God is a Great King Psalm 95:3 calls us to praise the Lord. This Psalm is known as the "Venite" and proclaims His greatenss through Creation. Looking closely at verse 3 today, we discover that because God is a Great King, His Kingdom is infinite, just, and powerful. To our great comfort, because He is our king, it is also a kingdom of love and welcome.

Exodus 22:21-27
Psalm 1
1 Thessalonians 2:1-8
Matthew 22:34-46

St. Timothy Anglican Church - October 29, 2023

It's easy to be exhausted. We often feel like we don't have the energy we need to do the things God calls us to do, especially when the task is global. Psalm 1 gives us a picture in response. Walking a Godly path can be lonely and difficult, but we have an inexhaustable source of life. The path to greater obedience and effectiveness is not burnout - it's growth.

Malachi 3:6-12
Psalm 96

St. Timothy Anglican Church - October 22, 2023

Can a man rob God? Today, we are talking about money. The prophet Malachi asks if it's possible for people to steal from God. Unfortunately, this scripture has been used to pressure people. But when we look more closely at this (and Matthew 22), we find that what God really wants is our hearts. He cares about how we use our momney because He cares about us.

Emotional Eating – Ordinary Time, October 8, 2023

Isaiah 5:1-7
Psalm 80:7-19
Philippians 3:14-21
Matthew 21:33-44

St. Timothy Anglican Church - October 8, 2023

Emotional Eating All of us do it. We balance out the hard things with something nice. In Philippians, Paul talks about "enemies of the cross of Christ" whose god is their stomachs. They've taken emotional eating to its extreme, living a life of consumption in an effort to avoid the reality of death and the cross. Setting our minds on the life of Christ, we can avoid this error, and realiz that the end is not as dreadful as it might appear.

It’s Not Fair – Ordinary Time, September 24, 2023

Psalm 145:14-21
Philippians 1:21-27

St. Timothy Anglican Church - Sept 24, 2023

Is God fair? Today, we look at one of Jesus' parables, in which a vineyard owner hires day laborers to work. He promises to pay them whatever is "fair". As the laborers worked different amounts, the parable insists that we consider what "fair" looks like, and we learn something important about God, and something important about ourselves. Texts: Jonah 3:10-4:11, Philippians 1:21-27, Matthew 20:1-16
