Like, does it make you think of knocking on strangers' doors or trying to convince your friends at school to come to church? It can feel a bit like you're being asked to sell something, right? Well, let's take a chill pill ...read more

    Contributed by Matthew Oliver on Jan 7, 2002
    based on 10 ratings
     | 5,536 views

    In many ways the Christian church is a church in exile as many of our traditional power bases have been lost. We are not to focus on things of man, but things of God, in prayer and faith. Perseverance in prayer is the key.

Sermon for Proper 29, Year C 21 October 2001 St John the Evangelist, Cold Lake Jeremiah 31:27-34 Psalm 119:94-104 2 Tim 3:14-4:5 Luke 18:1-8 One of the joys of being a Lay Reader is the privilege of preaching God’s word before His people.

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,728 views

    In these five verses Jesus sets forth 1) the original Mosaic teaching, 2) the traditional perversion of that teaching, and 3) His own reemphasis of what God’s standard for truth has always been.

    Whether you are a child or an adult, Truth is so scarce that nearly everyone is suspect. Business people, advertisers, commentators, clerks, salesmen, lawyers, doctors, tradesmen, teachers, writers, politicians, and even many, if not most, preachers are suspect. Our whole society is largely built ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,534 views

    Helping ourselves and others relate to Jesus not as one who started a new religion… nor who can be known merely through religious tradition… but who defies religious confines… and who seeks relationship.

    Intro – One of the more interesting dynamics in my own process of having ‘holy conversation’ is when someone asks what I do. When they discover I’m a pastor… I’ve seen all sorts of things go off. Discomfort with their behavior, discomfort with what they then expect from me, or even just ...read more

  • The Church Is One Foundation And Jesus Christ Her Lord.

    Contributed by James Linders on Jun 3, 2015
     | 3,226 views

    The church of God is a unified body and has a primary objective. The body of Christ (Church) can NOT be subjected to man-made traditions and denominations, and MUST be led by the spirit of God. Man is ONLY an overseer and NOT the head of the church.

    Acts 2:42 “They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.” BEFORE Jesus departed from His disciples, to return to His heavenly kingdom, He gave them a FINAL instruction:"Go and make disciples of ALL the nations, ...read more

    People have been giving to God from tradition to fear to attempted manipulation. Truthfully, God doesn't need our money. And we only honor him when it's given cheerfully.

    At the beginning of last year, I issued everyone a challenge. That challenge was to trust God with your finances more in 2014 than you have been. The first six months were great. The response to the challenge was accepted. Then we lost two families. Both families were faithful givers and the ...read more

    There has been a growing interest in the healing ability of music within the church. That has led some to explore ancient religious music traditions and practices as people seek supernatural encounters and deeper intimacy with God.

    “Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth, burst into jubilant song with music; make music to the LORD with the harp, with the harp and the sound of singing, with trumpets and the blast of the ram's horn — shout for joy before the LORD, the King.” (Ps 98:4-6 NIV) Music has always been an ...read more
