The theme of this passage is that when we walk according to ways of God, we can expect that things will go well for us. God has designed the world to work in a particular way, and flourishing comes when we stick to that. In this sermon we explore some biblical exhortations and the subsequent blessings that come from obedience to them. 

This is the first sermon of a new series in the book of Proverbs. In it, we look at the purpose, necessity, and foundation of the book of Proverbs, and why everyone should set their hearts on the pursuit of godly wisdom. 

In this sermon we look at one of the more difficult parables of Jesus. Jesus explains the activity of a dishonest manager, who, to everyone's surprise, is commended in the end. No why would Jesus do that? What is Jesus trying to teach us about money and stewardship? 

We look at three familiar parables in this sermon. The lost sheep, the lost coin, and the lost son. Each parable reveals to us the attitude of God towards sinners that we must make sure we are modelling as his chosen people. 

Crucifying the flesh is not a phrase our world likes. In fact, rather than crucifying the flesh, the call of the world is to indulge the flesh. But Christ has called us out of that into something new. Join us as we study this passage

In this passage, Jesus doesn't hide what the costs of following him are. He requires your full allegiance and first place on your priority, and if he can't have that, then you can't have him. Too many people have bought into an "easy believeism" that is actually keeping them out of the kingdom of God. May the Lord gives us eyes to see and ears to hear! 

In this passage Jesus gives the familiar parable of the Mustard Seed. It is a parable that is meant to give us hope. God's kingdom will prevail. Your labour is not in vain. The gospel has power to save and accomplish it's purpose. So keep pressing on! 

Jesus is invited to a dinner party at a Pharisees house, and he has some sobering words to offer up to them in the form of two parables. He is going to challenge them, and us, on how we view ourselves, how we view others, and how we view God's call on our life. 

One question that has been hovering over the ministry of Jesus is whether or not the Jews would recognize him as their Messiah and submit to him. Will they bow to their king? And a second question, is that if they do not, well then what will God do to them? Will this be the final straw for this rebellious people? Is there any hope for them after their rejection of Christ? 

In this passage, Jesus gives a strong warning about many of the ways people think are the road to salvation, when in reality, they have deceived themselves. There is only one way to salvation, and that is through the narrow door of Jesus Christ. Have you found the true way of salvation? Or have you been deceived?
