We are living in uncertain and perilous times. Each day we are unsure about what will take place next. Hope is all we have. That hope comes about as we connect with God and his Word. As a church – as individuals, do we give hope? Do we inspire hope?

Join us this January and February as we explore the Bible and the hope it gives to a dying world.

04 February

Sermon Topic: How to Get Rid of Your Guilt

 

Speaker: Elder Leslene Peat-Brown

 

Summary: Sometimes we wrestle with the guilt of past mistakes and struggle to forgive ourselves. Peter after denying Jesus also struggled with guilt but was restored by Jesus. Will you allow Jesus to restore you?

11 February

Sermon Topic: Born Again

 

Speaker: Pastor Jesse Samuel

 

Summary: We cannot choose the family, environment, social class we are born into. The story of Nicodemus demonstrates the importance of being born of both the water and the Spirit. Christ gives us the opportunity to be born again. Have you been born again?

Sermon Topic: Knowing is not Enough

 

Speaker: Pastor Royston Smith

 

Summary: The five foolish virgins knew about the coming of the bridegroom but were not prepared. Are you prepared to meet Jesus?

25 February

Sermon Topic: Displaced Mercy

Guest Speaker: Pastor Jesse Samuel

Summary: We all wrestle with different challenges in our lives. We often pray that the struggle will be over but have you ever wondered whether God sometimes wrestles with us to keep us connected to Him?
