    Philemon

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Nov 22, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,200 views

    Paul's letter to Philemon is short but it has some wonderful lessons for us, especially about how we address something that's wrong.

    I’d like you to imagine a scene. It’s about 60 A.D. We’re in the home of a wealthy man named Philemon. Philemon lives in the city of Colossae, in the south-east of what is now Turkey. Some time back, he met the apostle Paul and became a Christian, and he’s now one of the leaders of a church. ...read more

    Welcome The King Of Glory!

     | 288 views

    As we begin another Advent season let’s turn our thoughts to a portion of God’s Word that will guide us in our preparation for Christmas. Psalm 24 will also provide us with correct expectations for our celebration of Jesus’ birth.

    Preparation. Expectation. From today until the “big day” in December those are the two things most of us will be experiencing. If we are adults, we will probably put some time into preparing for Christmas. Maybe we have already invested a few hours in the upcoming holiday. Many of us did that ...read more

    Contributed by John Gaston on Nov 28, 2025
     | 428 views

    In the story of Cornelius is hidden a great truth about prayer: repeated prayers gain a weight of prayer which increase their potency. Persistent prayer becomes very visible before God, hastening His action.

    Worship That God Approves

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 20, 2026
    based on 1 rating
     | 153 views

    In the Old Testament God had given elaborate details that were to be followed by the Israelites in the way they worshipped Him. May our worship be acceptable to God and may we give Him the due honor and reverence knowing that our God is holy and awesome.

    We read in Joshua 8:30-31, Then Joshua built an altar unto the LORD God of Israel in mount Ebal, As Moses the servant of the LORD commanded the children of Israel, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, an altar of whole stones, over which no man hath lift up any iron: and they offered ...read more

    Fear is one of the most common things Christians have to face. We need to distinguish between the enemy or danger and the fear that the enemy or danger produces, and know how to deal with the fear.

I have given the title of today’s talk, ‘A storm called fear.’ It’s about fear, worry and anxiety. Next Sunday, we’re ...read more
