This Sunday we put into practice all we have been learning together about life in the Kingdom by discerning together what God is saying in the remainder of Matthew 5: Oaths, Retaliation and Love of Enemy. We found that God helps us to faithfully navigate these difficulties of life.

Good afternoon church family, One of my favourite stories in the Old Testament is about King Hezekiah and his reign. The Bible says“Hezekiah trusted in the Lord, the God of Israel.
