This week is Christian Aid week. It’s a week that makes a huge difference for the work that they can do, both with the emergency work, like responding to the earthquakes in Nepal, and the ongoing projects such as the work in Ethiopia that is highlighted in this Christian Aid week.

This was the question that the congregations at Cornerstone were asked this Sunday (26 April 2015). The Bible readings from Acts chapter 4 and John chapter 10 spoke of God going to any lengths to include people, but recognised that we needed to want that for it to be real. So what one word would you use to describe that Christ-centred, resurrection community. Check out our facebook page to see what we said.
This will always be the latest news. It was news on that first Easter Sunday, when no-one could quite believe it. Jesus’ followers and those who wished him gone were all quite sure that he was dead. You don’t hang on a cross in that way and survive it. But the truth that began to dawn on them all was that God had done what was promised and had broken through death and Christ is alive.

It’s getting closer. The theory is beginning to become only too real. The hopes and fears of a nation, indeed the whole of creation, may rest on the response of one young woman. How is she supposed to respond? How does she come to say ‘yes’? Have you been in a situation where you have been...
We’re still with John the Baptist, but this time we have the foretelling in Isaiah of the mission Jesus set out for himself. It was one of meeting with those who may have thought they had no hope seeking to heal what had been broken. This may be hard, but what are the heartbreaks you have known...
There are so many accounts in the Bible about God’s people finding themselves in wildernesses of varying kinds. Often they spend years wandering, not sure where God is leading them or how they will know when they have arrived. What they often seem to find is the wonder of God, not in their arriving, but in...
Advent is a time of waiting. Through the history of God’s people there have always been times of waiting and wondering just where God is to be found. We look at our world today, just as God’s people have always done, and can sometimes just see the chaos. Sometimes it is through that chaos that creativity can break...
