    Some save their lives only to lose it. Others lose their lives to save it. What a paradoxical message. Yet Jesus said it was necessary.

    Mark 8:31-38 The Way to Life Recent report from Vatican to priests: sermons must be short (10 min), pithy and topical. Aren’t you glad I’m not a Catholic because my sermons won’t be short nor topical! Introduction – Heaven An elderly couple passed away and found ...read more

    The most precious thing we can give to Christ Jesus is the one thing we are most reluctant to give. Ourselves!

    Mark 8: 31 – 38 – What Can I Give You? Intro: I remember a number of years ago watching a television program called “What’s My Line?” --- The program was in black and white, so that tells you how long ago it was.

    Jesus calls on us to deny our selves and take up our crosses and follow Him - just as He went to the cross. This sermon delves into that idea of denying the "self" a little more.

    March 12, 2006 Mark 8:31-38 31 He then began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests and teachers of the law, and that he must be killed and after three days rise again. 32 He spoke plainly about this, and Peter took him aside and ...read more

    The storms and trials of life are part of the process of God building us into his kingdom.

    Imagine a situation where a homeless man is begging on the streets of London. A well-dressed man in a stretch limo pulls up next to him and offers him a job as vice-president of his company. You might think that sounds like a fairy tale; but that is exactly what God has done for us. We don’t ...read more

    We all know pain is going to be a part of life. The main question is "why". If I understand God’s purpose for pain I can deal with it.

    How Do I Take Up My Cross?

    based on 14 ratings
     | 12,220 views

    This sermon looks at both what it means, and also what it does not mean, for us to take up our cross for Jesus.

    Jesus said to his disciples and to the crowd following him, “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me” (8:34). It’s hard for us to hear those words in the same way that those following Jesus heard it. The context is that Peter has just recognised that ...read more

    A look at Jesus as He dealt with His Disciples trying to get them to see Him for who He is and understand His purpose. As Pastors, we do the same thing each week, and get the same response from many...they don't get it and it can be frustrating.....

    “A Frustrated Jesus” Mark 8 Focal Passages Mark 8: 34-38, 2 Corinthians 5:11-20, Acts 11:19-25 As we have read, it was at Antioch that followers of Christ were first called Christians.

    In this Scripture Jesus confirms that He IS the Christ, the He must die and that He will rise again. Also in this Scripture we see that we must believe Jesus is the Christ, that we must die and be raised; raised to eternal life or eternal death.

    Mark 8:27-38 (Please open your Bibles so you can read along) Today we will start following Jesus down the road to the cross and then finally to the resurrection. This, of course, is not something we speak about only at this time of year. This great act of mercy and salvation is the pivotal event ...read more
