Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 23, 2015

How’s your eyesight? When you look at Jesus what do you see? A prophet, a teacher, or a miracle worker? If you see more than that, that he’s God’s anointed ruler, then are you taking up your cross every day and following him, submitting to his rule?

Developing Physical Intimacy Series

Contributed by Tim Smith on Feb 7, 2016

Let's Be Spiritually Fit !

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Jan 20, 2006

A short homily for some elderly Christians living in sheltered accomodation. I don’t think I took on board the right amount of spiritual food over the Christmas and New Year period. God is challenging me (and perhaps you!) to be spiritually fit.
