Jesus: Son of God; Glorified; Empowerer

8/5/2022

Preacher: Ian Hardcastle [Texts: John 10:22-30; Acts 9:36-32; Revelation 7:9-17]
As we continue to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus, we review his teaching and understand him to be the Son of God who holds us safe; he is glorified by the angels and he empowers his church.

Transfiguration: From Glory to Glory

13/3/2022

Preacher: Ian Hardcastle [Texts Luke 9:28-36; Philippians 3:17-4:1]

Today our main reading is the account of the Transfiguration. Why does this come in Lent? Perhaps because Lent is a preparation for Easter and the Transfiguration tells who Jesus is, and gives us confidence that He is working in us to sanctify from glory to glory and offers a foretaste of future glory

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.

Showing forth Christ

3/1/2021

Preacher: Ian Hardcastle [Texts: Ephesians 3:1-12; Matthew 2:1-12]
Epiphany - the Manifestation or showing of Christ. The Wise men were the first gentiles to come to see him. They received some revelation and followed the light they had to find Christ and give him their best. Should we do less? Paul says the Church is to show the wisdom of God to the heavenly powers. How might we do that?

Changed from Glory to Glory

8/3/2020

Preacher: Ian Hardcastle [Text: Matthew 17:1-9]
The strength of the Apostles' witness to the Transfiguration challenges us to take seriously this revelation of the nature of Jesus of Nazareth. Do we try to domesticate Jesus to be a good teacher or an amazing prophet? Peter headed in that direction and was corrected by a voice from heaven! Yet even as we accept him for who he says he is, we find that he will change us from glory to glory into his likeness.
