A Biblical View of Marriage
A Biblical View of Marriage – Genesis chapter 2, verses 18 to 25 Marriage was designed as a good gift from God, yet our brokenness so often makes for trouble, fights, disagreements and tension. Women were created from the rib of man to be beside him, not from his head to top him, nor from his feet to be trampled by him, but from under his arm to be protected by him, near to his heart to be loved by…

A Biblical View of Man
A Biblical View of Man – Genesis chapter 2, verses 4 to 7 Where do we find purpose and identity? Without the worldview of the Bible many no longer have a solid place to find it. All that is left is subjective, saying “What, is the chief purpose of Man? To live out your truth and enjoy life till you die, for there is nothing after.” Be yourself! 4 This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they…
The Handiwork of God
The Handiwork of God – Genesis chapter 1 verses 6 to 32 2 World Views Either “There is No God”, or “The God Who is There”. Many good arguments for God, who reveals Himself through telescope and microscope. The invisible has made Himself known by what is visible. “For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities – his eternal power and divine nature – have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made…” Day 2 Sky and Sea…
Let There Be Light
Let There Be Light – Genesis chapter 1 verses 2 to 5 2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. 3 And God said, ‘Let there be light,’ and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light ‘day’, and the darkness he called ‘night’. And there was evening, and there…

Pursuing the Infinite Worth of Christ
Pursuing the Infinite Worth of Christ – Philippians chapter 3 verses 7 to 9 Paul’s Concern: Some were teaching the believers in Christ Jesus that trusting in what He had done was not enough – “You need more!” “You need Jesus plus loads of rules and regulations to keep.” Paul would have none of this bondage – that was where he had been before he met Jesus. The Value of Knowing Christ: Verse 7 – the pursuit of knowing Jesus…
Worship
Worship – Hebrews chapter 10, verses 1 to 22 What makes worship possible? How do we know if worship has happened? So, what makes worship possible? – Jesus the Christ does, who said “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” How do we know if worship has happened? By faith, not by sight – “let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full…
Discipleship
Discipleship – Matthew’s Gospel chapter 28, verses 18-20 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.’ Matthew 28:18-20 New International…
Church Membership
Church Membership – A Mark of a Health Church – Acts 2:37-46, Matthew 16:16-20 We live in a day of negative views about any institution. God wants the church to be different, not an institution but His world-wide family. And more even than that – a local family, loving and caring, belonging together.
Corporate Prayer
Corporate Prayer – Nehemiah chapter 9 Corporate prayer simply means prayer together when we gather for worship. Prayer is not about it you, but Him. The only contribution we make is in no.4, we sin. He does the rest, all out of His great love and goodness.

Expository Preaching
Expository Preaching – 2 Timothy chapter 4 verses 1 to 8 What are the marks of Biblical preaching? We see 5 marks in this part of Paul’s letter to his young friend Timothy: 4 In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge: 2 preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage – with…
