YouTube Video VVVhci1McDd6U3VQUXRIV0FURkhsY2h3LkdMVlJ3dVJjOXFj Pastor John Baptiste looks at coming to the Lord empty handed.  

The bible is full of stories of people carrying things when they meet God that they then need to leave with the Lord.

None of us come to the Father empty handed.  We all come to him carrying something that Jesus wants to take from us, he wants to replace, to restore or use for his glory through his healing, his truth and his peace.

Are you empty handed?  What are you carrying that you need to leave or give to Jesus?

Being Empty Handed
Pastor John Baptiste with the fourth instalment of his series on The Gospel is Good News for Everyone; which looks at how we should relate to the LGBTQ+ community.

This time he turns to the New Testament to see what Paul is really saying when he refers to homosexuality.  Does he really single out homosexuality?

#Romans1:16-32
#1Corinthians6:9-10

Good News For Everyone Part 4
When Jesus went to the Cross, it was women who showed up for him.  The only disciple there was John.
Peter, the disciple on whom Jesus was going to build his church was nowhere to be seen.  Judas Iscariot had sold Jesus out.
Paul tells us that we were chosen in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight (Eph 1:4). How does that relate to his disciples, including Judas?
Ralph Gill looks at the character of Peter and Judas.  What did it mean for Peter to deny Jesus?  Was Judas responsible for Jesus going to the Cross?

Peter and Judas Iscariot
The Gospel of Jesus Christ is Good News for Everyone – Or it’s not Good News at All.

In part three of his four-part series on human sexuality and gender identity, Pastor John Baptiste continues to look at the issue of how the church of today should interact with those who identify as LBGTQ+.

Leviticus 18 is one of the so-called clobber passages.  What do we do with the fact that the majority of the sexual prohibitions are aimed at heterosexuals?

Good News For Everyone Part 3
The Gospel of Jesus Christ is Good News for Everyone – Or it’s not Good News at All.

In part two of his four-part series on human sexuality and gender identity, Pastor John Baptiste continues to look at the issue of how the church of today should interact with those who identify as LBGTQ+.

Whether we agree with their lifestyles or not, a group of people are trying to live their lives whilst encountering hate, bigotry and exclusion because it does not conform to historical norms.  

How do we navigate what the bible clearly teaches and offer this truth in a loving and compassionate way?

Good News For Everyone Part 2
The Gospel of Jesus is Good News For Everyone, or it's not Good News at all.  Over the past 60 years there has been a seismic cultural shift in society's attitudes to sexual orientation, gender identity and same sex marriage.

This is an area which is vast, disputed, emotional contested and controversial both within and outside different church denominations.

Pastor John Baptiste opens the first in his new mini series looking at the issue of gender identity and human sexuality and how the church of today responds.

In the Name of Jesus
In his Easter Sunday address, Pastor John Baptiste looks at the Resurrection of Jesus from three angles: -
1. Before the Crucifixion - the reaction of the Jewish Religious Leaders who planned His execution and rejected the resurrection
2. After the Resurrection - looking at the disciples who at first struggled to believe that it actually happened
3. After the Ascension - Saul of Tarsus, who became Paul the Apostle, who persecuted those first Christians who believed in and preached about the resurrection

Bind Up The Brocken Hearted
