Should Protestants Be Allowed To Have An Opinion Regarding The New Pope?

It has been suggested that it is a tragedy for Evangelicals to pray and fast regarding the new pope as called for by Rick Warren.

Stephen, Love And Truth

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Dec 21, 2013

St Stephen's sermon was very aggressive, and would not really be expected to work, but his core truth is real.

St. Stephen December 26 2013 Lumen Fidei I grew up in the fifties and sixties, and being a Catholic was “okay” with the culture back then. So this quote from Jesus about being hated by all seemed to be referring to anti-Catholic bigotry from the early 1900s. After all, wasn’t ...read more

God Bless You

Contributed by Grant Van Boeschoten on Apr 5, 2017

Our text today is often used as the benediction at the end of the service. It is taken from Numbers 6:22-27. I want to show both the meaning to this blessing as well as examples of how God throughout time has enacted this blessing on His people.

Some fun with origins to start the message. “God Bless You” - AD 590 Pope Gregory I commanded unending prayer and to say God bless you after a person sneezed, since sneezing was one of the first signs of the plague “Good Bye” - from 1565, the original phrase was “God be with ye” became contracted ...read more

My Grandad's Letter

Contributed by Fr Mund Cargill Thompson on Jul 12, 2025

This week I found an old letter my Grandad sent to me as a kid - as I decyphered word for word the difficult handwriting it made me reflect on Paul's letter we have listened to this morning - and how if we decypher it word for word - it too can turn out to be so precious to us
