TruthTalks Sermon: True Friends

How do you define a true friend?

In last weeks post, Dr Christopher Peppler wrote on this topic and asked us to consider how we characterise true friendship. The following week, he preached a sermon on this topic, expanding on the idea and including what Christ says about friendship and also what our relationship with Him should look like.

TruthTalks on Standing Together around Jesus

TruthTalks: Standing Together around Jesus

TruthTalks audio

Last week Dr Christopher Peppler published a post about five “ill winds” blowing around and through churches and believers in recent times.

If you read it and thought “Calvanism? what is that again?” and then perhaps even moused-over to see the definition and yet still felt un-enlightened (as I did) then this TruthTalk is for you.

Do subscribe if you would like your podcatcher to notify you when a new TruthTalk is published, otherwise, as always, feel free to make comments and suggestions.

Here is the original post and the TruthTalk can be heard by clicking on the play button below. If you enjoy it, why not listen to another HERE.

 

Until next time 🙂 Karen (TITW Admin)

Today’s post is a TruthTalk sermon called ‘The Joy of our Salvation’, which Dr. Christopher Peppler preached at Lonehill Village Church on Christmas day. In this TruthTalk we hear about what is described as ‘a silver river of joy running through the bible’  called JOY.

This is a wonderful message for those of us who need to remember what it is to be joyful and, more importantly, WHY. 1 Peter 1 is the main reference for this happy and hopeful sermon, so give it a listen now.

Dad (Dr Christopher Peppler) and I will be taking a tiny bit of time off and there won’t be any posts or podcasts until the 9th of January 2018.

Until then, have a wonderful, joyful festive season.

For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. – Isaiah 9

About Me

My name is Christopher Peppler and I was born in Cape Town, South Africa in 1947. While working in the financial sector I achieved a number of business qualifications from the Institute of Bankers, Damelin Management School, and The University of the Witwatersrand Business School. After over 20 years as a banker, I followed God’s calling and joined the ministry full time. After becoming a pastor of what is now a quite considerable church, I  earned an undergraduate theological qualification from the Baptist Theological College of Southern Africa and post-graduate degrees from two United States institutions. I was also awarded the Doctor of Theology in Systematic Theology from the University of Zululand in 2000.

Four years before that I established the South African Theological Seminary (SATS), which today is represented in over 70 countries and has more than 2 500 active students enrolled with it. I presently play an role supervising Masters and Doctoral students.

I am a passionate champion of the Christocentric or Christ-centred Principle, an approach to biblical interpretation and theological construction that emphasises the centrality of Jesus

I have been happily married to Patricia since the age of 20, have two children, Lance and Karen, a daughter-in-law Tracey, and granddaughters Jessica and Kirsten. I have now retired from both church and seminary leadership and devote my time to writing, discipling, and the classical guitar.
