    Last week we looked to Hebrews 12:1-2 as began this series on disciple­ship-becoming more like Jesus.

    We need to understand the drumbeats that compete with Christ’s drumbeat in our lives, so we really hear Him.

    The Drumbeat Montreal/Cornwall October 23, 2004 I love a marching band. To be part of a crowd that is gathered along a street to watch a parade, and to hear, in the distance, the coming band, before I can see it, has always been a peak event in my life.

    A Prayer for the New (Church) Year

    Happy New Year! No, this is not a “Max Webber” greeting. Max (a member at St. Peter), as you know, likes to greet people with “Happy New Year!” no matter what time of year it is just to get a reaction. I, however, am very serious when I say “Happy New Year!” because even though January 1st is a ...read more

    Believers are called to come together as an evangelistic community.

    Our passage does not specifically tell us that the early church devoted themselves to evangelism, although we may conclude that they did, indeed, share the message of the Good News with those who did not know Christ. What we are told is that they devoted themselves to learning ("to the Apostle’s ...read more

    Safe Sin

    Contributed by Dean Morgan on Sep 1, 2004
    based on 16 ratings
     | 5,367 views

    The word "safe sin" is an oxymoron. There really is no such thing as a "safe sin." All sin is wrong and God will judge it all.

    TEXT: Ezekiel 18:4 TITLE: SAFE SIN This phrase “SAFE SIN” is what is called an oxymoron. Oxymorons are expressions or statements, which seem to contradict themselves but nonetheless make a point. Some examples are: “Cruel kindness,” or “clean dirt,” or “tough love.” As a rule these words just ...read more
