    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.

    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

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Dec 31, 2021
     | 2,295 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

    Once Christmas is over, we usually pack up our decorations, lights, ribbon, dishes, Christmas tree, etc., and carry them to the attic for storage until next year. In other words, we put Christmas away. This isn't God's will; we should live it all year round!

    CHRISTMAS IN THE REARVIEW MIRROR? Matthew 2:1-12 INTRODUCTION A. ILLUSTRATION 1. It was a few days after Christmas. A family was busy cleaning up and putting away the Christmas decorations. As they took down the Christmas tree, the son asked “what are you doing?” The parents said, “We’re putting ...read more

    Joseph, Mary and Jesus give us a model of the family all of ours should strive to become.

    Feast of the Holy Family 2022 If there is anything we can be certain of when we consider the past fifty or sixty years, it is that there has been a massive cultural, media and even governmental assault on the natural family. I say “natural” family because one of the prongs of this assault has been ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Dec 31, 2022
     | 2,337 views

    Do not seek vengeance on others or render evil to anyone. Injustice is everywhere but leave it in the Lord’s hands. Then we have the words “Pray without ceasing” and we look at a lot of references for that. We will consider joy and rejoicing as well.

    MESSAGE 11 - 1 THESSALONIANS CHAPTER 5:15-17 – VENGEANCE, REJOICING ALWAYS, AND PRAYING WITHOUT CEASING There is a fair bit of scripture in this message. It deals with vengeance, injustice, persecution and rejoicing and we look at a lot of verses dealing with those matters. PART 1 ...read more

     | 1,466 views

    The further you pursue science in any discipline, you're going to get to Jesus Christ. Because that's where the truth is. If you have an open heart and you pursue science to its fullest, you're going to get to God and you're going to understand more about who God is.

The story takes place, I'm going to say, about 600 years before with a man named Belteshazzar. You might not know him. You might know him as Daniel. The ...read more

    Homily for Monday in 3rd Week of Advent Balaam was a prophet for hire. He was a wealthy and respected prophet of Yahweh, but he was not an Israelite. Balak, a king who was in the way of Israel as they moved toward the Promised Land, was nervous about all these people moving across his territory. ...read more
