Earthquake, famine and flood!

This world is going crazy!

Oil prices are soaring, food prices are rocketing, personal debt is out of control, financial markets are on the verge of collapse, we are seeing more significant earthquakes, more flooding out of season, famine continues to grip some third world, tensions in the Middle East are at an all time high, the UK's relationship with Russia is distinctively cooling, etc., etc.

It would seem that the planet is heading for disaster! The good news is that this is all in God's control and has been prophesied to us. So take some comfort that God is in control, and Jesus is coming again!

Easter Message

What a great weekend! The weather hasn’t been very kind and more akin to Christmas, but to see the daffodils and cowslips in bloom it is good to see new life blossoming in the countryside. It is also poignant that we remember Christ’s resurrection on Easter Day, and that through His death on the cross and resurrection from the dead three days later, we can now approach out heavenly Father through the price paid by His Son on the cross.

Easter provides the foundation of the Christian faith, because without the resurrection, we would have no hope. But Christ has won the victory over death, and we can all have eternal life, if we just repent of our sins and follow His ways. Now that’s new life!
