Bible Reading: Hope because Jesus is Righteous

In this morning’s Bible Reading I will be expounding Psalm 5. Under our theme of Hope this will point us to the great hope that comes from watching Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith (Hebrews 12:2) as he knows what it means to be righteous. As we hope in Jesus, we learn to enjoy righteousness in him.

Seminar: Sharing hope with friends (evangelism)

Against the backdrop of a world scarred by COVID-19, the brightness of Christian hope shines distinctly above the noise of fear, uncertainty and death. In this very timely seminar, Kristi Mair and Andy Bannister will explore what is unique about Christian hope, especially in a coronavirus world. They’ll then share some very practical tools for how we can talk to our friends, neighbours and colleagues about the hope of the gospel. In a world in chaos where people are increasingly asking questions about hope, Andy and Kristi will equip you to share the difference that Jesus makes.

Join us for the Q&A sessions that follow the seminars each day. Text in your question to the following number 07380308859 for consideration in the Q&A.

Book recommendations:  The Atheist Who Didn’t Exist by Andy Bannister; Questioning Evangelism by Randy Newman; More>Truth by Kristi Mair and Plugged In by Dan Strange.

Is it good news that God is Righteous? This will be one of the questions we think about when looking at Psalm 5. We want to answer ‘YES!’ of course it is, it’s good that we have a God who hates injustice, a God who isn’t indifferent about suffering and sin. It’s good that because of who God is that those things will come to an end in the new creation. However, when we look at our own hearts, we are hit with a dilemma as we see sin in our lives. When we honestly reflect on the wickedness of our own hearts, can we honestly say we can pray this psalm? The teaching of God’s Word through singing, memory verses and a craft time will look at what this means for each of us.
