Paul the Sent One (Apostle) is a hero to many people. In this introductory Talk, we hear a little about his background, violently persecuting the fledgling Church and yet a few months before he was executed in Rome, he knew that he had fought a good race and that he had been faithful to God's call on his life. God had drastically transformed him, changing the trajectory of his life. May we too be faithful to God's call to the mission He wants us to take part in. The script for the whole Servi...

Many of us say, "Amen!" regularly. What does it mean? It reminds us that God's Word is firm and true. God is faithful. We can rest in His grace. The four Gospel writers help us to understand the real importance of Jesus' words as they fairly often include the word at the beginning of statements made by Jesus. Like a town crier, let us listen carefully to what Jesus proclaims to us. Jesus is 'God's Yes,' being the guarantor of God's promises and purposes. Let us say a hearty Yes to whatever Go...

God is our Father. We may not have had great dads growing or we may long to have been a father, so Father's Day may not be a day to celebrate. However, look how Jesus treated those who were physically around Him on earth. Aim to connect with God. He loves you. He can do things in your life that you can't even imagine. Open your heart and mind to Him. The script for the whole Service can be read here.

Athletes who are serious with what they are doing make it a priority to do what their coach tells them to do. When and how to exercise, what to eat, sleep well and so on. As we follow God as our Lord, so we too should make it a priority to do what He tells us to do. We need to take purposeful actions if we intend to follow Him seriously and with conviction. How wonderful that God makes it part of our fellowship to literally do things together, for the mutual benefit of everyone. Let God...

Our brains cope with remembering a phenomenal amount of information. Some things are much more important than others! Jesus' death, resurrection and ascension are vital to be pondered regularly in our lives. We travel much faster from bondage towards freedom as we meditate on God's strength, kindness and brilliance. Our Lord continues to lavish His love on us. The Bible reminds us to deliberate recollect these things and not to forget them through not considering them highly enough in our liv...

Many of us have attended wedding ceremonies as guests. We're used to what goes on there. Something extremely important has happened. Jesus is calling us, the Church, to be His Bride! God paid what He thought you were worth to make this happen and He is still sending us love letters, which show His affection and commitment to us. Let's linger at the Lord's table. We won't grow old there! We do need to be prepared though and make ourselves ready. Let Jesus wrap you in His robe of righteou...

Millennia ago God spoke to a selected few - perhaps, kings, priests and prophets. The coming of the Holy Spirit in Jerusalem at Pentecost was a seismic change. Now God would speak to anyone. How is your connectivity with God? Are you plugged into Him? Let Him equip and empower to work for Him. Ask Him to increase your desire, thirst and love for Jesus. The script for the whole Service can be read here.

"This is My beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to Him." Matthew (chapter 17), Mark (chapter 9) and Luke (chapter 9) all describe Jesus going to the top of a mountain with Peter, James and John. They weren't alone for long, as Moses and Elijah appeared and talked with Jesus. Why did this happen to three of Jesus' disciples and why is it still applicable for you to learn about it in the 2020s? Jesus was not just a rabbi and miracle-worker - He was also the Son of God. God spoke fr...

Two of Jesus' followers were walking towards Emmaus when Jesus joined them, though they were not aware that it was Him. It was Resurrection Day and they simply didn't know the major significance of what was happening. God is calling us not to simply 'stare into the sky' (Acts 1) of where we last saw the Lord, but to work with and for Him on the missions that He has given us all to complete. Let's get our brooms out, even if the task seems difficult. Jesus is real. Let's give an appropri...

Whilst physically on earth, Jesus didn't leave people in their valley of despair with health or relationship issues. He had compassion, entered their dark valley and then transformed their life. God is still transforming lives today. He comes to guide, confront, heal and encourage us whilst we are in a valley. Perhaps a valley is a good place to be? Reach out to God, knowing that He is with you and then ask Him to transform you that He might be glorified and others might be blessed. Let us ge...
