    Are you listening to God? Do you know how?

    A man was having difficulty communicating with his wife and concluded that she was becoming hard of hearing. So he decided to conduct a test. One evening he sat in a chair on the far side of the room. Her back was to him and she could not see him. Very quietly he whispered, "Can you hear me?" ...read more

    What had Martha done wrong? Wasn't she being a servant? Wasn't she serving Jesus and his men? Was Jesus telling her she shouldn't have been preparing the meal? Or was there something else wrong here?

    OPEN: A mother and her young daughter had been driving on the highway for a couple of hours and traffic had been difficult… in fact, some of the other drivers had been downright frustrating. They wouldn’t use their turn signals, she’d been cut off, tail gated, and then there had ...read more

    Learning To Listen

    The greatest commandment (according to Jesus) is found in the Shema (Shmah). So it would do us good to really listen to what God wants to say to us today. Revelation 2:11 says, “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”

    Learning to Listen Deuteronomy 6:4-9 4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. 5 Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. 6 These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. 7 Impress them on your children. ...read more

    A short talk encouraging people to listen to Jesus - to ditch our daydreaming, to deal with any disinterest, and to discontinue any disobedience.

    I remember it well. It was a maths lesson. I’d been chatting to my friends on either side of me, and I’d also had a good hard stare out of the classroom window. I wasn’t being badly disruptive but with hindsight I was certainly flitting between daydreaming, disinterest and ...read more

    Thursday chapel PASTORS DAY John 10: "My sheep listen to my voice. I know them, and they follow me."

    Jesus teaches us about the "narrow door" of salvation. We are warned to avoid the "broad" way that leads to destruction.

    Are You Listening? Luke 13.22-30 The Bible is the most important book in the world. It is God’s word, and it clearly reveals the truth of this world. It is the cradle of Christ and the message of salvation. Of all the things we do in this life... work, eat, sleep, care for our ...read more

    Sermon for Advent 4, Year A. Sermon contrasts how Joseph could have treated Mary and how he actually acted toward her. Mary has a story (and thus Jesus) because Joseph listened with love and showed mercy.

    Preparing for 2020: Listening with Love I feel for Joseph. Not only because he’s often overlooked, but in some ways I understand what it’s like to be Joseph. In 1994 I found a new level of solidarity with Joseph. The children’s director concluded that the pastor’s grandson didn’t need a “speaking” ...read more

    Acting on faith waters faith. Listening to sermons and reading the Bible and doing nothing in response leads to...nothing. God wants way more than nothing for His people. So He's given us the gift and calling of being doers of the Word and not only hearers.

    Sermon for January 26, 2020 - Listening and Doing [I am thankful to William Barclay's exposition of James chapter 1, which influences much of this message directly and indirectly.] Did you know that God truly cares about every aspect of your life? Sometimes people say that God is too big or ...read more

    Have you ever forgotten something important? Was it important to you or perhaps your spouse. As the years go by, is it harder to remember? Is the long-term memory more fresh in your mind?

    I hope I never forget my wife’s birthday, but then how could I? I had major surgery in 2015 on her birthday. It is ingrained in my mind. I will never forget that date but I recently forgot our anniversary for the first time. That’s terrible. Makes you want to be young again, doesn’t it? They ...read more
