The Resurrection – Easter Day 2016

Easter is at the centre of the Christian faith. "By this gospel you are saved...that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures" (1 Cor 15:2-4).

Hosea: God’s heart, broken for us: Part 5 of 5

Hosea: God’s heart, broken for us: Part 3 of 5

Acknowledging who God is, in entirety, puts us in the right position before him and it is in this humble place of empty hands and broken hearts that confession is welcomed and forgiveness assured.
