Grace Hour Broadcast

Good morning, listeners. I greet you well in the precious Name of Jesus Christ. For July, I will be sharing a four-part series under the theme "Christianity - A Distinct Identity". When people talk about Christianity having a distinct identity, they usually mean one of two things. Either how it stands completely apart from world religions, or how it completely rewrites a person's individual sense...

Good morning. We continue our series in John's gospel, and this morning we look at John 10:11-21, where Jesus made one of the most magnificent declarations in all of scripture: "I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd gives His life for the sheep." Reverend Mark Dawes is the Pastor of Grace Missionary Church in Kingston, Jamaica.

Good morning. Today, we continue our series in John's gospel, and this morning we look at John 10:10. It reads, "The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have  it  more abundantly". Reverend Mark Dawes is the Pastor of Grace Missionary Church in Kingston, Jamaica.

Good morning. We continue our series in John's gospel. In John chapter 9, verses 1-23, Jesus had healed a man born blind. He rejected the idea that sin caused the man's condition and declared that God's work would be displayed through this man, who could now see. The miracle sparked controversy. This morning, we will examine John 9:24-41. Reverend Mark Dawes is the Pastor of Grace Missionary Churc...

Good morning. Today, we continue our journey through John chapter 9. In the past two weeks, we have seen Jesus as He encountered a man blind from birth and healed him miraculously by sending him to wash in the Pool of Siloam. The man obeyed Jesus and returned seeing. This morning, we look at what happened next, John 9:13-23. Reverend Mark Dawes is the Pastor of Grace Missionary Church in Kingston,...

Good morning. Today, we continue our series of Meditations from the Gospel of John. We continue to explore the story of a man born blind, a beggar on the edge of society. The story is recorded for us in John 9, and today we focus on verses 5-12. Reverend Mark Dawes is the Pastor of Grace Missionary Church in Kingston, Jamaica.

Good morning. As we continue our series of Meditations from the Gospel of John today, we focus on John 9:1-5. This passage is about a man born blind who receives his sight. Reverend Mark Dawes is the Pastor of Grace Missionary Church in Kingston, Jamaica.

Good morning. Today, we continue our series of Meditations from the Gospel of John as we explore John 8:48-59. In this passage, Jesus, in response to attacks from the Jewish leaders, told them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM" (v.58). Reverend Mark Dawes is the Pastor of Grace Missionary Church in Kingston, Jamaica.

Good morning. As we continue the series of Meditations from the Gospel of John, we will place our focus on John 8:37-39. This is how it reads: “I know that you are Abraham’s descendants, but you seek to kill Me, because My word has no place in you. I speak what I have seen with My Father, and you do what you have seen with your father.” They answered and said to Him, “Abraham is our father.” Jesus...

Good morning. Today, we begin another series of Meditations from the Gospel of John. We will place our focus on John 8:31-36, where Jesus said, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” Reverend Mark Dawes is the Pastor of Grace Missionary Church in Kingston, Jamaica.

Today, we will look at a man who had extraordinary hope, faith and love. This story is about the Centurion, found in Matthew 8:5-10 and Luke 7:1-10. Both Gospels are written from different perspectives. This Centurion was a man of status and power and carried a great amount of authority. Reverend Dianne Lewis is the Pastor of Mike Town and Sweden Missionary Churches in Manchester, Jamaica.

Good morning. Today, we share the well-known parable of the Ten Virgins found in Matthew 25:1-13. If we were to look at this parable through our Western eyes, we would probably struggle, as we are not used to a wedding ceremony or reception stretching for more than one day. However, there are at least four takeaways to share from this passage. Reverend Dianne Lewis is the Pastor of Mike Town and S...

Good morning. Today, I want to speak to you on the topic " Jesus is Passing By ". This story comes from Mark 10:46-52, Luke 18:35-43 and Matthew 20:29-34. Jesus was leaving Jericho with a large crowd following Him. From this story, my question to you is, have you heard about Jesus? Like blind Bartimaeus, you can cry out to Jesus. Reverend Dianne Lewis is the Pastor of Mike Town and Sweden Missiona...

Good morning. As we continue to celebrate and acknowledge the Lenten period and what it means to us, I want to reflect on Romans 5:12-19. We reflect on what Christ has done for you and me. He went to the cross of Calvary. Paul, in his great theological treatise to the Romans, made a comparison between life and death. Paul stated that sin entered our existence through one man, Adam, and death came...

Good morning. Over the last couple of weeks, we have been briefly exploring the idea of Hope in Crises. We have said that hope is eagerly expecting something in the future, while crisis is our present reality, the situation we find ourselves in in the present moment. Do we have hope? Is there something better ahead of us? The scripture is clear that Jesus Christ is indeed hope. Today, we examine t...

Good morning. Today, we wish to speak about "The Crisis Within and The Hope of Victory". Does the believer, or Child of God, face crisis within? If so, how will this crisis be resolved? Is there hope for the struggler? Reverend Ronald Webster is the Pastor of Hopewell Missionary Church in Hopewell, Hanover, Jamaica.

Good morning. We began our study last week, exploring the subject of "Hope in Crises". Last week, we looked at the definition for Hope and how the Bible identifies the believers' hope as being "In Christ", not just in this world, but in and for the future. Today, we will explore "The Crisis in Creation" and the hope made available through Jesus Christ. Reverend Ronald Webster is the Pastor of Hope...

Good morning. Our study this month covers the idea of "Hope in the Times of Crises". In this study, we will consider a definition and a biblical position on Hope. We will also consider a definition of crisis; an exploration of crisis in creation, and a biblical response; an exploration of crisis in general and a believer's response. We will end the series with an exploration of crisis within and a...

Maranatha. We have come to the last sermon in our series on The Wonderful Anticipation: The Posture of the Church towards the Second Coming of Christ Jesus".The topics we have covered are: (1) The Believers' Waiting, (2) The Believers' Watch, and (3) The Believers' Walk.

I greet you in the name of Jesus Christ. It is with great joy and anticipation that we await the glorious return of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. As we journey in this series on the theme, Joyful Anticipation - The Posture of the Church Towards The Second Coming of Christ Jesus , so far we have covered The Believers' Waiting and The Believers' Watch. Today, we discuss The Believers' Walk, a...

Good morning again, everyone, and Maranatha. Today, we continue the series themed "Joyful Anticipation, The Posture of the Church towards the Second Coming of Christ Jesus". I intend to address this as follows: (1) The Believers' Waiting - A Look on Our Blessed Hope, (2) The Believers' Walk - Our Sanctification, (3) The Believers' Work - Our Acts of Service, and (4) The Believers' Watch - Our Stea...

It is a travesty to know that what the Lord has intended to serve as the believers' hope and comfort has become their despair and distress. Far too many believers do not read or study the teachings of the Second Advent of our Lord Jesus Christ. His Second Coming was always intended to bring joy and hope for Christians of all ages. Good morning, everyone, and Maranatha. This series is titled "Joyfu...

Good morning, listeners. Today, we conclude this short series exploring key themes in the Epistle of First John. In this episode, we examine the danger posed by love of the world. John, the Apostle of love, shared from a Pastoral heart the principles of maintaining fellowship with God and with fellow believers, through constant confession of sins to remain in The Light as he was in The Light. 1 Jo...

Good morning, listeners. We are continuing the exploration of key themes in the Epistle of First John. Today, we look at "Love", the very essence of God's nature, and a defining characteristic of a life transformed by Christ. Let us examine John's expectations on the subject of love among Believers, 1 John 3:16-23. Reverend Jacob McLean is the Pastor of Hampton Green Missionary Church in Kingston,...

Good morning, listeners. In this series, we are exploring the Epistle of First John. Last week, we introduced you to First John as a family letter written by a concerned Pastor, and mentioned two of the purposes for which this Epistle was written. Let us now explore how the believer can maintain fellowship and, as a result, experience the fullness of joy. Our reference is 1 John 1:5-10. Reverend J...
