    Just like Jesus, we need to establish a divine rhythm in our lives that includes rest, prayer, and reconnection with God. This connection empowers us to fulfill our purpose and calling.

    Hey guys, ever watched a surfer ride the waves? It's pretty cool, right? They seem to have this rhythm with the ocean, knowing when to stand up, when to ride, and when to bail. It's like they're connected to the ocean. Well, Jesus had a similar connection, but His was with God. And guess what? We ...read more

    My friend Nigel (who is not a Christian) once said that that when Christians speak about God, he can feel like a primitive tribesman who suddenly encounters New York City - he just can’t get his head around it.

There he stays for forty days in that haze, time apart in the presence of God receiving from God the ten commandments and other laws and teachings for ...read more

    Welcome to week two of our study of St Paul’s letter to the Colossian Church, probably written between 52 and 56 AD – at least that’s when Paul’s letter was written – not my sermon!

Not a distant title, not a cold address, but a name full of nearness and tenderness. The kind of name a child whispers when the night is long and ...read more

    Job 3:26, "I have no peace, no quietness; I have no rest, but only turmoil.” Do you share Job's sentiment? To say this past year has been stressful is an understatement. As we begin our new year, maybe it's time to incorporate some silent solitude into our daily regimen.
