In Philippians Paul writes about the occasion when Epaphroditus fell ill, nearly died and had to be sent home. Paul does not hide how he felt, but describes the emotional roller coaster that he went through. Likewise, we need to cope with our emotions when we go through difficult times. What practical steps can we take to manage our emotions in the situations we face?

Physical Wellbeing is a common term that is used today. But what does God have to say about it? In this message, Moses looks at the story of Elijah in 1 Kings 19, to show us that God takes an interest in our physical wellbeing, and therefore we should too. God supplies all that we need to enhance it – food, rest and exercise. And because of the Lord Jesus’ triumph over death, physical wellbeing need not be and end in itself, because we too will conquer death through our union with Him.

In this opening message of the series, Phil teaches how wellbeing has always been part of God’s plan for human beings. Jesus invites us to come to Him and He says that if we will come and surrender to Him, He will give us rest. Phil then looks at what it means to have a ‘wellbeing mindset’ and teaches out of Psalm 23 that God really does want us to know and to live in the reality of the truth that “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want, he makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul.”

Habakkuk’s final prophetic response to crisis is one of joy. Initially it doesn’t seem fitting, but as he reflects on God’s desire to save His people, his heart is quickly filled with a joy-filled response, even though the situation remains challenging.

In a short, intense book, Habakkuk gives us a prophetic response to crisis. Today, Andrew shows how crises expose our idols, contrast them with the Lord—and bring us to a response of silent wonder before him.

Habakkuk is a prophetic response to crisis, and in the first section of his prophecy, he shows us the response of faith: how to wait for God’s judgment, knowing that we will be found righteous on the basis of our trust in Him.

We all have a light: a source of hope we turn to when all around us is darkness? What’s yours? And is it bright enough?

In a gloomy time with invasion imminent, Isaiah proclaims a message for God’s people of light shining in the midst of darkness. A message of hope. A message of Immanuel – God being with us. Joe Macnamara helps us take a look at that today, knowing that this message is as needed now as it ever was.
