Crowding Around Jesus
When people really want something… they’ll form a queue. It may not always be orderly or neat, but people line up for the boxing day sales, they queue outside Aldi before the weekly “Special Buys” go on sale, there’s even the few faithful crowding around apple stores when a new iPhone is released. We’ll go
The One Message We Need To Hear
What if there was only one message you needed to hear? I’ve written 100 sermons but perhaps there should only be one I ever have to give. If I’d know that earlier, I could have saved myself a lot of time in preparation. Love God with everything. Love others as you love yourself. It’s the

Why we keep telling the same story
Hopefully you didn’t watch the movie Titanic or Apollo 13 wondering what happens! So why make a movie about it? Why would we want to hear a story we already know? Why retell history? That’s the question we often face as Christians – why should we keep telling the same message? Isn’t it outdated or
It’s the end of the world as we know it…
The church started life as a marginal minority. A heretical sect despised by the Jews and persecuted by the Romans. But it grew.
