Community Church Putney Sermons

The design of the Tabernacle, with its table and bread, speak to us of God’s invitation to constantly feed on the presence of Christ.

The design of the Tabernacle, with its table and bread, speak to us of God’s promise of His presence, protection and provision.

The design of the Tabernacle, with its table and utensils, speak of God’s hospitality and invitation into fellowship with Him. 

Jem Howe preaches from Exodus 25:23-30 on how God has prepared a table for us.

Putting the Law ( and later Aarons’s rod and the Manna)  into the ark recalled their past, so as to remind them to keep obeying and depending on God in the future. 

The Tabernacle teaches us to expect, and teaches us how to seek, God’s holy presence.

The Tabernacle teaches us to put atonement through sacrifice at the heart of our worship.

Jem Howe continues our series, I Will Dwell Among Them, reflecting on what the design of the Tabernacle means for us. In this message,  we consider what the making of the Ark means for Christians today. 

God had a pattern for building the Tabernacle and Temple, likewise, He has a pattern for building His New Covenant house - the church.

God dwelt in a special way in the Tabernacle and Temple, but these foreshadow His dwelling in His people - the church

God provides for each of us so as to contribute to His work and the building of His church

Nev Floyd begins a new teaching series entitled 'I Will Dwell Among Them' where we will be exploring God’s design for His church and our worship by using the design of the Tabernacle as inspiration. Today we focus on Exodus 25:1-9.

This week, the last in this series, we’re reflecting on the promise of reward for faithful stewardship. Today, our theme is: A good steward weighs the eternal value of daily choices to maximise their investment in God's kingdom.

Good stewards of God’s gifts understand that while their salvation is secure, their eternal rewards depend on how they faithfully invest the time, talents, and treasures He gives to them.

Good stewards of God’s gifts understand that they are eternally secure because of the foundation of Christ, and they serve God from that unshakable position.

Matt Beaney concludes our short series on Stewardship. We are rewarded, or lose rewards, in response to our godly stewardship of God's gifts. So let's invest our time, talents and treasures wisely.  

Generosity is an important fruit of understanding God's grace; it transforms us from accumulators into conduits of His blessings.

God’s design is that money is acquired, primarily, through work or the generosity of those who work.

Stewarding our money and possessions begins by choosing to see these things as gifts from God.

The design of the Tabernacle, with its table and bread, speak to us of God’s invitation to constantly feed on the presence of Christ.

Matt shares from Matthew 6. Let's seek first the Kingdom - listen to Jesus - and so become good stewards of the money He entrusts to us.

As stewards, we understand that our time is God’s time and is to be offered to Him for His purposes.

To steward our time, it’s important that we clarify what’s important, and use methods and habits that help us to steward our time usefully.

Time is created by God, and the units of days and weeks are to be stewarded wisely for both work and rest.

Phil continues our stewarding series, reflecting on what do we do with our time, that God has given us?
