    [NOTE: You may find it helpful to place a wooden cross on a table, perhaps in the centre of the room, and to burn a small amount of incense near to the foot of the cross. The incense rising around the cross can provide a wonderful visual and ’nazal’ illustration. The nurses at the care home said ...read more

It was the furthest I had ever driven at the time and my mother very kindly allowed me to use her car. Sadly the car was (for me back then) ...read more

    The miracle greater than walking on water is that Jesus lifts us up during our time of need.

    I’m sure some are asking “why did he select this passage for such a time as this?” and understandably so. If you think it’s true that Jesus walked on water, you’re right. If you think the miracle stops there, you’re wrong. Most people refer to this passage as where Jesus Walked on Water. And it ...read more

    Sometimes when we make a mistake in life it feels so final, you may think it’s all over for you. The game of life isn’t like a game in which you only have 1 chance to win before it’s over. God will give you a second chance.

    The God of a 2nd Chance. John 8:1-10 I wonder, is there any person here who has been in a situation in which you really wanted something to work out but it didn’t? You felt like if I just had a second chance, I know I could make this thing work. (I Wonder am I talking to anybody in here). ...read more
