    What needs straightening out in my life? How can I help ease the path of others?

    Father Joseph Donders who lives in Washington DC tells an interesting story about going to the airport to pick up a friend who was coming to visit him from Africa. It was a cold, winter day and all the trees were bare except for a few firs and pines. This was the first time his friend ever left ...read more

    The knitting together of kindred hearts in covenant love.

    THE DEW OF HERMON. Psalm 133:1-3. I like the Scottish Metrical version of this Psalm: “Behold, how good a thing it is, and how becoming well, Together such as brethren are in unity to dwell!” A good one to sing, perhaps, as we break bread together. “Behold” calls us to look carefully, ...read more

    Good morning, dear church family. We gather here today, not as strangers or as mere acquaintances, but as brothers and sisters united in the love of our heavenly Father. A love so profound, so unending, that it surpasses our understanding. I stand here today, not to preach my own words, but to ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,196 views

    Make me an offer I can't refuse!

    THE CALL OF WISDOM. Proverbs 9:1-6. Even before she invited us, Lady Wisdom “built her house” (Proverbs 9:1). The hewing out of Lady Wisdom’s “seven pillars” speaks of completeness (unlike the ‘folly’ in Edinburgh which was never completed), spaciousness, and endurance. ‘I go to prepare a ...read more

  • The Serpent And The Cross.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 13, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,380 views

    Without the Cross there is no salvation for any one of us, bitten as we are by the sting of death which is sin.

    THE SERPENT AND THE CROSS. John 3:14-21. JOHN 3:14. “And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up.” This refers back to an incident during the wilderness wanderings of the children of Israel (cf. Numbers 21:4-9), and forward to the crucifixion. ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,007 views

    O LORD, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth.

    A PRAYER OF PRAISE. Psalm 8:1-9. This is the only praise Psalm which is addressed entirely to the LORD. No call to worship like Psalm 95:1, ‘O come let us sing unto the LORD’. No asides to the congregation like Psalm 107:2, ‘Let the redeemed of the LORD say so’. Psalm 8:1. The vocative ...read more

     | 1,119 views

    Past mercies are the foundation of present prayers, and present prayers are the channel towards future blessings.

    A SOLEMN FEAST DAY. Psalm 81:1-10. This Psalm opens with a summons to resounding praise (Psalm 81:1-3), with reasons to do so attached (Psalm 81:4-7).

     | 1,158 views

    A call to sober-minded watchfulness in these last days.

    THE GRACE OF SERVICE. 1 Peter 4:7-11. Peter has already told us the ‘last days’ began at Pentecost (cf. Acts 2:16-18). Now he tells us that “the end of all things is at hand” (1 PETER 4:7a). Although he wrote those words nearly two millennia ago, that sense of imminence remains. The question is: ...read more

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 26, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 5,729 views

    When we recognise Jesus for who He is, we also see something of the glory of God.

    THE INCARNATION OF THE WORD. John 1:14-18. 1. THE WORD BECAME FLESH. Having established the connection between faith and being “born again” (John 1:12-13), the Apostle John now explains how that has been made possible. It took nothing less than the incarnation of God Himself (John 1:1). We can ...read more
