    This sermon deals with the reality of blinded eyes and deafened ears of those who are in sin. May God help us to help take the blinders off and the ear plugs out!

    An elderly woman stood on a busy street corner, hesitant to cross because there was no traffic signal. As she waited, a gentleman came up beside her and asked, “May I cross over with you?” Relieved, she thanked him and took his arm. The path they took was anything but safe. The man seemed to be ...read more

    Isaiah prophesied that Yahweh would send a chosen Servant. This Servant would be empowered by God’s Spirit not only to fulfill His covenant promises, He will be the covenant between God and man Himself.

    Surely it is good we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. But why did God send His only Son? What was the reason? It ultimately leads to the cross and forgiveness, and our salvation.

    We talked last week about “What if.” We looked at the Dickens Story “A Christmas Carol” and while acknowledging that “Christ” was not mentioned in the story, as Christians, we look for the message of Christ everywhere. And as such, we said that we might look at the “Spirits” of Christmas past, ...read more

  • The Unexpected Messiah

     | 5,896 views

    Everyone was hoping for, even expecting, the Messiah in Jesus’ day. But, he disappointed everyone, thought Messiah would come as a conqueror. Isaiah’s first Servant Song shows their expectations to have been badly misinformed.

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,092 views

    In Christianity we have God revealed to us in a way that none other can claim, as a God who gives up his own life to bring all people back to himself.

    This is a series based on and heavily dependent on Timothy Keller’s Best Seller "The Reason For God" for which I’m deeply grateful. It uses much of his argument though with various additions by myself. I guess we’re all aware of the Atheists’ conference held in Melbourne in February. You may even ...read more

    based on 4 ratings

    Comparing and contrasting Superman and Jesus, concluding that -- Jesus is the superhero who delivers God’s justice to the world in God’s way.

    Super heroes are popular these days.

NBC is ...read more
