    Part 4 - When God is in control, I don’t have to be.

    Who likes to be in charge? Be honest, how many of you like to be in charge, you like to be in control? Most of us, even if we don’t like the responsibility, do like to be in control. It’s a natural thing. That doesn’t mean it’s right, but it is natural. WE We like to have our way. We ...read more

    In a world marked by violence, the ancient story of Jacob and Esau reminds us that conflict has always been a part of the way God deals with his people, and it contains with...

    We gather together today in the wake of the terrible terrorist attacks in London - violence that I suspect has left none of us unaffected. Tony Blair said, “They will never succeed in destroying what we hold dear” , and it’s hard not to admire his resilience, even though we recognise, I think, ...read more

    This message is about vessels! I am sure you must have guessed from the title. Our main bible text is from 2 Corinthians 4: 7-9: But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 9,608 views

    What does it mean to be transformed into the image of Christ? This Quinceanera message addresses more than just a coming of age celebration. It focuses on the butterfly-like change that can take place in God's people.

    (I was honored to preach the sermon at the Quinceanera - pronounced “kin-sin-yarra” - of one of our Hispanic members. I wanted to do this right, so I studied a lot about this event means. I discovered that a Quinceanera is a celebration of the 15th birthday (Quinceanera literally means “15th year). ...read more

    As a disciple of Jesus living for Him means that you will face challenges that most will not experience. If you are living as a committed disciple of Jesus, then trouble will come your way.

    Sermon Text: Eph 3:16-21 16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, 17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all the ...read more

    Stumbing Along

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 19, 2023
     | 1,309 views

    Unexamined assumptions can cause us to stumble over things we don't even notice.

    It’s a little disconcerting, sitting down to write a sermon on a passage that you’ve already preached on twice, to find that neither time did you say what you’d planned to say. Of course, only preachers have that problem... Maybe only 60-something preachers have that problem. But more generally, ...read more
