Date: 12 January 2025.
Speaker: Harry Pritchard.
Scripture: Matthew 25:1-13.
If we are not familiar with the parable, the response of the bridegroom to the foolish virgins comes as a shock. That is deliberate - we need shaking up. Are we ready for Christ's return? What does it mean to be ready?

Sunday Jan 05, 2025
Date: 5 January 2025.
Speaker: Harry Pritchard.
Scripture: Matthew 25:1-13.
Are you expecting Christ to return soon? Are you ready for Him to return soon? How do we reconcile a coming "very soon" when there has been a 2000 year delay since His promise?

Date: 29 December 2024.
Speaker: Harry Pritchard.
Scripture: Romans 13:1-5; 14:1-6.
We must stand for fundamental truths, whilst allowing differences between us on secondary issues. If you consider somebody weak because of their convictions, accept them and support them.

Sunday Dec 08, 2024
Date: 8 December 2024.
Speaker: Roland Taylor.
Scripture: Luke 2:1-21.
Jesus' first arrival caused ripples. Do not ignore the ripples: they won't go away, they will become a tidal wave when He returns again.
Sunday Nov 03, 2024
Sunday Nov 03, 2024
Date: 3 November 2024.
Speaker: Roland Taylor.
Scripture: Romans 13:8-14.
We are to love one another: it is the second greatest commandment - after loving the Lord your God. What does it mean? Is it the same as "affection"? How does it apply when people are not very nice?

Date: 27 October 2024.
Speaker: Katherine Peters.
Scripture: 1 Samuel 17:2-11, 16, 40, 45-50.

Date: 20 October 2024.
Speaker: Graham Steel.
Scripture: Hebrews 11:1-7; Galatians 5:22, 23.
Faith is of little meaning unless we demonstrate faithfulness, and that we do it when life is tough. We examine what it means to be faithful.

Date: 13 October 2024.
Speaker: Chris Whiteley.
Scripture: John 5:1-15.
How often do we sense that religion is restrictive? Christ came to set us free. But that gives us an important choice - what are you choosing?
