Just like the shepherds who hurried to see the newborn King and couldn’t wait to share the news, we too are called to pass on the wonder of what we’ve seen and heard. Perhaps use this quote from Charles Spurgeon to inspire you.
“The gospel is not a secret to be kept, but a story to be told.”— Charles Spurgeon

| Today’s message: | ‘Fruitfulness at Christmas’ | |
| Our reading: | Luke 2:52, Isaiah 11:1-10, John 15:1-17 | |
| Speaker: | Clive Bennett |
At Christmas, we celebrate the Light of the World — and we are called to reflect that light in the everyday moments of life. This Christmas be inspired by this quote from D L Moody:
“We are told to let our light shine, and if it does, we won’t need to tell anybody it does. Lighthouses don’t fire cannons to call attention to their shining—they just shine.”
As we celebrate the wonder of Jesus’ birth, let’s not forget why He came — to bring hope, forgiveness, and new life to a waiting world.
“The very purpose of Christ’s coming into the world was that He might offer up His life as a sacrifice for the sins of men. He came to die — that is the heart of Christmas.”
— Billy Graham

| Current series: | When God asks the question | |
| Today’s message: | ‘Who do you say I am?’ | |
| Our reading: | Isaiah 40:1-5, Matthew 16:13-20 | |
| Speaker: | Derek Robinson |
As we reflect on Isaiah’s call to prepare the way for the Lord, and Jesus’ question, “Who do you say I am?”, we are reminded that this is not just a question for the first disciples—but for each of us today.
Billy Graham summed this up neatly when he said, “The greatest question of all time is: ‘Who is Jesus?’ Your answer will determine your eternal destiny.”
Did you know that even faithful followers of Jesus experience fear? However, when fear takes hold, we’re called not to retreat—but to look to the One who commands the wind and waves.
“Fear can paralyse us and keep us from believing God and stepping out in faith. The devil loves a fearful Christian” – Billy Graham.
