  • The Magnificat

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Dec 30, 2003
    based on 54 ratings
     | 20,100 views

    Mary’s Song is her response to her calling to be the mother of the Messiah and is a Personal Testimony to God’s grace and a Prophetic Testament to God’s redemptive purposes.

    THE MAGNIFICAT The Magnificat is one of the most beautiful songs of the Christian faith - it’s Mary’s Song. William Barclay writes: "There’s a loveliness in the Magnificat but in that loveliness there’s dynamite." It’s revolutionary because the world’s values are turned upside down. I read that ...read more

  • Putting Christ Back Into Christmas

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Dec 30, 2003
    based on 44 ratings
     | 4,493 views

    A parable comparing a jigsaw with a piece missing to Christmas without Christ.

    Here’s a Christmas cracker type of puzzle: "Why is Christmas without Jesus like this jigsaw?" (Hold up a picture made to look like a jigsaw but with a piece missing.) Answer: "Because it’s got a piece missing!" Of course the word ’piece’ of the jigsaw is spelt differently from in the Christmas ...read more

  • The Seven Words From The Cross

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Mar 16, 2004
    based on 538 ratings
     | 869,717 views

    The Seven Words of Jesus from the Cross are a wonderful commentary in his own words of Forgiveness, Salvation, Love, Atonement, Suffering, Victory and Security.

    The Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ is the corner stone of our faith. It is the chosen symbol of the Christian faith. Thank God, we see it now as an empty cross because the seeming tragedy for good and apparent victory for evil was overturned by the power and purposes of God into the triumph of ...read more

  • The Amazing Grace Of God

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Mar 5, 2004
    based on 58 ratings
     | 5,078 views

    Exploring the Grace of God by asking Why it’s so necessary; What has it done for us?; Why it’s so amazing; and What are the obligations in response to God’s grace.

    One of the most frequently used words in Christian worship is the word ‘Grace’. We bring our services to a close with what we call ‘the grace’. It’s a wonderful benediction because it sends us out into the world with the assurance that God has been with us and will be with us until we meet again ...read more

  • A Christian Olympic Champion

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Aug 11, 2004
    based on 70 ratings
     | 4,764 views

    The story of Eric Liddle who won the gold medal for the 400 metres in the Paris olympics of 1924 and remained true to his Christian faith, featured in the film "Chariots of Fire".

    A CHRISTIAN OLYMPIC CHAMPION Here’s a symbol I’m sure you’ll recognise: it’s the Olympic Rings ( http://farrer.riv.csu.edu.au/ASGAP/APOL9/olympic.gif ) I wonder if you know what they represent? It’s the five continents – Africa, the Americas, Asia, Australia, and Europe. You see how they’re all ...read more

  • Dirty Rags

    "All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags! (Isa 64:6).

    Do you have chores to do at home, you know, jobs to help in the house? When I was busy at work in the office, I didn’t have too much spare time but when I retired my wife soon found me some jobs. I had to take a crash course in cleaning the silver. The trouble with silver is that it soon gets ...read more

  • Saints With Broken Haloes

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Oct 31, 2002
    based on 55 ratings
     | 3,105 views

    All Christians are ’saints’ but with broken haloes; God wants to restore and shine through us - see the story of Winchester Cathedral window.

    CALLED TO BE SAINTS Many years ago the bishops in England thought that there were so many good people to remember, that one day should be set apart commemorate all who had lived Godly lives, and so November 1st was designated as "All Saints Day". When St Paul wrote his letter to the Christians ...read more

  • Leaning Tower Of Pisa

    based on 60 ratings
     | 5,037 views

    Jesus urges us to build our lives on the solid foundation of trust and faith in him - see story and picture of the Leaning Tower of Pisa.

    LEANING TOWER OF PISA Every year thousands of tourists go to a city in Italy called Pisa to see the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa in Italy. I went to see it some years ago but couldn’t get close because it was in a dangerous condition as it could topple over at any time. That’s why it’s a famous ...read more

  • Mona Lisa - Priceless And Unique

    based on 84 ratings
     | 3,712 views

    Everyone is priceless and unique in god’s sight - see story and picture of the Mona Lisa.

    PRICELESS AND UNIQUE I’ve got something priceless and unique to show you. What do you think it is? The Mona Lisa. This is one of the world’s famous art treasures. It’s hung in the Paris art museum, the Louvre. It’s so famous it’s got a room to itself, with special lighting and security guards. ...read more

  • The Magnet

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Sep 29, 2003
    based on 57 ratings
     | 4,028 views

    A children’s ilustration of the power of a magnet to attract iron as a parable telling that Christians have a similar response to God.

    THE MAGNET I was doing a repair job out of doors when unfortunately I dropped a tin of small nails on the gravel driveway. It was important that none be left mixed up in the gravel as I didn’t want the car to get a puncture! But it was difficult to find them among the loose gravel. Then I ...read more

  • The Year Of Jubilee

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on May 6, 2001
    based on 147 ratings
     | 40,383 views

    Jesus offered the people in the syngogue at Nazareth ’the Year of Jubilee’ - release from the bondage that the fall of man has brought but they refused to accept it.

    THE YEAR OF JUBILEE We’re going to have to use our imagination this morning/evening. We must imagine that we’re transported in time to the year 28 AD, when Jesus was beginning his ministry in the land of Israel. Instead of sitting in a church building we’re sitting in a synagogue in Nazareth, a ...read more

  • God's Calendar

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Jun 4, 2009
    based on 5 ratings
     | 12,520 views

    God has a timetable of redemption for His creation - God’s Calendar - covering the Birth of Jesus, His Cross, Resurrection, Ascension, the Day of Pentecost and the Second Coming of Jesus.

    GOD’S CALENDAR I think every home will have at least one calendar telling the family of coming events, marking the next birthday or when the school term ends and the holidays begin! They’re useful things to have so we know what’s going to happen. Do you think God’s got a calendar? I think He ...read more

  • The Door With No Handle Series

     | 13,462 views

    The painting by Holman Hunt shows Jesus outside a door with no handle requesting entry but will he be admitted?

    Take a look at this picture. It’s a rather famous painting by an artist whose name was Holman Hunt. The original is hung in St Paul’s Cathedral in London. If you look at it closely there’s something rather odd about it. Can you spot it? It’s unusual because it’s a door with no handle! Now ...read more

  • Triumphant In Temptation

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Jan 18, 2008
    based on 10 ratings
     | 4,298 views

    Temptation is as old as mankind, seen first in the Prototype in the Garden of Eden when the First Adam fell, but the Second Adam was Triumphant in the Wilderness from which we can be forearmed to meet Satan’s temptations.

    Why does God allow temptation? That, together with the origin of evil, are great mysteries and they’re closely related. The Bible gives us no explanation as to the ultimate origin of evil but is undoubtedly connected with the devil. When we open the pages of Scripture he already existed. The ...read more

  • Leap Year

    Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Feb 10, 2008
    based on 10 ratings
     | 3,738 views

    In Leap Year, an extra day is given, but our days on Earth are few and uncertain, unlike God who is eternal but through faith in Jesus we may have eternal life with Him.

    One of the most frequent words in the Bible is the word ‘Day’. It’s used many hundreds of occasions because we’re living in time. When God created the world Genesis tells us it was over 6 days – how long those days were is not really known but on each we’re told ‘there was evening and there was ...read more
