Not only was it the dawn of a new day, it was the dawn of a new week. Not only was it the dawn of a new week, but ...read more

    Sometimes we experience God’s love directly. But other times, we receive God’s love *through* things like prayer, reading the Bible, and Holy Communion

While the illustrations and language are updated, many of the concepts and ideas, as well as the general structure and message of the sermon, are taken directly from Wesley’s sermon entitled ...read more

    Easter means that Christ died; prophecy was fulfilled; God was satisfied; We are justified; have eternal life; and good news to share.

    "Easter Sunday" is celebrated by millions of people world-wide who remember the resurrection of Jesus on this special day. Many people think of it as "the most holy" of religious holidays; and for some, it marks the only time they attend church services. If it is as important as some would have us ...read more

    Passover: The origin of the Lord’s Supper is Passover. This holy day reminds us of all the Lord has done by freeing us from the bondage of sin and bringing us into the Promised Land of eternal life in Christ Jesus.

    Next week is Easter, and since it falls on the first of the quarter this year we will partake of the Lord’s Supper on Easter morning.

    The Meaning Of Love

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Oct 8, 2001

     | 11,992 views

    Jesus teaching on love is totally radical. He pushes us to practice love, rather than giving excuses, and he points out that to love is to be a neighbour to anyone we might come across who needs our care.

    You may remember the Beatles, back in the 60’s singing "All you need is Love." There’s no doubt that there was a great truth carried in those simple lyrics. If we were to look around the world today, it’s clear that a good dose of love would cure many of the world’s ills. But it’s easier said than ...read more
