In a world filled with uncertainty, it's comforting to know that God's word stands firmly from the beginning to eternity. We're diving into Isaiah chapter 40, exploring the profound truth that while human lives come and go, God's word and promises remain unshakeable. Today, Colin reminds us of the beauty and fragility of life, and the reassurance that both our lives and deaths are in God's hands. Join us as we delve into the message, celebrating the enduring truth of God's word and the hope we have in Jesus Christ.

Today Pastor Colin reminds us that while sharing the good news of Jesus Christ is essential, recognising our response to that message is equally important. As the holidays approach, Pastor Colin thoughtfully addresses the poignant reality of missing loved ones and encourages us to find comfort and hope in God's Word. This time of year reminds us of Jesus' mission to bring peace and offer pardon, yet it also emphasises the need for us to accept these gifts through faith. By focusing on both the beauty and fragility of life, we are invited to live gratefully and humbly. Pastor Colin also highlights the importance of acknowledging God's sovereignty over both our lives and deaths, reminding us that every moment is precious.

Today we explore the critical importance of understanding and communicating the genuine message of the Gospel, especially in challenging times. Pastor Colin takes us through Isaiah chapter 40, illustrating how God's words and spirit guide us to be effective messengers of hope and reconciliation. We delve into the profound dimensions of the Gospel, distinguishing between simply saying "all is forgiven" and understanding the deep forgiveness and peace found in Jesus Christ. Tune in to discover how being immersed in God's word and spirit can empower you to speak life into a world in need of comfort.

How are we, as Christian believers, to speak in a world where many face pressures and have drifted away from faith? As we continue our Advent series, "Waiting on the Lord," exploring Isaiah chapter 40, Colin emphasises the importance of speaking tenderly and with compassion, echoing the call to comfort God's people. We also delve into the themes of clear communication, the power of God's word, and the role of believers as messengers. Join us as we unpack these themes and prepare our hearts for the Christmas season.

How can we renew our strength through faith and understanding? Discover what it truly means to "wait on the Lord" and how leaning into the truths we know about God and ourselves can transform our weariness into renewed hope and strength. Join Colin as he explores Isaiah 40 and shares the comforting assurance that God's inexhaustible power is sufficient for all our struggles. This message is a timely reminder that no matter how worn out we may feel, we can find rest and rejuvenation in the presence of our eternal and ever-faithful Creator.
