There must be more than this

The Man who ran away from God
This week, we start a two-part series on the Book of Jonah with Jill Southern. God's will may often challenge us, especially if we've already got an agenda for our lives! What is our motivation for what we do? Are we completely sold out for Jesus? Like Jonah, we can often end up making a […]
God's Way – Or the Long Way
Do we trust God? We may often find ourselves facing tough challenges, but if we trust in the Lord, then he will protect and guide us! Paul Watson digs into the opening chapter of Deuteronomy, as a case study of what the differences are between going Our way and going God's way. Will we choose […]
Your Kingdom come
It's no secret that the UK is in desperate need of prayer. With many uncertain on the future of Brexit, it's clear that we need God to work in this land. How do we pray when there are no easy answers? This weekend Jilly Lyon-Taylor explores this question, by looking at how Jesus taught us […]

Christians like to talk a lot about the Fire of God, but what does the Bible actually tell us when it talks about Fire? This week, Paul Watson explores different ways the word "Fire" is used in scripture, and what that means for us today.
The Promises that God Never Made
Promises are a very important theme in the Bible, with many people making covenants and statements of intent throughout scripture. But the most important promises to be found come from God. This week, Jen Perdriau takes us through the different promises that God makes in Scripture to his people, distinguishing them from the promises that […]
Will We Be The Generation That Drops The Baton?
In the 21st Century, our Generation is facing some difficult choices on how to apply Christianity in the modern world. Are we willing to compromise our beliefs, or will we stand firm in the Word of God? In order to delve into this, Ken Symington takes us through some Church history, challenging us with examples […]
Law vs Grace | Diane Watson
How can we apply the Word in our lives today? It is by Grace we are saved, but that doesn't take away our need for direction. So how do we balance Faith with Works? This week, Diane Watson explores the Ten Commandments, challenging us to grow in righteousness and obedience to God.
The Narrow Path
Matthew 7:14 talks about the narrow gates which lead to life. But what does it mean to walk the narrow way? This week, Nykolay takes us through 3 stories within the gospels, exploring different examples of what it means to follow and trust in Jesus.
Can these Dry Bones Live?
God works in seemingly hopeless situations – Is your vision of what God can do in and through you big enough? This week, guest speaker Russ Gant walks us through the well-known passage in Ezekiel 37, where Ezekiel sees God transform a collection of dead, dry bones to into a living army. Join us as […]
Devoted – To what or whom
Where do our hearts lie? Do we desire to study and share the Word of the Lord? This week, we look through different points in the Bible, to understand what it means to seek the will of God and to do it. If we draw near to God then he will draw near to us. […]
Reflections From Heaven
Jesus is the light of the world. As Christians, the light of God shines within us and can help others to find faith. This week, Jen brings an encouraging message on light and how we can reflect the light of life onto those around us.
The Good News
The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the good news! It speaks of forgiveness, reconciliation, adoption, life, power etc, even though it will cost us in this life! Though the rewards far outweigh the cost, so few truly appreciate and live in the reality of these amazing truths. Paul Watson brings us a fresh reminder of […]
Are You Going to Finish What God Called You To Do?
Are you going to finish what God called you to do? 1 Corinthians talks about a fire that will test our accomplishments for Christ. Are we living the life He has called us too? Or have we started down the way, only to abandon it or become distracted from it. In this challenging talk, Jill […]
Gideon: Reluctant Hero
This week, Jilly takes us through the story of Gideon shown in Judges 6-8; A story that shows how God is patient and gracious to us, even when we mess up.
You Have Never Failed Me
Trusting in the promises of God and remembering His faithfulness down through the years is essential when we hit difficult times in our lives. Diane Watson brings an encouraging message, prompting us to never forget that God never fails!
Let Not Your Heart Be Troubled
It's the reality of life that we have ups and downs, easy times and times where you are struggling to understand why your in the place you in. It's in those times we often face choices to run to God or to be "over-run" by the situations. In this sermon, Gary looks at how we […]
Transformed Grace
In this sermon, Jill expounds on Romans 7 and the important of Law and Grace. Are we living a life fused with the gift of Grace that God is offering us? Are we doing things in order to earn His pleasure. No matter how many good things we do in our lives, we cannot earn […]
Thrust Behind Your Back
In 1 Kings, King Jeroboam is an evil king. He lead Israel into idolatry and away from God. In fact, most kings who failed to follow God's ways were compared to him. He did much evil in God's sight. As we read his story, or stories like this, it is easy to think it doesn't […]
Product, Positioned, Prepared
In this Sermon, Paul looks at 1 Kings 5 and the story of Elisha and Naaman. As we remember, Naaman was a commander in Aram's army and had Leprosy. God healed him when he bathed in the Jordan River at Elisha's request. At the end of this story, Naaman brings dirt home so his can […]
The Glass Half Full or Half Empty
When we look at our lives or situations that may arise, we can often look at it from a place of seeing the glass half full or half empty. We have to learn to look at it through God's eyes. In this sermon, Jilly looks at Numbers 13-14, when the Israelite's have just come back […]
The Highs and Lows of Being a Shulamite
In this sermon, Jen explores the Song of Solomon. Often a confusing book, that may shy away from, Jen shares about how it's story mirrors our walk with God. There are highs and lows, mountain tops and valleys, but through it all God's love and patience never fails. He is waiting for us to let […]
Kept for the Masters Use
"Take my life and let it be, consecrated Lord to thee", is a line from a famous 19th centaury hymn that still resonates with us today. Peter Horrobin unpacks the truth from this beautiful hymn and how it confirms Paul's second letter to Timothy concerning the need to be set apart and ready for the […]
How often do we worry about the things in life that would seem completely normal to the world, but totally absurd to God. If we find ourselves fretting over things like food, clothes and money, there needs to be a re-calibration of our view of God as our provider. Jesus commanded us to "seek first […]
How Do You Balance Righteous Anger with Grace and Mercy
How do you love the unlovable? How do you handle righteous anger? Ken Symington shares through the Bible and his life experiences, how to balance anger at the injustices and when to offer grace and mercy.
Whom Have I in Heaven But You
This is sermon, Morna Gillespie reminds us to keep our eyes looking up to our amazing God. Sharing about what God taught her during a late night milky way photo shoot, she looks at Psalm 73, and asks the question do I desire God more then anything else.
Following Jesus Through the Eyes of Peter
As Christians, when we made the decision to follow Jesus, we did so knowing to a certain extent, who He was. We had the privilege of the Bible revealing the amazing plan of God and unfolding it within the written Word. But when the disciples chose to follow Jesus, they did not have a Bible […]
Who is Righteous
Teaching from Psalm 15, Sharon explore what it means to be a righteous person and the steps to become people of integrity. Are we people who do what we say we will do? Are our hearts completely the Lord's? Do we speak truth in our hearts? Sharon brings a challenge to each of us to […]
Are You Willing to be a Polished Arrow?
In this inspirational talk, Jill challenges us whether we are willing to be a polished arrow ready to be used by God. Often we aim to be in the bow, ready to be used, and can be frustrated by time in the quiver. However, when we are in the quiver, it is a place of […]
We all like Sheep
In this message, Diane Watson unpacks Isaiah 53 and takes a look at the example of mankind being like sheep in the Bible. Are we hearing the Good Shepherd's voice? Or are we wandering away like sheep to find pasture on our own?
Enter In
Because of what Jesus has done for us, the veil has been torn and we are able to enter into the presence of God. This is a remarkable thing to be treasured, but are we truly entering in? What does this being in God's presence offer us as believers? Jilly Lyon Taylor looks at Hebrews […]
God's Got This
In this sermon, Jen Perdriau shares how God had each of our lives in His hand and how we can completely trust in Him. Sometimes, we face situations that don't go to plan in our lives. Sometime it is a result of ourselves getting in the way, sometimes it is the Enemy blocking us, but […]
A Life In Balance
The catalyst for true Christianity is found in John 15. Jesus said to His disciples "I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; Remaining in Christ wasn't a command just for the 12 apostles but also for us today! If we […]
Radical Christianity
Jesus demands total surrender. No compromise, no turning back! In a world where it's so easy to give in to the temptations and oppositions life throws at us, how should we, as followers of Jesus, behave? Jill Southern addresses the need for radical Christianity (which is actually normal Christianity) in a world full of compromise […]
Taking Off our Training Wheels
When we are learning to ride a bike, it is important that we prepare. We need to be wearing the helmet and using the training wheels to learn how to ride. However, there comes a time when we need to step out and ride confidently. This is like our Christian walk. God wants to help […]
Pruned or Burned?
As branches are ingrafted into the vine, so are the believers ingrafted into Christ. Jesus said that if we abide in Him we will bear much fruit! Without Him, we can do nothing. If we do bear fruit, then pruning will ultimately follow! Pruning is not pleasant at the time but will bring about more […]
All Things Are Possible
Do you wonder why we fail to see the power of God working in our lives the way the scriptures reveal? Maybe we need to ask the tough question on whether we truly believe the statement Jesus made in Mark 10:27 when He said: "with God all things are possible". Diane Watson presents scriptural evidence […]
Who's Righteousness?
Who's righteousness are you trusting in? We're saved by grace through faith according to Ephesians 2, yet how often do we slip back into a works mentality as we continue with Christ. Gary Gallagher delivers a much-needed reminder of the sufficiency of Christ's righteousness for us who believe, and how everything we need is from […]
Why We Do What We Do
Everyone has a worldview. Where we grew up and how we grew up will ultimately determine our beliefs and the way we view the world around us! When we enter into a relationship with Christ, the process of our sanctification begins with the process of conforming our fallen worldview to a biblical worldview. Being conformed […]
Paul and the Unknown God
In Acts 17, the Apostle Paul was walking around Athens and came across the altar to the Unknown God. He took the opportunity to explain and introduce God to the people around. Paul Watson unpacks this amazing Chapter and asks the question; are we slumbering or are we looking out, like Paul to the world […]
Five Biblical Principles That Could Radically Change Your 2018
How will you look back in 2017? Was it a year to remember or a year you'd rather put behind you? However last year went, our goal should always be to honour and serve the Lord. In this first sermon of the year, Jill Southern gives five biblical principles that will help us mature in […]
Crucify The Flesh
The believer has been crucified with Christ. If you are born again of the Holy Spirit, you have died and risen with Christ. The old has gone, the new has come! Why then do we still have to fight sin in our own lives if we have been set free from the power of sin? […]
Digging Ditches
Jilly Lyon Taylor draws out some important life lessons from 2 Kings 3.
Before The Gods I Will Sing Your Praise
In this sermon, Paul Watson walks through Psalm 138, touching on how we need to sing praises before the "gods", exalting God's unfailing love and faithfulness and how God brings down the proud but uplifts the humble and restores those in trouble.
Only one life, 'twill soon be past, only what's done for Christ will last. This is a line from an old poem that resonates through all eternity. Each of us has been given one life, but how will we spend it? Paul Watson encourages us not waste the precious time we have, but to make […]
The Power Of The Seed
If we plant a seed, though it may seem very small and insignificant, we anticipate a result far greater than that which was sown. Our lives are like seeds, full of potential. Cultivating God's word in our lives will produce a fruitful harvest! The same principle applies to ungodliness and the subsequent consequences. However, this […]
A Time And Season For Everything
Seasons come, and seasons go! Changes are a part of life, and we can't avoid them. Our lives can often feel like the changing seasons of the year. When things are seemingly cold, barren and dark, we picture the winter, while the summer gives promise to comfort, ease and fruitfulness. Yet each season is as […]
He Only Wants One Thing
If there was one thing in your life that gave you the most comfort and security, what would it be? How easy would it be for you to give that one thing up if God told you to release it? The truth is, there's only one thing Jesus wants… and that's everything! Andy Taylor looks […]
Defined By My Father
When we grow up, we're usually defined by what we see, feel and taught. All external influences will shape our character and our worldview. The Bible is very clear that the children of God ought not to be defined by others, even themselves, but surrender to their Father in Heaven as seen through the Lord […]
When The Going Gets Tough
There is a famous hymn that speaks of Christ during life's troubles. The first verse goes like this: Will your anchor hold in the storms of life? When the clouds unfold their wings of strife? When the strong tides lift, and the cables strain, Will your anchor drift or firm remain? Morna Gillespie encourages us […]
The Greatest Question Ever Asked
What do you think is the most important question you could ask or be asked? Is it "will you marry me?" or "what's the purpose of life?" The question itself may seem important, but what gives it value is the answer! Derek Puffett tells us how Jesus' question to Peter on whether he loved Him […]
You Are A Letter From Christ
Letter writing has become less common with the introduction of text messages, emails and social media. Yet a hand-written letter can convey intimacy and personality; aesthetics that technology can fail to communicate. In like manner, believers are handwritten letters from Christ to the world. The way in which we can communicate the personality and love […]
Abide in Me
Are you tired? Are you worn out? Are you so busy working for God you've forgotten what it really means to rest in God? True disciples of Jesus will be known by their fruit. Yet so often we equate baring fruit with producing fruit. They may sound the same, but the differences are huge. We […]
Wake Up! Step Up! Stand Up!
The world is getting very dark. Ungodliness is growing exponentially, and we see how the newspapers, TV and the internet enforce this truth. It seems that Satan has free reign in the world. The most alarming thing, however, is that the Church (God's only contingency plan) is largely asleep! In the Old Testament, The Lord […]
Riches in Christ
Every believer has a heavenly bank account, one of the benefits of being a son and heir of God. These benefits are not financially based or guarantees for easy living; they are the spiritual benefits of being in Christ. The question is, how often do we make withdrawals? In Ephesians 1, Paul lists the amazing […]
I'm Starting with the Man in the Mirror
Knowing something is one thing, doing it is an another! It's funny how we associate knowledge with progress, when in fact it could be one of our greatest hindrances to maturity. The book of James is full of similar challenges. One well-known command is being doers of the word, not hearers only. Doing from a […]
There is Freedom
How free do you feel as a Christian? Jesus said, 'who the Son sets free, is free indeed', yet we can often slip back under the law and fall into legalism and fear. In 2 Corinthians 3, the Apostle Paul unpacks the glory of the New Covenant, a covenant that sets us free from the […]
Not in Vain
When we face unexpected difficulties in life or in our service for God we can get confused. Did we miss God's calling? Did we mishear Him? Was all our work in vain? In 1 Corinthians, the Apostle Paul encouraged the Corinthian Church. His firm reminder to them not to believe in vain the death and […]
Walls, Gates and Electric Fences
Walls, fences and hedges are useful in establishing clear boundary lines and protecting the residents within. Similarly, the Bible is full of boundary lines. God's boundaries were intended to set His people apart as a holy nation and also to protect from the dangers of sin. Ken Symington draws parallels from Nehemiah and the broken […]
Blessings in Adversity
So often we equate prosperity with blessing. The world's standards tell us that if you're financially prosperous, physically healthy and socially popular, you are blessed. Yet Jesus shows us from the Sermon on the Mount that the way to blessing lies through adversity. Jilly Lyon Taylor unpacks the Beatitudes from Matthew 5, and explains how […]
Life Without a Rudder
Like the ocean waves, our life can be unpredictable. In Acts 14:22 Paul says "We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God." With this in mind, we need to make sure that our life is steered and kept by someone far greater than us, that person being Jesus Christ. From her […]
Overflowing with Hope
Are you in a state of despair? Fear, doubt and confusion usually follow. They rob us of our peace, suffocate our joy and become blockages in our communion with God. The antidote to despair is hope! Paul Watson shows us from the scriptures that the substance of hope is purely based on God, and all […]
The Greatest Show on Earth
When you were a child did you go to the circus? Did you play make-believe? There is a part of all of us that enjoys a spectacle and a show, and appreciates a great performance. As we grow up we tend to put away the make-believe, but do we still perform for the world around […]
Lead Me in Your Righteousness
The Bible warns us that this world is no safe haven, and we shouldn't get too comfortable in it. Conflicting distractions and powerful temptations can be just a few ways the enemy will catch us off guard and cause us to stumble. Morna Gillespie unpacks Psalm 5, and shows us how the very righteousness of […]
The Man Who Cried About a Broken Wall
Nehemiah was a man who had a burden for the broken walls of Jerusalem, a picture of the spiritual condition of Israel during the reign of Artaxerxes, king of Persia. His fervent prayer in Neh 1 shows the burden he had to see God's blessing return to the nation. Like Nehemiah, we too have a […]
Stand and Fight
1 Peter 5:8 says 'be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.' With the same vigilance that prey have in the wild, we too need to be sober minded, especially in an age of distraction and deceit. Gary Gallagher encourages us to stand […]
Chocolate Soldiers
During WWII 'chocolate soldiers' was a pejorative term for soldiers who looked good, but could not fight and would melt in the heat of battle. Are you a chocolate soldier who will melt in the heat? Christians face the threat of persecution all around the world. Even in the West, we face increasing hostility and […]
Give Us Our Daily Bread
If anyone knows what we need most, it's Jesus. That's why He taught what to pray and also how we should ask for it! The Lord's Prayer may be so familiar to us that we've lost sight of what it tells us about the Father and our relationship to Him as children. Jilly Lyon Taylor […]
The Names of God Part 2
In these troubled times, intimacy with God is crucial. Intellectual knowledge of God is not enough. If we struggle to take hold of the truth that God is our Father, then the scriptures give us keys to knowing Him better. Following on from last week, Otto Bixler explains and unpacks the different names of God, […]
The Names of God Part 1
What's in a name? Did you know that knowing the names of God can help us experience Him in new ways? The names of God show us how He wants to reveal Himself and interact with us. Listen as Otto Bixler teaches on some of the names of God and what they mean to us.
The Cost of Discipleship
In Luke 14, scripture says that large crowds were following Jesus. He turned to them and said something they probably weren't expecting – he told them the cost of being a disciple, and he asked them to count the cost. Have you counted the cost of being a disciple? Listen as Paul Watson unpacks this […]
Does God Ever NOT Answer Prayer?
Does God answer prayers? We know the answer is yes. What about this question: Does God ever NOT answer prayer? Listen as Peter Horrobin takes us through the scriptures to answer this question, and look at why sometimes it seems that our prayers go unanswered.
Not Fair!
God has created us with a sense of justice. And when we are treated unjustly or unfairly, then it is our normal response to become upset or angry. But what happens when we feel that God has dealt with us unfairly? Listen as Paul speaks from Matthew 20, the Parable of the Workers in the […]
Learning To Choose The Good Path
Are you a Mary or a Martha? These two sisters both loved Jesus, but they related to Him differently in Luke 10. Martha was distracted with much work, while Mary sat at Jesus' feet. What about us? In times of busyness, is spending time with God a priority? To be honest, many of us identify […]
The Meaning of Holiness
What does holiness really mean? Does it mean going to church every Sunday, giving offerings, and being a 'good Christian'? With her usual enthusiasm, Jill Southern unpacks what God means by holiness, and challenges us to live that out in our day-to-day lives.
An Attitude of Gratitude
How often do we give thanks? When we do give thanks, is it an overflow of the heart, or do we feel obligated to be thankful? Listen as Morna Gillespie speaks on the importance of an attitude of gratitude and how it can affect walk with God.
Where is Your Strength?
When things get tough how do you respond? Are you someone who lives by the words 'dig deep' or 'no pain no gain'? The power of positive thinking can only get us so far. It is a human way of being strong, and is only as good as our own human strength and will-power. But […]
Carnal Life vs Spirit Life
Do we still think carnally? Is our Christian walk characterised by a constant struggle with sin and temptation that seems to have no end? 'Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.' Rom 8:8 'If the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the […]
Trust & Joy
Are you a slave to Fear? Is it holding you back from experiencing the adventures God has for you? Is it preventing you from walking in your calling? Jesus is greater than all Fear, and He wants to exchange your fear for Joy. The enemy can use some of the events in our lives to […]
What has God done for you recently? What has He said to you today? Do you believe that God is interested in touching your life on a daily basis? Living faith is walking in faith everyday, not just on a Sunday. Listen as Diane Watson teaches from Hebrews 11, on the importance of faith, and […]
The One Word That Changed My Life
Are you a Christian or are you just a supporter of Christianity? Is Jesus truly the Lord of your life? The phrase, 'Jesus is Lord' is commonly circulated in Christian circles, but how much does it actually change the way we live? Ken challenges us with the words of Billy Graham, "If Jesus is not […]
The Lord is My Shepherd
Psalm 23 is one of the best-known and most-loved psalms. "The Lord is my Shepherd" is just the first line, but have you ever taken the time to just ponder on the weight and meaning behind that statement? Listen as Paul Watson unpacks that one sentence and the awesome meaning behind it.
Trust & Obey
Do you trust God? This is an important question, for where we don't trust God, we haven't made Him Lord of that area of our life. Watch as Jill Southern explains what trust is, and how trust in God is built. She also challenges us with the statement that trust cannot be partial, it is […]
Spiritual Dyslexia
'God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.' 1 John 4:16 The passage in 1 John exhorts us to love. And often as Christians, we do our best to love people more, so we can be more in God. But is that the right order of things? Just as […]
Jesus Saves
Sometimes we can become a bit accustomed to the gospel message, and it loses some of its impact on us. Jesus Christ saves! The very definition of His name, Yeshua, means 'the Lord saves.' Every human being has been born a sinner, and has need of a saviour. Listen as Paul Watson reviews the truth […]
God Must be the Builder
What was your resolution entering into the New Year? Psalm 127 states that 'Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain.' If you are building according to God's will, it will happen. If we let God build the 'house' then it will have eternal significance. What are we striving to build and […]
Whose Word Do You Trust?
Colossians 3:16 says, "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly." But does the Word of God truly dwell in us? According to surveys, about 19% of church-going believers read their Bible every day. Meanwhile, the average adult spends 4 hours a day watching television, and 8 hours a day engaging with social media. […]
What is biblical fasting? God does not want us to fast for fasting's sake, but to humble ourselves before him with broken and contrite hearts. God would not ask us to fast if it had no spiritual significance. Could we be missing God's best for us and for others, if we fail to fast? Listen […]
Jesus Forgives Guilt
Do you still struggle with guilt and shame? All people sin, and we all fall short of God's standard. Many of us identify with the Apostle Paul when he speaks of the struggle between the flesh and the spirit: wanting to do the right thing, but not being able to. Thanks to Jesus, we can […]
Death: Entrance or Exit
Many people see death as a door marked 'Exit'. But for Christians, actually that door is marked 'Entrance'. Many people in the world fear death, but for Christians there should be no fear in death. This is only possible through the inheritance that Jesus bought for us on the cross. There will be no more […]
Just Right
Are you a people pleaser? Can you say 'No' to others? Where does this idea of people pleasing come from, and why do we do it? The truth is when we run around trying to please everybody, we end up pleasing nobody. We are called to live for God and please Him, and only in […]
The Power Of God In His Story
We often say that history is 'His Story.' Listen as Bible scholar and author Murray Dixon teaches on the impact of God's revelation of Himself to the Israelites on the nations, and its continuing effects on the world today.
Walking with God
Life's journey can often be complicated. Instead of journeying on a path that leads from A to B, it may feel like we're going around in circles, dealing with the same sins and issues over and over again. This can discourage us in our walk with God. But perhaps we need a change in perspective? […]
The Old Has Gone
Am I bearing fruit in my life? Why do I feel like a bad Christian? If I'm born again, why do I still struggle with the old fleshly nature? The doubt and fear raised by these questions can hinder the Church. Fixing our eyes on Christ, the author and finisher of our faith should be […]
God Talks
Our God is a talking God. "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me." (John10:27) As children of God, is our experience the same as described in Scripture? Just like with a person, to know God and recognize His voice, we need to spend time with Him. Jill Southern-Jones gives […]
Binary Truths
Grace vs Law. God's sovereignty vs man's responsibility. Jesus the Lion of Judah but also the Lamb of God. There are times when Scripture seems paradoxical, and yet the truth is not complete if either aspect is removed. Focus too much on one, or ignore the other, and we risk sliding into error. Jilly Lyon […]
Drawn Out
The story of Moses should be an encouragement for those who doubt God's saving power in the midst of turmoil and confusion. Just as Moses was drawn from the water by Pharaoh's daughter, a symbol of salvation and restoration, God will also rescue us in our own crises. Paul Watson draws out some of these […]
Christ Formed in You
What is the key thing that God desires to produce in our relationship and service to Him? Does He want us to proclaim the gospel? To heal the sick? To equip and teach followers of Jesus? The answer to all of these questions is Yes, but Paul Watson presents something even more important: God desires […]
Sheep in Process
Are you a sheep or a goat? You may think it's a strange question, but it has great significance when you understand it in light of Jesus' challenging prophesy in Matthew 25. Jen Perdriau looks at the characteristics of true followers of Christ and how looks can be deceiving!
How Do You Know It's God?
Many people ask 'how do you know when it's God speaking to you?' Murray Dixon shares from his wealth of personal testimony and experience the ways that God has spoken to him throughout his life, and how he knew it was really God. [Due to technical difficulties there is no video for this sermon. We […]
Life is Messy
Life is messy! Our own lives can be messy, but even when we look at some of the great characters of the Bible, we see that their lives were full of flaws and 'mess.' Where is God in the mess? Paul Watson speaks on how God still meets with us when our lives get messy, […]
Lessons from Achan
We can easily presume that our secret sins are harmless to those around us. We may know that the sins we commit in private are wrong, and we may even be trying to overcome them. But Jill Southern-Jones draws out from the story of Achan a key lesson on how no one can sin in […]
Disappointment With God
No one likes being disappointed! It's difficult enough being disappointed with people and experiences in life, but what happens when we are disappointed with God? We can become disappointed with God when He doesn't do what we expect. This type of disappointment may be unpleasant to experience, yet it has a significant part in our […]
The Fear of the Lord
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, yet how easy it is for believers to miss the true essence of godly fear in comparison to fear of the world. Jilly Lyon Taylor explores the scriptures and unpacks what the Bible has to say about the fear of the Lord!
The Ministry of Blessing
The word 'blessing' has become so common to us that we can take it for granted and not grasp the full richness of its meaning. Do you believe that blessing has the power to change lives and situations? Listen as guest speaker Rev Dr Russ Parker from Acorn Christian Healing Foundation explains the importance and the […]
Throw Jezebel Down
One of Satan's key strategies is to undermine the authority and position God has given to men to govern and steward in all areas of life. The shortage of spiritually mature men in the church seem to confirm the efficiency of his tactics. Paul Watson delivers a passionate message challenging men in the church to […]
How Not to Build a Conservatory
'For no one can a lay a Foundation other than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ' 1 Corinthians 3:11. In an age of liberal theology and the increase of compromise in the Church, Ken Symington brings a personal testimony that reflects the necessity of building the Church of God on the instructions and […]
Trust Him Who Judges Justly
The enemy often baits us to take offense and many of us bite and fall into unforgiveness and bitterness. Gary Gallagher teaches from 1 Peter 2, and about how believers can have the mind of Christ even when suffering for doing good.
My Portion
Are you content with your portion in life? All of us are probably guilty of desiring what we don't have, while failing to give thanks for the things that we do have.

Knowing the Love of God
Knowledge in your head or heart are two completely different things. Head knowledge will only satisfy our intellect, whilst knowing in our hearts allows us to experience the reality of the truth.

Giving Thanks in All Circumstances
If you had today only what you were thankful for yesterday, how much would you have? The Bible tells us to give thanks in all circumstances. Is it that God is teaching us to mind our p's and q's the way we teach small children? Why? Listen as Jilly Lyon Taylor explains how giving thanks […]

Out of all things, God cares about your heart. Listen as Jilly Lyon Taylor unpacks this simple, yet powerful, truth.

What Do You Seek?

Knowing Your Calling

The Light Of The World

Missing the Miracle
In the Bible we often see the disciples being amazed at the miracles that Jesus did.

Are We Running the Race?
We didn't choose God, He chose us and called us out to be separate. Are we really running the race marked out for us by God? or have we set our own path away from the things He truly intended for us?
Give God the Glory
God says, 'I will not give my glory to another' (Is 42:8). When someone praises us for our work for God, are we taking what should be God's glory for ourselves? Even just a little bit? We need to point the person to Jesus and what He has done for us every single time, otherwise […]
The Father's Business
It's sometimes easy for us to rely on our experience, training and earthly wisdom to work out the next step in our lives, but what makes us different from non-believers? Do we go about our Father's business as Jesus spoke about in Luke 2:49, trusting in the Lord regardless of the outcome? or do we […]
Prepared for Greatness

God's Loving Discipline
What does 'God's loving discipline' really mean? The Lord knows those things that are going to be harmful to us. He sets boundaries not because He wants to spoil our fun and have us live a boring life; it's to set us free to be able to live in freedom, joy and safety within those […]

Restoring God's People
In the last of her series in Nehemiah, Jill looks at ch 8. In previous chapters Nehemiah had rebuilt the walls, but the rebuilding of the walls was to provide a place of safety and security in order to restore God's people back to Him. God is far more interested in the restoration of human […]

This message is packed with challenging statements and an inspiring exhortation to believe that God is who He says He is! Our prayer is that your spirit would rise up and fully take hold of who God says He is so that you will be able to stand on the rock of truth when the […]
God is Our Father
Of all the characteristics of our God… this one has the potential to touch us most deeply. Many of us have been wounded by our human fathers, and even those of us who had good fathers did not have perfect ones. Our perfect Father is able to give us all the love, nurture, protection, provision […]
God is Faithful
In part 4 of our series on the character of God, Jill speaks about God's faithfulness. "Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful." – Hebrews 10:23
God is Love
We all know that God is love, but have we allowed this truth to sink deeply into our hearts and spirits so that it changes us from the inside out? This is part 3 in our series on the character of God.
God is Holy
When was the last time you spent time dwelling on how Holy God is? In this message Darren speaks about the life-changing impact that simply spending time in His holy presence can have on us.
God is Just
This is the first in our series on the character of God. In this message Jill speaks about how incredibly just our God is. "Will not the Judge of all the earth do right?" – Genesis 18:25
Apart From Me You Can Do Nothing
Jilly speaks from John 15 and how God prunes us and shapes us, and reminds us that apart from Him we can do absolutely nothing. Perhaps this is something we need reminding of a bit more often!
The 'I Am's of Jesus
He is the Great I AM. His name is Jesus. He is the Way, the Truth and the Life. This is a message rich in biblical truth! Jilly expands on what it means for Jesus Christ to be the Way, the Truth and the Life. As you listen, ask God to speak new revelations into […]
Shining in the Darkness
In this message Jill inspires us to come out and be separate in the way we live and in the stand we take for Jesus.
How Do We Stand When the World is Shaking?
As the ways and systems of the world get darker and darker, who can we trust? How do we stand as Christians when the world's ground is shaking? What kind of ground are you standing on?
God of the Second Chance
Isn't it wonderful that even when you think you've totally blown it, God is prepared to give you a second chance? Be encouraged and challenged by this message, based on the story of Jonah.
Power of the Blood
If you've ever had a blood transfusion, you may have received a bit more than you bargained for as Murray explains at the beginning of this message. He then unpacks some incredible facts about blood before going on to highlight the magnificent power of the blood of the one who shed His blood for us. […]
Making Wise Decisions
Using biblical examples, Jill offers us many practical ways to make good decisions as well as how to avoid making bad ones.
We Can Make a Difference!
Jesus has called us to be salt and light in a dark world. If we walk as He walked, reflecting the likeness of the Son of God on this earth, we will make a difference!
Hidden Sins
If we knew what the consequences of our secret sins were, we would probably stop doing them much more quickly! In this message Jill explains how our secret sins do not only affect us, but they also affect our families, our churches and our communities. Secret sin is not secret to God. Let us examine […]
A Spectacular Victory!
Jill speaks about what an incredible miracle it was when the walls fell flat in Jericho and how wonderful it is that Joshua's God is also our God! May you see His spectacular victory in your life as you follow His guidance on how to bring down anything and everything that stands in the way […]
Out of Terrible Shame & Into the Hall of Fame
God has a wonderful way of restoring those who feel they have totally failed in life and the story of Rahab the ex-prostitute is a great example of this. As you listen to this message, allow God to completely remove guilt and shame from you as you repent and fully receive His forgiveness for anything […]
What's Your Promised Land?
God has a promised land for each one of us, a special plan that only we can enter in to. In this message Jill gives us practical advice from the book of Joshua to help us step into our promised land. Sometimes in order to enter it we must take a giant leap of faith […]
God's Sheep Pen
How do we enter God's sheep pen? Jesus says He is the gate, the only gate. When we enter into God's sheep pen we find ourselves with a good shepherd. The shepherd provides for the sheep, He decides where they will graze, and He protects the sheep. Listen as Jill unpacks profound truths about the […]
Shepherds, Heal the Flock!
Jill speaks about how God is a healing God – He is the good shepherd who tends to His flock. In Ezekiel God speaks about how he is against the shepherds who do not properly tend to His flock. He says that He Himself will go after the sheep and look after them. This prophectic […]
How To Forgive When You Can't
This may be one of the most practical messages you ever hear on forgiveness. Often we are told that we need to forgive, but in this message Jill equips us in HOW to forgive those people who have hurt us the most – especially when we feel like we can't. Incredible healing can take place […]
Pentecost & Beyond
Murray speaks about the incredible events from Acts chapter 2 as the followers of Jesus were filled with the Holy Spirit and then went on to turn the world upside down. He also tells an incredible story about a Grandma who invested in her Grandson's life in an unusual way!
Developing Discernment
One of the things that Ellel Ministries has sought God for over the last 25+ years is discernment. Discernment is essential to staying on track with God and especially to identify what God is doing and what the enemy is doing. This is not only true for our personal lives and for when we are […]
How to Boil a Frog
This is one of those messages that once you've listened to it, you will never forget. Ken exposes the enemy's subtle works that have taken place over the last 50 or so years. The temperature of society's moral water has changed dramatically, but it hasn't changed quicky – it has changed gradually. Did you notice? […]
Look Up, Wake Up, Speak Up!
This is a story about a man who thought he was above God. A heathen, pagan King, transformed by God's power. Nebuchadnezzar was never the same after he looked up, woke up and spoke up! If God can transform this man's life, there is definitely hope for all of us!
They Didn't Bow, Bend, or Burn
What a story! Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego take the stage in this part of the story and what an inspiration they have been to Christians through the ages. This is courage and utter dedication to God in action. We have so much to learn from men like this when it comes to how to stand […]
Dare to be a Daniel
Daniel was a man who uncompromisingly stood for truth and was willing to side with God when the penalty could be death. Will you dare to be a Daniel?
No Compromise
Speaking from the book of Daniel, Jill urges us to live a 'no compromise' life for Jesus Christ, even as the world around us becomes more and more hostile to biblical truth.
20p Piece (Bonus Short Video)
In this short video Jill tells the story of when God asked her the question "Will you be a 20p piece for me?". God is seeking humble people whom He can use in what ever way He chooses for His Kingdom purposes. Let us all have the humilty to do, to say, and to be […]
Jesus and His Disciples
Murray always has interesting points to make about the scriptures, pointing out things that we wouldn't usually see. With His exceptional knowlegde of the Jewish culture and the context of the writings, Murray speaks about Jesus and His disciples. Murray Dixon is one of the main teachers on the NETS Programme. He and His wife […]
Strange Fire
In this video Jill speaks about the difference between strange fire and God's fire in the wake of the olympic torch being lit for London 2012.
Sometimes we treat the Christian life as more of a sprint than a marathon, but Darren tells us that those who do this are unlikely to finish well. In this sermon, Darren gives us 8 practical tips to enable us to endure to the end. He bases his 8 points on a recent hiking trip […]
The Power of the Cross (Bonus Short Video)
In this short video Jill speaks about the incredible power of the cross. She speaks about who we are in Christ and the authority that is ours in Him and encourages us to walk in it each day. Jill tells us that because of the finished work of the cross, we do not need to […]
Pivotal Prayer
Have you ever had prayers that went seemingly unanswered? Do you get disappointed when God does not seem to be doing what you ask? Perhaps you've sometimes wondered whether there really is any point in prayer at all? In this message, Jill shows us from scripture the power of prayer, and how important prayer is. […]
Pivotal Prayer
Have you ever had prayers that went seemingly unanswered? Do you get disappointed when God does not seem to be doing what you ask? Perhaps you've sometimes wondered whether there really is any point in prayer at all? In this message, Jill shows us from scripture the power of prayer, and how important prayer is. […]
God's Way or Ours?
Have you ever found yourself complaining in your heart about the circumstances you find yourself in? Listen as Jilly encourages us to be at peace when God's way seems different to ours.
Are You Ready?
This poignant message is a challenge to every believer – to make sure we are ready when the bridegroom comes. The parable of the 10 virgins makes it clear that we need to have plenty of 'oil in our lamps' when he returns, but what does that actually mean? How can we get enough oil […]
Unshakeable Faith
Warning: This message may radically increase your faith. The stories Jill shares in this message will give you great inspiration to believe for the impossible, especially in the area of finances! When Jill received the vision to start NETS it seemed way beyond what was possible in earthly terms. Still, Jill moved forward with the […]
Bringing Your Baggage To Jesus
We all come to Jesus with quite a lot of baggage! In this message Jill speaks about some specific types of baggage such as fear, rebellion, abandonment & sexual sin that we need God to remove from our lives. And just so you know… this is not really Shaun's life story!
The Words of the Cross
In this powerful, touching and challenging Good Friday message, Jill takes us through each of Jesus' words as He hung on the cross. We hope you have been blessed this Easter as you have celebrated the glorious death and resurrection of our Lord and Saviour and all its wonderful implications for us now and for […]
Pressing On! (NETS Celebration message)
Jill Southern-Jones is the Director of Ellel Pierrepont and the NETS Programme. In this message she exhorts NETS trainees to 'Press On' (according to Philippians chapter 3) as they move on from NETS, more equipped to fulfil the call and destiny God has on their lives. In this message, Jill gets practical when it comes […]
The Elephant In The Room
Whenever Ken Symington drops in at Pierrepont, sermon listening figures go through the roof! In this incredibly timely and poignant message, Ken confronts what he calls 'the elephant in the room'. As the fundamental doctrines of historical, biblical Christianity are being replaced by theories such as evolution and 'nice-sounding' arguments that promote universalism, why is […]
What's Your Foundation?
As a Christian, what should our foundation be? What should we believe and how do we know it's true? What is truth? This is a crucial message for anyone who professes Christ as their Lord. Have we seperated out of our belief system that which is not founded on the prophets and the apostles, as […]
Responding to Jesus
Jilly begins by explaining the '40 days of breakthrough' that we are currently doing at Pierrepont which includes fasting something (not necessarily food) and reading the New Testament in 40 days (among other things). After reading the book of Mark in 4 days, Jilly noted all the different ways people responded to and reacted to […]
Overcoming Envy
If the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil, what is at the root of the love of money? Could it be envy? Perhaps we don't think of ourselves as having a problem with envy, but how often do we see somebody else with something or doing something and rather than […]
Running Your Race
If you are wondering what all the laughter is about, you need to know that Jill often likes to have members of staff 'acting out' the things she is talking about. In this case (starting after about 9 minutes) we have Inus (Pierrepont's Operations Manager) trying to run his race as various other members of […]
In this fast-moving, truth-packed message, Peter Horrobin explains the difference between life (bios), life (psuche) and life (zoe)! Not only is 'Zoe' the name of Peter's new-born granddaughter, but it also describes the 'life in all it's fullness' that God wants us to have (John 10:10) and has provided for us through the death and […]
How To Prepare For The Presence Of The Almighty
Though we are thankful for God's blessings at Pierrepont, we are more hungry for His presence. There is nothing quite like the reality of knowing and sensing the tangible presence of the Almighty God whom we love and serve. How can we prepare our hearts and our lives for more of Him? Jill gives us […]
What's Your Perception?
Murray gave this encouraging and inspiring message as part of the very first MicroNETS Track 2 programme, at the beginning of 2012. Is your glass half empty or half full? Does it matter? Murray tells us that our perception of what is happening is absolutely vital, and that the way we perceive or view our […]
Healing & Destiny (NETS Celebration Message)
"Jesus saved me and He healed me and I'm walking in my God given destiny!" – Is this your testimony? This is what Christ Jesus wants for all of us. There is more to the Christian life than saying a sinner's prayer and hoping that one day we will make it to heaven. Jesus' death […]
More Grace!
Jilly expands on the whole topic of Grace, uncovering more aspects of it and challenging us to learn more about it, and to receive more of God's unlimited power in our lives. May we entrust ourselves totally to Jesus who alone is able to declare us righteous sons and daughters of the living God, and […]
How Does God Restore Us?
In this sermon, Ian shares some delicate parts of his own personal story of restoration and offers some powerful encouragement about the way God restores us, not to mention some very practical tips to help us along the journey. For those who have been through difficult times, Ian reminds us that God will use these […]
Have we really understood the fullness of grace? How has grace manifested itself in your life? What does 'grace' mean specifically in reality to you? Listen as Jill takes us on a journey through the scriptures and opens up new dimensions of the power of God's grace that we may not have seen – such […]
A Visit To The Dentist
You'll be on the edge of your seat for this entire message! Peter Horrobin is the Founder and Director of Ellel Ministries International. With great enthusiasm, humour and profound wisdom, Peter talks about three things in this sermon: 1. A visit to the dentist 2. How to solve the world's economic problems 3. How to […]
The Battle For Beer Sheba
In this fascinating and eye-opening sermon, Murray takes us back to a rather extraordinary 'battle' that took place in 1917. Looking back, perhaps God was speaking in ways that those involved did not understand at the time… Murray Dixon is one of the main teachers on the NETS Programme. He and His wife Rosemary are […]
By Faith Or Not By Faith?
Before ending this sermon with one of the most touching, challenging and powerful missionary stories you have ever heard…. Murray begins by turning our attention to Hebrews 11, probably the most well-known chapter in the bible on faith. However, this is not your typical message about faith. In this sermon, Murray exposes how certain characters […]
5 Reasons Why You Cannot Live Without The Fear Of God
Peter is the Founder and Director of Ellel Ministries International. In this sermon he explains why the person who is 'living' without the fear of God is actually not living at all.
Jacob: The Great Confrontation
Do you have any broken relationships? People you haven't spoken to for many years? In part 6 of Jill's series on the story of Jacob, she arrives at the great meeting of Jacob and Esau after approximately 20 years of being apart. Of course the reason they haven't seen each other for so long is […]
Jacob: Wrestling With God
In this part of Jacob's story, we see him in great fear and distress as he hears that his brother Esau (whom he earlier deceived) is on his way to meet him with 400 men. Jacob cries out to God to save him from the hand of his brother. Jacob prepares many gifts to go […]
Jacob: Fleeing From Laban
From this part of Jacob's story, Jill (with help from the Pierrepont team who also get the microphone during this talk!) unpacks some incredible points about the call of God on our lives and how God will often fulfil His purposes despite our character flaws. Jill also points out how careful we must be with […]
Melchizedek Superseded
Murray wows us in this sermon as he gives us a tour through scripture and teaches us about 'Jesus the Great High Priest'. Murray explains why Jesus is spoken of in scripture as a priest 'in the order of Melchizedek', and reveals incredible insights into the significance of this, shedding new light on many of […]
Jacob: Who Is Under The Veil?
In part three of Jill's series on the story Jacob, the Pierrepont drama team emerges once again. Though we don't have a video, you may hear the actors a few times (and definitely some laughter!) as Jill runs through the rather unusual wedding scene that takes place at this point in Jacob's life! Here we […]
Be Very Careful…
A person's last words are often their most important. Joshua was the type of man whose last words are certainly worth listening to! In this sermon, Jilly speaks from Joshua 23 and emphasises Joshua's words in verse 11 "Be very careful to love the Lord your God". Often we use the phrase 'be careful' when […]
Jacob: Staircase To Heaven
Jill is back for part two of her series on the story Jacob. She speaks about the dream that Jacob had when he was on the journey to his Uncle Laban's in which he saw a stairway to heaven and received the special promise from the Lord about all that was to happen in Jacob's […]
Jacob: Sowing Deception
In part one of this series on Jacob, Jill expounds the story, drawing out practical points from the way Jacob and his family handle their relationships. Isaac and Rebekah had a dysfunctional marriage, and each of them had their own 'favourite' son. Furthermore, the home environment shaped Jacob into a man who would steal his brother's birthright, […]
What About My Human Rights
Humans all over the world are crying out 'What about my human rights?'. In this sermon, David Cross (Regional Director of Ellel Ministries Western Europe) challenges us by asking whether or not we really have any human rights. Our 'human rights' are said to be 'inalienable' – that is that we cannot be separated from […]
Who Do You Say Jesus Is?
Using the miraculous testimony of Andrew White 'The Vicar of Baghdad', Murray tells us that if the Lord calls, He also equips, provides and fulfills. He encourages us to be serious about our relationship with God, especially as we are clearly in the end times.
Stand Up And Fight!
We are no longer civilians. However, many of us have signed up for a Christianity that has very little fight. Darren uses the British army as an example of what it means to be trained for war, and finds the most incredible similarities between they way the army are trained and how Jesus has told […]
Breaking Free From Passivity
"To this end I labour, struggling with all his energy, which so powerfully works in me." – Colossians 1:29 Though we labour with God's energy and not our own, the Christian life is by no means passive. This is a binary truth which means that we need to understand both seemingly contradictory things in order […]
The Crown, The Sceptre & The Orb
Our Heavenly Father is a King. We are citizens of a Kingdom. Listen as Roger Pook (Regional Director for Ellel Ministries in Central and Eastern Europe) speaks about what it means to have a Kingdom, and the significance of the Crown, the Sceptre and the Orb. Roger speaks about the correct way to approach royalty, […]
The True Price Of Your Bible
How much did you pay for your bible? £10? £15? Maybe even £25? Did you shed any blood for it? Perhaps we sometimes take the bible for granted in a day when we can purchase one from a shop with no hassle or with the click of our mouse button from the comfort of our […]
Hidden Law
Josiah was a King who started well, continued well and ended well. He did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, not turning aside to the right or the left. Josiah made sure the temple was repaired and that the people were making their offerings and worshipping God. In Josiah's 18th year, the […]
Don't Look Back
In this extremely challenging sermon, Jill speaks from Philippians 3, exhorting us to forget what is behind and to look forward to our new life in Christ Jesus. We need to learn from our past mistakes and failures, put them under the blood of Christ and move on. We do not need to suffer from […]
Confidence In God
"Your words will be tested, and what you believe will be tested". Darren starts with these challenging and intriguing words. Speaking from Ephesians 3, Darren asks us if we truly know our access to the throne room of God. Are we dwelling there or are we dipping in and out of our inheritance? Do we […]
Never Give Up!
Never Give Up! This is Ken's exhortation to followers of Christ across the world. Ken reminds us that we are in a battle; that the whole world is under the sway of the evil one, and that we will have to persevere if we are to overcome him. Church history is built on a framework […]
Nehemiah: The Battle Is Not Over Yet
When we are involved in building the Kingdom of God, the enemy never gives up! In this last sermon in the Nehemiah series, Jill speaks from chapter 13 where we see God's people desecrating the sabbath, and causing problems for Nehemiah. Nehemiah showed courage as he rebuked the people and commanded them to honour God […]
Nehemiah: Returning To God
You will definitely need to get your bible out to make the most of this one! Jilly Lyon Taylor continues the Nehemiah series in chapter 9 as the people return to God, His Word and His ways. She speaks about the importance of being in the Word of God, fasting, worshipping God for who He […]
Nehemiah's Joy!
Jill continues her series on Nehemiah and picks up in Chapter 8. What do the people do when the wall is completed? They bowed down to worship God and they read from the book of the Law of the Lord. Jill explains that this was God's true purpose for building the wall. God wanted His […]
Nehemiah: When Opposition Comes
If we are building the walls of God's Kingdom, opposition will surely come. What are we supposed to do when it comes? Should we stop building the wall to reason with our enemies, or should we ignore them and carry on? Nehemiah knew what it was to face opposition. Time and time again Sanballat & […]
Nehemiah: Building The Walls
Jill encourages us and teaches us to learn from the story of Nehemiah as to how we can 'build the walls' according to the vision God has given each one of us. Jill unpacks Nehemiah's story in an incredibly fresh way, drawing out powerful lessons for us who are building the Kingdom of God today. […]
How We Overcome Pride
Jill begins by pointing out that pride is the root of all sin. James 4:6 tells us that God actually opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble. None of us would want to be opposed by God! If we want to walk the journey of following Christ and begin conformed to His image, […]
Three Kings Who Failed
Jill gives an incredible challenging message about three Kings who started very well and ended very badly. Jill encourages us to see how we can avoid the mistakes of Saul, Solomon and Uzziah, highlighting the absolute importance of finishing well! Jill finishes her message by pointing out the kind of things that can distract us […]
NETS Celebration – Slay Your Giants
Jill gives an inspiring message to NETS trainees as they go out from Pierrepont, exhorting and encouraging them to 'slay their giants'. Jill believes that its time for those who think they are the most unlikely to stand up and raise their voice in the world. The world is desperately in need of Godly leaders, […]
The World Has Gotten Into The Church
Darren Gallagher is the Operational Director at Pierrepont. In this message he suggests that there has never been a more materialistic, consumer driven society than we are currently seeing in the Western world. He exposes the 'It's all about me and how I feel and what I want' attitude that has taken over our society […]
Lay Down Your Life!
With her usual passion and fervour, Jilly gently encourages and challenges us to lay down our lives for the one who laid down His life for us. Jesus sent us out as sheep among wolves which means a hostile environment. Those who truly stand for what Jesus stood for will undoubtedly be hated as He […]
The Fear of the Lord
Do we have a rightful fear of God today? Do we truly know the revealed God of the scriptures? Jill gives a powerful and very timely message about the Fear of the Lord, how absolutely important it is for us as followers of Jesus, and how that holy fear of God (reverence) flows out of […]
Sinking Sand
Despite the poor sound quality (apologies for this!) this is one of the most powerful and timely sermons given at Pierrepont in one of our Friday morning services in recent times. Ken offers a very fresh and powerful prophetic word for the body of Christ as he talks about Sinking Sand, Withering Grass, Fading Flowers, […]
Are we at peace with God?
Jill challenged NETS trainees and staff at Pierrepont with the question "Are we at peace with God this morning? She then goes on to describe the things that rob us of peace, how the type of peace the world tries to give us is so different from that which Jesus gives, and how we as […]
Only Believe
From Mark 5:36 and 1 Peter 2:1-10, Jill exhorts us to 'only believe'. She challenges us on whether or not we have the kind of faith that can move mountains and encourages us to believe in the God of the impossible!
Lord, Unless You Go With Us We Don't Want To Go!
At the beginning of this sermon, Jill challenges Pierrepont staff, NETS trainees and everybody listening online with this poignant question: "Are we going to work for God or with God this year?". Speaking from Exodus 33, Jill shares how we need to have the same attitude as Moses who said to the Lord "If your […]
Give Thanks!
Jilly gives a powerful and uplifting message about giving thanks as she unpacks Psalm 100 in such a fresh way and continues to speak about God's character and why He loves it when His children give Him the thanks He deserves. This message is guaranteed to lift your spirits as you take your eyes off […]
Seek First the Kingdom and Don't Worry
Speaking from Luke 12:22-34 Jill gives a powerful and challenging message about the fact that 'Do not worry' is not a suggestion but a command! God wants to take us to a place where we simply don't worry about things but that we simply seek His Kingdom.
The Kingdom and the Soil
For months before giving this message, Jilly's particular prayer has been 'Lord let your Kingdom come in my life'. From this place, Jilly challenges us to make a fresh commitment to give up all for Him and for His Kingdom. Matthew 13:45-46 – "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine […]
The Beatitudes Are Beautiful Attitudes
In her usual inspiring and challenging way, Jill deals with the questions "What is the Kingdom like?" and "What are Kingdom people supposed to be like?". Jill takes a very practical look at the kind of lifestyle choices we are going to have to make if we are to be people with Kingdom values and […]
