     | 8,869 views

    Wisdom! The Lord has it and He wants you to get it from Him! We need to pursue the Lord and His wisdom with a single minded focus in order to glorify God by being "a servant of God and the Lord Jesus Christ".

    Wisdom! Is there anyone here who is wise and has all of the wisdom they will ever need? And, you all have probably heard the old quote attributed to Yogi Berra about the fork in the road, “When you come to a fork in the road, take it!” Life is filled with forks in the road, choices, ...read more

    Proper 18 (a) By nature we focus on ourselves, trying to be the greatest, to be Number One. But that leads to separation and loneliness. Christ has redeemed us, that we may be united with the Father and with each other. Therefore we live in love.

    J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. “One is the loveliest number” Our gospel reading today is in three parts. It opens with the disciples asking Jesus, yet again, who will be ...read more

    Our celebrations of Christmas should be an extension of our celebration of Christ every other day of the year. If we give special attention to his birth and use the focus of the world on this adopted holiday to show and share the love of Christ and the t

    Give Back Christmas This message may strike some as controversial and others as stating the obvious. I have to confess that for me, Christmas, as we know it today, has largely become something to survive, not celebrate. And before you judge me too severely, I would suggest I may be in good ...read more

    How did you do this week? Were you a gatherer or a scatterer? Did your life focus on loving the unlovable, touching the untouchable, and caring for the throw-aways; or was your life focused on yourself and your wants, your desires?

    Jesus And The Forbidding Pharisees – Part 4 Matthew 12:22-45 Watch Your Mouth Matthew 12:33-37 How did you do this week? Were you a gatherer or a scatterer?

    While God is the centre and the focus of the Kingdom of God, it remains a Kingdom of people. And not just regular, ordinary people, and not all people everywhere, but rather a very privileged, very select, very precious, very holy, very royal people.

    A Kingdom of People 1 Pet 2:4-5, 9-12 Intro: While God is the centre and the focus of the Kingdom of God, it remains a Kingdom of people.

    This is the 5th of our series on Action in Acts. We look at the charges against Peter, how he did not seek to justify himself but share what God was doing, and how we are called to focus on what is truly important.

    Action – Follow the right voice (5:17-42) Have you noticed how there seems to be people making stands for all sorts of things in life? There are thousands of causes, and there are people fighting for all sorts of things. Even within the “church” community, there are people with ...read more

    Is your faith totally inward focused or does it have a gospel shaped outward focus as well? Are you one of Jesus disciples so you can serve him or just yourself? Are you not just a disciple but an apostle as well?

    Imagine Jesus appeared in Melbourne today and was looking to form a band of disciples. What sorts of people do you think he might look for? People with influence? Media savvy types? University trained professionals? People who are good with words, good at presenting the right image? It’s ...read more

    We see from Scripture that an attitude of thanksgiving is expected of God’s children. We can attain this by keeping our pride, complacency, and critical attitudes in check and our focus on all blessings we have from God.

    Always Thankful For All Things 11/23/08 PM Text: Ephesians 5:20 Introduction This Thursday is Thanksgiving Day. One day in which we set aside our busy schedules to be thankful. Now, there is nothing wrong with that but the word of God tells us that thankfulness should be our attitude all the time, ...read more

     | 3,600 views

    There is a way to do wonderful things for God and fade into the background. Our human nature wants to get the credit and be the focus. Our godly nature tells us otherwise. Learn how to be an active part of God’s plan by disappearing.

    Where have we been so far? Chapter 5: rely and focus on the Lord, not on ourselves. Make, keep, and fix broken relationships as God fixed the broken relationship with us. Now in Chapter 6 we move to being an active part in focusing others on God—the source of life. What’s the use of having ...read more
