Value Christian Fellowship“So what is the difference” I hear you ask “between this and valuing the church, which we looked at yesterday?” Yesterday I was arguing the case for valuing being able to come together to worship God and to be in the place where God’s special blessing is upon His people. This is a […]

Value coming together as a churchProbably every A.G.M. I plead with church members to be at services Sunday AM, PM and Church Night whenever possible.

Sorry for the lateness of this blog – having been down the church AM with Matthew preparing tomorrow’s service, I just wanted to enjoy the sunshine this afternoon! – wasn’t it great for those of us who were able to sit out in it? So… Given, as we have seen that God is sovereign over […]

Who’s in control of Covid-19? – part 2

We will leave the question of why this is happening and what God wants to teach through it to another day. For today I want to simply address the question of: Why should we be glad as Christians that God is sovereign over it? I could give many reasons, but will restrict myself to just […]
