Sermons on Church
Haggai 2:1-9 Are you a nostalgic person? Some people are forever looking back to ‘the good old days’. It’s not healthy in life generally, nor is it in church life. Instead, we need to be working hard in building the church in the present, looking to the future.
Haggai 1:1-15 A lot of life is taken up with building – building our CV, our career, a family, our future, our business. But how committed are we to God’s building project? Are we, like the people of Haggai’s day, absorbed in building our own houses but neglecting God’s?
Mark 3:7-35 ‘Oh when the saints, go marching in, O Lord I want to be in that number’. If we understand what is at stake, we’ll want to make sure that we are in that number. But there are many ways to end up outside the people of God. And some who think they’re inside are actually outside. This passage reveals how to make sure we’re in.
Acts 16:6-40 Sometimes people who aren’t Christian say ‘I’m not the churchy type’. But actually there is no churchy type. In Acts we see Jesus pursuing unlikely people and then uniting them together as one family – as he is still doing the same today.
1 Corinthians 12-13Being a football supporter and a church member may on the surface seem pretty similar. You have a common interest, you pay some money to go and watch once a week, you stand and sing, and some people get very passionate about it. But church members are more than supporters. They are part of the body of Christ.

Matthew 4:4 Are you someone who eats?! Of course! Our physical bodies need food to sustain them; the physical life we have needs food in order to continue. And it’s the same with our spiritual life, our soul. Jesus said “Man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.”
Acts 2:42 Devocean is a conservation group for those devoted to cleaning up our oceans. Devoted to Dachsunds is a shop for those who are mad about sausage dogs. The early Christians were devoted to church. Why should we be? And how can we become more like them?
