    Love Yourself

    Contributed by Steve Gladwell on Oct 20, 2002
    based on 46 ratings
     | 9,767 views

    Why should we love ourselves? Are we worth loving?

    As yourself! How many of you remember the stories about Narnia? I have learnt about them again fairly recently as my son has become interested in the series. We are reading the Magicians Nephew together at the moment, and Thomas has recently been watching the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe on ...read more

    Jesus: The Source Of Abundant Life

    Contributed by Rev. Duraimony Dickson on Feb 12, 2025
     | 623 views

    Jesus came so that you might have life—true, abundant life. In contrast, Satan's mission is to rob you of that life. As John 10:10 tells us, "The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.

    Jesus came into this world so that we would have new hope and new life. He said in John 10:10, "The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come, that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. Jesus came so that you might have life—true, ...read more

    Remember always the beauty with which our souls came into this world – the gifts, the talents, and strengths -- are to accomplish the will of God for our lives in this world.

    In today's Gospel reading, Jesus speaks powerful words about our soul, raising the question of what is there if we gain the whole world at the cost of losing it. To ponder the soul that God has given us, I'd like to share two stories with you. The first story is from my days of teaching ...read more

    A Sower Went Out To Sow

    A comparison of two farmers - why one is sad, and one is carefree.

    A Sower Went Out To Sow His Seed I would like to compare two farmers, or sowers of seed, this morning. They are very different in their outlook. First let’s look at the one in our gospel lesson, Luke 8:4-15. This man goes out to sow his seed, but he is not a very careful sower, is he? Some of ...read more

    In the Bible Jesus says, “I came to seek and to save what was lost.” Jesus came to proclaim good news to the captives. Jesus came to reveal the truth about God. Jesus came to be light in a dark world. But what if I told you that it’s not quite as simp

    Jesus Calms The Storm Series

    We are to walk by faith not sight. Of course you can’t see the outcome of your storm. That would be sight. Why are you so afraid? You have been with Jesus for so long. Do you still have so little faith?

    Are you going through one of life's storms? You need to know if anyone cares. Does Jesus care what happens? If you have visited Israel then no doubt one of your fondest memories of the trip is the Sea of Galilee. This area has so much natural beauty with the fresh water lake surrounded by ...read more

    The Spirit who brings wisdom and revelation is the Holy Spirit. It is God himself visiting us to give us his wisdom, and to give us revelation. Why? According to Ephesians 1:17 it’s so that we may know him better.

    A King Like This - Part 2

    As Jesus came to earth as a baby, destined to grow up and be the Lamb of God to be sacrificed for the sins of the world, He voluntarily limited the use of His divine attributes.

    Last time we answered two very important questions: “What does the Incarnation mean for Jesus?” and “What does the Incarnation mean for us?” What does this mean for Him? Jesus, who had come to earth as God and King, put on a body. He was God, but He restricted the independent use of His deity, ...read more

    Why We Exist (The Church)

    Contributed by Darin Gary on Jun 25, 2016
     | 5,107 views

    In spite of the sinful deeds and intentions of a few who claim a 'relationship' with God, and who 'work' within the auspices of some Christian denominations, the Lord Jesus has NOT abandoned the true ethos of the Church, nor the TRUE CHURCH itself.

    WHY WE EXIST (The Church’s Mission Statement) (Matt. 16:17-18; NKJV) – “…Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. [18] And, I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My ...read more

    Why would God give mankind the law if the law couldn’t save anybody? When we answer this question, we will gain insight as to why Jesus Christ had to die on the cross.

    When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?” So they said, “Some say John the Baptist, some Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”

    Why do we Pray? Why do we read our Bibles daily? Why do we Give? Why are we at the Church when the doors are open? Do we think that by doing these things that we are earning "points" with God? Are we trying to obligate God to bless us? Duty or Desire?

    The Presence Of God Illustration In 1943, a lady by the name of Rhea B. Miller wrote one of the greatest hymns ever written: I’D RATHER HAVE JESUS! This wonderful hymn so influenced one young man that it determined the direction of his entire life. This young man had grown up with devoted ...read more
