    Notice that one of the responsibilities of John the Baptist was to “turn the hearts of the fathers to the children.” If ever there was a time that this needed to happen it is now.

    A few Sunday’s ago I passed out a piece of paper on in that asked 2 questions: (1) What is a Father or Dad?; (2) What does your Father or Dad mean to you? Seven people responded & I am going to let their responses help me preach my sermon today as we honor our fathers. Let me begin by reading ...read more

    David’s response when confronted with his terrible sin was to run to the very one he had offended.

    Passage: Psalm 51 Intro: It’s hard to imagine a believer who had messed up worse than David. 1) life filled w/ God’s grace, David blew it. 2) lusted after and committed adultery with a good friend’s wife, Bathsheba, who got pregnant. 3) lured Uriah home to explain pregnancy, but Uriah ...read more

    The Da Vinci Code is one of the hotest novels on the market today, what should the church’s response be?

    (I began this message with a clip from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade where Indy discovers the Grail) Let’s start by saying that the Da Vinci code focuses on a subject that many of us know little about and that is the Holy Grail, as a matter of fact the sum total of most of our knowledge ...read more

    The Temple Incident

     | 4,787 views

    Jesus actions in the temple demonstrate that we have a responsibility to reach out and not just to make things comfortable for ourselves.

    The story we read today is an interesting one. It’s one that doesn’t really fit with the picture of Jesus that we usually think about. How does a loving Jesus, who goes around teaching good morals, fit with this violent figure who disrupts a market place, stops temple worship and causes chaos. If ...read more

    THE MAGNET I was doing a repair job out of doors when unfortunately I dropped a tin of small nails on the gravel driveway. It was important that none be left mixed up in the gravel as I didn’t want the car to get a puncture! But it was difficult to find them among the loose gravel. Then I ...read more

    This is one of the greatest promises in the scriptures called the Abrahamic Covenant. God always expects a response when he speaks.

    God’s Call Genesis 12:1-3 This is one of the greatest promises in the scriptures called the Abrahamic Covenant. We still see the effects of that promise today. Abram means exalted father.
