Two Broken Things

In Luke 18:1-14 Jesus told two little parables that at first sight don’t really seem to go together.  What’s the connection between the two?  Are they about prayer or faith or both?  Join James as he explores these two intriguing parables and discovers a broken record and a broken heart…

There was a certain rich man…

Despite what we might be like on the outside – rich or poor – God knows our hearts.  In this message from Luke 16:19-31, Florence looks at Jesus’ story of the rich man and Lazarus.  This is not so much a story of riches versus poverty but of responsibility and accountability.

Forgiveness is something we all find difficult, and yet followers of Jesus who have received God’s forgiveness need to extend it to others.

The Parable of the sower

Digging Deep

The first in a series through the parables of Jesus. The parable of the wise and foolish builders Luke 6:46-49. Jesus uses this parable to close His Sermon on the Mount with a powerful statement about the foundations we build our lives upon. Are we building on weak foundations that will fail us when hard times come our way, or are we building on the eternal promises of God?
