    When the angel came to Mary and told her what was going to happen. She responded by saying "may it be to me as you have said". This became the theme for her life. It can, and should, become the theme for our lives too.

    Are you ready and willing to place your future in the hands of the Lord? Are you? That’s what we are called to do. That’s what faith does when it is expressed in your life. It is the unyielding belief that God will do right by you; that God knows best; that he is correct when he ...read more

    Carol Service sermon focussing on the enjoyment and ignorance that surrounds much of the world’s "Christmas" understanding.

    I’m looking forward to visiting Middle Earth in a day or two... J.R.R.
