Luke 18:9-14 | EV Night | 24/01/2021 | Andrew Heard

Money and Eternity
1 Timothy 6:3-21 | EV Church | 7/07/2024 | Grahame Fuller
The teachings on money in 1 Timothy 6 don't make sense to people who think this life is all there is. But the passage shows us there's a life that's truly life, which is the one in the age to come in eternity with our God, and this changes our whole approach to money.
Saturday EV - Week 4: Revelation 12-13
Revelation 12-13 | Saturday EV | 5/11/2016 | Andrew Heard
Andrew Heard describes the very real spiritual dimension that the bible refers to in Revelation 12, highlighting that despite what we may see as ordinary, that there are spectacular spiritual celebrations in heaven as people decide to follow Jesus. Pray that you can counter the accusations of Satan (a massively spiritual battle) by believing and trusting in the Father, thankful that Jesus has paid for our sin, and growing to be more like Christ.

Luke 8:40-55
Luke 8:40-55 | EV Church | 24/02/2013 | Craig Dobbie
Is there a God and does he care? Nature can over power us, and when we are threatened by sickness & death we are more inclined to call out to God. Who do you trust in a broken world. Jairus and the woman both put their trust in Jesus (small as it is) and Jesus responds in compassion. - True faith rests on knowledge and is meant to grow. - True faith leads to a person throwing themselves on Jesus completely. - People who came to test Jesus went away trapped and confused, but those who come to him on their knees find salvation Yes there is a God and Jesus is the consistent character to look to, to find Him.

Grumbling in the Wilderness
Judges 19-21
Judges 19:1-2125 | EV Church | 7/07/2013 | Andrew Hayes
Andrew Hayes unpacks the last 3 chapters of Judges. In those days Israel had no king, and everyone did as they saw fit. These chapters demonstrate the depravity of humanity proving that we are not basically good people. Judges starts with the death of Joshua, and Israel's disobedience in failing to conquer their promised land and ends with Israel in civil war against Benjamin, in desparate need of a king! When you are a slave to evil forces the arrival of a king is such good news. Jesus is the King that unlike human leaders provides salvation, rescuing us from sin.
A Year of God's Word
1 Peter 1:23-2:3 | EV Night | 29/12/2024 | Andrew Hayes
A new year! What are your aims and hopes? Andrew Hayes shows us what God says about his word in the book of Isaiah, and challenges us to make 2025 a year of God's word. Be fuelled for a year of sharing it and reading it by these 4 truths: 1. The tragedy of Isaiah's day: God's Word is neglected (Isaiah 5:24) 2. Hope for the last days: nations streaming to hear God's word (Isaiah 2:2-3) 3. Encouragement in the waiting days: God's word is unfailingly reliable (Isaiah 40:8) and powerful (Isaiah 50:10-11) 4. The challenge for us today: be people who tremble at God's word (Isaiah 66:2) Sermon Slides https://evchurch.info/20241230-slides
Romans 6:15-23
Romans 6:15-23 | EV Church | 28/07/2013 | Tim Baldwin
Christ died to sin, so His death is ours. If we are joined with Jesus then His resurrection is ours. Rom 6:15 Paul asks "If Gods grace is so powerful to forgive any sin, then why does it matter whether we change?" You are a slave to whatever you obey. God has laid claim to us, so it's natural to want to obey & desire God with thanksgiving - rejoicing to be a 'slave of God' Just because we have experience of sitting under flawed authority, it shouldn't cause us to assume that getting out from under authority is freedom. We were designed to sit under authority and true freedom comes from sitting under good authority. Being united with Christ, lets us see becoming slaves of God being good and living in true freedom. We have become free to serve God in whatever circumstances we are faced with, free to share the gospel, caring for people's spiritual needs, free to be content in Christ.
Luke 7:18-28
Luke 7:18-28 | EV Church | 10/02/2013 | Andrew Heard
Andrew Heard preaching on Luke 7:18-28. Even John the Baptist, who Jesus claim was the greatest man that ever lived had doubt. Expecting "the coming one" to bring fire, and hearing the reports of what Jesus was doing gave him doubt. Jesus did come to bring judgement at the cross, but before then focused on seeking out the remnant and to seek and save the lost. Doubts that are founded in the wrong teaching, lead to a rebellious doubt, but John's doubt wasnt a rebellious doubt, but rather one which was inquisitive / weak. He answers John disciples, saying I'm the one mentioned in Isaiah (Isa 35:3, Isa 61) Luke 7 was written to bring us face to face with who Jesus is. He healed the sick, brought people back from the dead and offered forgiveness, engaging with a gentile, window, & a sinful woman.
