Sermon on Proverbs 1-3.
Topics: Wisdom, Proverbs
Jesus welcomes people (Mark 11:1-19) God’s gracious purpose has always been to gather a people to himself. The story of the human race however is one of turning from God and banishment from his presence. And yet despite our rebellion God’s intention to bless humanity and to welcome us home remains and is restored through the coming of Jesus, his life and his sacrificial death. Today we consider the welcome that God has extended to us and to all people through Christ and what that means for...

Habakkuk: Wrestling with God – As we come to the close of our short series on the book of Habakkuk, we find in the final chapter some of the most moving statements of faith in the whole Bible. Habakkuk has certainly come a long way in his journey of faith, from complaint to patient trust, from wrestling to rejoicing. As we consider Habakkuk’s prayer there is much for us to learn from this prophet about our own journey of faith, and about why we too can rejoice in any and every circumstance.

Psalm 49 Sermon
Topic: Psalm 49 'Find your treasure in God'
The way of the Kingdom was not easy to grasp for the first followers of Jesus. This comes to a head in Luke 9 as Jesus, for the first time in Luke’s gospel, speaks of the necessity of the cross. Jesus came as the long promised Messiah, who would be victorious over his enemies, but this would come through his death and resurrection. Jesus’ way of self-denial and self-giving was as difficult to grasp for followers of Jesus then as it is now. But this is the way of our King, and the true way...

Topics: Grace, Jonah, Salvation
We enter into agreements with people all the time; we promise to do something for them and in exchange they’ll do something for us. In Deuteronomy Moses has outlined the agreement between God and his people. God has promised to bless them abundantly and they are to love him and serve him as they enter the Promised Land. But what happens when God’s people don’t keep their end the agreement? This talk on Deuteronomy 27-30 considers the waywardness of Israel, but also the faithful love of...

Topics: Joshua, God is faithful
It’s all too common that Christians have conflict with one another. James 4:1-12 tells us that the problem begins in our hearts, as we put our own desires ahead of loving our brothers and sisters. Though we are all prone to this, the good news is that in the gospel of our Lord Jesus are found all the resources required for reconciliation and living at peace with one another.

The first in a short sermon series on the prophet Habakkuk. As we dive into this part of God’s word recorded around 2600 years ago we find Habakkuk wrestling with the same kind of questions that confront us today. Habakkuk looks around is confronted by violence and injustice in his society and he wonders why God doesn’t do something about it. This week we see that God does hear our cries for help and we also consider how he answers this prayer for us.

As Israel gets ready to enter the Promised Land, Moses exhorts them that worship of God is to be at the centre of their life. They are not to worship as the other nations do; rather they are to worship as God directs them as in his grace God will make a way to meet with his people. The result will be a new community rejoicing in God’s goodness and reflecting God’s heart in their lives and actions. As we listen to God’s intentions for worship in Deuteronomy there is much for us to consider...

Sermon on Jonah 1. Jonah is a part of the Bible that is famous for the big fish, but at its heart, it’s a book about the gracious God who desires that people everywhere be saved.

Jesus Welcomes Children (Mark 10:13-16): The first in a three week series thinking about welcoming. God has graciously welcomed us into his family through Christ; in turn we express God’s heart as we likewise open our arms to welcome others. In this talk we see the welcome that Jesus extended to children in his ministry, but not only does Jesus welcome children he sets them before us as models of the true nature of discipleship. We will consider what that means for the life of our church as...

Living in Hope
Topics: Resolve, Hope
This sermon focuses on the early part of Jesus ministry and considers the new community that Jesus calls to himself. To the great shock and surprise of many in Jesus’ day those who were previously excluded were now welcomed by Jesus; and some who assumed they would be accepted found themselves on the outside. So who does Jesus welcome into God’s new gathering? And what barriers could get in the way and leave people excluded today?
