The Sign of Immanuel

Graham leads an all age service through Isaiah 7, The Sign of Immanuel.

Mid-Career Calling

It was during a period of national instability and insecurity that God appeared to Isaiah.  Isaiah saw the Lord, he acknowledged his need for cleansing and received it; he heard God’s call, was ready to respond and went.
Isaiah’s assignment wasn’t easy, but it was divine. God sends us into hard places, not to guarantee success, but to obey his voice.

Bubbles and Noise

Revd Steve Prince explores how we can identify and manage the noise (those things that rob and distract us from our peace) we seem to constantly face in our daily lives. Revd Steve explores the parallels he finds in professional football at Reading FC. The challenge we’re left with is “How do you become still before God?”

The Lord speaks, what's he saying to you?

God speaks with passion because he's loving. God speaks against hollow religion because he desires our hearts. God speaks a call to return, offering cleansing and restoration. God speaks a warning because he is merciful and just. What in particular is he speaking to you about and how will you respond?

He was there all along

After Jesus' resurrection, two of his disciples were walking along the road to Emmaus, sharing their grief of the loss of Jesus. Jesus came along-side and journeyed with them - but they did not recognise him. Revd Colin reminds us that even though the disciples failed to recognise Jesus, he was still there - with them, ministering to them, working for them. Jesus' presence and ministry was not dependent on the disciples seeing him, feeling him or knowing he was there.

Jesus and a lost story

Graham goes through Luke 23 v50-56 and 24 v1-12, showing the referrences and disbelief in the resurrection of Jesus.

Palm Sunday

Graham goes through Luke 19 v28-44, the Palm Sunday story.

From blindness to salvation

Colin goes through Luke 18 v 31 - Luke 19 v1-10, showing how Jesus heals the physically and spiritually blind.

The prodigal son

Revd Graham Coldman sets the context for the moving story of the prodigal son. Jesus introduces the story with two illustrations, the first about a lost sheep and then another about a lost coin. The prodigal son is really a story of two lost sons and is full of outrageous events. The big challenge for us is to consider where are we in that story and our relationship with the father. Father God never gives up on us, are we ready to be found?
