From Death To Life

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 9, 2022

The Christmas Star

Contributed by Richard Stevens on Sep 17, 2024

The Star of Christmas is not the star that led the Maji from Mesopotamia to Jerusalem and ultimately to Bethlehem. It's not the star on the top of our Christmas tree, not Santa Claus, not our good feelings, good will, gifts, hopes for peace, celebrations or any of the rest.

SLIDE – Introduction I want to talk a little while this morning about the Star of Christmas. Now, I’m NOT talking about the Star that appeared to the Maji. That Star they led from Mesopotamia over to Jerusalem. That Star that King Herod couldn’t see and didn’t know about. So, Herod called ...read more

Have you ever stood in awe of the natural world? The mountains, the oceans, the storms - each displays the power and grandeur of our Creator.

When There Is No More Wine, He Makes New Wine

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on May 31, 2025

If your life has lost its “wine”—whether joy, peace, favour, or purpose—Jesus is still the One who makes new wine. He doesn’t just refill what is empty; He transforms what is common into something extraordinary.

We drove 20 minutes to the nearest Presbyterian Church and on one of those first Sundays I found myself in a large ...read more

When God Says "No”!

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 16, 2022

One of the many things we take for granted each day is our God-given ability to be able to communicate with each other. But sometimes the words we use get us in a lot of trouble.

Illus: This reminds us of the young male clerk who was working at a department store's fabric counter. A very pretty girl said to the young male clerk, "I want to buy this material for a new dress. How much will this fabric cost?" He smilingly said, "Only a kiss a ...read more

Over Coming Battle Fatigue

Contributed by Don Campbell on Apr 25, 2023

The first line of the hymn Peace in the Valley reflects the discouragement that often fills the hearts of weary travelers: “Well, I’m so tired and so weary, but I must go along; till the Lord comes and calls me away.” If we are fighting the good fight, we are subject to battle fatigue.

Is The Judge Unjust?

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 19, 2011

Why does a just God delay justice? How can a loving God allow evil? Why do we think we can judge God by our standards?

Have you ever felt that God was just like the judge in Luke’s parable? Perhaps you have a problem, a need, a pain, a burning question; you bring it before God, and - nothing happens. You remember what Jesus said about persisting in prayer, so you go on battering at the heavenly gates - for ...read more
