  • Rich Young Ruler

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 155 ratings
     | 33,662 views

    An attractive young prospect for the Kingdom of God was told that he valued his earthly possessions too much and had to discard them.

    THE RICH YOUNG RULER Jesus loved meeting people. One of the fascinating features of the Gospels is to listen in to the interviews that Jesus had with a variety of people. He was always ready to listen to their problems, to answer their questions as he walked the highways of Palestine. Jesus ...read more

  • The Resurrection Journey To Faith

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 334 ratings
     | 12,806 views

    Mary Magdalene’s world had collapsed on the crucifixion of Jesus and she came to the tomb Searching, Learning, Seeing and then Believing.

    The resurrection of Jesus demands a personal response. Pollsters take pleasure in getting the opinion of the general public, asking, "Do you believe that Jesus rose from the dead?" They are keen to tell us: what percentage believe he actually physically came to life again; how many say he didn’t ...read more

  • Why The Cross?

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 194 ratings
     | 24,188 views

    Paul is adamant that the preaching of the Cross is central to the Gospel and what is should mean to believers.

    There’s a striking phrase in St Paul’s letter to the Galatians: “God forbid that I should glory save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ” (6:14). When we come across that sort of statement it can be helpful to ask the question, “Why did Paul write like that?” To ask ourselves, “Why the ...read more

  • The Ark Of The Lord

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 120 ratings
     | 16,155 views

    The story of the Ark’s return to Jerusalem is a sharp reminder of what happens if God’s instructions are flouted and the blessing that obedience brings.

    THE ARK OF THE LORD I expect some of you will, like me, have wasted a couple of hours watching the film "Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark". It’s a fantasy adventure story loosely based on the fact that the Ark of the Covenant was lost without trace nearly two and a half thousand ...read more

  • Paradise - Lost And Regained

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Oct 18, 2000
    based on 51 ratings
     | 6,266 views

    Our first parents were place in Paradise and through wilful disobedience it turned to Paradise Lost bringing discord and death but God in Christ made possible Paradise Regained by redemption.

    PARADISE - LOST AND REGAINED The Internet has been both a boon and a blight. On 11 May 2000 a lady found a new e-mail message on her computer, which simply said, "I love you". It looked innocent enough, perhaps even romantic. Like most of us would, she clicked to open the message, and the ...read more

  • Bless The Lord, O My Soul

    David bares his soul in recording his relationship with God - who Forgives, who Heals, who Preserves, who Provides and who Satisfies.

    Do you ever talk to yourself? In Psalm 103 King David is addressing himself. “Bless the Lord”, he exclaims, “Bless the Lord, O my soul”. It’s clear that he’s holding a conversation with himself. This isn’t by any means a unique experience for a believer. In fact it’s often a sign that a ...read more

  • Festival Of Lights For Jews And Christians

    based on 54 ratings
     | 4,044 views

    Christians celebrate a Festival of Lights at Christmas and the Jews have Hanukkah, both pictures of the Spirit of God shining out in a dark world - see picture of Menorah.

    FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS FOR JEWS AND CHRISTIANS This Christmas the lights in town and on houses have been better than ever. I expect you had Advent candles in church to remind you of the Christmas festival. But it’s not only Christians who celebrate with lights - the Jews do so as well. I’ve got ...read more

  • Don't Be Like The Chameleon

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Nov 6, 2002
    based on 51 ratings
     | 11,210 views

    The chameleon is an unclean creature. Christians should avoid its characteristic of changing opinions to suite our environment.

    THE CHAMELEON When the new nation of Israel was getting ready to go into the land that God had promised them, their leader, Moses, gave them instructions on how they should live as God’s people. God wanted them to prosper, but for this to happen, they had to avoid certain animals that could harm ...read more

  • New Year - Fresh Start

    The Roman god Janus - a man with two faces - has given the first month of the year the name of January, from whom we can learn much - see picture

    JANUS A few days ago we entered a New Year. Who can tell me the name of the month that starts the year? January. Do you know how it got its name? It comes from the Roman god, Janus. Look at his picture. Isn’t it strange - he’s got two faces! He’s looking both forward and backwards - at the ...read more

  • Passport To Heaven

    based on 74 ratings
     | 20,441 views

    A passport and a visa are vital documents in travelling on Earth but so is the need for a "passport" to heaven.

    PASSPORT TO HEAVEN A passport is a very important document if you want to travel from one country to another. It’s a command from one country’s government to the country you want to visit, to allow you to enter its territory and look after you while you are there. It’s almost impossible to enter ...read more

  • Bethlehem - House Of Bread

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Dec 1, 2002
    based on 77 ratings
     | 5,590 views

    "Bethlehem" means "house of bread", reminding us that Jesus is the Bread of Life.

    BETHLEHEM - THE HOUSE OF BREAD One of my favourite carols is "O little town of Bethlehem". Do you know what happened there? It’s where Jesus was born - a town not far from Jerusalem. And do you know what "Bethlehem" means? It’s "the house of bread". Jesus was born in Bethlehem - in a stable. ...read more

  • The Lamb Of God

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Jan 4, 2005
    based on 55 ratings
     | 13,519 views

    The astonishing vision of the throneroom of heaven portrays Jesus as Lamb of God as also the Lion of Judah, giving the Description, the Identity, the Achievements and Worship of the Lamb.

    A young undergraduate at Cambridge who had never read the Bible before was given a New Testament to read. When he had done so, he commented, ‘It was a bit repetitious at the beginning, but I did enjoy the science-fiction at the end!’ Well, I think most of us would say it’s rather more than that! ...read more

  • Are You A Spiritual Pilgrim Or Tourist?

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Jul 15, 2004
    based on 46 ratings
     | 8,415 views

    Abraham is shown to be a spiritual Pilgrim on his journey to the City of God, as seen in his Call to a New Life, his Response by Faith, his Courageous Commitment, his Persistence in Difficulty and in Reaching his Goal.

    Istanbul, formerly the historic Constantinople, was an early centre of Christianity. One of the tourist attractions is the huge building called the Aghia Sophia. The guide summarised its history as a church, then a mosque and now a tourist attraction, like this: 800 years dedicated to Christ; ...read more

  • The Nativity Off Script! Series

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Jan 1, 2009
     | 4,850 views

    A poem, ’The Ode to the Innkeeper’ tells of being too busy to recognise Jesus and so leaving him out of our life and a nativity story which points us to receiving Him.

    THE NATIVITY OFF SCRIPT! The innkeeper at Bethlehem was one of the minor characters of the Nativity. He couldn’t find room for Mary as an expectant mother. Why? This poem tells he story. It’s called: THE ODE TO THE INNKEEPER The Innkeeper stands, he is guarding the door He’s got all he ...read more

  • John The Baptist And The Messiah

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Nov 10, 2007
    based on 19 ratings
     | 12,879 views

    John the Baptist had doubts as to Jesus being the Messiah so asked for evidence, receiving details of His Mission and Identity and a Commendation.

    JOHN THE BAPTIST AND THE MESSIAH John the Baptist was a great personality, very much in the mould of the Old Testament prophets. In fact he was the last in their line. As a young man he’d had an inner urge to serve God. No doubt his parents had told him of the special circumstances surrounding ...read more
