Failed? Don’t Give Up!

Contributed by John Gaston on Sep 27, 2020

God encourages us that even if we fail, not to stop serving Him. When we sin, God doesn't automatically throw us out of covenant with Him. As a parent He disciplines us to help us become children of God.

Dos And Don'ts Of Salvation

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Mar 22, 2021

A defibrillator can’t save someone while it’s in its cabinet. It has to be taken down and operated. In the same way, Jesus’ death and resurrection don’t save a person unless a person makes use of them. A person has to respond to them. There are some 'dos' and 'don'ts'.

In recent years something new has appeared on many high streets: defibrillators. Defibrillators can be life-savers if someone suffers a heart attack. They aren’t only on high streets, of course. I like to do ‘Park Run’ (when it’s happening!) and lots of Park Runs have defibrillators. You often ...read more

Contributed by James Dina on Jul 23, 2020

Do not keep wisdom to yourself. If God can retrieve wisdom from the wise, he can also refuse to diffuse it to others. When you receive the secrets of God, they must be communicated to others. Do not keep them to yourself.
