Scripture: Acts 2:1-41.

Scripture: Mark 10:35-45.
It is easy to criticise. It is easy to ask, "What do I get out of it?". Christ set us an example of servanthood: let's ask, what can I do for the church? What can I do for others?

Scripture: Ephesians 2:1-10.
The resurrection impacts everybody. As Christians we are raised with Christ, we must count ourselves dead to sin and the old life, and we live our new life for Christ. There are a few challenges here.

Speaker: Harry Pritchard.
Scripture: Luke 19:28-44.
We may note the Triumphal Entry as a joyous occasion, but we see a range of emotions in the account. When we live by faith, we may encounter various difficulties, but we can know that God is working His purposes out.

Scripture: Matthew 26:36-46.
Prayer should not be an ordeal. Prayer makes a tremendous difference, and we put ourselves in danger when we neglect it. Jesus asked His disciples, "Could you not pray for one hour?" - for how long do we pray?

Date: 23 March 2025.
Speaker: Harry Pritchard.
Scripture: Matthew 18:21-35.
We can listen to the parable and have little sympathy for the unmerciful servant, but the point is that we need to forgive those who offend or upset us, with the stark warning that God will not forgive us our sins if we do not do so.
