While some of us enjoy the sunshine, coffee and the opportunity to talk, others are fighting once again – More fisticuffs between the Sunni and Shia Muslims, iroinicly Saʽid was trying to convince me at that very moment that Islam is a religion of peace – you couldn’t make it up (lol)!

Preaching today on the negelected book of Leviticus.

Venue: Duncan Road Church
Activity: All Age Service
Date: 8th May 2022
Time: 10.30am
Subject: ‘‘The Peace Offering”
Bible Passage: Leviticus chapter 3 verses 1-17

The first word in the Old Testament book of Leviticus is Wayyiqra’, meaning “and God called.” That’s what Leviticus means: God calls people to meet with him and shows them how they are to come and walk before him.
The exact meaning of the Church, the ekklesia, is the “called out ones.” We are also those who have been called out. In that day, God spoke from the Tabernacle and asked them to come to him. Today, the Lord Jesus calls us to himself.

Time to “Chew on the chewables!” Debate & arguments and somnething for the grey matter to chew over or to pass on to others to chew!

It was a joy to work in Hampshire at the same time as John & Hettie Hall. They were supportive and prayerful towards my minstry and had an effective minsitry reaching people through music, song, teaching & preaching.

Hettie was called home to be with her Lord just before Easter April 2022

and we’re off! ‘BodyBuilders’ Houseparty 2022 starts tonight!
We are SOLD OUT with 30 teenagers and 17 leaders (and 2 children) squeezed, squashed, stuffed, scrunched, packed, compressed and jammed into variuous rooms at our Church venue!
This year is #30 yep, 1990 was the first one, I wonder how many of you out there were on it?)

I will be leading and speaking at the three main teaching sessions, on the theme, ‘My Lighthouse.’ In the Bible God describes himself as light (1 John chapter 1 verse 5) and Christians are asked to ‘walk in the light’ (Ephesians chapter 5 verses 7-14). Light/Lighthouse is our teaching theme this weekend.

This week has been mainly taken up with preparation for ‘BodyBuilders’ Houseparty, 3 nights away in Bournemouth, which starts on Friday (29/4/22).
Today and tomorrow will be spent putting togther three talks/sermons and planning the content for our three sessions.

Teaching Theme: ‘My Lighthouse’ (the youth love this song and we can use it as a springboard to teach the truths that, ‘God is light’ and how to ‘walk in the light’.
Value prayer for which passages of the Bible to focus on for the talks!
