  • Men with a mission (10:2-)

    When Jesus sent out his seventy messengers, he made it clear what qualities they (and we) would need to finish the task.  We examine seven characteristics he aimed to develop in them.

  • By faith… some triumphed, some endured

    Every one of God's children lives by faith.  Some are allowed to experience triumphs and joys in this world.  Others are called to endure affliction and apparent failure.  But all are commended for their faith.  And all will share in the everlasting inheritance.

  • By faith… what more can I say?

    God's people have always lived by faith, looking forward in hope, trusting an invisible God.  We must learn to recognise faith in the lives of Old Testament saints.  The judges, David, Samuel, the prophets were all men of faith.
