Friday 16th February – Luke 3:15-22 ‘Anointed with fire’

15th February 2024 by asadmin

In a coronation service, always the most special part of the ceremony is the anointing.  Even in our supposedly secular age, at King Charles’ coronation last year, the Act of Consecration was deemed so sacred, that it was the only part of the ceremony which was kept hidden from public view and the ubiquitous TV … Read more

Thursday 15th February – Luke 3:1-14 ‘The herald of change’

14th February 2024 by asadmin

One thing that was striking about the recent accession of King Charles to the throne is the role of heralds in royal pageantry.  It’s not something we see much of in day-to-day life: but the fanfares which accompanied the proclamation of Charles as king – both in September 2022, or at his coronation in May … Read more

Ash Wednesday 14th February – Psalm 51 ‘Purity and joy’

13th February 2024 by asadmin

At its heart, Psalm 51 is about choosing humility in order to see life and renewal again – and as such, it also encapsulates the journey of Lent.  We choose to humble ourselves not to just be miserable for 40 days but in order that we may experience God’s presence again, his goodness, his mercy, … Read more

Tuesday 13th February – Isaiah 55:8-13 ‘The fruitful word’

13th February 2024 by asadmin

When he was a young preacher the great Christian leader and writer Dallas Willard would get very worried about delivering a sermon – would people like it?  Would it bear fruit?  While preparing one day, he received a word of encouragement from the Lord which dramatically changed his perspective and his future ministry: ‘Don’t worry … Read more

Monday 12th February – Isaiah 55:1-7 ‘The great invitation’

13th February 2024 by asadmin

It’s been quite a journey – this amazing prophetic vision of Isaiah, which started in chapter 40 with the ‘voice of one calling in the wilderness, “Prepare the way of the Lord!”’ comes to a fitting conclusion today and tomorrow.  Day after day we’ve marvelled at promise after promise; and we’ve heard another voice, the … Read more

Day 24: Sunday 24th December, Christmas Eve – John 1:1-14 ‘The Light shines in the darkness’

23rd December 2023 by asadmin

‘The people walking in darkness have seen a great light…. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.’ We live in dark and anxious times. Fears for health, for loved ones, for prosperity, for mental wellbeing are all prevalent in hearts and minds this Christmas. We are not alone in … Read more

Day 23: Saturday 23rd December – Matthew 2:9-12 ‘They opened their treasures’

22nd December 2023 by asadmin

Our best wedding present was in many ways the most unlikely. Like most couples we’d received a lot of wonderful gifts to start a new home. Shortly after we’d arrived back from honeymoon we received one final gift, which came in an unmarked brown cardboard box, wrapped up with brown parcel tape. For those of … Read more

Day 22: Friday 22nd December – Matthew 2:3-8 ‘Greatly disturbed’

21st December 2023 by asadmin

In February each year, the charity Open Doors publishes its World Watch List. This constitutes the 50 countries where it is most dangerous to be a Christian – places where it is not just frowned upon but actually illegal to convert or own a bible, and where persecution is commonplace. Sadly, the list could be … Read more

Day 21: Thursday 21st December – Matthew 2:1-2 (ii) ‘We saw his star’

20th December 2023 by asadmin

On this day (21st December) in 2020, the two largest planets in the solar system, Jupiter and Saturn, aligned so closely to one another in the sky that they appeared to be fused into a single point of light. Although the trajectories of these planets come close to one another every twenty years or so, to … Read more

Day 20: Wednesday 20th December – Matthew 2:1-2 ‘Magi came….’

19th December 2023 by asadmin

‘We three kings of Orient are, bearing gifts we traverse afar…’ The image of the Wise Men or Kings is so iconic that it’s etched into most of our minds. Three elegant travellers, dressed in fine richly-coloured robes, perched on majestic camels, striding across the desert, with a large train of servants. There’s usually the … Read more
