A People of Praise
In 1 Peter 2:4-10 we read the Church described as a people of praise. In doing so, the Apostle Peter uses language that brings to mind the spectacle of Jewish worship at the Temple. That spectacle continued despite the fact that God was no longer present and no longer being served. In fact God the Son was rejected and killed by those who claimed to lead the people in worship. In this we see a powerful reminder to keep Jesus as the center of our worship - to never allow it to become empty ritua...

Crave the Word
As we celebrate Mother's Day we are reminded of what the powerful image that God has built into Motherhood as an illustration of how His Children should relate Him. Just as a newborn baby craves his or her mother's milk, so we - as people who have been given new life through the Word - also by nature crave the pure milk of God's Word to sustain and grow that new life. Just as a mother loves to satisfy the cravings of her children so God loves to satisfy the craving of our souls through the int...

The "Aha!" Moment
On Easter Sunday we reflect on the glorious salvation that Peter has been describing in the first 9 verses of 1 Peter chapter 1. He goes on to say that the prophets who prophesied of the messiah would have loved to have known how their prophecies would all come together in fulfilment - so many of them appeared contradictory, as though they must talk about different people. We go back to Luke 24 to witness the moments when some of Jesus' followers finally understood all that Jesus did in order ...

Hope in Hardship
In the wonderful hymn of praise that we find in 1 Peter 1:3-9 we discover the source of joy that never fades away regardless of what our circumstances may be. That joy is rooted in the inheritance that is kept safe in heaven for us; and the fact that we are kept safe the limitless power of God until the time when we receive that inheritance from Him.In this message we remind ourselves of the assurance we have of God's grace that we access through faith; and we discover the value of trials whic...

Raising a Godly Generation
On a day in which our church is celebrating God's gift of children, we particularly apply the truths of 1 Peter 4 to our role as a church family and as members of human families. How are we helping our children to grab hold of a living hope which is imperishable, incorruptibe and unfading? How do we help our children to engage meaningfully with their church, and how do we live out our faith as families so that our children are being trained in being disciples of Christ and disciple-makers for ...

Have You Been Born Again?
In 1 Peter 1:3 the Apostle Peter overflows with praise to God for His wonderful gift of "new birth into a living hope". What is this new birth all about, and why is it so important for us?We reflect back on Jesus' conversation with Nicodemus, where He said that unless a person is born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God. As we explore further in the New Testament we are reminded that our salvation - the gift of eternal life - is something that is completely out of reach for us. However God...

Experiencing God's Abundant Grace and Peace
Our studies of the introduction to the letter of 1 Peter have led us to a transforming truth: instead of trying to protect ourselves or pursue our own blessings we must choose to trust God and pursue obedience to Christ. In this message we discover why this truth is the secret to experiencing the abundant grace and peace that Peter seeks to bless his readers with.

Would You Rather Be Popular or Influential
From Paul's challenge to Timothy in 1 Timothy 4:11-16 we look at the difference between a pursuit of popularity and the investment in influence. One emphasises external conformity, the other internal character. One is all about us, the other is all about God and others. One is temporary, the other eternal. Regardless of how much we try, we won't all be popular, but we can all be influential. God has prepared in advance good works for us to do. God has promised to produce good fruit through tho...
