    We’re to be counter-cultural in the way we fight against the social pressures of our world where the norm is to respond to hurt with anger and revenge, where lust is seen as normal, faithfulness as an option. Rather we’re to respond with the servant love

    According to the Age this week, the seven deadly sins have been knocked for six. No longer do we worry about sloth, gluttony or lust. In fact most respondents to a recent survey carried out by the BBC said they rather enjoyed those particular vices. The trouble is, according to a professor of ...read more

    based on 14 ratings
     | 5,265 views

    The Sermon on the Mount is an invitation – to taste and see this God, to join his club and deepen his kind of life skills.

    Turning the Other Cheek I’ve been trying to figure out a realistic application for turning the other cheek ever since as a young person a mentor of mine once pointed out to that to teach his son this attitude was a license to getting him bullied at school. No way am I going to encourage my son ...read more

    Some say truth is realitive...but, Jesus didn’t think so. Just what is truth suppose to mean for a Christ-follower?

    “What Is Your Word Worth?” Matthew 5:33-37 Daniel Webster once wrote, “There is nothing so powerful as truth – and often, nothing so strange.” Perhaps he had an understanding into the insight that Jesus had about both the need for truth and the difficulty in attaining it. So far in this message ...read more

    Fifth sermon in a series on the use and abuse of the tongue.

    The religious leaders of Jesus’ day had developed a curious hierarchy of oaths, which were categorized in such a way that some oaths were considered more binding than others. This is illustrated by what Jesus had to say to the Scribes and Pharisees in Matthew 23:16-22 (read passage). These oaths ...read more

    Just like the Pharisees, so many are concerned with outward appearances but Jesus teaches us that we need to be concerned with matters of the heart and that once the heart is under control, outward appearances as well as our actions will take care of them

    You live in a fishbowl and people are watching to see if your walk matches your talk.

    I remember when I was pastor of a church and living in the parsonage directly across from the church. It was like living in a fishbowl.
