    We will never be as close to Christ as we could be or think we are if we are oblivious to today’s issues or build monuments to past achievements.

    We can be close to something, and yet miss it. We can be almost on target, almost where we want to .be, and yet, if we’re not exactly where we ought to be, we miss it. So near and yet so far. A couple of years ago, when my wife and I were touring England, we were in Victoria Station, one of the ...read more

    When Paul spoke to Felix about faith in Christ he discussed righteousness, self-control and the judgment to come. It scared Felix, but not enough. What motivates us to live for Christ?

    What would you risk your life for? Acts 15:26 speaks of “men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.” Paul asks the question in 1 Cor. 15:30, “Why do we stand in jeopardy every hour?” In Romans 8 he quotes Psalms 44 and applies it to Christians: “For your sake we ...read more

    Being Renewed (Graduation Sunday) Series

     | 2,310 views

    We think home is a place of renewal. We think we can go home and rest. And we can, but only if our focus is right. Home won’t renew us, won’t build us up, unless the focus of our home is on the One who raises us into a new kingdom, a new reality.

    Main: If you’re looking for snapshots of well-adjusted and happy parent-child relationships from the ancient world, the Bible probably shouldn’t be on your short list of sources. Consider even Jesus’ family, for example. The New Testament preserves evidence suggesting that Jesus’ relationship with ...read more

    PUTTING JESUS FIRST. Luke 14:25-33. I. Prioritising commitments. Jesus, it has to be admitted, is a great orator.
