After Jonah failed to obey God and ran away, God was gracious. Not only did he retrieve him from the sea, but he gave him a work again to serve him. Listen yesterday’s sermon to learn more about the “God of the second chance”.
One of our members has produced a small book (A5) of some of the games which we have used in our children’s clubs. You might find it useful too. You can download it for free from here.
When Jonah was thrown over the boat, it looked like the end. But in fact, he found the God who is fully of grace. Listen yesterday’s sermon to learn more about how God can graciously deal with guilty sinners and how we can seek him for that mercy.
Yesterday’s sermon (MP3) can now be downloaded here. Jonah was a prophet whom God had used to speak to his people Israel. But when God told him to go to Nineveh and preach to them, he went the other way. In this message from Jonah 1:1-3 we are shown the importance of obeying God – and pointed to Christ who after a life of perfect obedience suffered a punishment much worse than Jonah’s for us.
Yesterday (Sunday 9th May)’s sermon is now available for download. “A young, rich, successful man came running to Jesus, and humbly asked him to tell him about eternal life. What a hopeful sign! Surely we would delight to have such people coming to our churches. But in fact, Jesus allowed him to go away when it became clear that the young man was not willing to make the sacrifices of the kingdom. This is a powerful and important passage to tell us the truth about the impossibility of salvation without God first turning our hearts right around.”
This sermon, preached on Sunday 2nd May, is on the famous passage where Jesus says, “let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them.” It contains deep lessons on true service, and true conversion. Jesus warns us that unless we understand and obey what he teaches us here, we can never enter the kingdom of heaven. How vital this passage is! Download the sermon here.
Our holiday club for children in Pioneer Estate is running Monday 26th – Wednesday 28th April 2010, from 10 a.m. onwards. If you want to come from West Indies, meet at the church at 9.30 a.m. and you can be safely walked across.
In Mark 10:1-12, which was the passage for our sermon on 25th April, the Pharisees asked Jesus a question about marriage and divorce. Jesus’ answer not only answered the question, but gave us wide-ranging and powerful teaching about authority, human sexuality and relationships. It also draws us to him, as the one who washes us clean and is fully faithful clean our many sins and failings. Download the MP3 file here.
