    God spoke to the people in exile through Isaiah. In the midst of their darkness, they heard the voice of grace, the voice of hope and the voice of truth.

    The book of Isaiah is a remarkably long book, divided into two parts. • The first 39 chapters talk about condemnation, God’s judgement for the sin of Israel. The people had abandoned God. • The last 27 chapters talk about redemption, God’s forgiveness for the people, and the deliverance by a ...read more

    What Is The Gospel

    The gospel is the message, the good news, that God’s promise of salvation has been accomplished. It’s the message that those who have been in exile from God’s presence are to be brought back. It’s the message that for those who believe in Jesus Christ, wh

So the question I want to ask today is this: what do you understand by that word Gospel? Is it just the life of Jesus, like a potted history? Or is it ...read more

    Isaiah managed to get through with his Message of Hope. And so did the Messengers of Hope at the barn: the Angels, the Shepherds and the Wise Men. Today we receive the Message of Hope and learn how to become Messengers ourselves.
