Advent Sunday (Matthew 25:1-13)

“Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.” (Matthew 24:42)

Why not take time this Advent to prayerfully consider whether you are ready for Jesus’ return? The sermons will help. Over the next few weeks, we will be looking at three of the stories Jesus tells to help us in our Advent reflection. They pose the following questions for us to consider: Am I prepared to follow Jesus for the whole of life or is it just a fad? Am I using the gifts and talents God gave me as I should? Do I treat other people, as though they are Jesus?

Remembrance Sunday, (Job 19:23-27a; 2 Thes. 2:1-8)

Job 19:25: ” I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end he will stand upon the earth.”

This Sunday is Remembrance Sunday, when we celebrate the courage and bravery of those who risked and gave their lives protecting our country and freedom. It is also a time to remember the horrors of war, which helps to encourage us to do all we can to avoid war breaking out in the future.

Harvest – Sowing for Growth (Luke 8:1-15)

“The earth is the LORD’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it;” – Psalm 24:1

Let us remember the ultimate source of our food. The verse above reminds us that everything in the earth belongs to God, he is the creator and source of all things. Ultimately, he is the one who provides the food we enjoy, so it is only right that we stop to thank him!
