Who Is Your True Mother?

Contributed by Malcolm Rogers on Apr 14, 2016

Where are our true origins? We can only be free from death and law and the need to justify ourselves when we realise that our real mother is not from this world, but that we are children of the heavenly Jerusalem, of the promise of God

Paul writes, ‘The other woman corresponds to the Jerusalem above; she is free and she is our mother’ (Galatians 4.26) It is strange language. Why not ‘home’? It would make more sense But when Paul talks about ‘our mother’, he is speaking of our origins. Our ...read more

Go! And Proclaim The Gospel - The Gospel Of Mark Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Aug 16, 2025

The Gospel of Mark is the shortest of the four Gospels, He presents Jesus as the Servant King, the One who gave His life as a ransom for many (Mark 10:45). And woven through its pages is a strong call for His disciples — that’s you and me — to go and proclaim the Gospel.

What Makes A Church Ugly? Ephesus Pt 5 Series

Contributed by Kent Kessler on Oct 14, 2010

The problem with Ephesus is they were doing so much inside the walls they never went out. They were a “come-and-get-it” church and not a “go-and-get-them” church. This church saw their culture as something you stay away from.

“What Makes a Church Ugly?” Ephesus. Revelation 2:1-7 The world tries to get it right, but in all of its wisdom it can never measure up to the truth of God—it is all foolishness. LOVE is not a feeling to be lost—but it can be forsaken. LOVE causes us some great and full ...read more
