Pastor's Word for February
Dear Friends,
Recently, someone asked me whether the economic downturn had made more people turn to God, and I said that it was probably true, materialism certainly cannot satisfy the soul, and look how shallow such things have proved to be.
However, I genuinely believe that, irrespective of such hardships, many people are truly wanting to hear of a God who is real and with whom they can have a living and vibrant relationship. The comforting fact is that this is what the God who is there actually offers to each us. Some of course will ask whether such a God is there anyway ...

But… the pianist carried on playing ... and Jesus, that is 'the Son, is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word.' Heb 1:3
