     | 1,408 views

    Because Jesus rose from the dead – so will we … but before we go, we are changed into something he wants us to be. He wants us to look forward to dead, and our future life with him.

    This sermon was delivered to St Oswald’s in Maybole, Ayrshire, Scotland on the 9th April 2023 (a Scottish Episcopal Church in the Dioceses of Glasgow and Dumfries). “Please join me in my prayer.” Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of our hearts, be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, ...read more

    What Makes Motherhood Great?

    Contributed by Edward Frey on May 11, 2002
    based on 244 ratings
     | 17,352 views

    A mother’s opportunity to share her faith in Christ makes motherhood great.

    How do we measure greatness? Greatness is usually measured in terms of the end result. For example, a movie is considered a “blockbuster” by the amount of ticket sales it generates; the end result. An historical figure is considered great often by the sheer amount of information written about ...read more

So preacher approached the boy after he had apparently finished his prayer and said, "Son, I was very pleased to ...read more

    We live in a world where it is hard to find people who care. We live in a world where people are willing give money and even time to help people we don’t know. But at the same time, we often ignore people we do know who are in a spiritual pits.

    I spent this week with Joseph on his journey and in the pit. I wanted to feel and think what Joseph felt and thought. Listen to Joseph’s thinking, as he approached his brothers. It has been a long walk from Hebron to Shechem to Dothan. My father wanted me to visit my brothers to check up on ...read more

    The peace that Isaiah speaks of, the peace Jesus brings us, comes only when both the wolf and the lamb come at his call and obey his commands.

    Everybody wants peace. Well, almost everyone. We all know people who are never happier then when they’re in the middle of a crisis, and of course there are terrorists and other people who try to get what they want by violence.

    The Greatest Power Is Often Simple Patience Series

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Oct 15, 2008
    based on 6 ratings
     | 6,536 views

    Life outside of Christ, Paul says. It’s angry life. Its confrontational politics and caustic talk shows. It’s accusatory e-mails that appear to have been sent from a flamethrower. As God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with patience.

    Opening illustration: This past week I read about a first-grade teacher who was having a difficult day. It had rained that entire day and the children couldn’t go out for recess, so they got more and more restless and hyperactive as the day wore on. The teacher couldn’t wait for the bell to ring ...read more
