    Jesus was born unto us bearing the gift of forgiveness. Shouldn’t we extend that same gift to others?

    Good morning, I want to start this morning by us all singing a verse of Silent night. That was great. Singing that song probably brought visions of a Nativity scene to your thoughts..

    Peter’s question about how often to forgive allows Jesus to answer a different question: what is forgiveness.

    What is forgiveness? Matthew 18:21-35 As I’m sure most of you have noticed, in our worship here we recite the Lord’s prayer twice during our worship. In the history of Christian worship this is a fairly low number of times to use the Lord’s prayer. When Thomas Cranmer revised the Sarum Mass in ...read more

    Forgiveness has eternal consequences. Perhaps that is why Jesus included it in his model prayer saying we are forgiven only when we forgive. Satan does not have to get us with every sin in the bible. All he needs is to get us with one.

    Do you like scary stories?  I have never really been into scary movies, although I went to a couple as a teenager just to prove a point.  And if you have to ask what that point is then you’ve never been a teenaged boy. And when Carrie’s hand came out of the grave at the end of the original movie, ...read more
