24.01.2022 In a Lebanese church, a group of volunteers are making sandwiches to give to those affected by the Beirut explosion. Zalloukh found safety in Beirut, Lebanon af...ter fleeing from the war in Syria. But on 4 August 2020, she felt her life, and the lives of her two young children, were at risk again. I was putting my nine-month-old to sleep when the explosion happened, she said. I shouted Jesus, Jesus, Jesus! He had saved me many times before. I was sure he would save me now too. Zalloukh’s family has no income. They survived with the help of a Centre of Hope supported by Open Doors. There she received milk and other life-sustaining resources. Without the milk help, my baby would have died, she said. Now, Zalloukh is helping others. Every day she goes to church to help those in need, including those also impacted by the Beirut explosion. Please pray for believers like Zalloukh, and those in need in Lebanon
23.01.2022 "We must not turn listening to the Word of God into entertainment. For those of us who come and listen week by week, we can do that can’t we? We can become conn...oisseurs, sitting there keeping score, counting and savouring the stories and the illustrations, or thumbing through thick bibles to criticise the exegesis. But not doing what the Word says. But our Lord warns us that a sure foundation in the moment of testing, of trial whether that is a pandemic, or a financial crisis, or a war, or our death - is only known by those who listen and do." - Neil Chambers preaches on heeding God's Word of warning and hope, from Ezekiel 33. https://youtu.be/Yww0ZhW0n7E?t=858
22.01.2022 @ Today's Meal for Mission, Nathan and Tomoko Stewart spoke about their Gospel ministry in Japan, where the church represents fewer than one percent of 125 million people. The presentation was challenging and eye-opening. May God continue to bless their important work in Japan!
21.01.2022 "I’ve been told from time to time that speaking so bluntly of sin and judgment and even hell is rude and negative. And especially, I’m told, at this time. I’ve... had to ask, why does that criticism find no emotional traction with me? Is it because I’m unfeeling or unsympathetic, I thought? Or is it because I am doggedly but cheerlessly faithful to the text which clearly speaks of sin and judgment? No, I thought, it’s actually because God brought ME to life through conviction of judgment. I can remember as an 11 year old, knowing God would judge me and that I deserved condemnation, the hell of eternal separation from Him. I knew that. But the same word of God that brought me conviction of that also told me He would forgive me if I turned back to Him. And I found found then and I’ve since found that nothing is better, nothing more comforting, nothing that gives you greater confidence in the present, nothing that gives you a surer hope than being a sinner reconciled to the living God through the death of His Son. Knowing that you are saved undeservedly by His generous mercy." - Neil Chambers preaching on the mercy of God from Ezekiel 18 https://youtu.be/Kl328kvauZs?t=901

20.01.2022 @ Our annual 'Meal for Mission' event this afternoon, we have invited Robert and Jenni Alley (AIM, Australian Indigenous Ministries) to hear about 'Across the D...ivide' ministry which they have been doing for 16 years. Rob & Jenni have a personal desire to see people going to serve in our own backyard here in Australia, where there is a great need for gospel workers to shine the light of Jesus. A great and mutually encouraging time. https://acrossthedivide.com.au/people

19.01.2022 In the grief of the cross the man of sorrows speaks to us a hard word, a good word, and a sure word. A word that tells us that the judgement for our sin is eit...her borne by Jesus in our place, or we will bear it ourselves, and calls us to repent and trust the living Jesus to forgive us and give us eternal life. - Neil Chambers preaches on grief and hope from Ezekiel 24. https://youtu.be/S6tovymdpwg?t=1213
