Is It Worth It?

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on May 13, 2023

This week it's 'Christian Aid Week' (in the UK). Christian Aid calls on Christians to 'give, act and pray.' All good things to do. But we might wonder, is it worth it? Isn't the situation for Planet Earth hopeless?

This week is ‘Christian Aid Week.’ Once a year, Christian Aid especially encourages us as Christians to think about how we respond to a great sea of need in the world. Since this is Christian Aid Week, I thought I should tell you what Christian Aid want to tell us. Christian Aid has prepared ...read more

God Will Be With You

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 22, 2025

I will not leave you or forsake you.” (ESV) This were the words of God to Joshua as he assured him that He would be with him just as ...read more

Sermon # 44 - God Is Mindful Of Us Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 24, 2025

Jonah sat outside the city of Nineveh in the blazing heat fuming against God, but God graciously appointed a plant to grow and give shade to Jonah. No matter what our situation is, let’s remember that God is mindful of us and He will never leave us nor forsake us.

For our meditation let us look at Jonah 4:6, “Now the LORD God appointed a plant and made it come up over Jonah that it might be a shade over his head, to save him from his discomfort. So Jonah was exceedingly glad because of the plant.” (ESV) God gave Jonah a task to go and preach against ...read more

Can I Get A Witness

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Nov 12, 2024

In our text, we find an impossible situation started with a sleepless night. We have all probably had those kinds of nights. Something keeps us up, we are restless, or our minds cannot rest. Like Nebuchadnezzar, we may have a really bad dream or nightmare.

TITLE: CAN I GET A WITNESS SCRIPTURE: DANIEL 2:9-24 I love when a writer of the Bible just stops what he is writing and beings to praise God. But it is even more impressive to me when someone who is not connected to Jehovah sees the work of Jehovah and has to praise Him, even if that person ...read more

Abraham And Sarah Series

Contributed by Roshelle Brenneise on Oct 17, 2024

Abram’s hands were not clean. Sarai’s hands were not clean. Hagar’s hands were not clean. This situation was never a part of God’s plan. It was the result of distrust. Period. Full stop. And yet…… God did not abandon the plan. He was committed to these people in spite of themselves.

October 19, 2024 Last week we concluded with God promising, again, to make Abram a great nation and then ratifying the covenant by walking through the carcasses – taking upon himself the consequences of a failed covenant. Which brings us to Genesis 16. It had been 10 years since God first ...read more
