    This is an exposition of the passage on Stephen who was the first martyr.

    How important is the resurrection to us as Christians? It may carry more importance than you thought.

    I love this particular season. Easter holds with me a special place. There is just something about this particular time, and what it means to Christianity, that somehow seems to excite me. One thing that is normal for Easter is that you get a lot of visitors to come to church. That can be ...read more

    When people come to your church, what will they find there? Will they find Jesus there? Will they find love, acceptance, fellowship, salvation there?

    The story that I begin with today is a true story. Her name was Helen. She lived in New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada. They found her body one night at the door of Emmanuel Pentecostal Church. Helen had been trying to get into the church. But she never got further than the door. There ...read more

    based on 141 ratings
     | 19,985 views

    In a Church where diversity is the norm, our unity is of vital importance. Let’s remember to emphasise the centrality of Christ as Lord and of the saving power of the gospel; and the need to look to Christ rather than to human wisdom to determine how to l

    I guess most people would say that we’ve come a long way in the past 2000 years. We’re far better educated. We’re much more sophisticated. We know a whole lot more about the world we live in, the universe around us, the microscopic world within. We have the benefit of 2000 years of thinking, of ...read more

    Why love is so crucial in our Christian walk and use reflections of Memorial Day to describe that.

    The Beatles song, Love, love, love is all you need was a popular song. Young people of that time echoed that sentiment in their actions and in how they lived their lives. They thought this was a new concept that their parents just wouldn’t or couldn’t get. But the concept was far older than the ...read more

    based on 57 ratings
     | 6,550 views

    God’s Word tells us that Christ is infinitely superior to all others, and therefore should be first and foremost in the life of the Christian.

    Christ, The Preeminent One Text: Col.1: 18 Intro: I have heard some very well meaning people make the statement, “The Lord is a big part of my life.” We all know what is meant by that statement, and certainly would find it somewhat commendable.

    As Phillip witnessed to the eunuch we would do well to chase chariots and share our faith by every possible means.

    Chasing Chariots Acts 8:26-39 Introduction A few days ago I received this true account over the Internet. A young man had just left his Wednesday evening Bible study. Sitting in his car he prayed, "Lord, we studied tonight about your speaking to Samuel. Do you still speak to people today? ...read more

    For Christ the King Sunday: This message contrasts the one-time celebrations to which we "invite" the turkey to the full-time, all-seasons lordship of Jesus.

    After Thanksgiving dinner, the men in the house retired to the family room to share in that most sacred of spiritual rituals – we worshipped at the shrine of the great god football. And it was not long before someone scored a touchdown and went into a liturgical dance in the end zone: high fives, ...read more

    Jesus anointing at Bethany followed by the triumphal entry to Jerusalem

    One of the things the gospel writers do as they present their accounts of the life and words of Jesus, is to describe the wide range of responses to Jesus. That’s very apparent in today’s reading from John 12. Here we see a range of responses to Jesus, ranging from Mary’s loving devotion to the ...read more

    We all stand before the Ancient of Days sooner or later.

    A year or so ago my son introduced me to a type of music called ska. I had no idea what it was, but after I heard it, I liked it. It sounds a little like big band music, a little like Latino music, lots of horns mixed in with guitars and drums. Some of it is fast, and some of it is slow. It’s ...read more

    Third Commandment: How not to use God’s name emptily, keeping it full of meaning.

    Names are important. Choosing a name for a new baby can occupy a couple right up until birth - sometimes even beyond. My godchildren’s father Chad drove my friend Caryl crazy right up to delivery insisting that any son of his would be named Beowulf. I think he was just pulling her chain but Chad ...read more
