    Father Dave’s sermon on the relationship between evangelism, social justice and the Gospel. Why was the Gosepl proclaimed as ’Good news the poor’ and what was Jesus’ vision of Social Justice?

    There has been an unfortunate division in the church, that goes back over many years, between those who emphasise the preaching of the Gospel as the primary work of the church, and those who focus on issues of justice, love, and peace. It is regularly assumed that those who focus on the preaching ...read more

    We all find the idea of letting God set the pace, and the direction, and leading us, somewhat difficult because we want to be in control of our lives – we want to set the pace, we want to set the direction, we want to be in charge. A full life is when Go

    Get In Step With The Spirit Gal 5:13-26 Sept 17, 2006 Intro: How many of you have ever danced – and before you answer, I don’t mean like turning your stereo on in your house when you are all alone with your hairbrush in your hand like a microphone; and I don’t mean like the way people dance ...read more

    Paul takes the context of a pagan city and uses their apparent spiritual thirst to tell them about Jesus and his rescue from the judgement to come.

    Here’s Paul, left alone in Athens, the cultural capital of the world. How do you think he’d be feeling? Overwhelmed? Excited? Fascinated? Imagine this is you, not in Athens, but in New York or Paris or Rome or Berlin? How would you be feeling? Like you couldn’t wait to get out and start exploring? ...read more

    Asking The Right Question Series

    Third in a series in the book of Nehemiah. This message explores the "why" (motivation) of vision, versus the "how" (process of fulfilling) the vision. Emphasizes that the "how" is for God to handle, and the "why" will keep us focused on the vision.

    (Prior to this sermon, utilized a Bible "Jeopardy" game with three volunteers from the congregation. Helped bring into focus the idea of asking the right question.) There is a great similarity between success at Jeopardy, and success in seeing the current vision for your life come into focus. To ...read more

    In order to obtain our destiny, it is imperative to birth a closure to the past.

    In my time of devotion, I was reading an article by Joyce Meyer who recorded these words, “The devil wants each of us to concentrate on how far we have fallen, rather than how far we have risen. Satan wants us to focus on our pasts instead of our futures and on how far we have come. He wants us ...read more

    A sermon of hope for persons who are going through persecutions, trials, temptations, testings and tribulations.

     Introduction: Brethrens: to believe, now that one is in Christ, that one will not have problems in life: persecutions, trials, temptation, tribulation, testing, may be understandable-but that is naivety and ignorance. We need to add to our faith knowledge-[2 Peter 1:5-8] To believe ...read more

    How do we mature in Christ as a church? What are some of the main elements involved and how can we put them to use for God’s glory?

    My sermon last week on Thanksgiving received more responses from you than usual. Responses are very helpful to me. Preaching becomes a one way conversation between the minister and the church pretty easily. I prayerfully seek to bring a message from the word of God for the good of our family here ...read more
