I remember one man who came home from work one day to discover his wife had had the removalists in and they’d taken everything apart from his personal belongings. I remember one man whose wife left him and his children for ...read more

Hosea's Love - Betrayal And Judgement Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Nov 2, 2005

Hosea gives a picture not only of the way God hurts when his people are unfaithful, but about the real power of his love. Here is a love that expects a response of single-minded faithfulness, and that won’t rest until it gets it.

Recently, I have been doing an in depth study of some of the major prophets of the Bible.

Rejoice! Why? Series

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Nov 25, 2004

We are often told that we are to rejoice as Christians but you ever wonder: Why?

And you’ll recall from earlier messages that the designation Major and Minor has nothing to do with the importance of the Prophet or his message, instead it is indicative of the length of his message. And most of these guys had a ...read more
