     | 5,441 views

    Pride is the enemy of every human being ever born; Jesus taught the topic without mentioning the word.

    Gospel Humility Luke 17:1-6 As we saw in Acts, the first generation of preachers, the apostles, were given power over disease, and power over death, and they were sent out with that power to authenticate the message of the gospel of the Kingdom that they brought.

    Building Blocks In God's Holy House

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Jan 23, 2022
     | 2,461 views

    We are “living stones,” called to be linked with one another in Christ, tightly integrated like stones in a wall. This requires us to strengthen our connections with each other, in fellowship, mutual support, and prayer.

    God has given us a real blessing in this church building. In many ways, it’s a hub for congregational life. It serves as a centre of our worship, our learning and study, and it’s a place for our communion together. It’s a good gift of God to us. Yet how does the Bible speak about our places of ...read more

    Jesus was the stone rejected by Sadducee and Pharisee alike, but His presence is the foundation stone for the Church He left behind to continue His mission.

    Saturday of Easter Week It’s remarkable that the same Sanhedrin council who, six weeks earlier, had been able to condemn Jesus to death for blasphemy, and then proceed to bribe or blackmail the Roman procurator to execute Him seems powerless in our first reading.

     | 5,349 views

    We need to consider how our waning faith can become a hindrance to others. Jesus provides a warning about hindering other believers who have the faith of a child. It is also a warning about hindering children from coming to Christ.

    Back when I was in college, one of my favorite songs was “Faith Like a Child” by Jars of Clay. Listen as I share some of the lyrics to this song: “Dear God, surround me as I speak; the bridges that I walk across are weak. Frustrations fill the void that I can’t solely bear . . .
