The book of Judges is one that is exceedingly relevant and helpful to us today, even if hard to see at first glance. These 4 Judges are commended for their faith here, and they are such great testimonies to the power of God in a spiritually barren land.

Rahab is the most unusual entry in this catalogue of faith heroes. She is not what you would expect from a hero of faith. But then again, are any of us?

What ought our response to the risen Jesus be?

After Jesus entered Jerusalem, he wept - because they did not recognise Him! Have you recognised Him for who He truly is?

God gave the Israelite people victory over Jericho before the battle even began. Therefore, the spiritual battle of worship which they exercised was all done by faith.

A remarkable moment in which God’s power is displayed is at the Red Sea. One writer says ‘what for the believer is the way of life is for the unbeliever the way of death’. How can we find hope in a seemingly impossible situation?

The Passover is an extremely significant moment in the storyline of Biblical Redemption; Moses was required to have faith that the blood was sufficient to protect the people, do we have that same faith in the sufficiency of Christ’s sacrifice?

The source of endurance: seeing the invisible through the eyes of faith!

A sermon on the need to see the hand of God in mighty power in this day. God always works, and for this we should be thankful, but is there a place for us to ask Him for more?

Moses’ choice shows us Christ!

The realities of living by faith in the family can be difficult, but here Amram and Jochebed are commended for their faith in the way in which they cared for Moses while he was still a baby.

What better way to start a new year than to remind ourselves of Scripture’s timeless truths - the extent of God’s love in seeking us and saving us!

The way in which Christ submitted Himself to the law of God and thus through perfect obedience was able to be out perfect sacrifice and substitute.

Who is Jesus really?

The glory of God as beheld by the angels was reflected to the shepherds! That same glory has been revealed to us, in order that we might return it to God Himself.

The hard heartedness of man, we will not listen! The Word of God is the most important message in the world and we must listen to it.

Joseph’s life was a life lived by faith in the sovereign purpose of God, and he is not only an example to us in this but also he is a forerunner and a ‘type’ of the Lord Jesus, meaning that his story has much to teach us.

Jacob blesses Ephraim & Manasseh and leans upon his staff. What makes Jacob do this knowingly? It is his faith. We consider here faith in later life, and also the subject of adoption as sons and daughters of God in Jesus Christ.

Isaac’s faith in blessing Jacob and Esau is not obvious at first, and yet despite his weakness he made decisions and acted by faith - he did what he could in the light of what had been revealed.

Abraham faced this great test by faith; and he did so knowing who his God is, do we know what God is like?

Abraham was tested by God. At times in the Christian life we will also face tests and trials, but why? How are we to approach these things, and live by faith through them?

The responsibility of a church towards an elder. Recognise authority; recognise weakness; recognise accountability.

What makes an elder qualified? Continuing the 3 part series on eldership, we consider the Biblical qualifications as outlined for us here and in Titus 1.

In the first of a series of 3 considering ‘eldership’, we first address the question: what is a church? A church follows God, belongs to God and is bought by God.

A radical statement from Jesus Christ! What does it mean, and how is Christ’s victory surprising and yet glorious?!
