    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Sep 16, 2006
    based on 8 ratings
     | 3,678 views

    A short homily given at a mid week communion service, encouraging us to fix our eyes on Jesus and not upon leaders, forms of worship or types of evangelism. It’s all about Jesus!

    1 Corinthians 3: 1-9 St. Paul had some words of rebuke for the Christians at Corinth; and when I hear St. Paul rebuking a church I always have to ask myself some questions. The questions are: How does this apply to me? How does this apply to my local church? How does this apply to the national ...read more

    Jesus taught the disciples but they did not always understand! This short homily encourages listeners to ask questions; it also reminds us that God knows about everything we do; and that is both comforting and challenging.

    Are you sitting comfortably? Then I’ll begin! Of course, it is always likely that God’s word will make us uncomfortable! When we turn to God’s word, seeking the voice of God, there is always plenty to hear; and this short Bible event is packed full of God’s wisdom, and God’s call to us. Jesus ...read more

    based on 65 ratings

    Some scholars have said that Hezekiah started out good and then went bad. I think that’s a short sighted description of a man who was not that much different than we are.

    OPEN: A man spoke of one of the most challenging courses he’d had at his college as being a business law class in which the professor gave difficult true/false tests.

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Oct 20, 2010
     | 3,647 views

    God will answer our prayers. Jesus will return - but both often seem to be taking such a long time! This short talk encourages us not to give up on prayer, nor to give up on the return of Jesus.
