God is at work. He was at work with Nicodemus, a pharisee, when He went to speak privately to Jesus. Less than three years later Nicodemus would provide the equivalent in weight of spices of over thirty bags of sugar, as he and Joseph of Arimat...

Peter, that well-known fisherman and disciple of Jesus, like us had many decisions to make about whether he would intentionally follow Jesus or not. In this Talk we briefly look at seven incidents in his life and are encouraged to fully give ou...

At the beginning of this Series of Talks, we remind ourselves that whilst we do need special touches from God, we also need to be indwelt with the Holy Spirit and that we need to be intentional with God in the way that we live our lives. Let's ...

Lent is a wonderful time of preparation for accepting Jesus - His commands and His desires. In life we might be prepared for big events, but are we always prepared for small or unwelcome things? In this Talk we are reminded that we should live ...

God plainly says to us all, "Come to Me and learn from Me." As full-time followers of God we endeavour to meet with Him each day - simply to be with Him. Through the years we have all created routines for our Quiet Times with God that seem to w...

Do we come to Jesus openly or do we count on Him where other peoiple don't realise? There is no need to hide that we need God in our lives. Let's rely openly on God and enter into new life through Him.You can read the script for the whol...

Jesus came to bring reconciliation to our Heavenly Father. He paid a very real penalty to enable this to happen. We too are called to be ambassadors of reconciliation. Matt shares a little of what he and his family will soon be doin...

In this Talk we are informed about the work of Mercy Ships around the world. They currently have two ships and there are many ways that we can get involved. The speaker refers to an excellent video that gives more information. You can watch it ...

God calls us to be holy. We should dedicate our lives to serve Him. We hear Exodus 3:1-14 read and remember that on a mundane and ordinary day for Moses, God arrived and made it a pivotal day for him. God could use Moses because he was generall...

God calls us Saints - people set apart for a special purpose. A people living exclusively for God. What an honour! As set apart people, we are called to look after our neighbour and to give of ourselves, even to strangers. Focusing on Jesus let...

As full-time followers of Jesus we are part of easily the largest army in the world, with God as our commander. Just as normal soldiers work and serve under the authority of higher ranked officers, so we need to do the same. We need to live und...

We are called to be set apart for God. As we increasingly fear God in a positive and healthy way, so we are more able to live for God and serve Him with an abandoned devotion.The script for the whole Service can be read

Trust! Remember! Listen! Recognise! Run to! Proverbs 3:1-12 has several imperative verbs for us to obey. At the heart of Christianity is a relationship with God. We shouldn't try to cheapen our devotion to God by turning what we do with and for...

As full-time followers of Jesus, we are on a pilgrimage. We need correct attitudes and excellent resources to help us stay close to our holy God. Clean hands and a pure heart are the fundamentals. Psalm 139:23,24 is a wonderful prayer to regula...

Sacrifices were a regular part of Jewish worship in the Old Testament. How can we be 'living sacrifices' for God now? Is this part of the transforming and conforming that God calls us to in the mid 2020s? How do we please God in our normal day-...

God is holy - the angels know that very well and they strongly express that truth. Can we not rush away from God, being scared of His holiness, majesty and strength? Could we sit and bask in His presence? As we do, like Isaiah, we will be chang...

Do you have plans for 2025? We will all have choices to make every day. The important issue is whether in our actions and reactions we put God at the centre of our lives or only on the periphery. Let's actively and intententionally put God at t...

Christmas Day is a special day of the year. Most people do things that aren't normal to their regular routines because of the Baby Jesus. What if we let the grown-up Jesus totally influence our lives every day? Would that mean that we could cel...

A YWAM team who have just finished the lecture phase of their Discipleship Training School (DTS) joined us for this Service. We were reminded that we should put things aside in order to be with Jesus. As we sit at His feet, we are acknowledging...

The shepherds and magi recognised Jesus with his parents in Bethlehem because they were told where to find Him and what He would look like.  We all need a Saviour because we have all missed the mark with God. Jesus is that Saviour, but Jes...

Everyone of us experiences and promotes different cultures in our lives. The Bible clearly says that we should embrace the culture of heaven more than anything else in our lives. John 1:14 says that Jesus was full of grace and truth. He command...

We are all called to make a difference to those around us. Even if our talents and resources are like a drop in the ocean to the needs that exist, God is still anointing us to bridge the gap and fulfil what He is asking us to do. In this Talk, ...

We all eat as part of our normal routines! Jesus was obviously the same, using the opportunity to meet with others, sharing His life with a wide variety of people so that they might know more about what God is calling them to do. Jesus put love...

In this Talk we briefly consider how Jesus met Elijah and Moses on the Mount of Transfiguration, as well as a little of the back story to this.  God is far greater than we can understand or imagine. He can break into time, doing as He wish...

We are in battles every day of our lives. Let's follow what King Jehoshaphat and the People of Judah did when they were fearful of enemies just about to engage them in battle (2 Chronicles 20). They sought God wholeheartedly, reminding Him of H...
