    I believe there our three categories that tell us how people are 1.Those that think they know where their going, 2.Those that say they know where their going, 3. and Those that know where their going.

    Do you know..Where you're Going? Ask most anyone that question..and the response will be, absolutely..and I know how to get there too! Everyone likes to think that they have some sense of direction and almost anyone you would ask, They Would like to think that their going in the right direction, ...read more

    Commitment: A Disappearing Animal

    Contributed by Kelly Durant on Apr 12, 2015
     | 6,630 views

    The thing about church is quite often people do not sacrifice much at all for it and then they get frustrated thinking it is the pastor or somebody’s fault when something is lacking or the problems appear but the reality they may be the problem!

    Commitment: A Disappearing Animal Kelly Durant 2 Samuel 24:24 And the king said unto Araunah, Nay; but I will surely buy it of thee at a price: neither will I offer burnt offerings unto the Lord my God of that which doth cost me nothing. So David bought ...read more

    Manipulation By Guilt Vs. Straightforward Requests Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 26, 2016
     | 5,870 views

    Manipulation is a dishonest method to control others, get our way, or make others think an idea was theirs; it stands in contrast to making honest straightforward requests. Manipulation by guilt is perhaps the most common form of manipulation.

    Manipulation by Guilt Vs. Straightforward Requests (topical) 1. A lot of persuasion — even in church — can be based upon emotion and a lack of logic. “Pastor Smith was winding up his sermon about the dangers of alcohol and the need for temperance. He shouted, 'If I had all the ...read more

    The Transformation Of Zacchaeus, And Us Too If We Would Listen And Believe.

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Nov 1, 2016
     | 6,794 views

    What others think of us is irrelevant to the Lord. It is what he see in us that is important. Zacchaeus show us how the power of God is used to free us from the influence of others, and free us to be ourselves.

    This sermon was delivered to Holy Trinity in Ayr, Ayrshire, Scotland on the 30th October 2016; Holy Trinity is a Scottish Episcopal Church in the Dioceses of Glasgow and Dumfries.

    The Balancing Act

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Jan 29, 2013
     | 3,862 views

    We think of how important serving others and "convertng" others is, but we must be balanced. The process does not end in baptism it continues after. This is why Jesus told us to make "disciples" not merely "converts."

    Answering God’s Call

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jul 20, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 13,066 views

    What response will we make to Jesus when he enters our lives and invites us to “repent and believe”? He announces a call and invites us to answer with a new way of thinking and acting.

    In Mark 1:14-20, we hear the story of the start of Jesus’ earthly ministry. He is beginning his ministry just as John the Baptist is ending his ministry. Both of them called on the people to repent. The main difference between both ministries is that while John the Baptist was a one man show, ...read more

     | 8,121 views

    Much of the Christian’s thinking and decision making today is based on the senses and not on the Scripture. The church has lost her preoccupation with Scripture. The church has fallen away from a passion and love for the Word of God.

     | 4,428 views

    We tend to think of some people as almost unsaveable, but is that true? And when Paul describes a litany of sinners, he also notes that "such were some of you." Truly, there will be scoundrels in heaven, including you and me

    We can think of ourselves more highly than we ought, but we can never exalt Jesus beyond what he is worthy. John says in verse 5 that Jesus is the ruler of kings on the earth.

    We often think of forgetfulness as a weakness, as a problem. And more often than not that is true. But there is a time when forgetfulness becomes an absolute necessity. Paul says that ‘Love – keeps no record of wrongs’ He says that love is forgetful.

    In the middle of that list of what love is, Paul says that ‘Love – keeps no record of wrongs’ (v5). In other words what he is saying is that, as well as being patient, and kind and a whole host of other things – love is also forgetful! –‘ Love - keeps no record of wrongs’ Love is forgetful!
