“I was there at Pentecost”
| Pentecost 2022 |
It is Pentecost, a day when we remember and recognise the coming of the Holy Spirit. We are pausing from our series in 2 Timothy, which we will pick back up on next week, but today, we look back to the events of Pentecost when the Holy Spirit came upon the disciples in power. Listen as we hear from one of the 120 disciples as they retell the story. Readings Acts 2

Threats to our Commitment!
| Commitment - 2 Timothy / 3 |
As we continue through 2 Timothy, Paul turns his attention to warning about the threats we face in our journey of commitment to God. Paul notes 3 threats that could cause people to waver from their commitment to God. These threats are quarrelling, gossip and temptation to return to our previous way of life. Paul gives us advice and guidance as to how to avoid these threats and continue in our faithful relationship with God Read more

Commitment in the Face of Faithlessness!
| Commitment - 2 Timothy / 2 |
In the second part of our series, we find Paul instructing Timothy how to remain faithful and committed in the face of faithlessness. Timothy was facing in-fighting and attempts at usurping control of the church away from the rightful head, Jesus. And so, Paul gave Timothy encouragement and guidance for how to remain faithful in the face of such opposition. We may not face the same struggles as Timothy, but we too can learn from these words to help us as we face the struggles of our own daily lives. Read more

Rekindle Your Commitment!
| Commitment - 2 Timothy / 1 |
This week we begin a new series looking at the concept of commitment by going through Paul’s Second Letter to Timothy. We begin our series by looking at how we rekindle our commitment, or as Paul puts it “fan into flames the gift you have”. How can you ‘fan into flames’ your love and commitment for God? No matter how small or large your faith may be, there is always room to grow, so take time as we reflect upon rekindling our commitment to God. Read more

Be Prepared!
We look at another of the resurrection appearances of Jesus this week. And as we reflect upon this encounter, we take note of how we can be prepared for the mission and ministry that God has given us. God has blessed us with gifts, talents, and skills; He has led us to the places and people around us. How can we be prepared to share the good news of Jesus with those He calls us to? Read more
