Easter Sermon: The journey to Emmaus

Introduction

The death of Jesus Christ actually shattered the hopes and dreams of his disciples. Though the resurrection had already taken place they were so affected by what happened three days ago they felt helpless, frustrated, disappointed, discouraged and left behind. It is at a time like this that Jesus met two of them on their way to Emmaus.

Swartz’s unmistakable message to Christian leaders

Introduction

There are two things in this world that young people are most attracted to. Sex and technology. Both are good but dangerous if handled unwisely. Aaron Swartz was fascinated by the latter. Unfortunately his fascinations didn’t have limits.

Now Please take note that I don’t intend to judge Aaron in writing this article.I rather want to emphasize the fact that there are many brilliant minded people like Swartz who need to be taught to use their skills wisely, which is something only the church is capable of doing. A good point to start with would be to identify and create an awareness of the 3 major mistakes Swartz made.

Free worship backgrounds and video loops

In August 2012 when we bought our first multimedia projector we had no doubt that motion backgrounds and video loops will add a lot of color to our worship services. Therefore as usual we searched the web which returned many free resources but they were of very poor quality. The official web site of EasyWorship has a huge collection of high quality items at very affordable rates but didn’t want to buy them because we don’t make payments online unless it’s really necessary.

New year sermon 2013: The gifts of the wise men

Introduction

The arrival of the wise men wasn’t a part of the story of Jesus’ birth at all. They actually came in a time when the miracle of Jesus’ birth had long since worn off – while Mary and Joseph were caught in the busyness of life and parenting. In a time like this the gifts once again reminded them of three important truths God had told them in the beginning. Today even as the Christmas season is far behind us and we are about to get caught in the busyness of the new year God wants to remind us of those three truths.

Text: Matthew 2:1-12
