    In a series on the Seven Marks of Discipleship that have been identified by the elders of Good Shepherd Church, this sermon prepares for that series as the congregation participates in a Renewal of Baptism service

    The writer of Ephesians says, “There is one baptism.” Presbyterians believe that very literally. Other churches may baptize their members many times. I know if I were to suddenly become a Southern Baptist, my baptism wouldn’t count. I’d have to be rebaptized. I know some people who every few ...read more

    Now the question – was Mary really Jesus’ wife and mother of Sarah, the child Jesus supposedly fathered to establish a royal bloodline to rule the earth?

    Many women were also there, looking on from a distance; they had followed Jesus from Galilee and had provided for him. Matthew 27:55 (NRSVA) The DaVinci Code movie will be released this week. The fact that it coincides with Mother’s Day does not surprise me. Part of the conspiracy theory of ...read more

    The second in a two part sermon on Psalm one.

    As looked at Psalm 1 last time, we said that it naturally falls into two divisions of 3 verses each. Verses 1-3 describe the man who is blessed by God, while verses 4-6 describe the man who is condemned by God. The man who is blessed by God is separated from the world. He thinks differently, acts ...read more

    Jesus told this parable to remind us that what we have is not ours. God has given us gifts and they are what we can handle. We must invest and use them. A day of accountability will come.

    1 Peter 4:10: “Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms.” It is not too difficult to identify the talents we have. • Some are good at music, some good at drawing, cooking, writing… • After a short period of time, ...read more

    Be A Peacemaker Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,363 views

    To make peace is not to compromise or avoid confrontation. Abraham set us a good example. We must have the desire to make peace, treasure the relationship, be generous in heart and avoid a self-centred view of things.

    JOHN PIPER says the cry of the beatitudes is this: “Get a new heart!” • They are not good suggestions, but what every Christian ought to be. • The beatitudes counter the false understanding that a person can be saved without being changed. Or: that a person can inherit eternal life even if his ...read more
