The gospel reading was the Prodigal Son. We found that there were two lost sons and that it is possible to rebel in the heart even when doing all the right things!
Our youth band played the music in the service today and it was a good to have them leading us.

Combined service of both congregations today before the AGM. Wendy preached on the Parable of the Fig Tree. What should we understand from what Jesus said to the people of his day about judgement and mercy? There was an opportunity to change.
There were two testimonies of knee pain being healed and as a result of those testimonies, someone else had shoulder pain go. Peter preached on "The Tears of the King" - Jesus weeping over Jerusalem.
As we start our journey through Lent this year, Torben challenged us to consider did we believe in the resurrection of Jesus. As Moses fasted for 40 days and returned with a covenant from God written in stone, so Jesus fasted for 40 days and brought the new covenant written by the Spirit on our hearts.
A prophecy was given in the service. The words were:
"Behold. You say you have not sinned but you do not know me. Those who do not know me are sinners for my life is not in them. Where my life is not in them, they are sinners. Give yourself up. Give yourself to my ways and I will fill you with living waters; I will fill you with my life; I will fill you to overflowing. I will lift your burdens. I will lift your sin. I will open your eyes to eternal life. I will open your eyes to my life."
As we continue with the Big Story of God, we are taking three sessions to learn about the Beatitudes - a significant teaching Jesus gave. What are the Beatitudes? Is there an order or logic to Jesus' presentation? What do "poor in spirit" and "mourn" mean here?
