This weekend we continue our series on 2 Samuel.  In the next talk, Simon Chaplin will be speaking on the topic, “The return of the King”, from chapter 19 verse 1 to chapter 20 verse 36.

At our 5pm Saturday service we will be celebrating the baptism of Ethan & Gracie Gray, and we would love you to join us for this special event.

Also during our 5pm Saturday service, we’ll have our weekly question and answer time, and Simon will be answering these questions:

  1. Given that the world of 2 Samuel seems so different to the New Testament, are we only studying it because it points us to Jesus?
  2. Where is the Ark of the Covenant located now?
  3. Is the Jonathan mentioned in 2 Samuel 17:17 Saul’s son?
  4. Has Absalom’s Monument ever been discovered by archaeologists?
  5. Did David know that it was Joab who killed his son Absalom, and how did he react to the news?
  6. Why did Joab choose a Cushite to take the news of Absalom’s death to David?
  7. When Ahimaaz told David that they’d won the war, why did he say “the Lord your God,” not “our God?”
  8. Is it still a sin for a Christian to be in a same-sex relationship if they are bisexual?
  9. Are all rulers chosen by divine right, and if so, is democracy a myth?
  10. How was Jesus able to walk on water?

Our 8am Sunday service will be a Morning Prayer Sunday service.

If you’re wanting to check out our church we’d really love you to visit us on Saturday at 5pm for a contemporary service with kids’ program and dinner afterwards, and our new youth group Alive! meets straight after dinner. Or come along on Sunday at 8am for a Prayer Book service.

See you at 5pm this Saturday or 8am this Sunday, God willing!

This weekend, we continue our series on 2 Samuel. In the next talk, Jodie will be speaking on the topic, “War and peace”, from 2 Samuel chapter 17 verse 1 to chapter 18 verse 33.

At our 5pm Saturday service we will have an opportunity to meet one of our church members, which is always a great encouragement to us all.

Also during our 5pm Saturday service, we’ll have our weekly question and answer time, and Jodie will be answering these questions:

  1. How could God be contained in the Ark of the Covenant when it is an object made by humans?
  2. How did David know that Ahitophel’s destruction was God’s will?
  3. Should we follow David’s model of praying curses down on our enemies?
  4. Did David truly submit to God’s will, or did he simply pray and then assume that God’s will aligned with his own?
  5. Given that Hushai deceived Absalom, is it OK to lie and deceive in order to do good?

Our 8am Sunday service will be a Morning Prayer Sunday service.

During our 5pm Saturday service, we’ll have our weekly question and answer time, and Jodie will be answering these questions:

  1. Did Adam and Eve have children in the Garden of Eden before being banished?
  2. Why did David keep Joab in charge of the army since Joab kept taking matters into his own hands?
  3. Since God does not like chariots, was Absalom disobeying God by riding in a chariot?

  5. Is it still sinful for two people to be dating in a homosexual relationship if the relationship does not include any sexual relations?
