  • The Spiritual Nature Of Work

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Aug 30, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,008 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
     | 2,469 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

  • "god Told Me!" Really?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 24, 2022
     | 2,041 views

    God's Word, the Bible, is a perfect revelation of the mind and the will of God. We sin against Him when we attempt to usurp His place by trying to put words in His mouth.

    “You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain.” If you have been a follower of Christ for more than a few months, you have almost assuredly heard some dear soul assert, “God told me…” This assertion was possibly ...read more

  • I Have A Vision!

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 1, 2022
     | 2,515 views

    The assemblies of the Lord must recognise the marks of the false prophet and the false teacher. They must guard themselves against succumbing to the alluring message that leads to destruction of the congregation.

    The word of the LORD came to me: ‘Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel, who are prophesying, and say to those who prophesy from their own hearts: “Hear the word of the LORD!” Thus says the Lord GOD, Woe to the foolish prophets who follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing! ...read more

  • Some Things Need To Die!

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 9, 2022
     | 4,123 views

    The Follower of Christ must take responsibility for his/her life, putting to death those characteristics identified with the flesh that Christ may be seen shining through the Christian's life.

    “If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is your life ...read more

  • Some Things Need To Be Cultivated!

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 14, 2022
     | 3,097 views

    To honour Christ, we are responsible to cultivate those graces that reveal His presence in us.

    “Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. And above all these put on ...read more

  • The Impact Of One Friend

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 8, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,733 views

    We Christians are commanded to love one another. But what does such love look like? If we love one another, what practical impact will that love have on us as a congregation?

    “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that someone lays down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you. No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; ...read more

  • Let Me Die The Death Of The Upright!

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 17, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,943 views

    Surprised by the intervention of God, Balaam pronounces one of the great aspirations of all who know and worship the Lord God.

    “Who can count the dust of Jacob. or number the fourth part of Israel? Let me die the death of the upright, and let my end be like his!” [1] King Frederick the Great of Prussia is reported to have once asked his physician to provide proof for the existence of God. The physician is said to have ...read more

  • A Preacher For This Generation

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 25, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,223 views

    A call for us who preach to determine that we are delivering the message our God has given and not speaking to make people feel good about themselves.

    “‘Do not preach’—thus they preach— ‘one should not preach of such things; disgrace will not overtake us.’ Should this be said, O house of Jacob? Has the LORD grown impatient? Are these his deeds? Do not my words do good to him who walks uprightly? But lately my people have risen up as an ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,968 views

    An unusual Advent series focusing on how we arrived t our present condition so we will know why it was necessary for Messiah to be born in order to give His life.

    “God said, ‘Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.’ So, God created man in his own image, in the ...read more

  • Help! There's A Snake In My Garden! Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Dec 5, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,677 views

    We need a Redeemer because we are fallen people. We inherited our fallen nature because of the fall of our first parents. Eve was seduced by Satan, and Adam chose to rebel against God. Thus, the creation was plunged into ruin.

    “Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the LORD God had made. “He said to the woman, ‘Did God actually say, “You shall not eat of any tree in the garden?”’ And the woman said to the serpent, ‘We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden, but God said, “You ...read more

  • The High Cost Of Sin Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Dec 14, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,795 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

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,171 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
     | 3,816 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
     | 2,103 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
