    Paul’s first missionary journey is a model for our own missionary endeavours in the modern world. God continues to call us to preach the gospel for thesame reasons as he did Paul.

    Why do Mission? One of the questions often asked by Christians over the last 30 or so years has been the question, "Why should we still be sending people out to preach the gospel to other nations and cultures?" Sometimes the question is asked in a slightly more negative way: e.g. "Do we have ...read more

    Understanding how to obtain the blessings of suffering as Christians.

    WE MUST THROUGH MANY TRIBULATIONS... What is tribulation, but that very influence that brings us nearer to the heart of God than prayers or hymns?

    This sermon identifies four attributes worth admiration in Paul and Barnabas. These same attributes ought to be present in us as fathers.

    Admiration is an interesting thing. The dictionary defines it as “a feeling of pleasure, wonder and approval”. I think that most men want their children to admire them in one sense or another. I mean I want my children to take pleasure in me as their father, I want them to have a sense of wonder ...read more

    Dr. Wood used this sermon to show the congregation that the first witnesses of Jesus Christ were willing at any moment to give their life for the ministry of Jesus Christ. Our call today is no different. We should be willing to die for the Gospel of Jes

    Suffering Shame in the name of any person simply means that you have given your life to that person in order to suffer shame. We think of the negative aspect of suffering shame.
