A special programme for Christmas, with music and readings

The prophets, like Malachi and John the Baptist, were all given messages - for the people of their time, but also for us. Are we ready to hear the message through the noise of our lives?

Advent is about waiting for Jesus and his return to us. But it becomes hard to appreciate that in a world full of bustle in the weeks leading to Christmas. Martin Beukes considers how we might find some peace and quiet for Jesus.

As Advent starts we celebrate the coming king, Jesus, who reigns in justice and majesty.

Martin Beukes takes a fresh look at the parable of the sower in Matthew's gospel and considers where the hard ground, the thorny and stone-covered ground are. And how we cultivate the good soil.

We were not promised a sweet and easy life. Many things move us to tears. But Jesus, the compassionate, who died and lives for us, shares in our sorrows. But, the ultimate promise is that he will wipe away the tears.

A service for remembrance

Jesus died for all. It is easy to say, but when you have experienced the difficulties of life and know how broken our lives can be, this takes on greater meaning. Symon Turner speaks fron the heart about the reality of the risen Christ.

The Methodist covenant prayer ends with line 'I freely and wholeheartedly yield all things to your pleasure and disposal'. It is a challenging statement of trust in God, and Rev. Jenny Dowding examines what putting our trust in Jesus really involves, and how we can gain greater trust.

The book of Job in the Old Testament tackles head on the question of why bad things happen to good people, and how faithful following of God in the end carries us through. Jesus asked Peter at the end of John's gospel 'Do you love me more than these?' These what? The questions in Job and John are related, for they are about our priorities in our relationship with Jesus.
