You’ve Sent Mail!

Apparently, it was new technology for her and she was really struggling. I just happened to be there for her conversation with the support staff as she went over the process step by step. She wanted to make sure that she had done everything right and that the recipient would get her message. I would…

Who is this Man? The Basics

Who is this Man?  Matthew 16:13-20 If you were to ask the average person “Who is Jesus?”  I am sure that you would get a bunch of different answers.  Some would say that he was the Son of God; other’s might say that he was a prophet or a religious leader.  Some might even say…

May the Force Be With Us

There are the same number of Jedi Knights as there are Wesleyans!  Well, that’s not entirely true, there are the same number of Jedi across Canada as there are Wesleyans in Atlantic Canada.  But still. . .    They are in decline and while some are quick to offer up reasons, nobody is offering up solutions. …

Mother’s Days for Elizabeth

It is a familiar story and one that fits with Mother’s Day.  A woman who wasn’t supposed to be a mother becomes a mother.   It is one of the most familiar stories in the Bible but a story that is over shadowed by another story and gets lost.  We are all familiar with the first…

Who am I?

It just took two digits and all of a sudden I wasn't who I thought I was. The other day I was topping up my “Mac Pass” and the “customer service” rep informed me that either my pass didn't belong to me or I wasn't who I said I was. Well I knew the pass…

The Blessing of Faithfulness

Well here we are in week four of Money Month.  If you are visiting or new to Cornerstone this is an annual event.  A number of years ago I decided that instead of preaching on money when there was a need in the church that I would spend a month each year to teach the…

A Little Good News, Please.

I need to say from the beginning that I feel that the bombing in Boston last week was a tragedy.  But, did I have to hear about it every time I turned on the television or looked at a newspaper?  It is because of the news coverage of events like this that people feel the…
