Why would a God who loves us allow disasters to happen? (i.e. human trafficking, sexual abuse, war, etc.)? One of the primary issues that have caused people to leave the faith or simply not come to faith. Natural Evil Things happen to us against our will and well-being. Fires, accidents, disease, earthquakes,…

Unusual Characters I don’t know about you, but when I look at people, I don’t see so many that are walking talking clones or robots. Specially now, when we have had a year of social hibernation which has mostly helped us solidify some of our personal habits and ways of looking at things. Everyone is…

To those living a doomed life marked by gloom, God's presence offers hope for a lasting legacy.

We come to the end, we have looked at: The destruction of Jerusalem and how within that there is the fulfillment of the abomination of desolation, great tribulation, the sign of this being the vindication of Jesus, how all of these things took place within the lifespan of the disciples as Jesus said…

It means living out the gift of grace by the Spirit of Christ and finding out what it means to not be the “walking dead” but to be those who walk with the Spirit of Christ, which is also called the Spirit…

Last week we saw the first humans born naturally, Cain and Abel, and the first murder, which is Cain’s legacy. Genesis was given to show us the past, the beginning, and to show us the God who created it all. History is His story. Chapter 4 ended with tragedy, but also with a glimmer of hope for mankind’s…

Building a People of God With Unusual Characters: Abram-Abraham Abraham is the second unusual character I am teaching about from the Biblical records of who God uses to build his people.

Turn to and read Mark 1:21-39 . Pray. What does your “typical” day look like? Mark chapter 1, as we began to look at last week, really “sets the stage” for Christ’s ministry. From Mark chapter 1, we are able to get a pretty good idea of how busy Christ truly was during His ministry on the earth. And…

The question posed “does life matter” is a very important one for each of us to consider. Before we started Genesis I was asked by some… Is an old book like that really nessesary to teach from? Is it even pertinent to today? Why not preach something practical for our day and the issues we are seeing…

Well, last week we left off with Noah and the flood, and during the past week I think God has been reminding us with all the rain we’ve been having. I’m going to back up just a bit as we saw Noah enter the ark last week. We remember that from Adam and Eve we had their sons Cain and Abel. Cain kills Abel…

So far in our journey, in our series Casket Empty - we’ve been seeing how our God, the Creator God, the LORD God, who is named Yahweh Elohim - is a God who pursues man despite the fumblings, errors, and total disobedience.

Intro: Tonight we are continuing or End of Days sermon series. Through the series my hope is that not only will you grow or perhaps be reminded of the end times events in the Bible but will be encouraged that though we are living in the last days and the world around us seems to be chaotic and crazy…

Encountering the God who sends his people! Last Sunday I argued that our world was a dark, suffering, painful place. Yes, at times it is beautiful… and it contains promises of glory. A beach scene, mountain lakes and crystal clear rivers; a young couple vowing to love, honour and obey each other as long…
