Society falls apart when the land is filled with liars. But God will deal with them.

Last week, we worked our way through Psalm 11. That psalm was written for people to pray, when society is completely falling apart. The foundations are being destroyed, and it looks hopeless. The wicked are too many, and too powerful, and can't be stopped. But in the face of this, the ...read more

The Revelation Nativity

Contributed by Jay Winters on Dec 24, 2007

Advent only has three midweek services this year. This was the last midweek sermon before Christmas. I was reminded of this interesting text reading a book by John Eldridge and thought that it’s a "nativity" story that doesn’t get much press in the church

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, the Holy Three In One who sent a child to slay a dragon. Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, It’s not the usual nativity story that we’re used to. There is no mention of shepherds and their flocks, no mysterious glow around a ...read more

Enough!

Contributed by Michael Stark on Jan 17, 2023

Jesus Calls Us Into His Mission

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on May 19, 2007

As with the Apostles, today’s Church is called to be the Church in mission. This short sermon also emphasises that we must not ’star gaze’. We are simply to be involved in God’s mission.

Sadly as I preach this morning there will be ‘preachers’ stating that Jesus did not ascend vertically into heaven; and whilst I will not today have the opportunity to challenge such false teachers let’s remind ourselves of this: After appearing to the disciples “many times in ways that proved ...read more
