     | 2,063 views

    How can we hate our parents, partners and children? It has to be the most offensive exhortation Jesus ever gave - telling us that we have to hate the ones we love th most...

    As soon as I noticed that our Gospel reading today was the one that begins by telling us that we’ve got to ’hate our mothers and fathers’, I decided then and there to give my sermon today on Paul’s Letter to Philemon! No, as much as I’d like to do that, I feel I have to stick with "hate your ...read more

    In the midst of the current debates about which worship style is best, we often lose sight of what is really important about worship.

    Worship: Style Verses Substance Part I Psalm 2:11 Purpose: To explain some of the main elements of biblical worship. Aim: I want the listener to work at focusing on God more and on everything else less. INTRODUCTION: Everybody worships. Worship is the reason we exist. Worship is a part of who we ...read more

    This passage in Revelation 7 came to light at a time when the church was dealing with a lot of pain and death through persecution, and when indeed every victory that they di...

    It’s an image of the coming Kingdom - Heaven, the Kingdom of God, the New Jerusalem. Call it what you will, it is an image of the final dawning of the new age - the climaxing of human history, and, strangely, it seems quite appropriate to be talking about it today. The end of the world is becoming ...read more

    The Annunciation

     | 12,846 views

    Sermon discusses Mary’s willingess to become God’s handmaiden. Three lessons are also examined: We are never alone, We are part of a greater plan, and Being faithful leads to greater opportunites to serve God.

    The Annunciation Introduction The other day I was scanning a popular men’s magazine and came across a quiz that tested, “How Daring Are You?” At first, I was certain that I’d score pretty well because I consider myself an innovator and risk taker. For example, I tried Cherry Coke ...read more

    We must put to the test what we hear to determine if it is from God.

    Putting It To The Test Text: 1 Jn. 4:1-6 Introduction 1.

    A BIG QUESTION - Does happiness really exist? In the Sermon on the Mount Jesus explained that happiness does indeed exist. He even went so far as to clearly show us where it is to be found...And how to get there.

    He came down with them and stood on a level place, with a great crowd of his disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judea, Jerusalem, and the coast of Tyre and Sidon. They had come to hear him and to be healed of their diseases; and those who were troubled with unclean spirits were ...read more

    PERSEVERE TO VICTORY Exodus 5:1-10, 20-21 As if by enchantment Moses materialized from Egypt’s shimmering sands: from a forty year exile; resolute in a God-given commission to liberate Israel; performing signs that convinced their elders and the people.

    Who Am I?

    based on 6 ratings
     | 5,351 views

    We spend so much of our lives unsure of the answer to this question. If I don’t know who I am, then what I stand for and what I believe in are easily swayed by circumstances. Knowing who I am is critical to getting through life.

    In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to you, Lord, my rock and my redeemer. Amen. (Psalm 19:14) Who am I? … We spend so much of our lives unsure of the answer to this simple question. We look at ...read more

    Touching The Lame, Lepers And Legalists Series

    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,025 views

    Jesus changed the Lame, Lepers and Legalists. Well, almost. Here we find the Pharisees burden and the Lord’s blessings regarding the Sabbath.

    Now it happened that He went through the grain fields on the Sabbath; and as they went His disciples began to pluck the heads of grain. And the Pharisees said to Him, "Look, why do they do what is not lawful on the Sabbath?" But He said to them, "Have you never read what David did when he was in ...read more

    No More Bread

     | 5,285 views

    Our constant claims of hot bread backed only by stale crumbs on frayed carpets of man’s tradition have left countless generation’s hungry, homeless, and with nowhere else to go but Moab.

    No More Bread, “In the House Of God” The priority of God’s presence has been lost in the modern Church. We‘re like bakeries that are open, but have no bread. And furthermore, we’re not interest in selling bread. We just like the chit-chat that goes on around cold ...read more

    Driving Under The Influence

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,088 views

    Energy and passion in worship are fine, but they must push us toward authentic living and toward dedicated mission, else they will be destructive.

    I could not help noticing this car that morning. It was a tiny little car, one of those that looks like a sardine can on wheels. The rust spots and the dents suggested that it had survived more than its share of bumps and bruises. But that was not all that made me notice this little puddle ...read more

    One Breath, One Flesh

    Pentecost 1986: We crave intimacy, and cannot live without it. It is not found in ceaseless work and striving, but in simply receiving grace.

    The peculiar thing about our times is that while we seem to be so free and easy, so relaxed about what used to be thought of as intimate, yet at the same time we are hung up, truly hung up, about intimacy. I say the strange thing about us in this last half of the 20th century is that on the one ...read more
