    Party On! Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 31, 2019

    We all know that there were parties last evening, some that lasted well into the morning hours. But I venture to say that these parties were not celebrations of religious faith, such as the ones implied by today’s Scriptures.

    Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God Party On! Today’s Scriptures are so brief that if our minds are not focused, we might not remember any of them. I’ve wondered if that was an act of mercy on the part of those who back in the 1960's put together the three-year cycle of readings, and saw New ...read more

     | 3,158 views

    January 1, 2020

    Today on January 1st, it’s all about sanctifying time. Psalm 90:12 says, “Lord, teach us to number our days, that we may gain wisdom of heart.” Romans 13: You know what time it is, how it is now the moment for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we became ...read more

    Effective Witnessing To Christ

    Contributed by Revd. Martin Dale on Apr 22, 2017
     | 2,741 views

    The reason that the Early Church was able to preach the Gospel is because the Holy Spirit fell on them at Pentecost.

    THE ETERNAL GOD AND THE BREVITY OF LIFE Psalm 90 Psalm 90:1. It is remarkable that the children of Israel survived 400 years in Egypt, and for some of that time under unspeakable oppression. Yet despite their hard labour and sorrow, the LORD had been their dwelling place “from generation to ...read more

    Sinful But Called

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 5, 2025
     | 498 views

    The power of God’s word, spoken to Peter and the others by the very Word of God, Son of the Father, was enough to kick in the adrenaline and motivate the fishermen to fish longer in the worst time of day in the part of the lake with the worst prospects.

    Fifth Sunday in Course 2025 The first thing that strikes me as I read today’s Gospel is that Peter and his fishing crew had been working all night and then had cleaned their nets. These professionals had just worked at least ten hours and were ready to go home. Jesus came along with hundreds of ...read more

    The First Sunday Of Advent, Year C: Not Very Christmasy.

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Nov 12, 2024
     | 1,252 views

    The Church tells the Christmas Story backwards: the focus is to prepare for the coming of the Lord: at the end of the world, and when Christ comes for us at the end of our individual worlds, at death.

    Our Gospel from St. Luke today is a little unsettling. Not very Christmasy. Unseasonal thoughts about the end of the world. Yet, the word Advent from the Latin, adventus, means “coming.” The Church tells the Christmas Story backwards: the focus is to prepare for the coming of the Lord: at the end ...read more

     | 23,780 views

    John Bunyan, in his “Pilgrim’s Progress”, has made many people realized that Christianity is not just a religion, it’s more than a religion, it’s a way of life, or maybe in this case I would like to say, it is someone’s journey with God and to God’s heart

    Our Journey With God Psalms 23:1-6 1 Peter 2:21, 25 PROLOGUE John Bunyan, in his “Pilgrim’s Progress”, has made many people realized that Christianity is not just a religion –in fact, it is not- it’s more than a religion, it’s a way of life, or maybe in this case I would like to say, it is ...read more

    We can step out in faith and climb mountains, or we can keep to ourselves and trip over stones.

    Climbing over mountains, tripping over stones 1 Sam 17:1-57 and John 11:1-50 The style of this is actually segmented narrative, telling three stories at the same time and bringing them together at the end. 1st Story: (1 Sam. 17:1) 1SA 17:1 Now the Philistines gathered their forces for war and ...read more
