Twists and Turns
8/19/2024
In the hope-filled sermon titled "Twists and Turns," Pastor Joe communicates an uplifting message of resilience and trust in divine guidance. Expressing his love for the UK and gratitude for the opportunity to address fellow believers, he discusses his long-standing experience as a minister along with his personal family life. Pastor Joe brings attention to the inevitable challenges faced in familial spaces and offers consoling reassurance of God's unwavering presence throughout highs and lows. He underscores the essential necessity of seeking God's wisdom to navigate life's complexities, sharing his personal journey as an illustration of the profound trust required in the Lord. Drawing from biblical narratives, Pastor Joe uses Solomon's request for divine wisdom as an example to inspire the congregation. He elucidates the limitations and imperfections inherent to human understanding, as opposed to the pure, peace-loving, and understanding nature of God's wisdom. Addressing potential interference from satanic influences, the pastor coaxes the congregation to resist worldly perspectives and completely submit to God's wisdom. In conclusion, Pastor Joe prays for the congregation and foresees God's blessings showering upon the UK, specifically Milton Keynes. He implores divine favour, protection, and wisdom upon his listeners to equip them to overcome any hurdle they encounter. The sermon was a powerful reminder of the significance of seeking God's wisdom and wholly trusting Him, influencing believers to depend on divine intervention rather than their comprehension.

Upside Down - Blessed are the Meek
4/22/2024
So often the world's approach to a difficult situation is to fight back. It is a dog-eat-dog world where the weak will be trampled on. The Kingdom Culture approach is counter-cultural, it’s Upside Down, it's not the kingdom of the world, but Jesus’ kingdom is a better way. In the "Sermon on the Mount" Jesus sets out a different approach. He makes it clear that his followers should be meek. But what does it mean to be meek? Find out in this message.
