Jesus interrupts business as usual. As the coming King he overturns the Temple tables, he turns everything upside down and he continues to do so today!

'Much can be revealed to us in the desert, if we are brave enough to journey through to it, and this lent we have an opportunity to journey through the desert and take the time to re-orient ourselves towards God.'

Revd Tony Miles - Ash Wednesday 2021: Psalm 51:1-17; Matthew 6:1-6; 16-21 by Methodist Central Hall, Westminster

Alison Bryan - A Reflection on Healing Ministry by Methodist Central Hall, Westminster

A remarkable feature of the pandemic has been the willingness of so many people to choose limitations for the sake of others, for those we love and for perfect strangers. NHS workers and many others have given themselves to serve. For all of us plans have been put on hold, freedoms curtailed, self-interests temporarily laid aside.

This battle against evil forces that controls, damages and destroys people is still on. And the followers of Jesus are called to be part of that battle.

Hear the powerful words of Jesus for you today – Come, follow me, now is the time, the kingdom of God has come near. Repent and believe the good news. Are you brave enough to see the light? Are you brave enough to be it?

Revd Dr Howard Mellor - 'Come and See!’ 1 Samuel 3:1-11; John 1:43-51 by Methodist Central Hall, Westminster

Sermon preached on the 75th Anniversary of the first meeting of the United Nations General Assembly in our Church Building.

As we enter 2021, let us do so with the joy and confidence of Simeon and Anna knowing God walks with us into the new year and also goes ahead of us. And let us offer to all the ultimate hope and the new life of God that we too have seen in Jesus. Amen.
