A few weeks ago we were all given giving envelopes with a pamphlet wrapped around it entitled “my giving at scpc”. I think this was my second Sunday working in my new ministry co-ordinator role so I have only had a chance to read through the document this week.

In this Bible Talk from 1 Corinthians chapter 8 Pete Thompson begins to explore Christian Freedom. As Christians we have great freedom but this freedom must be used in love, not merely for our own benefit but for the building up of others. This also marks the beginning of this series and Term 3, 2008. During the school holidays youth group had their annual week long camp – safari. This year’s camp was quite a big one with 57 people going along to brave the cold at Afterlee (back of Kyogle) and the Yarrahapinni campsite (Grassy Head). As we opened to the book of 2 Peter, the theme for [...] [...] Today ‘The Bible Talks’ university ministry began again for another semester. It was great to see old faces returning and some new faces too, in our new room R204. We heard a great talk from Wade Iedema from Isaiah 1-2, about the difference between living for this world, bowing down to the things our hands [...] [...] On Sunday we heard from Rachel Iedema about her life growing up in a Catholic family of 10 children and how through trusting in God’s Word rather than the Catholic Church with its traditions and rituals she found that salvation is through Christ alone. In this bible talk by Peter Yock we conclude our 3 week series on mission. We learn from Psalm 96 how delighting in God leads to praising God to the nations, for He is great, He alone is God, and He will judge the world. It has been fantastic to hear the call of God’s Word to mission in our current Bible Talk series. As you may be aware, we’re also beginning to plan for CONNECT 2009 – a year of focus on mission. ‘Focussed’ because, of course, we’re always wanting to make mission a priority. Sometimes it’s helpful, though, [...] [...] It’s interesting hearing the word ‘pilgrim’ in the media so much this week. It’s a very special word to many Christians not least because of the fantastic book “Pilgrim’s Progress” by John Bunyan. Bunyan wrote this classic in the 17th century when he was imprisoned for many years for refusing to stop preaching the gospel [...] [...] In this bible talk by Ryan Dehnert we continue looking at God’s mission in the world, and see that both the goal and method of God’s saving mission is the church. Not only are we saved to belong to God’s church, but it’s through the community of God’s church proclaiming the gospel together and living [...] [...] A recording of “Clinging to the Cross” has been added to the Featured Items Page, featuring Hannah Kinton on vocals, Rachel Lim on violin, and peter yock on guitar and vocals. |
