How The Gospel Can Inspire The Church Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Aug 7, 2008

Encourage one another with the greatness of the hope that is ours. This hope is so great that it’s all we need to motivate us. It’s a hope that will keep us from the fear of death, keep us from despair, because it promises God’s power to be with us moment

Someone suggested that today’s service is bit like a funeral, or at least a memorial service and the passage we’re looking at today might reinforce that idea. But I hope that’s not how you see it. This is meant to be a celebration of good ministry that’s happened over a long period of time and ...read more

God offers all people an extraordinary invitation to come to him....

Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 14, 2010

I know people who want to mix the world with worship, but when Jesus said "You are the salt of the earth" (Matthew 5:13), He certainly wasn't referring to what happened to Lot's wife.

Two Contrasting Cities - Babylon And Jerusalem

Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Jan 13, 2001

The two cities symbolise diametrically opposed principles, Jerusalem represents the eternal while Babylon depicts the earthly having no abiding value.

TWO CONTRASTING CITIES - BABYLON AND JERUSALM Books which outlive the generation in which they were written are called “classics”.

Riding The Waves Of Life

Contributed by Owen Bourgaize on Apr 20, 2003

The stilling of the storm on Galilee is a parable demonstrating that life is a roller-coaster experience but with Jesus in command allis well, requiring us to repond in faith.

RIDING THE WAVES OF LIFE I once heard a minister use a memorable phrase in his prayer and it stays with me: it was "our short and uncertain earthly life and pilgrimage". Life is uncertain. This is true for the Christian as well, as we don’t live in some magic or charmed circle just because we’re ...read more
