Jihad has been slightly less in the news lately, although is currently very much centre stage in certain African nations. We explore how jihadist groups are driven by an interpretation of Islamic eschatology. We discover how some threads of belief seem similar to Jewish and Christian ideas and where they part company.

Everyone believes something about the end of human life on earth. Even people who hold no religious beliefs believe something. Eschatology is the study of the end times.

This is a recording of me preaching at the Prayerhouse on 8th January 2023 following my return from Donbas in Ukraine just before Christmas. I share some experiences from the trip and we consider how God can seriously promise to comfort people who mourn using us as his means of delivery.

Every day local heroes like Svetislava risk their lives by driving into cities and towns on the front lines to evacuate families and groups living under artillery bombardment. Thousands have found their way to safer parts of Ukraine because of their sacrifice. Bakhmut is a small city which has taken on an unusual significance to the Russian army who have poured vast resources into retaining their hold of the territory. Join me as I have the huge privilege of riding alongside Svetislava on a mission to evacuate a family - a mum and dad, a young boy and an 18 month old little girl.
