Ten Toes Down

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on May 24, 2025

Sermon # 40 - Mercy Instead Of Judgement Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 10, 2025

Jonah freely accepted God’s mercy but wanted God’s judgement to be given the people of Nineveh. God’s word reminds us that it is not our prerogative to judge others, but rather to be merciful to them, just as God is merciful to us.

We read in Jonah 4:4, “Then the LORD said, "Do you think it is right for you to be angry?" (ERV) The God who created heaven and the earth asked Jonah the prophet, if he thought it was right to be angry with Him, very much like a parent would enquire of their child, who is upset with ...read more

Why Do The Rescued Praise The Lord? Series

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Mar 24, 2025

We must heed the warning of the Lord; it is the same warning Isaiah preaches here! But, why? Because He is returning to judge the Earth - not to scare us, but to prepare us! We must know that He is not a God of fear, but of love because He gives us sufficient warning of what is ahead!

Isaiah, Part 11 Why do the rescued praise the Lord? Isaiah 26:7-21 (Wed: 27:1-13) Introduction - Welcome to Seasons! We are so glad you are here today. - Last week, we saw God’s people praise Him during His judgments because: • His people are kept under His protection in a city created by ...read more

Who Do You Believe? Who Is Driving Your Car? (Session 1) Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Jan 23, 2010

As humans, we function best when we let God be in the driving seat. Maybe our pride does not like it, but we need to be led and directed in life by having a close connection with our Lord. Every one of us at some time of our life has chosen to shove God o

Who is driving your car? Imagine for a moment that you have decided to buy a car. Rather than head off down the London Road to one of the many car dealers, or one of the used car supermarkets at Lakeside, you decide to visit the massive Toomey dealership on Cherry Orchard Way to look at new cars. ...read more

Pleading For God's Mercy Series

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Oct 30, 2022

What is the only basis for your prayer for mercy? When you’ve been emptied of all pride, when you’ve given up trying to earn the LORD’s favour or to fix your life, then your only hope really is this: God has made you his own in Jesus Christ.

In our text Isaiah is praying. Praying is a normal thing for us, but let’s appreciate what the prophet is doing here. In this book of prophecy, there’s all kinds of different styles of writing. In Isaiah there are speeches, parables, lamentations, hymns of praise, predictions of the future, ...read more

Powerful People Worship, Serve And Please God With All Of Their Life Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Feb 24, 2020

We assume there is a great distance between the sacred and the secular. The problem is when we assume that we separate a huge part of our lives from God’s plan for us.

I am often surprised by the contents of some of the emails I receive. This week I had an email from one of the websites I follow that contained a report about oligochaetologists. Does anyone know what an oligochaetologist is? They are scientists who spend their lives studying, identifying, and ...read more

"Off The Chart” Egos Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 12, 2022

Isaiah prophetically recalls the fall of Lucifer while addressing God’s judgment upon Babylon. Lucifer, whose name would be changed to Satan (“the adversary”) is conceptually linked to the arrogance of the King of Babylon.

“Off the Chart” Egos Isaiah 14:3-20 1. Today’s joke is short, but one of my funnier jokes. I think I shared it last in 2005. Here goes. There is an old story about a pastor leaving a church. At his farewell dinner, he tried to encourage one of the pillar members, “Don’t be so sad. The next pastor ...read more

Deliberate Church Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 4, 2021

One law professor said that without lying and bragging, half the pickup lines in bars across the country wouldn’t exist. Churches are deliberately places where bragging is non-existent (about ourselves) and where grace is paramount.

Today is Super Bowl Sunday. CBS is hoping for more than 100 million people watch the game today. The Super Bowl represents the best two teams and the best 106 players competing for bragging rights. There is little humility on the field today. They’ll talk about thankfulness and offer moderate words ...read more

What’s Wrong With Christianity - Part 2 Series

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Apr 17, 2019

This series looks at some of the things that Christianity teaches that many Christians are not in agreement with.

Today is Part 2 of What’s Wrong With Christianity. As I said in Part 1, these messages are not asking what’s wrong with Christianity. Instead, they are describing what’s wrong with Christianity from the viewpoint of the Body of Christ. I’m going to repeat something that I said in the first ...read more
