The Gift of Tears – Part 1

The beautiful story in Luke 7 introduces us to a woman with a doubtful reputation who came into a setting where Jesus was with Simon, the Pharisee, quite unexpectedly, causing huge embarrassment to Simon the host. Luke says she stood at his feet weeping and began to bath his feet with her tears and to […]

Running From God

If you went to Sunday School as a child, I’m fairly sure you would remember the story of a prophet named Jonah and the big fish. It’s a remarkable story from the Old Testament about a man of God who fell overboard and was swallowed by a fish, possibly a whale. Now, some people rubbish […]

Living with Guilt – Part 2

Talking again today about guilt and the way of denial. This approach to guilt denies the existence of God (or at least the God of the Bible). And that gets rid of a lot of those pesky guilt-producing rules in the Bible. But does this really work? What happens when you decide to live by your […]

Feeling Blue

Everyday thousands of people will turn to alcohol and drugs, soap operas, gambling and shopping as a means to escape from the everyday problems they face in life. It would seem that we are not well adapted to cope with the emotional pain inherent in life’s problems. But it is interesting to note that the […]

Helping the Lonely – Part 2

Yesterday, if you were with me, I introduced the topic of loneliness. Dr Paul Tournier, a medical doctor and Christian counsellor said once that loneliness “is the most devastating problem of the age”. Yesterday morning I also said that some people can’t understand how you can be lonely. After all, if you have plenty of […]

Helping the Lonely – Part 1

One of the saddest stories I have read involves a lady who lived in a town in Massachusetts. She lived alone, in the same house for 40 years, yet none of the neighbours really knew her. One day in October 1993, the Police broke down the door to get inside, to find her dead on […]

What Keeps You Awake at Night – Part 3

And if we take God’s promises seriously, we have absolutely nothing to fear. It’s like the most common command in Scripture. You know what the most common command is? Do not be afraid. For those of you facing discouragement or heartache, God says, “I will give strength when you need it.” For those  facing sickness […]

Does Anyone Care

Sydney is certainly a vibrant and live city. It’s loved by many people around the world, and a hot tourist spot. I’ve met many people from other countries who seem in awe of we Australians, lucky to have such a wonderful city. While there are millions of people living here, there are some who live […]

Funerals

In my 42 years of ministry with The Salvation Army, I have conducted many funerals. All kinds in many different formats in many places. It has been a distinct privilege to meet people at their deepest need, during a time of sadness and grief. To meet people in their home and share with them in […]

Less Means More

I like the story of a business man who wanted to go on a safari to Africa. It was something he wanted to do, but he was in a hurry and wanted to get going. When he arrived he hired 2 African tribesmen to carry all his belongings. On the first day they got up […]

A Struggle for Patience – Part 2

They didn’t even have smart phones back then. Fast communication back then was sending a message by carrier dove, by horseback, or by way of a sprinter. The world gets just a little faster every day, and people forget what it was like to wait in line. In fact, you may notice that when people […]
