    What does abiding in Christ, who is the true vine mean for me today - mission?

    Sermon Story: When Maddy and I lived in Switzerland we had a couple of vines in the back garden. To be honest, the first year we were there - they looked pretty awful and so Maddy asked her father - as he had been a farmer - to come round and trim them to see if we could get any fruit. I got a ...read more

    Pruning does not simply mean spiritual surgery It is not just the removal of what is dead. It can also mean cutting away the good and the better so that we might enjoy the best.

    For those not familiar with an Anglican Service; there are four Scripture Readings before the Sermon. The Scripture Readings for this day were: Acts 8:26-40; Psalm 22:24-30; 1 John 4:7-21 and John 15:1-8.

    Getting What You Ask For From God

    Contributed by R. Joseph Owles on May 6, 2012
     | 5,741 views

    Based on the Lectionary readings for the 5th Sunday in Easter (Acts 9:26-31; 1 John 3:18-24; John 15:1-8). Jesus says that we can ask anything from God and receive it. 1 John explains it, and Acts shows the consequence.

    Jesus said to his disciples: "I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine grower. He takes away every branch in me that does not bear fruit, and every one that does he prunes so that it bears more fruit. You are already pruned because of the word that I spoke to you. Remain in me, as I remain in ...read more

    Leafy Growth

    Contributed by Jon Lipka on May 6, 2012
     | 3,473 views

    As branches of the vine, it is our purpose to produce much fruit, not simply to serve ourselves by producing leafy growth.

    God told Abram, “All people on earth will be blessed through you” (Gen. 12:3). He was not pointing to Isaac. Nor to Jacob, the first Israel; even though he brought blessing where he went, he was not the perfection of the promise—of God’s covenant. Similarly the sons of Jacob ...read more

    God The Gardener

    God wants us to grow. Like plants, if we actually want to grow, we’ve got to be pruned. God’s discipline is always loving. Accepting it is the key to becoming who God means us to be.

    In Hampton Court near London (start video-http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxzG6C-jrwE), there is a grapevine under glass; it is about 1,000 years old and has but one single root which is at least two feet thick. A formidable root. Some of the branches are 200 feet long. Without careful tending, ...read more

    What characterizes meaningful friendships?

    A small group of friends left town for a weekend of deer hunting, and they paired off in twos for the first day.

    What does it mean today to be called Christ's friends? It means we live as a community, united in Christ's love; we don't focus on differences, but celebrate diversity.

    I’m going to do something this morning that I never thought I would do as a preacher. In fact, I’m going to break one of my cardinal rules of preaching, which is, don’t preach about politics! Now, the truth of the matter is, if I really did preach about politics, I could get ...read more

    “You did not chose me but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in my name He may give you” John 15:16.

    Theme: You are a chosen vessel of Christ Text: Acts 10:44-48; 1 Jn. 5:1-6; Jn. 15:9-17 The root of many problems in the life of believers is the lack of knowledge concerning their identity and their abilities. Adam yielded to sin because he did not know who he was and what he was capable of ...read more
