Be the first to comment!, Filed in Sermons and Media, Videos, by CGP.
Understanding the history of the people of God through the ages gives us perspective and helps us to discern the signs of the times. God wants us to remember the lessons of history and consider the lives of those individuals who remained faithful to God in perilous times.
History and prophecy inform us of God’s plan and give us vision so we can make those daily choices that will produce good fruit in our lives. Let us consider the history behind the Feast of Dedication that was celebrated by God’s people during the time of Jesus Christ’s ministry.

Faithful Marriage in a Faithless Age
Comments Off on Faithful Marriage in a Faithless Age, Filed in Videos, by CGP.The scriptures, though written millennia ago, offer us solid advice on how to face life’s challenges. Consider the wisdom that Paul offered Titus on the roles of men and women in marriage — advice that has stood the test of time. Or delve into Luke’s story of Jesus and what it means to be ‘submissive’ in our relationships.
Our world has largely forsaken the sound counsel that Paul gave to the Ephesians about husbands and wives willingly assuming and fulfilling their God-ordained roles in the family in accordance with God’s plan. But we can take up this challenge! More

Stressed — God’s Solution
Comments Off on Stressed — God’s Solution, Filed in Videos, by CGP.
When faced with bad news, disastrous events or condition, our fear of the uncertainties of our situation whether personal or societal, can create in us a stress response of anxiety, frustration, anger, or despair.
We may not be able to escape these situations that cause us ‘distress.’ But we have the free will to help us reframe how we view these stressors and focus on godly priorities.
Of course even medical science knows that unmitigated stress can produce hormonal changes that cause mental conditions like depression or physical conditions like high blood pressure. So to live the abundant life God intends for us, we must deal effectively with the stress in our life. More

Who Are You — What is Your Identity
Comments Off on Who Are You — What is Your Identity, Filed in Videos, by CGP.
Our world likes to label people in ways that cause division. Society would define you and assign you your identity according to its values.
But this is not the way God defines us! If we have come into a relationship with God we are no longer viewed according to our gender, our status in society, or our ethnic heritage. Rather we have been given a new identity as children of God. In God’s family we are all ‘one’ and not divided by our physical heritage or characteristics. For God places no value on our wealth, prowess, worldly wisdom or noble status. In fact, God makes it plain that he has chosen those the world rejects and despises. More

Avoiding the Traps of the Self-Righteous
Comments Off on Avoiding the Traps of the Self-Righteous, Filed in Videos, by CGP.Our age is not unlike that of Jesus’ time and he warned us to avoid the traps of the self-righteous. The ‘Wokies’ of today, like the Pharisees of Jesus’ day, reject God’s standards in favour of their own redefining of what is right or wrong. They have taken a ‘holier-than-thou’ self-righteous approach that has abandoned the faith and morality of scripture and is intolerant of anyone who does not accept their new orthodoxy.
And yet, the scripture provides examples of Pharisees who took a stand rejecting the majority view and embracing the truth that Jesus’ taught.
How would Jesus react to the Woke leaders of western society? More
