We are invited to become part of God’s team, receiving from Him and passing on the blessings we receive but will we drop the baton?
Sermons from August 2018
Pete Robinson guides us through the next of our sporting theme: the shot put. In the shot put you need to obey two simple rules: get the angle right and throw it as hard as you can! In the Bible, Jesus calls his disciples to obey just one: “follow me”.
This week we look at the illustration of Dressage. Dressage means training. Jesus calls us to be disciples – learners. So, every believer is being trained. This training involves cooperation with Jesus – He does not force us to obey Him but we learn to listen to the prompting of the Holy Spirit. Chris seeks to apply this and outline practical ways to walk in step with the Spirit.
Jonathan preaches on Acts 1 vs 6-11.
God is working His purposes out through us and we are to be God’s witnesses throughout the world. It’s something we can’t do in our own strength, but we have the gift of the Holy Spirit in us to help us in this task.
Whilst the disciples were the starting 11 for this on-going mission, we are the current team.
