A Garland Of Righteousness

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 12, 2013

I have finished the course, declares Paul to Timothy. You run your course as I have run mine. This applies not only to Timothy, but to every one of us.

A GARLAND OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. 2 Timothy 4:6-8; 2 Timothy 4:16-18. Against a background of false teachers, and hypocritical hearers who will not endure sound teaching, Paul exhorted Timothy to urgently preach the word (2 Timothy 4:2). The young minister was to do this both when it seemed ...read more

Entering Rest And Finding Grace

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 27, 2019

Our rest based in the finished work of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Let us hold fast our profession and come boldly to the throne of grace.

ENTERING REST AND FINDING GRACE. Hebrews 4:1-16. “Let us therefore fear” links this passage with the previous chapter. It has to do with the promise of “entering into His rest”, “lest any of you should seem to come short of it” (Hebrews 4:1). The promise of entering the promised land was ...read more

What Are You Going To Do? (New Year’s Sermon)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 22, 2022

Some believe that the Old Testament Book of Psalms is the most helpful book in the Bible.

Why? Because the Psalms are loaded with information to help us live the Christian life. One of the things we all need help with is how to deal with the differences we have with each other. We all have many differences. Illus: Mayor Giuliani, of New York city, was honored for his leadership ...read more

A Sermon for a Church who have just recieved a new priest (not me) - that the secret of growth won't be him - it will be them.

Who here would like St Jo’s to grow? [presume lots of hands go up] So [go round asking people] what would it be like if St Jo’s grew significantly? [take a reasonable number of answers to unpack the question – before returning to the sanctuary] Jesus stands in the middle of the crowd and says ...read more

Proper Priorities: The Secret To Staying On Mission During A Pandemic

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on May 5, 2022

Our lives are all full of things we need to accomplish, spiritual, social, and vocational demands that fight for our attention. All needs are not created equal, and we shouldn’t give them the same weight in our lives. That’s where a practice of healthy priorities comes in.

Studies In Genesis: Chapters 12 & 13 Series

Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 14, 2011

This is a study of the book of Genesis. Genesis and Revelation are two of the most disputed books in the Bible. The premise of this study is the foundation of creation.

Note: When doing a study on a book in the Bible you use a lot of resources. The major influence for me on this study of Genesis is The Genesis Record by Henry Morris. With chapters 12 - 50 we come to a whole different part of the book of Genesis. Everything has begun to change. In Genesis 1-11 ...read more
