Conflict in marriage stinks. We need to get to the bottom of it. What is the real reason for conflict in marriage? Bad communication, a stressful life, a spouse that sins to much?

A team is only going to function well if everyone plays the positions assigned to them. The same applies to marriage.

In this first sermon of our series on the Christian household, we look to answer the foundational question of "What is Marriage?". We find our answer in the very first pages of Scripture.

In this sermon we look at three survival truths f…

Ours is a culture of raging winds blowing against the walls of the church: calls have come to police and punish Christian language. This is the foundation of Christian loyalty to God, to retain His Words, speak freely, and pass them on to the next generation.由Evergreen Chapel

We can sometimes glance over this very common passage on the parable of the sower without questioning whether or not we might actually be one of the not so favourable soils. How well do you listen to the word of God when it speaks? Are you indifferent to it? Shallow in your response? Distracted by other things? Or do you receive and do the word of …

One of the central truths of the Christian faith is that mankind is sinful and fallen. It is only when we willing admit this and our own sin, that we truly see how wonderful the grace of God is. And when we see how wonderful the grace of God is, we will love him with all our hearts!由Evergreen Chapel

We live in a world surrounded by death, and feels like at times that death has won the final victory. That it will inevitably claim and destroy everything. And it feels like God either isn't doing anything, or doesn't care enough to do anything. But Jesus' miracle here shows us that Jesus is both caring in our suffering, and able to defeat our grea…

We hear in our culture the words "You are enough. You are worthy. The power is within you!". But is that true? Are we really enough? Are we truly worthy? Is the ability to change and have a blessed life something that comes from within? No. In fact, all that can stand in the way of a truly blessed life.…

There is one verse in the Bible that everyone is familiar with: "Judge not, lest you be judged". In this sermon, we are going to look at what Jesus means by that. Does he mean never discern right from wrong? Does he mean never call out sin? Or is he going after a different type of sinful judgmentalism and hypocritical judgment? Listen to find out!…

This is perhaps one of the most challenging things Jesus has ever said. What he says in these passages goes against much of what is natural to humanity. What do you mean "love my enemies?" What do you mean turn the other cheek? What do you mean "give to anyone who begs"? In this sermon we look at all of these commands and how they are not only comm…

The Sabbath is a topic of much discussion in the Christian church. We probably all know people who don't keep the Sabbath, and others who have added so much to the Sabbath that it misses the point of the Sabbath. In this sermon, we are going to look at what proper Sabbath keeping looks like according to Jesus.…

Jesus seeks out the chief of sinners in this passage, the tax collector, and in doing so, provides for us an example of the attitude and action we should have towards sinners and non-believers.

When you hear the word shame, what comes to mind? Shame is something that comes as a consequence of our sin, and many people, though they know they are forgiving of their guilt of sin, they still wrestle with the shame of it. Well in today's sermon, we will be looking at how God makes the unclean, clean. The exposed, covered. The unholy, holy. Jesu…

We encounter Jesus in many different ways throughout our lives. Through his Word, through prayer, or maybe through the first time we hear the gospel. When we encounter him, the question is put before us, "how are we going to respond?" Are we going to recognize him as who he is and follow him? Or are we going to continue on in our own ways? In this …

In this passage, Jesus begins his ministry. He identifies himself as the Anointed One of Isaiah 61, and embraces the mission of the Messiah for himself. But the people of Nazareth seem to have an issue with this. What is all this poor, oppressed, blind talk? Do you recognize that the Kingdom of God is for the humble?…

Jesus emerges from the waters of baptism and the Father cries out "You are my Beloved Son". But Adam was also the son of God, and how did that turn out?

In times of suffering, trials, and difficulties, the Lord is near to His people, binding up their broken hearts and providing them with everything they need to follow Him. For these reasons, and most of all for the giving of His own Son, the Lord is worthy to be praised and worshipped with our entire beings.…
