Matthew 5:1-16 – In the Beatitudes, King Jesus calls his people to live as citizens of the kingdom of heaven… now. Our priorities and behaviour are radically challenged as Jesus holds out the blessed life.
Hebrews 13:5 – The gospel of Jesus Christ should impact every area of the Christian’s life (even our bank accounts). Why can we be content with what we have? Because God will never leave us nor forsake us.
Hebrews 7:25 – A done deal. Finished. All wrapped up. That’s every Christian’s salvation. Why? Because Jesus is alive and well today.
Hebrews 10:31 – The first Good Friday was a dreadful day for Jesus, but it was the basis for our acceptance before God. It’s a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God, but, thankfully, Jesus went there for us.
Matthew 28:19-20 & Galatians 3:13-14 – In order for evangelism to become “normal,” we need to have a re-think. We must see evangelism as a command to be obeyed (instead of a suggestion), and a privilege (instead of a chore). Christians will not face the curse of God. This changes everything!
Gen 1:27-28 & Deut 7:7-9 – “Evangelism” is a word that generates anxiety for most Christians. Understanding what evangelism is (and what it isn’t!), is the first step towards faithfulness (no matter how we might feel!).
Colossians 1:28 – Speaking of Jesus and growing to maturity in Christ – this is what the church should be all about. How did St Giles do towards accomplishing these aims in 2015? What should our priorities be in the year ahead? Listen in to find out.
How did the church of Jesus Christ fare after Jesus had ascended into heaven and the apostles all had died? Let’s just say it was a “difficult” period. Simultaneously though, the gospel continued to grow and bear fruit. There’s much to learn from the persecution of those who’ve gone before us. Be faithful to Jesus, […]
Isaiah 60:19-20 – Who doesn’t find the grey days of winter dispiriting? Thankfully, for God’s people, a day of unceasing brightness and joy is coming. The Lord will be our everlasting light. This news should make our hearts throb and swell with joy!
Gen 29:14-30:24 – A peek into Jacob’s family life is sad, but all the time, God’s promise is growing. Is your life similarly “messy?” Remembering that God is at work changes everything.
Genesis 22 – Unbelievably, God tells Abraham to kill his son Isaac and offer him as a burnt offering. What will Abraham do? Through Abraham and Isaac we learn invaluable lessons about faith and God’s grand plan to provide a substitute for sinners.
Genesis 18-19 – As we hear of God’s terrifying judgement upon Sodom and Gomorrah, we’re reminded that God alone knows the path to life. Our passage today gives us 3 signposts along that path.
Genesis 17 – Faith is believing what God says, but we struggle to do just that! As God re-affirms His covenant with Abram, we’re encouraged to live lives of faith – even when God’s promises seem too good to be true.
Philippians 1:27-2:4 – We have a wonderful Gospel – it is the power of God unto salvation. But how should this Gospel impact our daily lives?

Proverbs 1 – Our technological advances are breath-taking. But are we any better at living? Are we any godlier? As Christians come to the book of Proverbs, trusting in Christ alone for salvation, they find in it a “road map for living.” Where does it begin? Listening well.
