Ashamed of Jesus?
This past Sunday I introduced the lyrics of an old hymn to our congregation, as part of a message from John 18.1-27 about Peter’s denial of Jesus. The point I was making is that while we are easily “ashamed” of Jesus, whether conscious of it or not, our relationship with Jesus – and with God…

I Will Praise You
A live performance by my friend Ginny Owens of a song from her (relatively) new album: I Have a Secret. This song just seems appropriate today, as some very close to me are experiencing serious life challenges. But in each case, regardless of the immediate outcomes, I know they will be praising God.

The Lamb is a Lion
Mark 11.12-18 & Luke 19.45-47 Weak from the journey, the long travelling days/ Hungry to worship, to join in the praise/ Shock mad with anger that burned on His face/ As He entered the wasteland of that barren place Chorus: And the Lamb is a Lion who’s roaring with rage/At the empty religion that’s filling…

There is a fountain filled with blood drawn from Emmanuel’s veins; and sinners plunged beneath that flood lose all their guilty stains. and sinners plunged beneath that flood lose all their guilty stains. The dying thief rejoiced to see that fountain in his day; and there may I, though vile as he, wash all my…
