    There’s nothing wrong with being #2 as long Jesus is #1.

    Contributed by Philip Gill on Jan 11, 2003
    based on 41 ratings
     | 8,043 views

    To make the affirmation "I am Baptised" is to bring the reality of our baptism into the present making us vitally aware that we are Children of God, disciples of Christ and members of the Church.

    Sermon for the Baptism of Our Lord I am Baptised! Apparently Martin Luther, the great 16th figure of the reformation used to take great comfort from these words. When it seemed to him that the whole church had left the precepts of the Gospel, when he was under scrutiny from Church officials as to ...read more

    It is better to be cleansed from the roots of evil than to be lead from the different forms of prisons that they build around us.

    On the second Sunday of Advent, Mark 1.1-8 calls our attention to the person of John the Baptist. John is a figure of confrontation. This confrontation is interior in nature.

     | 70,891 views

    This is a time of the year for cliches and spiritual sappy-talk. John the Baptist offers a fresh perspective.

    Mark 1:1-8 WHAT WOULD JOHN THE BAPTIST SAY TO YOU? Sometimes, when you hear the same thing all the time, it starts to become less and less meaningful.
