing-floor using threshing-tool ...read more

    The Kingdom Of Heaven Is Like A Treasure In A Field Series

    The question isn't what is the treasure. The question is what is the Kingdom like? The answer is: a treasure

    It is a serendipitous story, which is a story about serendipity. Serendipity, isn’t that a great word? It is probably one of my favourite words. You know what serendipity means right? Serendipity means an unexpected discovery. You know when you are looking for something and you find ...read more

    He had it all, at least on the surface. A good business, a fine family, status in the community. He had everything it would appear, but not quite enough. Some men craved after gold or silver or jewels not this man. Those things were all so cold and inanimate, forged and moulded deep inside an ...read more

     | 14,884 views

    This is my fourth sermon in the series and looks at how we are to be productive as we act as God's kingdom here.

    It seems strange to mix the sacred with the everyday, to describe the eternal with the ordinary, the infinite with the finite. And yet that is exactly what Jesus did when looking for a way to illustrate the Kingdom of Heaven, a treasure in a field, a merchant looking for a pearl the tiniest of ...read more

    The Nature Of The Kingdom

    This message explores the nature of the Kingdom of heaven and of God and how Christians participate in bringing it "on earth as it is in heaven."

    We are learning the ways we "shrink Jesus down," from his robust loving nature. ? Last week we discovered his surprising agenda-a kingdom not a religious club. Transformed people of the king transforming their world. * The tension exists today between Jesus and religion. Religion establishes a ...read more

    Without truth, our charity degenerates into sentimentalism, and can be totally perverted into its opposite.

    Monday of 17th week in Course July 27, 2009 Caritas in Veritate (3) Joachim Jeremias taught that the parables about the Church should be read holistically. For instance, Jesus would say, “The kingdom of God is like this situation: you plant the tiniest seed, and without your doing much, it grows ...read more
