Hebrews 11:23-12:2 What is faith? What does it mean to live a life of faith? In this passage, we continue our walk through the Hall of Faith with stories of danger and rescue from deep in Bible history. Listen in to think about what these lives could possibly mean for us.
John 11:1-45 Death is the ugly reality we all face. But how can we? The world has its false answers, but because Jesus is ‘the resurrection and the life’ we can face death with hope knowing as well his love and sympathy for us. All this we discover in the great miracle of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead.
Hebrews 11:1-22 Last week we spoke about faith. But what is faith? A positive outlook on life? A fuzzy feeling? An interest in religion? In this talk we’ll see what faith looks like and what this means for us.
Hebrews 10:19-39 Will you still trust Jesus in 10, 20, 30 years’ time? Many begin well, but don’t make it to the end. Careers develop, pressures build, and faith can drift to the margins. In the final section of Hebrews, we’re urged to keep going.
John 8:1-11 The gospel condemns those who society perceives as being ‘good’, but it rescues and transforms even the ‘worst’ of sinners
John 6:1-15, 25-40 Do you feel like you are constantly wanting or missing something? Jesus teaches us that true lasting satisfaction is found in him. He is the bread of life.
Hebrews 9:23-10:18 Asking around Canary Wharf, Jesus might be considered insignificant: a historical figure, a nice man, but offering little to help the mess in this world. Come to hear what Jesus’ followers learned: Jesus came to begin a new era of history, an era where people change, mess is finally put right, and that we can be a part of this.
John 4:4-30 Humanity is seeking all kinds of satisfaction in all kinds of places and people, but so many find the satisfaction they find doesn’t last and isn’t secure. Listen in as Jesus tells us about ultimate, lasting, cleansing satisfaction from and with him.
Hebrews 9:1-22 How do you deal with a guilty conscience? We saw that the new covenant provides the context for security. But what gives us confidence that the covenant is secure? When doubts linger and failures weigh on us, it’s easy to wonder whether that security could ever slip away. In this talk we look more closely at the foundation of the new covenant and why it offers real assurance for troubled consciences.
John 3:1-21 One of the best-known verses in the New Testament, John 3:16, begins with a ‘For’, connecting it to the previous verse: which is from the Old Testament! We can’t fully-understand, or fully-appreciate, the one without the other. John the gospel-writer introduces us to Nicodemus, a teacher of ‘the scriptures’ (what we now call the Old Testament) in order to tell us the good news of God’s love in sending Jesus, the Light of the World.
