     | 578 views

    then I realized that God uses not just our gifts, but our thorns too

    Country music often tells stories about real life problems, thus the joke, “What do you get when you play country music backward?” You get back your wife, your dog, and your truck. One song tells about a man taking his beloved wife, whom he truly loves, to his 10th High School reunion, where he ...read more

  • Twelve Ordinary Men

     | 12,870 views

    No one would have labeled this group "Most Likely To Succeed" in their High School Year Book. It is likely that even some of the disciples would not have chosen each other to be members of the group. We would not have selected any of them to lead ministries here in our Church.

    TITLE: TWELVE ORDINARY MEN SCRIPTURE: ST. LUKE 6:12-16 (There is no claim as to originality as many sources were drawn from for the development of this message. I have adapted to my style and transitions in support of the theses statement of this message) This morning we begin our walk through ...read more

  • Nothing Ordinary About Our Call

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 18, 2022
     | 1,182 views

    Our evangelical mission is anything but ordinary.

    This Sunday is best called the “3rd Sunday after Pentecost.” I say it is best called that because it reminds us that Christ’s Catholic Church is Pentecostal–evangelical in the original sense. We are empowered by the Holy Spirit, working in us individually, as families, and as community to bring the ...read more

     | 3,541 views

    I first put this Lenten address together in 2008, and when the Vicar's wife said she found it good and thought it should go on "Sermoncentral" - so who was I to disagree. I offer this series as a help and it is based on Richard Foster's excellent book Prayer

    Introduction. This series on Prayer is based on Richard Foster’s BRILLIANT book simply called "Prayer". If you want to study Prayer seriously it is a book you must read. Story: This series of studies came out a time of retreat at Mariastein, near Basle in Switzerland in October last ...read more

    Liturgy of Abundance vs. the Myth of Scarcity

    Drawing on conflict theory, David G. Forney cites Walter Brueggemann's article "Liturgy of Abundance [and] the Myth of Scarcity" to conclude that, with the feeding of the five thousand (Mark 6:30-44), there is a contest between the myth of scarcity in the Book of Exodus and a liturgy ...read more

     | 1,448 views

    In the Eucharist, Jesus inaugurated a new mode of presence in “Lord’s supper” (1 Cor 11:20) or the “breaking of the bread” (Acts 2:42,46)

    (1) What the Eucharist is not—Cannibalism. Two men who lived in a small town got into a terrible dispute that they could not resolve. So, they decided to talk to the wisest man in town. The first man went to the house of the wise man and told him his version of what happened. When he finished, ...read more

    Church teaching and holy doctrine illuminate the inherent structure of any act of believing.

    Mr. Mulla Nasruddin’s house was on fire, so he ran up to his roof for safety. There he was, precariously perched on the roof, when his friends gathered in the street below holding a stretched out blanket to him and shouting, “Jump, Mullah, jump!” “Oh no, I won’t,” said the Mullah. “I know you ...read more

    "Everyone is looking for you." Music to a co-dependent’s ears.

    We hear in Mark 1:29 today that “Jesus entered the house of Simon [Peter] and Andrew.” A team of archaeologists have discovered this exact house in Capernaum made up of black basalt walls that are still in very good shape.
