Every day we have opportunities to reflect the love of Christ—in our homes, workplaces, neighbourhoods and church family. Our words matter, but our actions often speak even more clearly. As D L Moody once wrote:
“The only Bible some people will ever read is the life of a Christian.” D L Moody
So, in every situation we encounter, why not ask yourself, “What would Jesus want me to do now?” And then do it.

| Today’s message: | Part 5 – Samaritan tyle – loving the lost |
| Our reading: | Luke 10: 25-37 |
| Speaker: | Simon Downing |
Jesus taught that our neighbour is not simply someone who lives nearby, but anyone whose need God places before us. D. L. Moody reminds us where true Christian witness begins:
“The world does not understand theology or dogma, but it understands love and sympathy.” — Dwight L. Moody
| Today: | Our monthly family service | |
| Title: | Transfigured! | |
| Our reading: | Mark 9:2-8 | |
| Speakers: | Simon Downing |
This week we celebrate the glory of Christ revealed on the mountain of Transfiguration. Yet we also remember those whose lives have been shaken by tragedy. In every circumstance—whether on the mountain or in the valley—our hope rests in the God who is present, faithful, and at work.
As Eric Liddell once said:
“Circumstances may appear to wreck our lives and God’s plans, but God is not helpless among the ruins.”

| Today’s message: | Part 4 – Confidence in the gospel |
| Our reading: | Luke 19:1-10 |
| Speaker: | Simon Downing |
In a world where headlines can leave us anxious and tomorrow often seems uncertain, the confidence to follow Jesus doesn’t come from knowing exactly what lies ahead, but from knowing the unchanging Lord who walks with us every step of the way.
“Real true faith is man’s weakness leaning on God’s strength.”
— D. L. Moody
| Series: | Preparing for revival |
| Today’s message: | Part 3 – The Father’s heart for the lost |
| Our reading: | Luke 15:1-7 |
| Speaker: | Simon Downing |
As we celebrate Father’s Day and reflect on Jesus’ parable of the lost sheep, we are reminded that behind every act of grace stands the loving heart of our Heavenly Father. As Billy Graham once wrote:
“God’s love is unchanging. He loves us when we deserve it and when we don’t. He seeks us when we are near and when we are far away.”
Do you really understand just how much God loves you?
