    Closer

    Contributed by Greg Burcham on Sep 4, 2016
     | 10,633 views

    This sermon deals with some of the reasons we fail to draw close to God and the virtues of being close to God.

    How close is close enough? Closer Zeno’s paradox. Imagine I had high school boys and girls lined up at opposite ends of the gym and had them half the distance between them every 10 seconds, how long would it be before they are touching? Well, if I always half the distance, they will never ...read more

     | 1,525 views

    There is no "on the mountain" and "off the mountain" which can be explained by the virtue of equanimity.

    Peter was talking, but yielded to the voice from heaven and listened. “Listen to him" we hear from God the Father. Matthew 17:5 A woman named Barb tells about an incident that happened in her granddaughter’s kindergarten class. A boy in the class just wasn’t listening to his teacher. The ...read more

    Seeking The Best For Others Series

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Sep 19, 2016
     | 7,164 views

    The virtues of goodness and kindness do not come to us naturally and just like the other virtues of Jesus we need to be taught them. Imagine if you will two small children wanting the same toy at the same time. You get the point. We have to be taught.

    Seeking the best for others Kindness and goodness 1 Peter 3:8-18 8 Finally, all of you, be like-minded, be sympathetic, love one another, be compassionate and humble. 9 Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult.

     | 3,046 views

    There is cause for hope, even as the culture appears to be winning over the Church: Christ will be victorious though we will suffer for the victory.

    Third Sunday of Lent 2012 Spirit of the Liturgy The Word of God today sounds a little like a conversation between a father and his child about spring break. Dad lays down the rules for his offspring’s safety: don’t pay homage to things that don’t deserve homage; don’t ...read more

    How do we live in harmony? The secret is in the Lord’s Prayer, the beautiful prayer of the end-times that we recite in one voice every time we gather for Liturgy.

    2nd Sunday of Advent With this great reading about John the Baptist from Matthew’s Gospel, you probably expect me to sermonize on repenting of sin as a preparation for Christmas. You might anticipate an exhortation to examine your consciences, identify those actions and attitudes that estrange ...read more

     | 1,592 views

    In faith we tell God, “I believe this because you have revealed it for my good, even and especially when I can’t understand it.”

    Ascension Day 2021 “You’ve got to be kidding. This is impossible. It’s all impossible.” That’s what the skeptic is bound to say about everything we’ve been reading since Good Friday. Jesus was nailed to a cross, pierced in His heart, dead as the lambs being sacrificed at the same time in the ...read more

    Intolerable Tolerance Series

     | 5,273 views

    Sometimes tolerance is not a virtue; a deviation outside the specifications can be a matter of life and death, not just sub-optimum functioning.

    It’s been a week of tragedy, hasn’t it. Not on the scale of September 11, of course, but still - a tragedy. No one ever thought that the Columbia would crash. Particularly no one ever thought that it would crash on re-entry... But something did, and so today we are mourning the death ...read more

    Loyalty is a virtue. Loyalty seeks to honour God, it values the relationship and God rewards our faithfulness. God is loyal.

    Loyalty is a virtue. Loyalty is to be faithful, to stick to a commitment. • But unfortunately loyalty is losing its appeal today.
