    Faith without works is dead. How often have I heard that sitting in the pews. James talks about meeting peoples needs as a way of showing faith. I want to take that a step further.

    James 2:14-26 what good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? (15) Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. (16) If one of you says to him, “Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about his physical ...read more

    Whether as members of the church or government we have a responsibility to take care of the poor. Let’s look at what God’s Word has to say about those who neglect or oppress the poor.

    The rich continue to get richer and the poor get poorer. I have no problem with the rich who work for their wealth, but the problem lies with those who gain wealth at the expense of the poor. In our state for instance, our governor scaled back the $5 billion medicaid program for the poor. This ...read more

    Integrity is a "MUST" if we want to experience the life Jesus died to give us and is shown in the little things in life. Take care of the little things privately and you will have to deal with the big things publicly.

    Father Dave’s Sermon on Matthew 21:33-46 & the East Timorese Martyrs. The nature of God, the price he’s willing to pay for His ’Vineyard’ and the wait for the justice that will eventually take place.

    Wednesday is the feast of ’the Saints and Martyrs of Asia’. It is a tragic irony that on the very day it is celebrated, more East Timorese martyrs will probably be added to their number! A Protestant Christian leader has been killed. The Communion of Churches in Indonesia has confirmed that the ...read more

    Worry kills us, it destroys our joy and takes many things from our lives. Let’s study today what God’s word has to tell us in light of this.

    So what does God’s word tell us about this preoccupation many of us have with worrying? Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? ...read more

    Living in a violent world calls for a more aggressive approach to prayer warfare. The prayer of Hannah epitomises the importance of the Holy Spirit as an intersessor and it is only when he takes over that answers to prayers are made manifest.

    The Prayer of Hannah. Prayer is communication between man and God. One of the ways your request or your desire or expectation can be granted is through the place of prayers. The Bible says we should pray without ceasing. That is we must pray in and out ...read more
