    Jesus Can Offer Peace The World Cannot Give!

    Introduction: The word “peace” only occurs five times in the Gospel of John. Two times before the resurrection of Jesus and three times after the resurrection of Jesus. I find it incredibly interesting that there are 88 occurrences of this word in the NT. The only NT book that does NOT contain ...read more

We are all overwhemled during various stages of our lives and God has a place he wants to lead us to; ...read more

    Bread, Water And Rest

    Contributed by Steve Anderson on Dec 18, 2014
     | 5,960 views

    Funeral sermon for a 16-year old who took his life by suicide at 3 AM by gunshot. It is based on what God provided Elijah when he wanted to die. Its intent is to offer the equivalent of bread, water and rest to the grieving, especially peers and family.

    Background (1 Kings 18): 450 idol prophets; 2 altars, 1 fire; Elijah stood up to 450 prophets of Baal but ran for his life when one woman threatened him (1 Kings 19:3-8). Elijah wanted to die, he had poured out his life for God and felt it had no impact. He was tired and in despair, depressed. ...read more

    Jesus knew that the hypocrites in the crowd would accuse Him of playing God. So Our Lord asks, “what is easier for me to say, ‘your sins are forgiven’ or ‘arise and walk.’”

    Friday of the First Week in Course 2025 Psalm 29 is prescribed for all of us clerics as the first prayer of the Divine Office. It’s a very short history of the Israelites.

    I preached this at my grandmother’s funeral. She was 88 and althogh her health had been declining, her death was very sudden. Her last request of me was to officiate at her funeral, which I did and was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my ministry.

    (Reading of the obituary) I think it’s pretty safe to say that this day came as a great shock to almost every one of us in this room here today. While we knew that Grandma wasn’t in the best of health, and had some past health issues a little over 4 years ago, none of us thought that we’d be ...read more
