Why the Pilgrims Really Went to America
This week, by kind permission of Dr Robert Tracy McKenzie, we read his insightful piece on the motivations of the Mayflower Pilgrims. As we mark 405 years since they made landfall in Provincetown, Massachussetts, what can we learn of spiritual benefit from their reasons for going to the 'New World'?

Guard Your Heart (1): Warren Peel
Of all of the great imperatives found in Scripture, few are more crucial than that found in Proverbs 4:23:
'Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life.'
If we fail to do this, all else will be in vain. This text was taken by Warren Peel, pastor at Covenant Christian Fellowship in Galway at the recent Banner Conference in Australia (February 2025). The conference theme was 'A Lifetime in Ministry.' We will post both instalments of this message on the podcast in the next week.
