    The Magi - gentile are invited to be a part of the family of God.

    Dark Christmas Matthew 2:1-12 Well, like Christmas, this “perspective series” is coming to an end.

    This message was written as part of a mission emphasis series. It fits well into a purpose of the church series also. It depicts that the Church is to be on mission for and with Jesus because of who He is and because of what He does.

    Matthew 28:16-20 THE GREAT COMMISSION Revelation 5:9-14 Circumstances have provided lengthy opportunities to deepen my thinking about death. If I knew my time to go on to Heaven was near through illness or indication of age, what statement would I leave with those I loved most? What challenge ...read more

    The hard commands of Jesus are best understood as being directed to the church, which should be a Community of Grace. This sermon addresses Jesus’ teaching on lust, sin and adultery.

    The Examined Life in the Community of Grace Our key scripture today suggested to me the sermon title, The Examined Life”. You may have heard of this saying by Socrates, an ancient philosopher: “The unexamined life is not worth living." It struck me that, in some very strong language, what ...read more

    In an age when so many things and forces threaten to control our lives, we need the reassurance that Jesus' power is available to us.

    We all need a throne room, where we can maintain a measure of control and an upper room, where we can nourish our privacy. We will also have a den, a place of escape or of anxiety. The key to managing them all is the open windows of prayer.

    The scandal of Christ is embodied in Revelation 5. He is God, Equal to Him in every way and worshiped by all.

    I remember a friend of mine suggesting that a waiting till after your death to give people you love something you want them to have is not the best way. If you wait till they get it from your will, in many cases, they must pay an inheritance tax on it. Besides, you don't get to express your esteem ...read more

    We need to move from the mountaintop into the valley, from transformation to sacrifice, if we are going to be effective in the world.

    I don’t know about you but very often the place when I feel nearer to God is on top of a mountain. Mountain top experiences are great, and when I’m standing there, on top of a mountain enjoying the awesome majesty of God’s creation, that’s fantastic. And those who have been silly enough to follow ...read more
