In my Zechariah 3 sermon this weekend, I quoted from the 1863 hymn Before the Throne of God Above. Here is a link to the sermon. Check out the video of the song in full:
Here’s the bit I quoted:
When Satan tempts me to despair
And tells me of the guilt within,
Upward I look and see Him there
Who made an end of all my sin.Because the sinless Savior died
My sinful soul is counted free.
For God the just is satisfied
To look on Him and pardon me.
Amen.
Boom! Plenty of it from Joshua Harris in this sermon clip. Online now? It’s worth watching.
Pretty challenging gear for digital natives!! It’s from a Covenant Life series on Proverbs.
Here’s the full length sermon: Self-Control in a Wired World | Proverbs 25:28
The week before is also worth checking out: The Sluggard | Proverbs 24:30-34
So tell me, what helps you to be self-controlled in a wired world?

If you could be in a scene from a movie… which movie? which scene?
The pop culture phenomenon of the week is Rebecca Black with her new hit song “Friday”. Black is being likened to teenage super-pop-star Justin Bieber. It went from 2000 hits to 25million hits just this week!! Perhaps Black is the new Bieber? Anyway, you decide:
Sometimes modern pop lyrics are hard to understand. Not in this track. They are simple, yet profound. Her observations on life are quite insightful.
It’s only March, but this song is well on its way to ‘song of the year’. Triple thumbs up ;)
This is a killer video. I’ve posted it twice before. Here it is again for new readers.
The old skool preacher sampled in this vid is Billy Graham. He has preached Jesus to a trillion people. I recently worked out that I became a Christian through someone who became a Christian under the ministry of someone who became a Christian from Billy’s preaching in 1959. Make sense? Pretty cool. I probably won’t get to meet Billy this side of eternity (though I have met his grandson) but I might hear him preaching Jesus in heaven.
