Life-Changing Encounters With Jesus: The Lame Man At The Pool Series

Contributed by Jonathan Mcleod on Mar 17, 2008

Don’t let religious traditions become more important that people.

The religious leaders did not ask, “Who healed you?” but rather, “Who told you to do this on the Sabbath?” They were more concerned about a broken rule than a miraculous healing. According to the Pharisees, carrying a mat on the Sabbath was work and was therefore unlawful. It did not break an ...read more

Contributed by Andrew Moffatt on Mar 1, 2014

Jesus calms the storm on the Lake. This is no ordinary thing, it is extraordinary. How will the disciples react and why did they react the way they did during the storm? From now on how will we react?

- Debate In The Temple Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 23, 2015

The Pharisees try to trap Jesus by questioning his authority, by asking about taxes paid to Caesar, the resurrection and which Law is greatest. Jesus rebuts all their attacks. But the battle isn't over. Satan continues his attacks on us today.

Sermon by Rev George Hemmings During my time at Ridley, one of the highlights was the debates. Sometimes there’d be big debates in class, as we tried to wrap our heads around big theological ideas. But the really great debates were the ones the student body organized. Two small teams of ...read more

Jesus Heals An Evil Spirit In The Church

Contributed by Bruce Lee on Oct 5, 2014

Jesus Heals an Evil Spirit in the Church “In the synagogue there was a man possessed by a demon, an impure spirit.” Luke 4:31-37 Intro: The city of Capernaum was on the northwest shore of the Sea of Galilee. It was a fishing village and along the major route about 200 miles from ...read more

Pride And Promiscuity

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 12, 2016

Jesus contrasts a prideful Pharisee and a formerly promiscuous sinner desperate for grace. One is changed forever and one is unchanged. The difference: pride vs. humility. We all are in need of a Savior. Sadly, some don't realize it until it is too late.

Luke 7:36-50 Pride and Promiscuity The sermon title for today’s story is in honor of my wife, who first introduced me to Jane Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice,” a classic tale of two strong-willed and misunderstood personalities coming together in romantic love. But ...read more

The Light Of Hope

Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 19, 2016

We all need hope. Here I’m touching on how Hope is like a light. It should give us optimism, transform our lives, and reminds us of our inheritance.

THE LIGHT OF HOPE INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. You always need to be skeptical when you are offered a “free ride.” If it looks too good to be true, it probably IS too good to be true. Example: 2. In Zimbabwe, a bus driver was transporting 20 mental patients from one mental hospital to ...read more
