    Genesis 1:1. It is said that if you can get through the first verse of the Bible, you can read and believe the rest. Do you believe in God? If so, why? How do I know God exists?

    One of the simplest stories in the Bible seems to be one of the hardest stories for some to believe. One of the famous men that doubted the Biblical creation story was a man named Charles Darwin, who died in April of 1882. Through Darwin’s studies he determined that man was not created by God, as ...read more

    We must seek to meet those who have no connection to religious tradition but sincerely seek truth, goodness and beauty. Ultimately, Jesus Christ is the what and the whom they seek.

    Thursday of 5th Week of Easter 2017 Joy of the Gospel The words of today’s Gospel could be a reflection on the Beatitude, “Blessed are the poor in spirit.” Ultimately our food, our clothing, our housing and our health care are not ends in themselves, but rather means to the end of ...read more

    Some have forgotten their calling...they've been called in every direction, but have forgotten the true calling they received the day that the Holy Spirit moved them to accept Jesus as their personal Lord and Saviour...the day they became born again!

    Losing my Religion? "Scandalous" Illus. There is a story that tells about a man who was looking for work without any luck for many weeks. So he decided to take a break and visit the zoo. While he was at the zoo, he asked the zookeeper if they had any openings. The zookeeper motioned the man over ...read more

    We go about trying to live religious lives, but do we miss connecting with God in the process? Christianity is about relationship, not religion. And Jesus makes such a relationship possible.

    Luke 13:10-17 When Religion Blocks Relationship It was a day I will never forget. Our village had gathered at the local Synagogue to hear the word and receive teaching, to pray together, and to worship Yahweh, the one true God. On this day there was an unusual excitement in the crowd because we ...read more

    God demands true faith, true repentance, true worship, not the outward show of 'religiosity'

    2 Timothy 3: 1-9 Outward religion Christmas has long gone and 2014 is no longer the 'New' year. Paul wrote his 2nd 'Pastoral' Letter to Timothy around AD66/67.

    Before you choose a religion, you need to know about the person who is centred around (icon) in that religion. Ask yourself, what good qualities you can follow in that leader. Why did he come? How did he live? What did he teach? Where did he come? Where did he go?

    Look for Ten good qualities in that leader. Look for ten good qualities of the followers. Look for ten good qualities of that religion or faith. Ask yourself again, where would you end up if you follow that person and his teachings in your life. You are trusting someone completely and following ...read more

     | 905 views

    This sermon introduction emphasizes the importance of private acts of giving, praying, and fasting as taught by Jesus, highlighting the need for a self-giving love that seeks God's approval rather than that of others.

    Hello church and welcome. I am glad we are observing Ash Wednesday together. Today is the first day of Lent, a 40-day period of reflection, prayer, confession, and letting go.

    Jesus saves us from sin and shallow religion. He teaches us to practice our faith in private, not for public approval, but to build a solid core of self-giving love.

    Today we're going to talk about how Jesus saves us from sin and shallow religion. You know, the kind of religion that's all about showing off and not about what's really going on inside of us. Let's start with a little object lesson. I want you all to imagine a cup. Now, this cup looks super shiny ...read more

    Jesus Disrupts Dead Religion Youth Sermon

     | 925 views

    Jesus disrupts the old system of death and sacrifice, bringing in a new system of love and mercy. He challenges corruption and exploitation, and disrupts our lives to remove anything that hinders us from living abundantly in His love.

    Imagine you're at your favorite concert, but instead of enjoying the music, people are selling stuff and ripping you off. That's what Jesus walked into at the temple. People were supposed to be worshipping God, but instead, they were making a quick buck. Jesus was not cool with that. He flipped ...read more

    When Religion Collides With Revelation

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 8, 2025
     | 209 views

    Cain and Abel reveal two spiritual systems: self-made religion or grace-filled revelation. God accepts only the worship shaped by surrender to His revealed way.

    Some of the most defining moments in Scripture arrive without fanfare. No thunder. No angels. No miracles that split seas or shake mountains. Just a simple scene, described with almost startling brevity, that quietly reveals the inner architecture of the human heart. The story of Cain and Abel in ...read more

    Jesus helps us to see that His followers should be marked by humility, faith, and devotion.

    What is a good Christian like? Is it someone who doesn’t as the saying goes “drink or smoke or cuss or chew or date/marry people who do”? Is it someone who faithfully attends church?
