U Matters

Don’t know when I have got more feedback from a sermon than I did last Sunday talking about God’s pruning of our lives. No “Great sermon pastor” but rather “This is the struggle, crisis, challenge, or fear I am facing.” We have a loving Heavenly Father who cares for us more than we realise. We have our Lord Jesus Christ who knows our struggles and pain because he took them with him on the cross. We have the Holy Spirit to comfort and strengthen us no matter what we face. We may be hurting but we have a God who is there.

This Week

Bible Series Talk - ''Game of Thrones + Prophets' - Pastor Matthew

  • Sunday, 10 Jul
  • Light refreshments 12:15PM
  • Talk and Small Groups 12:30PM to 1:30PM
  • Upper Annex
RSVP for Refreshments 
The book of Kings records a 383 year power struggle. Though variously interpreted as wisdom literature, a storybook illustration of the principles in Deuteronomy, a legitimisation of the Temple (with a tragic conclusion), or by the 16th century Catholic Church as an obvious denunciation of the Protestant Rebellion, how do we meaningfully interpret stories of Solomon's 700 wives and 300 mistresses, a resurrection 800 years before Christ, and a queen fed to dogs? 'Kings' is a book about ten prophets representing the True Power behind warring thrones.
