    One of the results of the resurrection is that we no longer have to live in fear.

    The Discovery Channel recently did a story on the Top Ten Phobias that people have (www.exn.ca). Phobia comes from the Greek word for fear, but refers to a panic that is completely out of proportion to the perceived threat behind it. Here are some of the top fear factors. #10: Necrophobia.

    What happens to believers when they die.

    As we saw last week, many of us have gotten some pretty distorted pictures of what heaven is like from the culture around us. I read this week about a young boy, caught in mischief by his mother. She asked, "How do you expect to get into heaven?" He thought for a moment and then said, "Well, I’ll ...read more

    In Deuteronomy 20 Moses tells the Israelite people how God wants them to conquer the promised land. He provides the principles of war. Paul tells us in Ephesians 6 that we fight a war today. Are the principles similar?

    In Deuteronomy 20 Moses tells the Israelite people how God wants them to conquer the promised land. He provides the principles of War. In short they are: 1. Don’t be afraid (vs. 1) 2. Be courageous and dependent on God (vs. 2-4) 3. Offer peace (to those outside the promised land) (vs. ...read more

    “When this letter has been read among you, have it also read in the church of the Laodiceans; and see that you also read the letter from Laodicea.” Sometimes we forget that the letters Paul wrote are not mere theological treatises, meant to provide sermon fodder for preachers desperate for ...read more

    Our Refuge And Strength Series

    This is a sermon for Epiphany Sunday. I've linked Psalm 46 with the hymn "We Three Kings" as a way of reminding ourselves who this child/King is why He is worthy of any all the gifts we have to give Him.

    Samuel could tell by the look on their faces that the elders weren’t making a social call to inquire about his health … and he was right. One of the elders cleared his throat. “Samuel … you are getting old and, well, no offense but we’re more than a little concerned about the future of our ...read more

     | 4,960 views

    In Colossians 1:15–19, Paul reveals our Lord’s true identity by viewing Him in relation to three things: 1) The Father (Colossians 1:15), 2) The Universe (Colossians 1:16-17), and 3) The Church (Colossians 1:18-19).

    If there are two things that have a tremendous bearing on our future experiences, they are assumptions and expectation. We tend to make assumptions about people and expect certain actions accordingly. As the Jews experienced Christ's ride into Jerusalem that first Palm Sunday, they assumed He was ...read more

    Many of the things we hear and are exposed to on a regular basis shape the way we think throughout life. And for a majority of the time, our thoughts ultimately determine the actions that we take and the conclusions that we reach..

    One of the things that I have discovered... not only about my own life... but about the lives of all of us as Children of God... is that whenever we face days of conflict or days of adversity, our frame of mind (our mental attitude) (our thoughts) usually determine how we come out of these ...read more

    Because of our tendency to pass quick and critical judgment on others, our Lord has chosen to address this issue. Chapter 7 verses 1-12 addresses an issue plaguing the religion of Jesus’ day and of ours, that of misdirected effort.

    What You See May Not Be The Truth Matthew 7:1-12 A while back, I read the very distressing account of an incident in the life of a young bachelor. He worked in an office where every year the boss gave each employee a turkey as a bonus for the holiday season. Of course, the bachelor could never ...read more
