New sermon series: Songs from the Heart

Songs from the Heart

Finding Christ in the Psalm…

Starting on 27th June 2021 we are going to dip into the book of Psalms. This is very appropriate as we come out of lockdown due to the writers honesty, laments and yet praise of God. Each of the Psalms that have been chosen have a strong connection to Jesus, either referring to Him or have been quoted by Him. The sermons should be relevant to the challenges that people are facing and yet listeners should come away with a deeper understanding of Jesus and know that He is revealed through all of scripture.
