Are you feeling burdened, overwhelmed or guilty for the sins and bad things you've done in your life- Or perhaps you don't consider yourself a sinner at all--Today's sermon looks at the guilt of sin, the power of sin, and the consequences of sin and how Jesus saves us from all three--We return to Matthew chapter 1 and look at verse 21 under 3 headings and what they mean to each of us--1. Jesus saving from sin-2. Jesus saving His people-3. Calling His name Jesus

Today's service is the first in a series as we approach Christmas.-We read of the miraculous conception of Jesus the Saviour and we consider two responses to this- -1- Mary's delight as she praises God for the gift of a child. -2- Joseph's dilemma as he doubts Mary and is fearful how to handle the unexpected news of her pregnancy. -Despite what would have been a scandal in that culture, instead we see God intervening and His great plan of redemption at work.

In this sermon we look at what happened on the Mount of Transfiguration and consider 3 points--1- The Inner Circle-2- Moses - Elijah-3- Subject Discussed

Who are you following in your life- What does it mean to follow Jesus- Do you have to be good enough- Is it all plain sailing- -Today we find out the answers to these questions and discover what it means to be a follower of Jesus. We find out that it is costly to believers who have to deny themselves and pick up their crosses daily. However, believing and following Jesus is the most important thing you will do in your life. Watch-Listen to find out why...

Tonight we consider a solemn passage from Scripture which includes two men who rejected and ultimately opposed Jesus. The 3 points from the sermon serve as a serious warning of the consequences of rejecting Jesus. We are encouraged instead to embrace Jesus and not oppose Him.--1- Herod - A man who wanted to see Jesus-2- Pilate - A man not wanting to see Jesus-3- Both men who opposed Jesus

Today we remember the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ our Saviour. This is a sermon to all the senses in that we hear the Word of God but we also see, smell, touch and taste the symbols of Jesus' body in the symbolic broken bread and wine. We can sometimes dwell on the enormity of sin in our lives and feel so unworthy but we are reminded that salvation is not based on our worthiness. God has a solution to sin and the remedy is faith in Jesus Christ who died for you.

Tonight's service we consider the meaning behind the symbols of bread and wine as we prepare to take the sacrament of the Lord's Supper next weekend.

Today is our thanksgiving service where we give thanks to God for the blessings of the harvest. We consider Psalm 50 which talks about God being not only holy and powerful but that He is our provider. We discover that if we give God his rightful place and worship Him with thanksgiving, he promises to be there and to deliver us in days of trouble.
