[Sung Psalm: 85]I've titled the sermon, "the Holy Kiss" – because when you really understand what a "holy kiss" is – you realize that it embodies everything that Paul is talking about here.In 1 Thessalonians, Paul has been urging us to walk in faith, hope, and love, as we await the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.And we've seen that hope has to do,…

Ecclesiastes 9:11-10:20 Rev. Rodney Henderson

Father, indeed, it is a joy to be here in this, your house, to worship you. But we come with busy and distracted lives. Father, we come with hearts full of trouble, with minds anxious about what has happened and what is about to happen. And Father, so we ask as we come now in this time of worship to your word, that you would soften our hearts that …

As we read this famous text, our tendency is to rush into exceptions and qualifications. Didn’t the Hebrew midwives defy Pharaoh’s order? Weren’t they commended for disobeying the civil government and saving babies? When the Apostles were strictly charged not to teach in the name of Jesus, didn’t they defy the order, claiming that they must obey Go…

Rev. Rodney Henderson Ecclesiates 8:14-9:6

Tongue, but deceives his heart, this person’s religion is worthless. Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this, to visit the orphans and widows in their affliction and to keep oneself unstained from the world. Here is God’s word. Please be seated. It’s a pleasure to be here this morning. I see lots of familiar faces. My wi…
