So, did you vote last week? Probably not, since we were told that less than half those who were eligible to vote actually cast a ballot. And if you fall in that category it is shameful and inexcusable. People say “But Denn you don’t understand, I didn’t know the issues or candidates.” Well, whose fault…
The Result of our behaviour.
Over the past four weeks I’ve been speaking about what Jesus said about our behaviour, and if you were looking for a specific list of what we can do and can’t do you’ve been disappointed. Jesus didn’t provide a detailed list but instead insisted that our relationship with God would lead to proper behaviour. And…
Going Up?
Faster than the speed of sound! This week, Austrian extreme athlete, Felix Baumgartner, became the first human to break the sound barrier. Well, the first human to break the sound barrier without an airplane. “Fearless Felix” jumped from a capsule that more than 38 kilometers above the earth and before deploying his parachute he reached…
Warnings and Early Warnings
Video from (Peggy’s Cove) If you aren’t familiar with the video shot, then I’m not sure what to say. I took that a month ago while we were on our annual pilgrimage to Peggy’s cove, and while I preparing to take some of these phone photos I noticed the lady down on the rocks. If…
Happy Thanksgiving
So, how was your Thanksgiving? We had a full house this year. My folks were here from Saint John, our daughter and her family we up from Shelburne, and we had some time with our son and his girlfriend in the Valley on Saturday. We did the traditional feast on Monday and will eat leftovers…
Follow Me
What Jesus Said about Our Behaviour: Follow Me Last month I received an email from a man who is planning on carrying a cross across Nova Scotia. He didn’t tell me how big the cross was going to be but I’m assuming that it isn’t going to be a small cross. And to tell the…
It’s Just a Matter of Time
The Toronto District School Board insists that it’s not endorsing polygamy. In a recent promotion to help prevent “gender-based violence”, the school board’s website has a poster with the message “Love has no gender” in white capital letters surrounded by various hearts containing stick figure people. In one of the hearts, there is an image…
What Jesus Said about our Behaviour Intro
If you have been keeping track this is the fourth series that we have taught this year based on “What Jesus said about. . .” In April we spoke about “What Jesus said About Money” and we focused on Jesus’ words concerning how we make and how we spend our money. In May and June…
The Church, The Body of Christ
The Church. The Church. When I say church, what do you think of? A little white clapboard building with a steeple and a bell, or perhaps the Crystal Cathedral in California. Maybe you don’t think of a building instead you think of people, perhaps your friends and fellow believers at Cornerstone come to mind, if…
Who Cares?
The question apparently isn’t “was he or wasn’t he?”. . . the question is “Who cares?” A couple of weeks ago it was reported that a fragment of manuscript had been discovered with the words “Jesus said to them, ‘my wife. . .’”. Well, that set the cat amongst the pigeons, so to speak. The…
