Much as I’d love to believe that the congregation hangs on my every word, I know full well that ones attention can occasionally wander during a sermon. Sometimes it’s useful to be able to go back and re-read the message, or to catch up if you haven’t been able to make it to church.

Please do feel free to contact me if you would like to chat about the sermon, or indeed anything else!

Acts 16:9-15; Psalm 67; Revelation 21:10,22-22:5; John 14:23-29 “For the Lord God will be their light.” I’m sure some of you will know this: “Jesus bids us shine with a clear pure light, like a little candle burning in the night; in this world of darkness we must shine – you in your small corner, and I in mine.” (1).
