The magi looked for Jesus where He was to be found. Unfortunately, we don’t always look where He is. He has promised that if we look for Him we’ll find Him. Let’s look where He’s promised to be.

A sermon for the Sunday of Epiphany, encouraging us to develop in ourselves the capacity to experience our own epiphanies of faith

Matthew 2:1-12 Experiencing Epiphany It isn’t very often that, here in (this part of) the UK, we get a ‘White Christmas’. In fact, last year (2008) we had a White Easter!

Jesus was born in Bethlehem and yet very few knew about His birth. How is it that the King of all eternity comes in the form of human flesh and it is not on the front page of the paper?

Of Superstars And Starlight Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 4, 2009

| 3,678 views

We have not yet learned the difference between superficial superstars and the starlight wisdom of Jesus. He transforms gold into Kingdom power, frankincense into respect, and myrrh into the preface for resurrection.

In 1970 Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd Webber brought out a rock opera with the provocative title, Jesus Christ Superstar. Predictably, not everyone was amused. Some condemned it as sacrilegious. But if you listened carefully and let your defenses down a notch or two, their work communicated the ...read more

When ‘bumped’ or jolted or walloped, the content of who we are is laid bare.

Whether its Cinderella’s evil stepmother, Snow White’s jealous queen or 101 Dalmatians ‘Cruella De Vil’, the evil one plays a part that amplifies the drama. However, as we have discovered, the trend in these classics seem to be a bad ‘gal’! ...read more

Wise Men Sought Jesus And They Still Do

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Dec 18, 2011

based on 5 ratings

| 5,302 views

A short talk for our all-age Nativity service, a week before Christmas. This year I focused on the phrase WISE MEN SOUGHT JESUS - THEY STILL DO. I remember seeing that on a car sticker 30 years ago.

Wise men sought Jesus and they still do. Although the Bible never calls them Wise men, the Magi (2:1) were non-Jewish, religious men from the east who studied the stars. The Bible doesn’t tell us how many Magi came to worship Jesus, but they were Magi plural, not single; and they were indeed wise. ...read more

Troubled At His Appearing And Presence?

Contributed by Victor Ramlall on Dec 20, 2011

| 3,000 views
