My Cup Overflows: the LORD is my Portion

31/10/2021

Preacher: Ian Hardcastle [Texts: Ps 23; Ps 16; Rev 21:1-6; Mark 12:26-27]

Today, Ian brings to a close the series on Psalm 23 as we consider God's name: Yahweh my Portion and my Cup. We find that David had confidence in God for all he needed in this life and an inheritance in the afterlife. In the New Covenant we have the same hope in Christ. Today is All Saints Sunday and the theme from Ps 23 flows into a consideration of the Communion of Saints and what that means for us.

'Have you filled a bucket today?

24/10/2021

Preacher: Siew Mei Ng [John 4]
"Did you know that you carry an invisible bucket with you all the time? Yep. That's right, an invisible bucket. The bucket is full of water. When the bucket is full, you feel good about yourself and you feel happy and have good thoughts. But when your bucket is empty, you feel sad, mad and maybe lonely."

Although Siew Mei intended this as a children's message, we thought it is so good, that we could all benefit from it. Now do listen to Siew Mei on the video below.

Preacher: Bishop Ross Bay [Text: Mark 10:35-45]
Jesus told his disciples that leaders in the kingdom would serve those they lead and that he came to seek and save the lost. Bishop Ross considers this in the light of our current pandemic.

Here you can watch the video of him reading the gospel and preaching. The written copy of his sermon is available below the video.

The LORD who makes us holy

10/10/2021

Preacher: Helen Hardcastle [Ps 23:5; Ezekiel ; Hebrews 12:7-14, 28-29]
In the Psalm, David sings of the LORD anointing his head with oil - sanctifying him. This relates to one of the titles of God: Jehovah-inKaddesh. Holiness is a big topic, but Helen tackles it in the sermon and gives us positive application for ourselves.

Psalm 23: God our Righteousness

3/10/2021

Preacher: Ian Hardcastle [Texts: Jeremiah 23:1-6; Genesis 15:1-6; Romans 4:1-5, 22-25]
Psalm 23 speaks of the Lord leading us in paths of righteousness. This relates to one of his titles: The Lord our Righteousness. Ian explores this Divine/Messianic title and how we come to understand the righteousness which comes through faith.

Was it helpful to understand righteousness as a right relationship with God and other people?
Did this teaching confirm or deepen your understanding of the righteousness we have in Christ rather than earning it by good works?
How are you allowing God to lead you on the “paths of righteousness?”
Maybe you find yourself off the path in some way? If so, how are you allowing God (and perhaps someone close to you) to help bring you back?
