In the concluding sermon to the series Building on Bedrock, Vijay looks at the believer's final eternal destination. He looks at the subject of heaven and the New Creation. Looking at Revelation 21-22, he explains that God's ultimate plans for the future is to restore and renew all of creation. Ultimately, the believer will live eternally in God's presence worshiping God and enjoying the riches of eternal life along with all those who trusted in God through Christ Jesus.

Bad things happen. Sometimes we go through very dark times. In them there is only one source of genuine comfort, the presence of the Good Shepherd with us. James continues his series in Psalm 23.

It's all in the mind - and to a large extent it is! In this, the third and final message in Florence's series, "Who Do You Think You Are?", she looks at the importance of the way we think and explores how a renewed mind leads to renewed thinking.

Continuing the theme of Christian Hope, Vijay looks at another great expectation. Unpacking Philippians 3.20-21, he observes that when Jesus Christ returns he will raise the bodies of the dead, reuniting soul and body. Jesus will give to those who have trusted him, bodies like his own glorious body. He points out that the literal resurrection of physical bodies is unique to the Christian vision of life after death.

Vijay looks at the subject of 'Hope'. He looks specifically at the one event that seems to define Christian Hope, the Second Coming of Jesus. Basing his sermon on Phil 3.20-21, he notes that Jesus inaugurates the 'Last Days' and the Kingdom of God when he first came to earth. Since his ascension, Jesus now rules the Church from heaven by means of the Holy Spirit. As he promised, he will one day return from heaven and fully establish his just and eternal Kingdom on earth. In light of Jesus' return, believers conduct themselves in this world like citizens of the heavenly kingdom.

The shepherd of Psalm 23 promises to be our guide. Where, why and how does he guide us? Find out as James continues his series "The Main Thing".

As part of the 'Foundations' series, Vijay now turns to the subject of Hope. In this Sunday's sermon, he looks at the universal experience and nature of hope. He concludes the sermon reminding us that God alone is big enough for the incredible hope that we have as children of God. All other basis for hope is inadequate. God alone will accomplish what he has set out to do.

Knowing that we are precious in God's sight is good news. Regardless of what other people think of us, or even how we view ourselves, the important thing to recognise is that we are valuable to our God and Saviour. As well as the need to be valued, we also need to feel secure and significant. Tune in to the second part of Florence's series Who Do You Think You Are? to learn what God says about these important aspects of our identity.

On this Easter Sunday, Vijay reflects on the meaning of Good Friday, Holy Saturday and Easter Sunday. Like the disciples, it feels like we are in the longest Saturday waiting for Easter. But, God's faithfulness assures us that Sunday is on its way.
