     | 11,387 views

    Do you believe in Jesus or not? Will you come to him or will you reject him? If you’re one who’s still deciding, then ask God to open your eyes so you can see the truth about Jesus and come to believe in him

    You may have noticed that there’s been a significant revival of Atheism over the past few years. More and more people have begun to question the validity of the claims of religions, particularly Christianity, of a supernatural power being at work in the world. It’s like carbon in the ...read more

    It is a prominent feature in our lives and our memories. A place of safety. A place of provision. It's "The Porch!"

    The Porch Pt. 2 - Reporching for Duty Charles Dickens and William Shakespeare have nodded their heads to the genius of the story. All of Rembrandt's skill couldn't seem to capture the depth of the account. I view the story not thru the lens of Rembrandt but more through a Norman Rockwell ...read more

     | 2,061 views

    Matthew 7:24-29 is a Biblical parable that points to the necessity for obedience. In that parable, Jesus illustrates His point through three things in that passage of scripture which are the construction site, the storm's test and the results of the test.

    THE SURE FOUNDATION Text: Matthew 7:24-29 "It is told that [Horatio] Nelson [1758-1805] was famous for his courtesy to defeated enemies. [He was one of England's most famous Naval heroes.] On one occasion a defeated captain came on to Nelson's quarter-deck as a prisoner. ...read more

    Have you ever wondered, if you take away the music and the money power from today’s churches what will remain? How many people will still be attending the assemblies? God’s work does not suffer because of the lack of money as some money loving preachers say.

    Our Lord said, “No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.” (Matthew 6:24). When God and mammon become rivals, one or other will inevitably be rejected. In spiritual ...read more

    St. Augustine noted that every person has a God shaped hole in his or her soul. People attempt to fill that cavity with lots of things but Jesus the true bread from heaven. Deep in every human soul is a search for “Harmony” with our Creator, that was lost in the Garden of Eden.

    Every act that you perform is a seed of one kind or another. Something will grow from it. What will your seeds produce?

    Wars have been fought over differences seemingly smaller than the contrasts we see between the five parables in this passage from Matthew’s gospel.

    Salvation is not achieved; it is received.

    I hope that every person within earshot of my voice today is a believer in our Lord Jesus Christ. Nothing else would please me so much as if that were the case. But I cannot risk thinking it is so if it is not. Too much is at stake. Eternity is at stake. For it only faith in Christ that will secure ...read more

    Paul gives thanks for the church at Thessalonica because they were growing despite persecution. How can we learn to pray from his example?

    From time to time, I enjoy reading prayers parents share that were prayed by their children. Here are just a few prayers of thanks that I have come across. Dear Lord, thank you that we can come to church today and thank you that no one got their head crushed or lost their arm on the way here. Dear ...read more
