Part 2 - Why So Much Anger? Series

Contributed by Russell Brownworth on Jan 15, 2010

Anger is in every part of life; why?

We encounter so much anger in everyday life that most of us have become somewhat desensitized to it. Everywhere you go, and in every realm of existence there is anger – some is miniature in its impact, some wildly excessive. And some of it is our own! • It is a fact of life in business places and ...read more

Follow The Leader Series

Contributed by Steven Buhr on Jan 22, 2010

If we are going to play follow the leader in this life, we had better be sure we are following the RIGHT leader, Jesus. Anyone else could and will lead us away from where God would love to have all of us arrive in the end…in His arms. Will you follow Him?

How many of us have played the game, Follow the Leader? It’s a simple game where one person plays the ‘leader’ and all the other participants have to ‘follow’ wherever and whatever the leader does; walk where they walk, walk HOW they walk, or run or crawl or hop. The ...read more

Picky Picky Belief Series

Contributed by Pat Cook on Apr 14, 2006

The religious leaders were selective about which laws to follow and which ones to ignore or defy. We are too. The point of this is to expose our own double-standards and lead us to show mercy to others.

John 19:31-37 – Picky Picky Belief Tonight, in our last message of The Life of Jesus before Resurrection Day, I’d like to point out an interesting characteristic about the religious leaders that really bears hearing. Just to let you know: likely something I say tonight might make you angry. ...read more

Jesus, The Living Saviour

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Apr 15, 2006

What if there is no resurrection? It means death has won and there is no life. It means darkness reigns and there is no hope. But Christ has been raised, therefore now we have God’s gift of life and hope.

[I’ve taken some points in this sermon from Rodney Buchanan’s sermon ‘Jesus, the Living Savior’ at SermonCentral.] BUDDHA’S FINGERS In 1981 there was a devastating flood in central China. During the flood an ancient pagoda collapsed at Famen Temple. A few years later, archaeologists were ...read more

Calling All Angels Series

Contributed by Pat Cook on May 2, 2006

This talks about the role that angels played on the first Resurrection day. God used them because He wanted to, not because He had to. It’s the same with His servants today.

Luke 24:1-8 – Calling All Angels Tonight we are continuing to look at various angles of the resurrection and what it means for us today. Tonight’s message is a thought I have never preached on before, and I hope that it speaks to your heart. I’m talking about angels. Let’s read Luke 24:1-7. ...read more

Distractions Series

Contributed by Pat Cook on May 30, 2006

Three times people did not recognize the Risen Jesus. This looks at why. There were spiritual reasons, of course, but also real physical reasons too. This looks at what distracts us from seeing Jesus.

John 20:10-18 – Distractions Today we are continuing our series called He is Risen Indeed, messages about Jesus rising from the dead and what that means for us some 1976 years later.

Friendship With God

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Feb 6, 2006

Prayer is more than just asking God. It is communion between two friends. God seeks friendship with man, for He is an intensely personal God.

The passage we’ve just read today is prayer – when a man meets God and talks to Him. It is, the Bible says, “as a man speaks with his friend” (v.11). We will not fully understand prayer if we think about it only as something to do with asking something from God. Prayer is not just about ...read more

Treat Others The Way You Want To Be Treated
