I was going to call this article, “Not so great questions …” but decided to leave it as it is because, this is a question you and I might ask; not in the same context, but with the same underlying thought. God had told Moses to go to Pharaoh, “that you may bring my people, […]
Throughout scripture, there are some great questions asked. In the Book of Job, God says to Job, “Dress for action like a man, I will question you …” (Job 40:7). (I think that is a terrifying scenario!) In the Psalms, there are many questions posed — David asked, “How long, O LORD? Will you forget […]
“Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth” (Matthew 5:5 (ESV)). In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus teaches us that if we are a part of His Kingdom, we will be meek or gentle. One of the big problems is, we are not always sure what it means to be gentle. We […]
It seems that every time I turn round there is another piece of disturbing news. Whether it is in this country, or in places around the world, everything seems to be in turmoil. How do we make sense of it? How might we sift through all the bad news to find something to give us […]

A New Beginning One of my favourite texts in scripture is found in Galatians 2:20. “I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me […]
On Saturday 29th September, Hebron will be hosting a OT Live day. OT Live is an engaging look at the Old Testament. The Old Testament is massive, often hard to understand and difficult to navigate. Relax and enjoy the journey as an experienced guide encourages you to see God’s Word through the ‘big picture’. Our […]
Crying Out The most important words that we will ever hear have got to be the Words of God. These are the words recorded in scripture. They are the words we need the most. They are words that should be life-changing. They are the words that should convict us. They are the words that should […]
Be Kind I saw something the other day that said, “In a society where it is possible to be anything, be kind!” I like that — be kind. “A man who is kind benefits himself, but a cruel man hurts himself” (Proverbs 11:17, ESV). As Christians we often talk about the free will that God […]
