    The good shepherd is honest and upright; The good shepherd has an intimate relationship with His sheep; The good shepherd loves, leads, & guides as his sheep follow him. The good shepherd is alert and keeps his sheep alert to dangers all around.

    Sermon: The Characteristics of a Good Shepherd John 10:1-10 ““I tell you the truth, anyone who sneaks over the wall of a sheepfold, rather than going through the gate, must surely be a thief and a robber! 2 But the one who enters through the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 The gatekeeper opens ...read more

    Saints; If we want to be effective for the cause of Christ we need a song in our hearts. If we want to assure people that our God provides eternal peace and hope we will need a smile on our face. If we want people to hear the joy of our salvation that comes from knowing Jesus as our Saviour they ...read more

     | 976 views

    We live in a world that tells us to "follow our heart." But what if the heart we’re following is broken, bent toward sin, and far from God? What if the very core of our being—our heart—is deceitful and desperately wicked?

    Go! And Examine Your Heart - Jeremiah 17:9-10 Jeremiah 17:9-10 (NLT): "The human heart is the most deceitful of all things, and desperately wicked. Who really knows how bad it is? But I, the LORD, search all hearts and examine secret motives. I give all people their due rewards, according to ...read more

    James 5 Pray Smart Series

    Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Oct 21, 2018
     | 8,500 views

    I first titled this message “Pray right” but I changed my topic because it’s about “praying smart” – we need to be using the wisdom of God to pray the smart way which then touches the heart of God and eventually our hearts!

    Video: Prayer Series: James – Let’s do it! Thesis of Book: The message of the book is “Let’s do it – live the faith – put it into action!

    We Are Not Ignorant Of Satan’s Devices Or Schemes – Part 7 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Dec 6, 2023
     | 1,590 views

    We live in a corrupt world. Truth has stumbled in the street, and uprightness cannot enter. Satan permeates right through society especially in the judiciary. There is little justice any more. We look at ways Christians are penalised by Satan’s system, but evil is promoted.

    WE ARE NOT IGNORANT OF SATAN’S DEVICES OR SCHEMES – PART 7 We continue this study of the schemes Satan uses to infiltrate all aspects of humanity. His influence is everywhere. We need wisdom and reliance on the Lord for the battle we are engaged in. We will examine two more of these schemes. ...read more

    Funeral service for Elizabeth Wilkey Abernethy, a quiet yet committed long-term church member who struggled with cancer for nine years. We can wait if, like Liz, we are self-controlled, upright, and godly, for the glory of the risen Christ is coming.

    I am not very good at waiting. Are you? I do not like to sit and twiddle my thumbs waiting for something to happen.
