The Bible teaches us to honor our fathers and mothers. One way to do this is to live in such a way that they receive honor from what we say and do. I'd like to honor my own mother, Jane Rose Mazzalongo, by sharing three important lessons she has taught me.

2,000 years ago there was a man called Jesus who had quite an impact on his people and now 2,000 years later people are usually uncomfortable when discussing Him. Why? Who is this person that's so long after He lived on this earth the mere mention of his name immediately creates tension.

When you read the Bible, what exactly are you reading? Are you really looking at something that has been created by God, inspired by God and given to men or are you merely reading something that was created by human thinking or invention.

One thing is sure in life and that is that sooner or later, we or someone we love, will have to face the problem of suffering. When we talk about this problem of suffering the key question to answer is this how do we respond to suffering. In this lesson we will explore the wonderful epistle of james as he talks to us about the problem of suffering.

When the court puts a man into prison it is providing the punishment that justice demands for his crimes.

When I say the word church what do you think of? A building with arches and a cross on it? Perhaps a place where you can go to sit, pray and think? When Jesus said, I will build my church, what did He mean did? In this lesson, we're going to try to find out exactly that.

This sermon explores how God's plan, revealed in the Bible, is superior to anything humans can imagine.
