Have you ever been angry at God's compassion towards those who you think don't deserve it? Tune in to part 5 of Florence's series on Jonah for Grown-ups and discover some of the factors which gave rise to Jonah's anger. Perhaps you'll be able to relate to some of them!
In these ongoing 'Foundations' Series, Vijay looks at the subject of Spiritual Warfare. In today's sermon, he suggests that the believer can expect supernatural evil opposition pushing towards destructive attitudes and actions. He then outlines the 3 enemies (the devil, 'flesh' and 'world') that form the combined assault against the child of God.
Continuing the 'Foundations' series, Vijay looks at the role of suffering in forming holiness. Fleshing out several passages in 1 Peter, Vijay looks at how God uses the fires of our suffering to refine our character and bring us to the place where we can.
In this sermon, Vijay expands the meditation he gave the church at the church's AGM. Followers of Jesus are marked by a number of things. In John 1:35-51 we see 3 'I's that mark them. Disciples are 1) inclusive, loving and accepting all they meet; 2) they invite others to meet Jesus and 3) they expect God to increase their numbers and maturity.
Jonah FINALLY did what God told him and went to Nineveh with a message of judgement and - guess what? The people all cried out to God and he had mercy on them! Tune in now to listen to Florence's fourth message in her series "Jonah for Grown-ups".
Iain introduces a new topic concerning Christ and his cross. He shows how the love of Christ shown on the cross should constrain us to live well for Him.
As part of the 'Foundations' series, Vijay looks specifically at the subject of holiness and the Christian Life. God calls his disciples to social holiness expressed in a commitment to seeing his justice and goodness established on earth. When the Son of God became man, he gave up his privilege and advantage as God and announced that the Kingdom of God had come. We, as disciples of Jesus, must similarly be willing to let go of privilege and advantage to see God's justice and goodness extended to the whole world.
We come to the end of the life of Job and discover that he lived happily ever after (well, sort of). In addition to getting a new perspective on God and himself, Job experiences new relationships, new prosperity, and a new lease of life.
Continuing the 'Foundation' series. Vijay looks at how the outworking of our relationship with God results in our personal holiness. This morning's mediation is from Philippians 2.3-4. Vijay explains that a believer's personal holiness is expressed when all their conversation and conduct demonstrates concern and consideration for others.
Do difficult experiences always change us? Some would argue that they do, but whether this change is for better or worse depends on how we respond. The prophet Jonah found himself in a hard, dark place. Find out how he responded to his unpleasant circumstances by tuning in to part three of Florence's latest message on Jonah for Grown-ups: a story of God's outrageous grace.
Vijay continues the 'Foundation' series this morning looking at the ninth foundational block, the Christian Life. The disciple of Jesus is called to be holy just as God is holy. In today's sermon, Vijay looks at the OT roots of holiness. The lesson we learn from God's call to Israel is that holiness is an outworking of the believer's relationship with a Holy God. This relationship produces in us holiness both in personal conduct and the way we relate to a wider world.
Iain concludes his series about seeing God by looking at Isaiah ch6. In this chapter he talks about the practical aspects of ensuring God is being seen in our lives.
Following the dedication of two babies this morning, Vijay preaches from Hebrews 12.2. He reminds us that faith emerges and matures in a person as they keep the of their lives focus fixed on Jesus.
Following the testimony of several folk who are baptised this morning, Vijay preaches from John 10:10. He explains that our first impulse is to make sense of the world we are born into. Like sheep we seek to be guided into understanding the world. The claim of the Christian faith is that life will never make sense to us until we relate positively to God. We come to that relationship by following Jesus, the giver of abundant life.
Job had asked God many questions but, instead of answering them, God questions Job. The end result is that, while Job doesn't have his questions answered, he meets God in a new way.
In this sermon, Vijay continues with his 'foundation' series looking at the spiritual discipline of confession. He explains that in confession we admit our deepest failures, weakness and sins to God and to trusted individuals in the Body of Christ. The purpose of this regular discipline is that we might experience God's grace, forgiveness and healing.
With the world about us in meltdown at the public scandals and dishonesty that are so evident, Christians must hold true to Jesus' claim that we must be salt and light in the world.
As part of the 'Foundation' series, Vijay speaks about prayer in this sermon. He explains that prayer is conversation with God, the result of which brings transformation to us and the world around us.
Are you currently on the run from God? Do you prefer to go your own way rather than His? Then watch out! Like Jonah, you could find yourself immersed in a storm of your own making which has far-reaching consequences, not only for you, but for other people. Tune in to the second part of Florence's message, Jonah for Grown-ups: a story of God's outrageous grace.
Continuing the 'foundation' series, Pastor Vijay looks at Bible Study as a Spiritual Discipline. Bible Study is that discipline of the spiritual life where the follower of Jesus intentionally engages the mind and heart with Scripture in such a way that allows Scripture to form and transform them.
In this short all-age Easter sermon, Pastor Vijay outlines some of the ways people responded to the risen Jesus. Like today many believe and many struggle to believe. But, the invitation to trust him remains the same today as it about 2000 years ago.
Christian maturity comes from following the balanced course of the spiritual disciplines. The 2 dangers that threaten to destroy the spiritual life are legalism and license. The path of the disciplines seeks to avoid both in the strength of the Holy Spirit.
Pastor Vijay explains the central significance of the second ordinance, Communion. Communion is the rite of the Church by which we remember the significance of what Jesus did on the cross for the world. It is a reminder that one day we will see him again.

Ever feel like doing your own thing and going your own way, even though this conflicts with God's purpose for you? If so, you're not alone. One of God's servants, the prophet Jonah, shows us that running from God is the worst thing you can do. Even when things appear to be going well, Jonah's experiences let us know that favourable circumstances do not necessarily mean you are living right. Tune in for the first part of Florence's new series - Jonah for Grown-ups: a story of God's outrageous grace.
Marking our first year of planned giving towards the building project, Vijay preaches from Deuteronomy 1.6-7: 'you have remained on this mountain long enough, now resume the journey'. He reminds us that the call to discipleship is a call to be willing to take holy risks for God. Faith is an invitation to abandon our need for certainty. It is an invitation to trust God in the absence of such certainty. Stepping out of our comfort zones always seems risky. But, the truth is that our unwillingness to do so poses the greater risk to our discipleship.
Colin takes a Christian perspective on the subject of employment - how should we approach our work, whether it is paid work or time spent on God's work
Ever thought failure was final? Think again! When one of Jesus' disciples turned back to his Lord after messing up, Jesus restored him to a position greater than he'd ever known. Tune in to this week's message on Peter: a picture of restoration.
James begins a new series, "Why?", on the life of Job. In the first message, we learn some important lessons on how to deal with life's tough circumstances by looking at how Job responded when his world fell apart.
The story of Christmas for Joseph is a story of 4 surprises. The first is some devastating news of Mary, his fiance's pregnancy. The second, is a strange angelic visitor with a message from God. The third, is a remarkable message that Mary's child is conceived by God and he will save the world from their sins. The fourth surprise is the most staggering of all - that the birth of Jesus shows that God is Immanuel, God with us - a God who is commited to the world in love. He is not far from us, but among us.
Christians have an incredible message of hope in a broken and hurting world. There is no embarrassment that Jesus is the reason for Christmas. And his message is the only hope for the world today.
How would you like some biblical perspective on your busy life? Martha of Bethany was a busy person but, although her busyness was out of necessity, it was also out of control and out of order. Pick up some practical tips when you listen in to this week's message on Martha: a picture of busyness.
Following on from Pete Henderson's testimony this morning, Vijay highlights lessons learned from the life of Joseph. In all things (our commendations & betrayals, memorable & unmemorable moments, triumphs & tragedies), God works to bring about good in the lives of his children.
James concludes his series on "The Crazy Claims of Christ". Moving from John's gospel to Revelation, we listen to the words of the glorified Jesus Christ as He underlines these great claims.

Vijay continues his foundations of the Christian faith series. In this first of two part study on the Gifts of the Holy Spirit, he looks at the importance of the Gifts for the health of the Church.
