Hello! Welcome to the second of a new mini-devotional series on Into the Pray to set us right for Monday mornings. City of Temples will resume as normal this coming Sunday.

May this encourage us all towards growing humility, increasing love o...

Hello! Thank you for joining in with these teaching sessions on Into the Pray . Today's session covers 1 Corinthians 14:6-25 and is a slightly longer recording due to the larger passaged covered.

Hello! Welcome and thank you for listening to Into the Pray! We thought we would take today's session to go through the new gospel tract that we've produced - "Repent now; He loves you." This is probably a gospel tract unlike any other you've come across before because we begin it with a "reality check" and an apology. Why would we need to apologise to those who...
