Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 27, 2022

Seals And Trumpets And Bowls, Oh My! (Revelation 6-16) Series

Contributed by James Jackson on Nov 8, 2025

Revelation 6–16 can feel like the scariest part of the journey—war, famine, plagues, and wrath. But behind every seal, trumpet, and bowl stands a merciful God whose justice is never chaotic, always redemptive. When God wins, we win—and the story that began with mercy ends with mercy.

Good morning! Please open your Bibles to Revelation 6. Some of you may find this hard to believe, but back in the olden days—the 1970s—there was no streaming, no DVDs, and definitely no pause button. VCRs existed, but they cost over a thousand dollars, so nobody you knew actually had one. If ...read more

A Call To Worship

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 23, 2015

Contributed by Samuel Stone on Oct 31, 2007

Today is father’s day, but our Gospel lesson according to the Common Lectionary focuses mostly on women ... I guess this morning God wants us men learn from the women.

Reflection B.2 / Does God Have A Purpose In Coronavirus? / God Responds To Sin And Oppression

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on May 11, 2020

The title is 'God responds to sin and oppression'. That's a very basic thing to understand in our process of thinking about coronavirus! Not only that, God responds to sin and oppression in an appropriate way. The plagues of Egypt show us this.

We’re looking at three questions. Is coronavirus a judgement from God? Are we living in end times? And, what does the Bible say about COVID-19? Today we’ll look at some general principles about how God responds to a situation he doesn’t like. 1 Kings 6:1 tells us that ‘In the four hundred and ...read more

Reflection B.18 / Does God Have A Purpose In Coronavirus? / "Are These Questions Really Necessary?”

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on May 11, 2020

Someone may ask, 'Why do who even need to think about whether God might be behind coronavirus?' Here's part of the answer, at least.

I’ve often mentioned that I’m asking three difficult questions. In reality, there are two main questions: ‘Is coronavirus a judgement from God?’ and ‘Are we living in end times?’ But are these important questions to ask? Suppose you don’t feel well and go to the doctor. The doctor checks your ...read more
