Every day before his time of meditation, in order to show his devotion, he put a dish of butter up on ...read more

    The Christian has two spiritual fathers: God and Abraham. The blessing and promises of God to Abraham become our inheritance in Christ!

    The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers… Why do you hear this line so often in the Bible? Who are these men of God, and what makes them so important that their names are scattered all over the Bible in both the old and new Testaments? They are all forefathers of Jesus ...read more

    A short talk for Good Friday. I am deeply challenged by Peter reminding us that when suffering for his faith, Jesus did not retaliate and made no threats; and we’re called to follow his example!

    When I was at school there was no such thing as an anti-bullying policy, and I think I was on the receiving end of a large amount of abuse, mainly due to my surname, Pidgeon, and my painfully thin physique. As I look back I think I eventually adopted my own personal anti-bullying policy and it went ...read more

    Hello Church! I want to ask you a question today. Have you ever had an earworm?

If you ever get an earworm, the ...read more
