Mountaintops

I was talking to my family this week about the preparation I was doing for this sermon. I explained that I had read some commentaries and written some notes, but that I was struggling a bit. What’s the Bible passage, and what’s it about. Well, I said. It’s towards the end of Hebrews, it draws […]

Wonder. Trust. Grace.

I wonder if any one here is an autograph hunter, or if anyone has an autograph from some particularly well known? I wonder if you, like me, have seen at the end of tennis matches at Wimbledon, people – often youngsters lining up at the entrance with programmes and big tennis balls for the players […]

Mark 9 – Salt and Fire

I wonder how you feel about salt. I have what I think is slightly love/hate relationship with it. On the one hand I know that too much salt is bad for me – high blood pressure etc. So, I don’t usually cook with salt – I just leave it out when recipes list it. My […]

Legacy

Does anyone know what this is? Yes, it’s a pie slice – but is more than that. This is a legacy, and inheritance. When my gran died, my mum inherited some of Gran’s things and she asked me and my sister if there were any mementoes that we would like. I had a look through […]

Mark 6 – More than enough

I wonder when the last time you were hungry was? I really dislike feeling hungry, I tend to get grumpy. And I find that I feel hungrier when I’m not doing very much. If I’m just sitting in front of the TV, I find myself wandering into the kitchen in search of a snack. But […]

One family, in Christ

I wonder how your family or friends can tell that you are upset. Do you go quiet? Do you shout? The Christians in Galatia, who received this letter from Paul would have been in no doubt that Paul was upset. It is, in short, quite a grumpy letter. Paul is beside himself at the way […]

Easter Redux

So, in the last week a couple of months have passed. Did you notice? Let me explain. Last Sunday we were with Jesus’ friends on that first Easter Sunday morning, as they discovered that the tomb was empty. Some of them had seen Jesus, but not many, and they were just starting to get their […]

Intimate with the Ultimate – Relational Prayer

Last week we began our exploration of some of the ideas in the book, Intimate with the Ultimate, and were introduced to the idea that prayer is the conversation that happens naturally as we walk with Jesus, work with Jesus, and watch Jesus. This morning we’re focussing in on the idea of what happens when […]

Heroes of Faith – Joseph

Occasionally on my day off in the summer I enjoy watching the coverage of the cycling grand tours, the Tour de France, the Giro d’Italia, or the Vuelta Espana. There’s something about watching the beautiful continental landscape slide by, with the gentle commentary passing the hours. However, the coverage in the UK is never on […]

Loving God, Loving Each Other, Loving Our Neighbours, Exploring, and Celebrating. Last week was the last of the services […]
