There are great sermons from Bishops Jerry and Roy, as well as Revs Jack and Bryan.  Rev Jack's can be viewed on video RIGHT HERE.

There are always a lot of people who need your prayer, today is no different, please take a little time.  Start with Tricia, Shamu, Jim, Laurie and Lori and work out from there.

There is an epic week ahead, this Wednesday is Ash Wednesday in addition to its normal function as Hump Day, there will be more on that later.  You might think about your relationship with God.  Have you truly opened your heart and let the Holy Ghost in?  It can be a hard thing until you get used to the idea.

Have superb week!

Soldier’s Heart – 29 September 2023, Anno Domini

  F IGHT  the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses .    (1 Timothy 6:12)               This devotion is not directed to the American Soldier, or those military soldiers of other freedom-loving nations, for they need no accolades from me. I will direct my thoughts to the qualities intrinsic to the Christian soldier who courageously stands on truth even if he stands alone. He or she realizes that standing with God is always the right decision and not subject to debate or compromise.               In committing one’s life to Christ, one must understand this is not a lightly taken commission, but one that will make demands of self-sacrifice and self-denial much like the military soldier of the line. Such a commitment may not lead to the necessity of physically dying for the faith, but the commitment to do so if necessary is just as real as that of the line soldier. In a spiritual sense, eve

N OW  when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men [1]   (Greek  μάγοι , mágoi)  from the east to Jerusalem,  2   Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.  3   When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.  4   And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.  5   And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,  6   And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.  7   Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared.  8   And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child; an

Your sins shall find you out - a Devotion for 15 November 2023, Anno Domini

     H IS  own  iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins.   (Proverbs 5:22)               The prophet inquires of the Lord, ‘Why do the wicked prosper?’   1  Righteous art thou, O LORD, when I plead with thee: yet let me talk with thee of thy judgments: Wherefore doth the way of the wicked prosper? wherefore are all they happy that deal very treacherously?   (Jeremiah 12:1)  Solomon explains the wicked are held by the cords of their own sinful imaginations and sins.               The imaginations of men’s hearts are always more and more wicked. “  And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually .”  (Genesis 6:5)  The ‘self-will’ of man is that which many erroneously label as ‘free will’  - a term that does not appear in Holy Scripture. There is no freedom apart from Christ for those who have cast off their self-will and taken upon themselv
