1-2 Samuel is all about Israel’s king and the kingdom. Yet it begins not with royalty or anybody influential, but with one Israelite woman unable to have children. Why does it begin here? In this sermon we look at Hannah’s problem, Hannah’s prayer, and Hannah’s people in 1 Samuel 1:1-2:11.

One way the Bible guides us in understanding who Jesus is and his significance for us is by showing us that he occupies all three of the important Old Testament offices: the offices of prophet, priest, and king. In this week’s sermon we consider what it means that Christ is our King.

What does it mean that Christ is our Priest? In this sermon we consider this important question.

How does the Bible present Jesus to us? In the Old Testament, there were three significant roles that God appointed people to serve in: the prophet, the priest, and the king. When we get to the New Testament it becomes clear that Jesus occupies all three role. He is our Prophet, our Priest, and our King. What does this mean? In this sermon we look at Jesus as our Prophet.

In the final of the Ten Commandments, God instructs us not to covet. What does it mean to covet? And why is it so serious? In this sermon we look briefly at these issues.

In the Ninth of the famous Ten Commandments, God regulates our speech by commanding us to “not bear false witness against our neighbour.” In this sermon we look at what the boundary is, why God gives it, and what hope there is for those who stray beyond it.

Almost every human being would agree that stealing is wrong, even the person who steals for a living is offended when stolen from. But what does the Bible class as stealing? And why does God treat it with such significance? In this sermon we consider these questions.

Continuing in our series on the Ten Commandments, we look at the command, “You shall not commit adultery.” What is adultery, and why does God forbid it? We consider these issues in this sermon.

“You shall not murder” is perhaps the commandment we find easiest to rush past. But what does the Bible consider to be murder? And what does this command teach us about God? In this sermon we consider these questions.

The Fifth Commandment is all about showing honour, particularly in relation to authorities God has placed in our lives. Who are we to honour? And what does that look like? In this sermon we consider these questions.
