    Jesus tells us we will always have the poor with us -- but what are we supposed to DO with the poor?

    Deuteronomy 15:4-11 There should be no poor among you, for in the land the LORD your God is giving you to possess as your inheritance, he will richly bless you, if only you fully obey the LORD your God and are careful to follow all these commands I am giving you today.

    This sermon is about how we need to tell our loved ones what they mean to us while they are still with us.

    A look at examples of stewardship in the Gospel of John.

    Introduction · So what is the “S” word? · Hint – it’s a topic that is frequently avoided in polite Christian circles. One that we don’t like to discuss. One that we should talk about more that we do. · Sin? Good guess. It comes close, but not quite. · Sex? We could hear more good teaching on this ...read more

    It doesn’t take long at this dinner party before the chaos breaks out, this time through the surprising appearance of Mary, pouring a ludicrously expensive jar of perfume.

    We’re turning to John’s Gospel today, which, quite frankly, is a little unnerving for me, as I find John’s Gospel more difficult to deal with than the other three John retells the story of Jesus in such a way that things are rarely as they appear to be. Jesus speaks of being born ’from above’ and ...read more

    Scripture Introduction We believe that God’s people need God’s word rightly applied in order to grow in faith and love and every grace.
