Sermon # 21 - There Is Hope Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on May 21, 2025

Job was struck with tragedy and loss like no one could ever imagine. Yet, Job could praise God and his faith in God was unshakeable. Through all the storms and trials that come our way, let’s hold on because Jesus our Redeemer lives and He is our protector, refuge and fortress.

And that man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God and turned aside from evil.” (AFV) The testimony about Job The bible when describing about this man called Job, introduces him as one who was blameless, ...read more

The Call Of Samuel And The Fall Of Eli Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Jan 20, 2003

The Priesthood has failed so God raises up a prophet to bring his word to his people. God uses the circumstances of Hannah to bring about his plan.

I doubt that Samuel realised just what was in store for him as he began his service of God in the Temple with Eli. No doubt it began as a fairly simple routine of lessons and chores with plenty of time for games. As a young child he would have been looked after by the many people who worked and ...read more
