Caversham Baptist Church

Jude challenges the church to address an urgent issue. The behaviour of some people in the church did not match-up to what Jesus taught. Christ died for us, to cleanse and forgive us. We can’t continue to live our lives as we did before we put our trust in him. God wants to perform a work in our lives; to transform us. Let’s search our own hearts and listen to what God is saying, are there areas o...

Janet Quarry outlines the main and tragic events in Joseph’s life. Whilst Joseph had no control over these events and what happened to him as a result, he did have control over how he responded to them. God promises to be with us, we don’t need to be defined by our upbringing, by the events and circumstances imposed upon us – instead, we can allow God to bring about good in all circumstances, to m...

Richard challenges us to retain our focus on the things of God as described by Paul in Phil 4v8-9. Social media and other commercial organisations understand the value of our attention and treat it like a commodity. We need to learn how to retain focus and not allow our attention to be won by unhelpful distractions. When we focus on God and pay him attention, we are aligned with him; learn to see...

Claire talks to us about her work at Guinebor 2 hospital in Chad as well as a short devotion from Proverbs 3 v 5-6.

On Trinity Sunday, Revd Ian Millgate explores the doctrine of the trinity using Paul's final greetings from 2 Corinthians 13 v 14, that we often call The Grace and use as a benediction - the Grace of the Lord Jesus Christ; the Love of God and the Fellowship of the Holy Spirit.

Jesus comes alongside Cleopas and his walking partner as they journeyed back to Emmaus from Jerusalem. Their eyes were kept from recognising the risen Jesus. They had not understood what the prophets had said about the messiah. At the end of the walk, they invited Jesus to stay and share a meal, where their eyes were opened. Have you invited Jesus into your life? Have you been walking with Jesus f...

Revd Neville Holland gives a biblical definition of the church and sets out three key aspects of Jesus' church - it makes disciples, it moves in power and is full of grace & truth. We are the church, let's continue to grow in him, expressing these characteristics.

Revd Steve and Anita Prince share how being secure in Christ enables us to navigate the most challenging circumstances. Our security comes from knowing we are a child of God, adopted into his family; we have a glorious destiny, far beyond any suffering we endure here on earth; we have a glorious hope, a certainty of our future; God is working in all things together for our good and to reveal Jesus...
