The Holy Spirit in the Old Testament (1 Peter 1:10-12)

What was the Holy Spirit doing before Jesus was born? And if the Christian faith is all about Christ, why should we bother reading the Old Testament? We consider the answers to these questions and others in this sermon, based on 1 Peter 1:10-12.

The Midweek Message: Growing up in every way (Ephesians 4)

In Ephesians 4, the Apostle Paul lists teaching roles within the New Testament church.  What does the Bible teach us about Apostles, Prophets and Evangelists?  

Paul also tells us that one of the main roles of a pastor is to equip believers with the truth, which will then enable them to serve others.  The church community grows up as people lovingly minister to each other.
