  • A Fugitive Spares His Rival

    03/07/2019 Duration: 55min

    David was a great warrior, not to mention a talented musician, and king Saul loved him right away. Scripture says Saul ‘loved him greatly’. But that was before Saul heard the women singing David’s praise. That’s when everything changed. Saul’s ego rose up and his personal insecurities and jealousy took over. “What more can he have but the kingdom?” From that day on, Saul tried repeatedly to kill David. And David, the anointed champion became a wanted fugitive, fleeing for his life, month after month, year after year all over the wilderness, hiding in caves and in enemy territory. Funny thing is, during all that time David had numerous opportunities to take Saul out and claim the promised throne for his own. But he never did. Wonder why.

  • A Man After God's Own Heart

    25/06/2019 Duration: 48min

    This week we look at David’s life as an adolescent chosen by God to lead Israel. What made David different from his brothers that God would direct Samuel to anoint him king? Was it only to impact David’s own life so that he would be glorified? Or was it that God might be glorified through David? David loved God and pursued Him all his days. Because of that, David knew where his strength came from. Our introduction to Goliath of Gath and the battle that ensues is dramatic and exciting. And it teaches us how to live our lives with a desire to pursue a God whose heart is for us if we only trust in Him.

  • God Rejects A King

    19/06/2019 Duration: 01h02min

    Steadfast leadership is difficult. It can be hard to know the right decisions to make. In Christ, we are all called to lead people somewhere in our lives, and we are going to experience times of difficulty, and moments for critical decision making. Our response to those experiences can reveal where our heart truly belongs. God can, and does work through our lives, and the lives of the people around us. But let’s not confuse that fact with the degree of love we may have for God and our seeking after His own heart. God creates opportunities, but our responses to those opportunities can either glorify Him or glorify ourselves. Saul may have had it wrong, but we can get it right!

  • God At Work

    11/06/2019 Duration: 50min

    And she named the child Ichabod, saying, “the glory is gone from Israel.” The glory days are all gone, because the glory is gone. These are the worst of times. The news of the battle being lost and the two priests, Hophni and Phinehas being slain, along with the news of the loss of the Ark of the Covenant all converges to create this picture of utter disaster of the rock-bottom sort. These aren’t the good old days. These are the worst of times. But here’s the thing. Even in the worst of times, God is at work!

  • God Calls A Prophet

    02/06/2019 Duration: 56min

    As the story of Ruth is a beacon of hope in the dark days of the Judges, so the story of Hannah is a bright light against the dark backdrop of 1Samuel. It’s a story of two families. It’s a story of a nation. It’s a story of great privilege, responsibility, and loss. It’s a story of salvation. It’s a story of an old man with little left but regret and a young boy given by God to the nation and called by God to lead his people safely home to the kingdom.

  • Ruth - The Kinsman Redeemer

    29/05/2019 Duration: 01h51s

    The very first line of the story of Ruth locates it in the days of the Judges; men and women like Deborah and Gideon and Samson. So, we might expect the story to be similar? It’s not! The narrative of Judges is a litany of depravity; the downward spiral of people trying to live outside the boundaries of a good life. It’s dark. But the story of Ruth is like a great light shining out of the same night as a beacon of hope. Ruth is the story of a woman, but more precisely, it’s a story about women; two women in particular, one old and one young, one a Jew and one a foreigner. It’s the story of the bond between an unlikely mother and an unlikely daughter, and the solemn religious oath of covenant that bound their lives together for all eternity. The story of Ruth is a magnificent love story able to capture and inspire even the most cynical of us. It’s a story of commitment and faithfulness and kindness and care. It’s a story about goodness. It’s a story of justice, honour and valour, and sacrificial love. It’s

  • THE GOD OF SAMSON: He Calls & Uses the Weak

    23/05/2019 Duration: 53min

    Samson is well known as the strong man of Old Testament Israel. Commentators tend to look at his life and bemoan that if only he had been obedient to God, what might have he accomplished! But is that all God wants us to learn from Samson? Can't that be said for us all? What can we learn about the mysterious ways of the God of Samson?

  • Great Is They Faithfulness

    16/05/2019 Duration: 46min

    As we continue our journey through the book of Judges we find that the Israelites were once again under God’s discipline because they had done what was evil in the Lord’s sight. This time, God used King Jabin of Canaan, along with his commander, Sisera, to oppress His people. But once again we will see the pattern unfold of the people crying out for relief and God providing a deliverer, although this time the deliverer would be someone the Israelites may not have expected. We will see that God gives His people gifts and works through them so that He might receive glory. God positions ordinary people and provides them with extraordinary gifts to bring Him glory.

  • Gideon: Jars Of Clay

    16/05/2019 Duration: 01h05min

    The story of Gideon is a story of renown. A young man beating out wheat in his father’s winepress. It’s difficult, hot and dirty work made ten times harder because you’re confined to the depressions of the earth (winepresses), away from the beautiful Mediterranean breeze sweeping the open threshing floor, but not away from the blazing Mediterranean sun beating down on you. All because those Midianite marauders could swoop down at any time when you're least expecting it and steal any grain they catch glimpse of. Our text begins with a description of a people so oppressed that they were seeking refuge in caves and animal dens to say alive, living in fear of the Midianite hoards that would pounce like locusts. It says that the number of camels the Midianite raiders had couldn’t even be counted, there were so many. And they would take everything including all the livestock and even the tents. It must have been an absolutely horrible form of existence. But what could be done? What should be done? You might say,

  • How Did I End Up Here

    03/05/2019 Duration: 48min

    A good start doesn’t always mean a good end. Israel started out strong, but compromise led them down a slippery slope time after time. The effects were always harder on the next generation. What are we doing today to ensure the faith of tomorrow’s generation? Is compromise leading us to where we wouldn’t want to end up?

  • Victorious Faith

    21/04/2019 Duration: 58min

    We’re in the book of Joshua and we’re talking about victory, and about faith, and about how that all works. We are free to ask God for any good thing, but we can only claim what He has promised us in His Word. We really need to know what those promises are and what they aren’t. Furthermore, there is an unmistakable linkage between faith and obedience in Scripture and that is front and centre on display in the book of Joshua. What about us today? Both faith in His promises and the devoted obedience that springs from that faith are how we move forward in our lives with Christ; as we prayerfully appropriate the provision of God by faith for each moment of each day.

  • Saving Faith

    20/04/2019 Duration: 59min

    This Sunday we are talking about the initial battles in the conquest of the promised land and the amazing account of the walls of Jericho coming down. But we are also going to be talking about Rahab. One of the things about Rahab’s story is that it is completely unessential to the storyline which ‘reads better’ without it. If we skipped chapter 2 and went right from chapter 1 to chapter 3, the logical progression of the story of the entrance into the land would flow rather nicely. So, why is the story of Rahab there? Because it is a wonderful story of the salvation of a Gentile sinner saved by grace through faith.

  • A New Beginning (Joshua 1,3,4), March 31,2019

    03/04/2019 Duration: 53min

    Joshua is a book of new beginnings, for Israel and a new generation poised to take the promised land. And 2019 is a new stage in the journey of our church. As of this past week, our former Pastor Ed Henderson has gone on to be with the Lord. And another young man is coming to candidate this Spring for the position of associate pastor. When God raises up new leaders for the church, it is for new applications of the timeless gospel. Do you need a new beginning as well, to lay hold of the life and promises Jesus Christ offers you, to live by the power and presence and blessings of God?

  • Choose Life

    29/03/2019 Duration: 01h10min

    The nation of Israel, their lives, their well-being, and their dwelling in the land was all entirely contingent on their allegiance to God, their worship of Him and Him alone, and their willingness to follow Him in His ways. The relationship is represented to us in Scripture like a marriage. Those are exactly the types of terms that are used to describe it. As a people, they entered into a solemn covenant relationship with the LORD, and for them to ‘turn’ to ‘other gods’ and follow the ways of those other false gods was to ‘prostitute’ themselves and to ‘yoke’ themselves to those false gods, whose ways (what we sometimes call ‘lifestyle’) is an abomination to Him. Isn’t it amazing we tend to have this notion that we can just ignore and dismiss God, the One Who is called the Author of Life, the One Who made us and made life in its every detail, and then even as we obstinately pursue whatever it is we want to do with no regard for what He says, remain resolute in our expectation that we are going to exper

  • Don't Be A Balaam

    29/03/2019 Duration: 53min

    Balaam is one of those biblical characters that appears rather obscure, and yet some of the most beautiful messianic prophecies in the Bible rolled off his lips. While at the same time, his biblically exposed heart stands as a monument in Scripture warning us all, of the folly of a life-course bent on personal gain that aligns itself against the Lord.

  • The Promise Of God's Provision

    10/03/2019 Duration: 50min

    The Promise Of God's Provision by Faith Baptist Church

  • Rebellion

    06/03/2019 Duration: 01h01min

    As we have looked into the lives of the Israelites, how God delivered them from slavery in Egypt, provided for them in the wilderness, and brought them to the promised land, we have seen God’s patience and faithfulness over and over again. In this session, we will see that the Israelites’ failure to trust God and enter into the land He was giving them was not a small misstep but outright rebellion against Him. We will also see that Israel was not alone in their rebellion. We too have rebelled against God. God created us for His glory, but we all fall short of His glory, and the consequence of our sin is death.

  • A Picture of Atonement

    26/02/2019 Duration: 01h32s

    The Book of Exodus describes how sinful people were rescued and reconciled to holy God through a deliverer He Himself sent. Now, we turn our attention to the Book of Leviticus and see that God provided a high priest for His people. Year after year, this representative brought a sacrifice to atone for the sins of the people. We will see that God appointed the Day of Atonement as a way for the people of Israel to be in relationship with Him and as a picture of a better way to come—a way that sin would be dealt with once and for all when the perfect high priest and sinless substitute would take our place and pay the punishment our sin deserved.
