     | 3,842 views

    The first part of my New Year message for 2014 focuses upon the meaning of discipleship

    [A note to the reader: Please note this is not intended to be an expository sermon. I do use the Bible text in question but I relate this to a particular time at a particular church and what God is doing in our midst. If it helps you, great!] A few things that you’ll rarely, if ever, hear in ...read more

    We will never be tried beyond our strength.Jesus Christ our Lord shows us that suffering and death have meaning and helps us to carriy our burdens cheerfully.

    SUFFERING There is a natural revulsion to suffering in us all. No one likes pain or irritation. Our natural inclination is to avoid suffering at all costs. What a lot of weeping there is in the world! If we could gather it in one place it would fill a sea, a great ocean. We are not free from ...read more

    The Meaning Of Love

    Jesus teaching on love is totally radical. He pushes us to practice love, rather than giving excuses, and he points out that to love is to be a neighbour to anyone we might come across who needs our care.

    You may remember the Beatles, back in the 60’s singing "All you need is Love." There’s no doubt that there was a great truth carried in those simple lyrics. If we were to look around the world today, it’s clear that a good dose of love would cure many of the world’s ills. But it’s easier said than ...read more

    For many people, baptism is shrouded in such great mystery that they fear giving their heart and life to Christ because they don’t want to go through being baptized. This message seeks to clear up some misconceptions.

    Allow me to begin with a cute illustration. “The six-year-old grandson of Ruth Kirby told his mother that he had been baptized. Well, mom knew he hadn’t been formally baptized, so she probed a little further into the matter. She asked him to explain what he meant by ‘baptized.’ Little Blake ...read more

    5th of 5 on life after life. This was preached on Easter Sunday. Credit for the main illustration goes to Matthew Rogers. Sermon Central contributor.

    It was a windy but sunny spring day in May of 1986… Matt was a part of the team but the best runner was John Waller. John was somewhat of a living legend at that time in boys track. He was an incredibly gifted runner who had consistently placed in the top 5-10 spots in the mile run at the state ...read more

    The Meaning Of Life

    This sermon examines the profound topic of The Meaning of Life from a wordly and then Godly perspective to bring the listener to a point of clarity in their life's meaning and purpose.

    The Meaning of Life To begin our discussion of the meaning of life, we began with life's end, death. Bill Moyers, the famous commentator who spoke at SMU during the week, quoted on death: "Each night when we pitch our tent, we are one day's walk closer to our final destination." "Through ...read more

    God has promised us a new creation and empowers us to live it in the here and now, as it has already been purchased for us through Jesus’ death on the cross.

    Years ago (in fact it was the first summer after we were married), Karen and I decided that we would spend our summer vacation visiting her relatives and my birthplace here in Nova Scotia. We didn’t have a large salary between us, and we were young and adventuresome, so we decided that it would be ...read more

    This message highlights the biblical importance of being a member of a local church. It was delivered on membership Sunday before presenting the new members to the congregation.

    Jesus will give existence to your decomposed bodies. He allows no one to go out of existence.
