The Making in the Shaking
Matt 7:24-25
We are living in a shaky time. But this is not new. God’s people have lived through shaky times before and always came out stronger for it. Even though difficulties will come to Christians, God gives us His grace and His promises in His Word, in the Bible, to stand firm and be delivered.

The Beauty of Christ

From Servants to Sons
Isaiah 49v1-7
Like God’s people in exile, we are more than happy to be saved from evil and safe in God’s service, but His plans for us are even bigger: ‘It is too small a thing for you to be called my servant…’
Christ’s Baptism & Our Salvation
Matthew 3:13-17
At Epiphany the Spirit descends on creation through Christ. The whole world is sanctified, changing how we perceive the created order and God’s providence. We go from outsiders to insiders, strangers to God’s family. His awesome holiness is revealed to be his perfect love.
