In the Belly of the Beast (Jonah 2)

By Jonah, Talks

Last week, we saw that Jonah wants no part of God’s mission, or God’s calling for his life, and he runs in the opposite direction from God’s calling. Now, we see Jonah singing from the belly of a fish. What are we to make of this odd story, and what does it say to us about Jonah’s heart, and our own?

Running From Grace (Jonah 1)

By Jonah, Talks

We’ve just looked at the book of Habakkuk, and we saw the prophet go from questioning God’s plans to praising his name. Now in the book of Jonah, we meet an even more reluctant prophet. Jonah wants no part of God’s mission, or God’s calling for his life, and he runs in the opposite direction from God’s calling. As Sam starts this series for us, this question is posed to each of us: Where are you tempted to run from God’s calling in your life?

From Silence to Song (Habakkuk 1:12-2:20)

By Habakkuk, Talks

Have you ever felt like God ignores your prayers? Have you wondered if he knows what’s best for your life? In the first part of this term, we’re going to be spending some time hearing from Habakkuk, a prophet who was forced to wrestle with these questions, as God’s response to his prayers seemed to be anything but what he expected or hoped for.

Wisdom and Weakness (Philippians 3:20-4:7)

By Philippians, Talks

What hope does God have for the weak? What wisdom is there in weakness? In God’s design, he has so much grace and beauty for those who are in need, and ultimately we can see God’s power in weakness through the cross of Christ. In this two-week holiday series, we will explore these ideas and see what blessings that God has for us. In this first talk, Jeremy shares about how wisdom and weakness can go together, from the end of Paul’s letter to the Philipians.

Jesus Makes No Sense (Matthew 13:1-23)

By Matthew, Talks

Jesus has just stepped down from the mountain (where he gave the Sermon on the Mount), and he shows us what he’s just been teaching about for three chapters: That he has the authority of God himself, over creation, and in his understanding of the Old Testament law. So in story after story, told in quick succession, we will see Jesus reversing people’s expectations of who God seeks out, reversing the curse of sin, and even reversing some of God’s own laws in the Old Testament, to show the new way that he was going to bring in through his kingdom, with the confronting glory of our all-powerful and all-merciful Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
