Contributed by Fr Mund Cargill Thompson on May 2, 2020

Barney Stinson searches for his dad on the Price is Right. Shrek the sheep searches for a hair cut. And the Good Shepherd Searches for us. A sermon on John 10:1-10 for Easter 4 ("Good Shepherd Sunday")

It’s been - what? - a month of lockdown, and some of us, our hair is starting to get rather long.

But I know some of you missed that chance and are now ...read more

I Want To Read My Bible. Where Do I Start?

Contributed by Jenny Franklin on Nov 14, 2020

Many "mature" Christians have never read their Bible except for passages for Sunday School or other lessons. I was one of them. When I opened my Bible and began reading the Bible for myself, that is when God started revealing himself to me.

JOHN Most Bible scholars would recommend the Gospel of John as the first book a new Christian should read. -- John records the seven “I am” statements of Jesus. 1. I am the bread of life. John 6:35,48,51 2. I am the light of the world. John 8:12 3. I am the door of the sheep. John 10:7,9 4. ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Madana Kumar, Phd on Nov 30, 2020

Psalm 23 is a great Psalm to read and be comforted. There are times when we get excited about Psalm 23, and say Amen. But there are other times when we read Psalm 23 and heave a sigh, thinking "I don't feel like the sheep in Psalm 23 right now. What prevents us from feeling Psalm 23?

How To Find The Good Shepherd Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Jun 8, 2021

The world is a very dangerous place spiritually, full of wolves that come to us in sheep's clothing, evil shepherds masquerading as good shepherds. How do we find the Good Shepherd? How do we determine the difference between good shepherds and bad? Jesus provides insight in John 10.

If you’re only casually familiar with the Bible, you might be surprised to find out that one of the major themes of the New Testament is false teachers. Under this general category fall false shepherds, false prophets and false apostles. You see, the Bible claims to be the truth about God and ...read more

Persecuted: Why? Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on May 1, 2023

The Beatitudes are a beautiful picture of the character of Christ and of consecrated Christians. Why would such a lifestyle depicted in the first seven beatitudes provoke persecution rather than admiration and esteem?

Intro In our study of the Beatitudes, we come to the eighth beatitude. It is recorded in Matthew 5:10: “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”i The reward declared in this final beatitude is the same as declared in the first ...read more
