    Look at what the Lord says about the 2nd church of Revelation.

    INTRO: Today maybe you’ve come and you just don’t feel right. Maybe you’ve been feeling some pain and heartache. You’re possibly in a situation that’s not bringing you a lot of happiness. Perhaps the last year you’ve lost a loved one. Job is not what you thought it would be. You feel persecuted on ...read more

    We got through trials sometimes. Jesus said that we will have troubles in this life but that we should take heart because he has overcome the world. This was preached at a military chapel but it could easily be preached in a civilian church.

    -We’re in a war! -I know that the people in the military get that – they’ve deployed to fight in it -Their families know it – because they’ve missed their loved ones while they’ve been fighting -If you are a retiree you know it – because you’ve been there before -But I don’t think the American ...read more

    The disciples look for the body of Jesus, but He is not there! He has already gone on ahead of them somewhere, just as He continues to keep moving beyond our reach!...

    When I went to seminary - to Moore College in Newtown - there was a resident chapel there known as the Cash Chapel (named after the guy who donated it, not after how he paid for it). Now when people set up a church building or a chapel, they tend to design it with the communion table at the centre, ...read more

    Luke 19:1-10 Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through. A man was there by the name of Zacchaeus; he was a chief tax collector and was wealthy.

    I don’t think any of us are really ready to give up the traditions of this holiday season. So why not think about what we love about this time of the year? (Based on an article by Rev. Thomas Shepherd) ________________________________________

    How do you like this time of the year? Shopping center parking lots clogged with car headlights like a starry night sky in the country. Mindless, but welcoming music drifting over hordes of harried, hopeful, hesitantly happy holiday hunters. Shop ’til you’re top-heavy, arms full of packages, ...read more
