    Bringing food to a hungry world.

    Faith is renewed day by day in our experience of the storms of life.

    THE STORMS OF LIFE. Matthew 14:22-33. 1. The storms of life. Sometimes the storms of life seem to overtake us, even when we are being obedient.

    We taste and see the goodness of the LORD when the words of the LORD have their rightful place in our lives.

    O MAGNIFY THE LORD WITH ME. Psalm 34:1-8. David was ‘on the run’ from king Saul. Mistakenly thinking that he might find refuge with the Philistines, he only escaped from their clutches by feigning madness (1 Samuel 21:10-15). Then he hid in a cave. Knowing that David was in this place, his ...read more

  • The Resurrection Life

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Dec 26, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,410 views

    The key to Christian living is found in our union with Christ, both in His death and in His resurrection.

    THE RESURRECTION LIFE. Romans 6:1-14. It is decidedly unpleasant when anybody is subjected to false accusations and malicious rumours. Yet this was the experience of Jesus in Holy Week, and is the common lot of all those who uphold the mystery of holiness. The Apostle Paul was aware that ...read more

    'Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin' (Hebrews 12:4).

    THE WAR AGAINST SIN. Matthew 15:10-20. The scribes and Pharisees brought an accusation to Jesus concerning His disciples (Matthew 15:2).

  • The Lord Our Shield

    based on 6 ratings
     | 4,672 views

    Abraham chose to believe God rather than his own doubts and fears.

    THE LORD OUR SHIELD. Genesis 15:1-6. After the battle of the kings, Abram no doubt would have had a rush of emotion. First of all, perhaps, elation: look what God has enabled me to do with a small household army (Genesis 14:14-16). Secondly, a sudden realisation: I’ve just picked a fight with ...read more

  • His Plans Not Our Plans

    based on 7 ratings
     | 15,864 views

    The Temple of the LORD and the dynasty of David.

    HIS PLANS, NOT OUR PLANS. 2 Samuel 7:1-16. (The title of this Sermon is based upon Isaiah 55:8-9.) There are three main thrusts in our reading in 2 Samuel today: 1. There is a subtle difference between a good idea and God’s will (2 Samuel 7:1-4); 2. God’s presence cannot be contained in a ...read more

  • Famous Last Words

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 1, 2015
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,112 views

    It is the everlasting covenant that gives David the courage to hope. Man may fail, but God will not. The covenant is set in place by God, and guaranteed by God.

    FAMOUS LAST WORDS. 2 Samuel 23:1-7. The Bible sometimes permits us to listen in on the death-bed words of a dying saint. We hear Jacob blessing his sons. We hear Moses blessing the twelve tribes. We are interested also to hear the seven last sayings of Jesus from the Cross. In the passage ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,822 views

    A metaphor from God's dealings in Creation to describe God's dealings with His Word.

    THE WORD GOES FORTH. Isaiah 55:10-13. I was in India, alone in my room, with the door shut. I read Isaiah 55:10-11. There God was saying, “My Word shall not return to me void, but shall accomplish that which I please, and prosper in the thing for which I sent it.” What an encouragement, I ...read more

  • "All In A Day’s Work”

    Contributed by David Roth on Oct 5, 2020
     | 4,384 views

    In a parable of vineyard workers, Christ shows that all who receive from Him, and all that is received from Him, is totally gift. It is not earned. As Christians we rejoice and are thankful that we are in His vineyard, and that His continues to call others to His vineyard to labor with us.

    Matthew 20:1-16 J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. (Ps. 19:14) “All in a day’s work” There was a cobbler who lived in a small town. He was good at making shoes, and made them for all the ...read more

  • A Storm At Sea, And A Question Of Jesus' Identity

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 25, 2015
    based on 7 ratings
     | 11,429 views

    How can Jesus sleep on in calm and peaceful repose when chaos, fear, disorder, panic and confusion are all around? Does He not care?

    “WHO IS THIS?” Mark 4:35-41. There is an old joke that asks why the chicken crossed the road? The answer is obvious: to get to the other side. I suppose the same could be said of crossing the sea, crossing to the other side of the world, or crossing to a region such as the territory of the ...read more

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jun 7, 2016
    based on 6 ratings
     | 10,641 views

    The surprise here is that the intention of God can be resisted, and if (we) turn He speaks of changing His mind.

    A VIEW FROM THE POTTER'S HOUSE. Jeremiah 18:1-11. On one occasion I was taken to a pottery museum, where one could purchase wares and also see them being made. I had made one or two small pottery items while at school (one of which remained on my mother’s back doorstep long after I had left ...read more

    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,399 views

    The Holy Spirit as first-fruits, and efficacious intercessor.

    A PRAYERFUL ADVOCATE FOR THOSE WHO GROAN. Romans 8:22-27. There are several references to the Holy Spirit in Romans 8. He is named at least nineteen times in the first twenty-seven verses. This serves to contrast the weakness of ‘the law of sin and death’ (discussed at length in Romans 7), with ...read more
