reboot_fear // Genesis 20:1-18 by We Are Emmanuel

Lot's wife was turned into a pillar of salt when she looked back at Sodom during it's destruction. Tobi Ford-Western unpacks these two shocking stories of sin and judgement and what this teaches about a God of grace.

What do you think of when you hear, 'Soddom and Gomorrah'? How about 'Fire and Brimstone'? Guest preacher Glen Scrivener walks us through the difficult passage of Genesis 19:23-38, and shows us how this story is all of our stories. But that God's grace, mercy, and love is what is able to seize us from our sin addicted lives, and bring us into true freedom and family through Christ.

Here we have one of the high points of scripture on the subject of praying. Abraham intercedes for Sodom and Gomorrah – especially with Lot’s family in mind. Joel Virgo teaches us about the nature of intercession and how we can learn to pray. But more importantly we see a type of the great intercessor.

This passage finds Sarah and Abraham experiencing delay, doubt, and overall weakness as they wait for the fulfilment of God's promise of a Son. Joel helps us see how they, and we, find our fulfilment in God despite these very relatable, human conditions, in this continuation of our reboot preaching series focusing on 'fulfilment'

God introduces circumcision as a sign of covenant. What does this mean and what difference does it make to us? Matt Carvel continues our reboot_ series looking at the theme of 'obedience'.

Happy Father's Day! Moving on to Chapter 16 of Genesis, Abram is distracted and allows himself to be swayed from his focus on God... Leading to a big mistake. How can we keep from doing the same? Joel Virgo continues our reboot_ series looking at the theme of 'family'.

Despite having just won a great victory, Abram is still in angst over his childlessness. This is the biggest issue in his life. God answers him in his pain not with a physical solution, but with a promise. Tobi Ford-Western continues our reboot_ series looking at the theme of 'promise'.

Sometimes we can live as though our lives are dictated by the things that remain unfulfilled. We can feel like we will never be who we should, but God has come down to us and through faith in Him - everything changes. Matt Carvel continues our reboot_ series looking at the theme of 'faith'.

What is priesthood, and why do we need Jesus as our great high priest? Stephen Dawson continues our reboot_ series looking at the theme of priesthood.
