  • Easter Series #3, by William Stewart-Lee
    Mar 19 2026

    Last week Pastor William spoke about the last supper and Jesus washing the feet of his disciples. This week we look at what happened afterwards as Jesus is arrested and he's questioned by the high priest. We're going to look at three figures involved in those events. John Mark, who was a follower of Jesus, Caiaphas, who was the Jewish high priest, and Jesus himself. We're going to focus on their clothing. We're going to look at clothing for those three people, each of them wore garments that carried great symbolic significance.

  • Easter Series #2, by William Stewart-Lee
    Mar 19 2026

    We're in our Easter preaching series and this week Pastor William felt very strongly from the Lord that I was meant to talk on the footwashing where Jesus washed his disciples feet. So we're diverting into the Gospel of John this morning which records that story. In first century Judea there were established customs when it came to hospitality. Host would normally provide uh three things: water for foot washing, a kiss, and oil to be to anoint the heads of your guests.

  • Easter Series #1, by William Stuart-Lee
    Mar 19 2026

    In this sermon Pastor William speaks on passing judgement on people. Do not judge or you too will be judged. At the time of Jesus, it was the Pharisees who were known as the masters of judging others. They had exalted themselves in the land as moral judges, condemning those who could not keep up with their standards and having very little mercy for those who fell short. And no doubt Jesus had them in mind when he gave this teaching to his disciples. Yet we all at times have made personal moral judgments against others. We all judge. We can have our own internal court system where we are the judge and the jury and the executioner. And we render our verdicts against others so often in seconds with little right of reply. And we tolerate our judgments against others rather than root them out through repentance. We judge often. In fact, it's very, very hard for us not to judge. It's almost like we are wired to judge. Why are we as humans so quick to morally condemn others despite being so flawed ourselves?

  • Psalm 63, by Jack Haye
    Feb 19 2026

    Our speaker today is Jack Haye President of Patrick Henry College. He speaks on quite a few Psalms and how over the past few years and months he's thought a lot about them. The big one in this talk is Psalm 63. How he finds a lot of earthiness in them. How they represent the highs and lows that real people experience and people who come before the Lord with praise and adoration, but also with confusion and questions and sometimes even complaints. But even the ones where the psalmist starts out that way, you find somewhere toward the bottom, it normally begins to unwind a bit and them turning toward God's sovereignty. And as the writer's heart and mind are tuned more to God's power and goodness rather than the urgency of their own situation.

  • Being Filled With The Spirit, by William Stuart-Lee
    Feb 12 2026

    In this sermon Pastor William is talking about being filled with the spirit. It's a very simple talk but which he hopes has practical application. In Ephesians 5 15-20 in which Paul is advising the believers in Ephesus to be careful how they live as we heard not as unwise but as wise making the most of every opportunity for the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish but understand what the Lord's will is. Do not get drunk on wine which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the spirit. Now, sometimes as Christians, we can wrestle over that question. "What is God's will for my life?" Well, here we have an amazing clear statement of the Lord's will for our lives. The Lord's will is for each one of us to be filled with the spirit of God. That is God's will for me. That is God's will for you.

  • Invitation and Promise, by William Stuart-Lee
    Feb 5 2026

    In this sermon we're looking at Psalm 91. It's a beautiful psalm. It's a very well-known psalm. Some of you will say it's your favorite psalm. And we don't really know who wrote it. There's conjecture over maybe Moses wrote it, but we don't really know who wrote this psalm. But it is a timeless poem of protection and safety and deliverance. And it contains two things invitation and promise. If you want to learn more about a relationship with Jesus we recommend a book titled "Mere Christianity" by C.S.

  • Opening the Door to Jesus, by William Stuart-Lee
    Dec 26 2025

    In this sermon Pastor William speaks on why you should open the door to Jesus when he comes knocking. Many times we are so busy with our own lives we don't think we need to open for him, but when we don't open for him we're missing out on the most profound encounters. He will make his home with any of those that open their door to him.

  • Are You Ready to Shine? by William Stuart-Lee
    Dec 19 2025

    In this sermon Pastor William speaks on how you can get closer to shining in God's light. How we must maintain humility and not give in to pride in order to stay in that light. The more we give our shine back to Jesus, the more of his glory and his presence will rest upon us. How especially during advent we must maintain these things to stay in the light of the Lord.
