     | 2,346 views

    When Abraham willingly offered his son Isaac on the altar, he had no clue that this was a fore-shadow of the supreme sacrifice that God would make many years later. This sermon explains what that supreme sacrifice was, and how this could alter our lives for eternity.

     | 1,957 views

    Too often, preachers are guilty of preaching that the overflow is always financial. Here we take a look at how there can be other overflow as well

    We don’t know a lot about them as a church.

After Jesus’ time with the disciples in the upper room, He prayed His High Priestly prayer and as Rob spoke about last Sunday.

    What is it like to have a heart melting like wax, and all the bones out of joint and being poured out like water? The Lord knew on the cross – it was for you and me. There was no sorrow like His. The Redeemer of all eternity sealed the new covenant in His own blood.
