I really enjoyed being part of Northern Beaches Men’s Conference on Tuesday night. I spoke on Isaiah 58 a talk entitled “Holy Eyes”. It was basically about seeing the world the way that God sees the world and responding with comfort, care and compassion. The talk wasn’t as tight as I’d like, but from conversations people found it helpful nonetheless. Intro vid:

We also heard from MISFIT AID. Click here to learn about their great work.

Here is the outline from my sermon:

Kony + Slacktivism
1) Fasting that displeases God (Isaiah 58:1-5)
2) Fasting that pleases God (Isaiah 58:6-12)
3) The call for a changed heart, eyes & life (Isaiah 58:13-14)
5 things to know in order to cultivate an attitude of care, comfort & compassion:
i) know what’s going on
ii) know the dangers of wealth
iii) know that it’s more than money
iv) know who you are ignoring
v) know the good news of Jesus

In John 20 when Jesus appears to his disciples, for some reason, Thomas wasn’t there. When they tell Thomas that they’ve seen Jesus alive, he responds by demanding proof. Jesus gives it to him!

Have a listen to my sermon on John 20:24-31 to find out how Thomas responded. Likewise, consider how you ought to respond 2000 years later.

Dave Miers Sermon – Responding to the Evidence

We’ve recently run two men’s conference events at St Faith’s. It was encouraging to gather together with a bunch of men from across our different congregations. Ben Molyneux spoke on Men and Marriage in week 1; I spoke on Men Fighting Sin in week 2.

The basic structure of my talk came from Jonathan Dodson’s forthcoming book, Gospel-Centered Discipleship. As well as reflecting on a number of Bible passages, I used a number of John Owen quotes as a sparring partner in the challenge to fight against sin.

I just stumbled upon this video of a sermon I gave from More Mission last year at UTS. I haven’t watched it, so can’t verify the quality of the video or the preaching!
