In the second in our series about being connected, we look at our relationships with each other. We think about how we are not meant to be alone - but are made in the image of God for relationship.

This is our final sermon in Matthew's Gospel. Though Jesus has completed everything that he has to do through his death and resurrection, the story has not ended. Because Jesus gives us a commission to 'Go and make disciples of all nations baptising them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit'. First preached: 4th May 2025. Speaker: James McNay.…

Matthew 28: 1-15 - The Empty Tomb 27:16

6 weeks ago27:16

27:16

In this sermon, we continue our series in Matthew's Gospel and consider the empty tomb. The women who go to the tomb early on the Sunday morning find it empty - and then meet with the risen Jesus. The guards fall into a faint when they see the angel of the Lord and the stone rolled away. After speaking to the priests, they accept a bribe and spread the rumour that Jesus' body was stolen by the disciples. We are therefore confronted with the empty tomb - and we have to decide for ourselves what happened as we weigh up the evidence. First preached: 27th April 2025. Speaker: James McNay.…

Throughout Holy Week in 2025, we travelled through Matthew 27 as Jesus went to the cross. In this sermon, we think about the choice the crowd made to release Barabbas and not Jesus - and how the innocent took the place of the guilty. First preached: 16th April 2025. Speaker: James McNay.

Matthew 26: 57-68 - Jesus before the Council 23:33

10 weeks ago23:33

23:33

In this sermon, we see Jesus being falsely accused and condemned by the High Priest and the Council. The priests and elders were unable to see beyond their own power - and saw Jesus as an inconvenience and someone to be got rid of at any cost. We think about how we are to stand for truth - even when it is inconvenient - and how much Jesus went through, just for us. First preached: 30th March 2025. Speaker: James McNay.…

Matthew 26: 47-56 - Jesus is betrayed 27:41

27:41

In this sermon, we think about Jesus being betrayed by Judas. We note how Jesus' demeanour has changed from agony to peace as he centres himself in the Father's will. And we see an example for us in prayer. And we see how amazing it is that Jesus is willing to go through betrayal and desertion as he goes to the cross - something that only he can do - and him alone. First preached: 23rd March 2025.
