    At its best, the church is communal, creedal, charismatic, and caring.

    Doing Church Together Ephesians 4:1-16 August 6, 2006 One of the things that I have learned through the years as I have taken scores of psychological tests for ordination and continuing education is that I am terribly introverted. I am so introverted that I am almost off the scale. Extraverted ...read more

    Be Quiet, Be Still And Behave

    Being quiet and still drives us nuts! But we are told in Scripture to seek God in the stillness -- not in the noise and busy-ness of life.

    If there is one thing that drives us almost insane, If there is one thing that we cannot stand, If there is one thing that makes us uncomfortable it’s...

    What is leadership living.. We know that one of the definitions of leadership is the ability to influence people… Are all of us willing to be leaders? Or do we want to be followers? As Christians we are all leaders, we have not been asked if we want to be

    Cantate Sunday, 1986: Music has power to involve every facet of our beings in worship, it helps build the body of Christ, and it can offer a credible witness to the world.

    It was offertory time in the morning worship, and everyone had settled down quietly – settling down, I suspect, for a little nap to get themselves ready for the big nap they would take during the sermon! And, as was customary, the organist began the slow and solemn strains of an offertory: music to ...read more

     | 6,141 views

    what we eat is irrelevant-- but how our actions affect others in the body is not irrelevant.

    In our scriptures this morning, Paul moves now to a heated Corinthian dispute over an issue of doctrine. Should Christians eat meat from animals that have been offered first to pagan deities, and can they take part in a dinner party the host dedicates to a god or goddess? Doesn’t it seem peculiar, ...read more

    Only 26% of the adult population believes that the Bible, the Word of God, is inspired, is infallible and is inerrant. These three aspects are vitally important in understanding the Bible.

    The Holy Bible was written over a fifteen-hundred year span, by forty different authors from every walk of life. It was written by kings, servants, fishermen, poets, doctors, herdsmen and even a tax collector. It was written on three different continents, Europe, Asia and Africa in sixteen ...read more
