    Solomon’s foolishness is repeated by his son who refuses to listen to the wise counsel of his advisers and instead turns to his younger peers who agree with him.

    By Rev Roy Hamer About thirty years ago Jo and I were involved in Youth Adventure camping. In fact you could say it’s how we met. You see we had mutual friends who where rock climbers and Jo and I often went climbing with them. Jo was a great climber: nimble flexible and brave. On the other hand ...read more

    All leaders are called to constantly choose between the Power and Authority Model and the Servant Model of Leadership. What do we generally choose and why do we choose the obvious?

    Servant Leadership – Part II – A conscious choice that we make There was this couple, who lived very close to the Church. They could just step into the church from their home, pretty much like Abrahams when they attend our church. One Sunday the wife, decided that she will save time, in cooking, ...read more

    The Bible tells us to seek advice. But not all advice is good advice. It pays to pay attention to whom you pay attention to. But how do I know the difference between good advice and bad?

    OPEN: In my files I have the following pieces of advice that you may want to consider: · Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them. · Never buy a car you can't push. · When everything's coming your way, you're probably in the wrong lane. · Find out what you don't do ...read more

    We seem to praise praise and worship worship and forget about a Holy God. This is a study about how JEROBOAM made worship more convenient. He compromised God's truth for popularity and acceptance. BEWARE!

    We have opportunities to be influencers for God or against him. Rehoboam chose his own way over God's and missed out on being a hero to the people of Israel.

    Part 2 of the Sermon Series, "God of Elisha."

    One lesson Israel learned from God is that when they honor God, God honors them. God takes care of them. God works with them and for them. Nevertheless, if they dishonor God, God judges them. God deals with Israel in the context of covenant faithfulness. That is what we learn in this story of two ...read more

    Jeroboam listened to his own voice and the voices of men, ignoring the voice of God, and led Israel into grievous sin.

    We saw last week King Rehoboam (Solomon’s son) listening to the advice of his peers, motivated by his own desires, caused the split of the Kingdom. • This turn of events fulfilled the Word of God given to Solomon and Jeroboam. • We see the sovereignty of God and the certainty of His Word.

    We don't mind going to the cross as long as we can take a number of comfortable and convenient things along with us. Jesus does not call us to comfort. He calls us to die.

    Rehoboam would be the last King to sit under a 'united tribes of Israel'. What brought about this division?

    Rehoboam was almost a hero. He stood at the threshold of greatness but chose poorly and destroyed everything his father and grandfather had built. Through his example we can perhaps learn to better follow the ways of Jesus.
