Psalm 105:1-9; Gen. 12; 15-16; 21-22; 24; Rom. 4:13-25; John 3:16. The call of Abram and covenant with him, marks a new beginning in the unfolding story of God’s grace. The Lord’s purpose in blessing him is to bless all peoples on earth. There are many twists and turns as the patriarch keeps taking matters […]
Psalm 148; Genesis 6-9; Hebrews 11:7; Luke 6:46-49 Today we celebrate the birth of a child, the love of family and God’s goodness in Creation. As we share bread and wine, we give thanks again for Christ’s redeeming work. The story of ‘Noah’s Ark’ is often told to children but perhaps in ways which overlook […]
Psalm 104; Genesis 1-3; Romans 8:18-28; John 1:1-4 Genesis 1:1 proclaims that the story which unfolds in the Bible, the story we find ourselves in, is God’s! However we interpret the opening chapters of Genesis, it’s important to recognise that what God created was (and is!) good – even though damaged by sin. The Bible […]
James 2: 14 – 17. Report on the trip to the Hope and Kindness Charity working in Kosele in Kenya.
Luke 24: 36 to 53 With death itself overcome, Jesus shows His disciples there are no barriers to His risen presence. In case they still think they’re seeing an apparition, He eats fish in front of their wide eyes! As with the two on Emmaus Road, Jesus again shows how His death and resurrection fulfil […]
Luke 24: 13 to 35. We can try to imagine how disconsolate and bewildered Cleopas and friend were feeling as they trudged wearily to Emmaus. Jesus gently draws alongside and helps them to understand the ‘things that have happened’ (v.18). As they walk and talk the fire of hope is rekindled within them. When Jesus […]
Luke 24:1 – 12. We open our hearts and minds once again to the life-transforming message that “He is not here; he has risen!” Wonderful news! Jesus is alive and death, the ‘last enemy’ (1 Cor. 15:26), has been conquered. This hope is born out of suffering, loss and despair – which is a message […]
Luke 19:28 – 20:8. Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem marks the beginning of a tumultuous week! The Romans are nervous, Pharisees prickly and after Jesus upsets things in the temple enemies among the religious leaders determine to have Him killed. It’s all a question of authority – hence the discussion about John the Baptist. As the […]
Luke 18: 9-34. Again Jesus challenges assumptions and priorities – here specifically those things we rely on for self-worth and salvation. He draws a striking contrast between the Pharisee and the tax collector, uses infants to challenge adult pride and finally tells a morally upright religious man to give away everything he owns. Jesus is […]
Luke 15: 1-32. These wonderful parables belong together as stories of lost things being found – of coming home. What we sometimes miss is the theme of exuberant joy and celebration which also unites them. Shepherd, woman and father all say: ‘Rejoice with me’, urging others to share their excitement. When somebody is ‘found’ by […]
