Where There's Christ There's Hope Series

Contributed by James Jack on Sep 24, 2006

In God we have a living hope - Christ who is risen from the dead.

You might have heard the old saying “where there’s life, there’s hope”. That saying tells us how important hope is to people, because if we reverse it, it says “where there’s hope, there’s life” – which means that where there’s no hope, there’s death. As humans, we live on hope. It feeds us, it ...read more

Imagine that in the past week, a wall had been erected, right about where the altar rail ...read more

Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no ...read more

The French under the command of Napoleon were fighting the Allies (British, Dutch, and Germans) under the command of the Duke of Wellington.
