Digging Deeper: Good and Angry - Can God be both?
1 & 2 Kings | Special Event | 1/09/2025 | John Woodhouse
We've come across some confronting scenes in Kings. God's judgement against his Old Covenant people results in human armies killing and destroying. How do we reconcile the idea of a gracious forgiving God with the violence that we see in the Old Testament? John Woodhouse, former principal and Old Testament lecturer at Moore Theological College helps us think through what it means to believe in the one just and gracious God of the Old and New Testaments.
Real Faith
James 2:14-26 | EV Church | 21/04/2024 | Andrew Hayes
James 2 can be a confronting, and even confusing passage. It talks about how to be saved, and it seems to say something different to what we see in John, or Paul. Is salvation by faith, or do we also need to add good works? We see that James and Paul do not contradict each other, but rather they fight against different errors. The truth is we are saved by faith, not what we do. Yet real faith shows itself in what we do. A challenge to consider if our faith is real.

Parable of the Sower
Luke 8:4-15 | EV Church | 17/02/2013 | Tim Baldwin
Tim Baldwin unpacks the parable of the sower. Parables are not given so that everyone understands, but rather (v9) to speak like Isaiah, as a form of judgement. Truth is concealed from the casual listener, who ultimately are judged for ignoring Gods truth. God is a speaking God and His word (the seed) is delivered and heard in many ways. 1. Path - the devil takes away the word of God. 2. Rocky ground - receive the word with joy, then fall away when testing comes 3. Thorns - hear the word, but allows life's worries, riches and pleasures to take priority 4. Good soil - hear & retain the word and through perseverance produce an abundant harvest of godliness with a passion for mission. Pray that you listen to God's word and have your life shaped by it to become more like Christ.
