  • The Spiritual Nature Of Work

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Aug 30, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,016 views

    A message for the Labour Day weekend, emphasising that the work we perform and the manner in which we work reflect our understanding of God.

    “Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.” [1] The necessity of going to work Monday morning despite being exhausted from the “rest and relaxation” pursued ...read more

  • God Is Not A God Of Confusion

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Sep 7, 2023
     | 2,506 views

    We must not imagine that the confusion roiling western culture is because of God. Having rejected the Lord, civilization is confused, and without hope of being set right without God's merciful intervention.

    “God is not a God of confusion but of peace.” [1] We live in a world that is increasingly confused—confused about society, confused about the role of government, confused about the sexes, confused about God. And I could undoubtedly go on about the confusion that reigns in our world. Confusion ...read more

  • The High Cost Of Sin Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Dec 14, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,817 views

    Sin has infected the race. It contaminates our lives, ultimately ensuring our death. The Son of God was born to offer His life as a sacrifice, taking the sin of all mankind upon Himself. This is the neglected message of Christmas.

    “To the woman [God] said, ‘I will surely multiply your pain in childbearing; in pain you shall bring forth children. Your desire shall be contrary to your husband, but he shall rule over you.’ “And to Adam he said, ‘Because you have listened to the voice of your wife and have eaten of the ...read more

  • Hope In The Darkness Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Dec 22, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,187 views

    God's curse pronounced against the serpent gave hope to the fallen pair who had rebelled against their Creator. That hope is fulfilled in the salvation offered in Christ the Lord.

    “The LORD God said to the serpent, ‘Because you have done this, cursed are you above all livestock and above all beasts of the field; on your belly you shall go, and dust you shall eat all the days of your life. I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and ...read more

  • Diversity. Equity. Inclusion.?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Dec 29, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,828 views

    While we would never encourage a church to be "woke," there is a biblical expectation that we will practise Scriptural diversity, Equity, and Inclusion as demonstrated by Jesus.

    “[Jesus] came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. And as was his custom, he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and he stood up to read. And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written, ‘The Spirit of the Lord ...read more

  • There Once Was A Country...

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 5, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,105 views

    What we are as a nation is not what we were, and the difference is not something to be celebrated.

    “Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth; for the LORD has spoken: ‘Children have I reared and brought up, but they have rebelled against me. The ox knows its owner, and the donkey its master’s crib, but Israel does not know, my people do not understand.’ “Ah, sinful nation, a people laden ...read more

  • The Christian Response To Social Evil

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 19, 2024
     | 1,992 views

    How shall followers of Christ respond to the growing wickedness of our world?

    “[Jesus] said to [His disciples], ‘Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be great earthquakes, and in various places famines and pestilences. And there will be terrors and great signs from heaven. But before all this they will lay their hands on you and ...read more

  • The Stone That Was Never Thrown

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 26, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,580 views

    How do we, as followers of the Christ, respond to sin when it is exposed to us?

    “Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. Early in the morning he came again to the temple. All the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them. The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery, and placing her in the midst they said to him, ‘Teacher, this woman ...read more

  • Marks Of The True Church: Joy Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Feb 3, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,157 views

    Christ promised joy for those who follow Him. One sure mark of the redeemed is joy.

    “Now I am coming to you, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves.” Suppose you are on holiday. Now imagine it is a Sunday morning, and you want to find a church where you can join fellow Christians in worship of the Risen Saviour. (You do attend ...read more

  • The Arrogance Of The Ignorant

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 12, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,413 views

    Ignorant people attempt to mask their lack of knowledge through arrogance. Jesus pierced the facade of the Sadducees by pointing to what was written in the Word of the Living God.

    “Sadducees came to [Jesus], who say that there is no resurrection. And they asked him a question, saying, ‘Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife, but leaves no child, the man must take the widow and raise up offspring for his brother. There were seven ...read more

  • Enough!

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 17, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,866 views

    If it seems as if the world is falling apart before our eyes, perhaps it is because the world is falling apart before our eyes. How, then, shall Christians live in the midst of a world sliding toward divine judgement?

    “‘Hear this word, you cows of Bashan, who are on the mountain of Samaria, who oppress the poor, who crush the needy, who say to your husbands, ‘Bring, that we may drink!’ The Lord GOD has sworn by his holiness that, behold, the days are coming upon you, when they shall take you away with ...read more

  • It's Too Late!

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 26, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,126 views

    Has western culture gone too far for redemption? Scripture would indicate that our society is flirting with divine judgement.

    “I heard the voice of the Lord saying, ‘Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?’ Then I said, ‘Here I am! Send me.’ And he said, ‘Go, and say to this people: ‘“Keep on hearing, but do not understand; keep on seeing, but do not perceive.’ Make the heart of this people dull, and their ears ...read more

  • And We Hold Our Peace

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Feb 4, 2023
     | 2,639 views

    What responsibility do we bear to our world as followers of Christ?

    “There were four men who were lepers at the entrance to the gate. And they said to one another, ‘Why are we sitting here until we die? If we say, “Let us enter the city,” the famine is in the city, and we shall die there. And if we sit here, we die also. So now come, let us go over to the camp ...read more

  • The Most Miserable Marriage Ever

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Feb 10, 2023
     | 1,762 views

    Marriage should never be a competition. Rather, it was designed to be a means by which husbands and wives complement one another.

    “It is better to live in a corner of the housetop than in a house shared with a quarrelsome wife.” [1] Preachers often deliver sermons about marriage. When speaking of marriage, we preachers usually focus on speaking about what makes for a “happy” marriage. This is to be expected since the ...read more

  • Not Much Can Be Done For An Old Woman Like That!

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Feb 16, 2023
     | 1,948 views

    The blessing one woman conferred upon God's Prophet was returned to her in the form of a rich blessing.

    “One day Elisha went on to Shunem, where a wealthy woman lived, who urged him to eat some food. So whenever he passed that way, he would turn in there to eat food. And she said to her husband, ‘Behold now, I know that this is a holy man of God who is continually passing our way. Let us make a ...read more
