The call to authenticity
Jesus has all we want, all we need – if only we would turn and open the door to let him in.
The call to life and endurance
It’s easy to slip into complacency and settle for an easy life – and miss out on the real blessings God has for us.
The call to holiness and truth
Discipleship is not about being right but facing the right way and walking in the right direction: towards Jesus.
The call to love and suffering
The first two of seven letters from Jesus to the church focus on encouragement in persecution and a warning in faithfulness.
The Living One
John’s incredible vision gives a simple message – Jesus is Lord – and a strong reassurance – the Lamb wins.
Jesus in Jerusalem
Thomas doubted and received reassurance. How should we, who do not have that physical assurance, handle our doubts?
‘He has been raised!’
We face the same choice as the women at the empty tomb: to remain in doubt and fear, or to go in faith and meet the risen Jesus.
What kind of King?
Who is Jesus? On Palm Sunday we remember his entry into Jerusalem on a donkey – what kind of King was he though?
Jesus is… worth it
What a waste! She used a whole jar of expensive perfume to anoint Jesus, and the other dinner guests were indignant.
Jesus is… coming back
Jesus will return at the end of the age. Keep watch, Jesus says – but how do we do this in practice?
Jesus is… the prophet
With his execution only days away, Jesus predicts the destruction of the temple and times of distress, wars and persecution – then and now.
Jesus is… challenging
Jesus challenges the mindset and privileges of the religious leaders of his day… and his disciples too… and us…
