In this message, we consider (among other things) how the sovereignty of God should stimulate faith rather than sedate it. If we trust God for the ends, then we should also trust him for the means - and often, God uses his people as the means.

A Midweek Message: To be or to pretend to be? (Joshua 9)
In this message, based on the Book of Joshua chapter 9, we recognise that faith must be genuine. The Gibeonites try to deceive Joshua, but ultimately realise that they must be honest and sincerely trust in the Lord God.

A Midweek Message: Judgment at Jericho (Joshua 6)
In Joshua chapter 6, God passes judgment on Jericho as the Israelites begin to conquer the promised land. This points us to a future judgment that only Jesus can save us from.

A Midweek Message: What does the Bible say about deacons?
After a few very busy weeks, things are slowing down a bit now and so there's time to update the church blog!
As a church, we hope to appoint deacons in the future and therefore I preached recently on the topic.

A Midweek Message: Something starts, another thing ends, and one thing never changes (Joshua 5)
Having crossed the river, the people now pause. In this message, we consider why God reinstated male circumcision; why He stopped providing manna; and what it means for God to be sovereign.
