Principles of Faith

27/6/2021

 
Preacher: Ian Hardcastle  [Texts: Mark 5:21-43; Lamentations 3:23-33] 
We see Jesus' authority over chronic sickness and dead as he heals the woman and raises Jairus' daughter.  We also learn some principles of faith from these two incidents.

Authority

20/6/2021

 
Preacher: Ian Hardcastle  [Texts: Mark 4:35-41; Job 38:1-11]
They are in a boat in heavy seas.  The men are afraid, but Jesus simply orders the wind and the waves to be quiet - and they are!  What does that say about Jesus?  But then he seemed to have expected more of the disciples - what should they have done?

Paul's Motivations

13/6/2021

 
Preacher: Ian Hardcastle  [Text: 2 Corinthians 5:1-17]
When Paul wrote his second letter to the Corinthians he had been through serious traumas.  He lists the many floggings, dangers and perils later in this letter and specifically in the first chapter he wrote of a time when it was so bad he despaired of life itself, but God delivered him.  In Chapter five, he shares some ideas about suffering and dying.  In the midst of it we find nuggets of hope and indicators of the motivations which kept him going.  Which of these impacts you?  Take some time to explore it more and build it into your life as a strong motivator for Godly living and service.
