Demonstrating love

The last handful of weeks have been interesting, to say the least. On the back of the sad demise of a celebrity who took her own life last month, we were urged to be kinder as a society. This month the same social media site that echoed with people calling for grace reports episodes of…

I Am

I think one of the main aims of our meeting together is to remind ourselves and each other that God is who he says he is! The ‘I Am’ declarations of God are both powerful and practical. The title is linked to the unique name of God, Yahweh; the name that declares the uniqueness of…
