  • The Glory Of Christ Is Witnessed Where?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 19, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,754 views

    The glory of Christ is witnessed in what many consider to be the pedestrian. The people of God, serving as the hands of Christ, the eyes of Christ, the mouth of Christ, are the glory of Christ.

    “As for our brothers, they are messengers of the churches, the glory of Christ.” [1] Reading the Word one Sunday morning, I was arrested by something Paul wrote in his Second Letter to the Christians in Corinth. The Apostle has been urging the Corinthian congregation to be generous as they ...read more

  • Seeing The Miraculous In The Mundane

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 27, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 12,353 views

    Jesus' first sign was quiet, not at all spectacular as one might have supposed. Yet, what He did at that time anticipates God at work in the mundane. He performs the miraculous in the mundane facets of life on any given day.

    “On the third day there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. Jesus also was invited to the wedding with his disciples. When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus said to him, ‘They have no wine.’ And Jesus said to her, ‘Woman, what does this have to do with me? ...read more

  • Too Silly For A Funeral; Too Serious For A Party

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Aug 2, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,751 views

    Christians must be aware of becoming hypercritical of divine work and of other believers, ascribing what is done as unworthy of Christ. To explore this situation, the message is a study of Jesus' censure of the generation in which He then lived.

    “Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has arisen no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and the violent take it by force. ...read more

  • Rebellion Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Oct 24, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,310 views

    God condemns rebellion against Himself and against the created order. God calls His people to a life marked by peace.

    “They tested and rebelled against the Most High God and did not keep his testimonies, but turned away and acted treacherously like their fathers; they twisted like a deceitful bow. For they provoked him to anger with their high places; they moved him to jealousy with their idols. When God ...read more

  • Cheating The Labourer Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Oct 31, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,676 views

    James cautions us against cheating those to whom we are indebted. The message explores some of the parameters of this admonition.

    “Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the miseries that are coming upon you. Your riches have rotted, and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver have corroded, and their corrosion will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up treasure in the last ...read more

  • Communion - Open, Closed, Or Cracked? Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 7, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,944 views

    Is the Communion Meal Open to all who profess Christ? Or is it overseen by the congregation hosting the meal and thus restricted to those who are in open fellowship with the assembly? The message is a study of this controversial question.

    “In the following instructions I do not commend you, because when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse. For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you. And I believe it in part, for there must be factions among you in ...read more

  • Make The House You Have The Home You Want

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 14, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,452 views

    The message is a plea for Christians to ensure that their families are provided with a model for Christian living and that all within the family know the message of life in the Son of God.

    “Fear the LORD and serve him in sincerity and in faithfulness. Put away the gods that your fathers served beyond the River and in Egypt and serve the LORD. And if it is evil in your eyes to serve the LORD, choose this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your fathers served in the region ...read more

  • Unwelcomed In Zion

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 21, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,182 views

    A review and application of the ministry of Amos, known to standing with God and against religion.

    “Amaziah said to Amos, ‘O seer, go, flee away to the land of Judah, and eat bread there, and prophesy there, but never again prophesy at Bethel, for it is the king’s sanctuary, and it is a temple of the kingdom.’ “Then Amos answered and said to Amaziah, ‘I was no prophet, nor a prophet’s son, but I ...read more

  • Imperfect Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 26, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,987 views

    If someone is looking for perfection in the Bride of Christ, they are not likely to find it. People focus on an ideal symmetry, but God gives His perfection to imperfect. We will be perfected at the return of our Saviour.

    “He had no form or majesty that we should look at him, and no beauty that we should desire him.” [1] Most of us don’t have to look very far to find things we don’t like about ourselves. Young women are trained by society to starve themselves in order to achieve a look they imagine will bring ...read more

  • Rejected! Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Dec 5, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,433 views

    What does it mean that Jesus was despised and rejected? Are we who call ourselves Christians guilty of despising the Son of God, even rejecting Him? The message is a challenge to examine our lives to ensure that we honour Christ Jesus the Saviour.

    “He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not.” [1] During these festive days of celebrating the birth of the Son of God, Christ is the unrecognized guest at multiplied tables ...read more

  • If I Can Catch Covid-19, Can I Catch Health?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 5, 2020
     | 4,356 views

    Holiness defines the life of that one who walks with the Lord. Holiness is not caught, it is cultivated. Unrighteousness, however, is contagious.

    “On the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, the word of the LORD came by Haggai the prophet, ‘Thus says the LORD of hosts: Ask the priests about the law: “If someone carries holy meat in the fold of his garment and touches with his fold bread or stew or wine or oil ...read more

  • When You Look At God, Who Do You See?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 13, 2020
     | 7,784 views

    Our view of God depends upon our perspective. Sinners see God as vengeful; saints see God as a refuge. Thus, our relationship to God determines how we view Him.

    “The LORD is a jealous and avenging God; the LORD is avenging and wrathful; the LORD takes vengeance on his adversaries and keeps wrath for his enemies. The LORD is slow to anger and great in power, and the LORD will by no means clear the guilty. His way is in whirlwind and storm, and the ...read more

  • Things God Will Not Tell Us

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 19, 2020
     | 5,912 views

    God permits His people to think His thoughts after Him. However, our finite minds are unable to discover all that can be known of God and of His work in the lives of people.

    “The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.” [1] You should always be suspicious of the one who claims superior knowledge. Should he claim to know the deep secrets of God, RUN! ...read more

  • And Then What?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 4, 2020
     | 6,291 views

    Each follower of the Christ has had the experience of praying earnestly, only to be disappointed to discover that God has not answered his/her prayer. When God doesn't answer our earnest request, then what?

    “[Jesus] told [His disciples] a parable to the effect that they ought always to pray and not lose heart. He said, ‘In a certain city there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected man. And there was a widow in that city who kept coming to him and saying, “Give me justice against my ...read more

  • A Sick Church, A Lame Man, And Two Broke Preachers

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 10, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 13,719 views

    The churches of this day confront broken humanity. Whether we attempt to touch those who are broken through our wealth or with the power of Christ depends upon how we see ourselves as servants of the Lord.

    “Peter and John were going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour. And a man lame from birth was being carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple that is called the Beautiful Gate to ask alms of those entering the temple. Seeing Peter and John about to go into the ...read more
