    SEEKING GOD The Bible and preachers often compel the people of God to ’seek the Lord’, Isaiah tells us to "seek the Lord while He may be found", King David says "we should seek the Lord always" (see Isa 55:6, lChor 16:11).

    John shows us the model of preparing the way for the coming Savior, but preaching the good news in the wilderness--good news of love, forgiveness, new life and a relationship with God.

    Mark 1:1-8 “A Model to Follow” INTRODUCTION The greeting, “Merry Christmas” rings a little hollow this year.

  • Is Legalism A Bad Word?

    Contributed by Patrick Nix on Jul 9, 2010
     | 2,496 views

    This message deals with the fact that God’s law (from Moses to Christ) is good and that its continued presence in church and culture is right, not wrong.

    Too many people today, even Christians, feel like the days of grace and spiritual liberty should erase the law of God.

    ARE WE USURPING GOD? James 4:11-17 Brothers, do not slander one another. Anyone who speaks against his brother or judges him speaks against the law and judges it. When you judge the law, you are not keeping it, but sitting in judgment on it. 12 There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is ...read more

    Prayer is one of the greatest contributions we can make to advance the Kingdom of Christ. Feel the power of prayers and be blest.

    "Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee…" (Jeremiah 1:5) – since the Almighty being our creator knew us before we were even formed, why do we have to pray to Him submitting lists after lists of our needs & necessities? If God knows what we need, why do we have to bring our ...read more

     | 3,921 views

    We learn from bitter experience how wrong it is to ignore God's will and do things our own way. If this leads to pain, even the pain can be a way to focus us on the right way.

    Thursday of 15th Week in Course Lumen Fidei Let’s be frank about today’s reading from Isaiah, because he is speaking about a Hebrew people who did not do God’s will. They chased after what he calls “other lords”–the Baals and Astartes. They engaged in all ...read more

  • Realities Trump Ideas Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 13, 2016
     | 3,566 views

    Ideas disconnected from realities give rise to ineffectual forms of idealism and nominalism, capable at most of classifying and defining, but certainly not calling to action. What calls us to action are realities illuminated by reason.

    Thursday of First Week in Lent 2016 Joy of the Gospel St. Luke’s Gospel tells the same story about Jesus’s teaching on prayer, but instead of saying the Father will give us “good things,” Luke says He will give us the Holy Spirit. Ultimately, that is the gift that keeps on ...read more

     | 2,442 views

    St Stephen's sermon was very aggressive, and would not really be expected to work, but his core truth is real.

    St. Stephen December 26 2013 Lumen Fidei I grew up in the fifties and sixties, and being a Catholic was “okay” with the culture back then. So this quote from Jesus about being hated by all seemed to be referring to anti-Catholic bigotry from the early 1900s. After all, wasn’t ...read more
