With My WholeHeart - Psalm 54:6
by SPCK - James Jones
Psalm 54:6 In the world of the psalms the worship of God involved the offering of gifts. These were signs of the worshippers’ dedication to God. There were rules about the quality and purity of the offerings and the sacrifices. As we draw near to God in our searching after him we…

A Bit Like Jesus - Faith in Alpha
by SPCK - Robin Gill
WEEK 5 Faith Faith in Alpha I cannot claim to read Alpha News very often. It can seem too much like propaganda: enthusiastic items about local Alpha groups, which do not always translate into accurate information at local level. However, just before putting the latest Alpha News …

by SPCK - Elaine Heath
Engaging the Powers Chapter 8 The Reconciliation of All Things When I was in junior high, my brother and I spent many Saturday afternoons mesmerized by old vampire movies. White-knuckled, we watched as the handsome vampire hunter descended the staircase into the crypt, wooden sta…

Hymn: We trust in one we name as God
Hymn: We trust in one we name as God
by Andrew Pratt
We trust in one we name as God, above all else we see; the ground of being, God of love, will hold and set us free. And all our worship, praise and prayer, can't magnify the grace that God is pouring all the while on us, within this place. Verse 3 follows Tune: BELMONT Metre: CM …

Numbers and Deuteronomy for Everyone - Snakes, and Progress and Another Attitude to War
by SPCK - John Goldingay
Snakes and Progress and Another Attitude to War NUMBERS 21: 4- 35 Yesterday in church I was aware, as I sometimes am, that many people make the sign of the cross at certain points in the service. I was never taught to do that, and I would feel self-conscious about trying to do it…

Mark The People's Commentary - ‘BLASPHEMY against the HOLY SPIRIT’
by BRF - Dick France
‘BLASPHEMY against the HOLY SPIRIT’ For Satan or against him? In verses 23–27 Jesus offers what might be called a ‘common-sense’ reply. The scribes’ accusation does not make sense. Why should Satan want Jesus to drive out his own demonic forces. That would be to divide and weaken…

John The People's Commentary - Jesus - The One from Above
by BRF - Richard A. Burridge
Jesus - The One from Above This last section is ‘free floating’ like 3:16–21; again it is unclear who is the speaker. John the Baptist started talking in 3:27 and some translations continue his speech through to 3:36, while others make this a comment by the evangelist…

John The People's Commentary - The Truth Will Make You Free
by BRF - Richard A. Burridge
The Truth Will Make You Free The debate at the end of the Feast of Tabernacles continues between Jesus and “the Jews”. As often, his hearers are divided. Many of them have come to believe in him and he now addresses those believers (8:30–31)…
