    We as a church are bellying up to the buffet of the world much more often than we feed ourselves on the healthy and holy food of God’s word.

    Escaping the Buffet Mentality “Americans are getting fatter” - - “and the south is leading the way.’ So says World News Digest by the Canadian press. What is the problem why are we as Americans getting fatter or having an excess of body fat. Some say it is genetics, choice, targeted ...read more

    This is about Jesus’ baptism, and what it shows for us: an attitude of humility and submission.

    A look at the greatness of John and his baptism of Jesus

    JOHN THE BAPTIZER 1. Matthew tells us nothing about the childhood of Jesus. Instead, he offers us chapter 3 as a transition between Jesus as a young child (Matthew 2) and the adult Jesus being tempted in the wilderness (Matthew 4). 2.

    A Tale Of The Unexpected !

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Feb 10, 2006
    based on 5 ratings
     | 3,680 views

    John was shocked when the sinless Jesus asked to be baptised. Jesus identifies with us in his baptism. We identify with him when we are baptised and we too can receive God’s Spirit! Truly this is a tale of the unexpected.

    The Baptism of Jesus must surely qualify as a ‘Tale of the Unexpected’! Have you ever been somewhere or seen something which was the exact opposite of what you were expecting? Have you ever been waiting expectantly for an event, only for the event itself to come as a total surprise or even a big ...read more
