	<description><![CDATA[Why is a story about a man being swallowed by a huge fish and vomited out recorded in the Bible? This sermon begins by looking at the importance of the Book of Jonah, connecting it to references, echoes and allusions in the New Testament, as well as back to the flood of Genesis 6-9. It then asks what was it that motivated Jonah to attempt – absurdly – to flee the God of Heaven, who made sea and dry land. The answer is not simply that he was an “Israelite nationalist” who resented mercy coming to a heathen nation. Rather, he knew this was a sign of something else.]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Britain is clearly in a time of great moral decay. But there is no new thing under the sun, and our present condition is remarkably similar to that of Judah in the days of Isaiah. This sermon looks at the degeneracy of Judah, the devastating consequences, and the root cause - apostasy from God. It then draws parallels with modern Britain, concluding that only a return to God through the death and resurrection of Christ can save us from our seemingly terminal decline. National renewal will not come through quick fixes, but through individuals, families and churches repenting to God, worshipping sincerely, cultivating gratitude, getting a multi-generational vision, and building a genuinely beautiful culture as an alternative to the culture we have been swimming in for decades. ]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[The sermon paints a very different picture of manhood than we see in the modern world. Looking at the examples of John the Baptist, Elijah, and the Apostle Paul, it shows how Scripture commends men that stand firm - tough, independent-minded men who are rooted in divine truth rather than human approval. Ultimately, the rejection of biblical manhood is rebellion against God’s order, and we are called to follow Jesus Christ, who is the epitome of true masculinity, speaking hard truths in love, and redeeming manhood not for self-glory, but for sacrificial service.]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[This sermon explores how God foretold the coming of Christ’s Kingdom centuries before Jesus’ birth. Looking in particular at Daniel chapters 2 and 7, we see earthly empires - Babylon, Persia, Greece, and Rome - judged by the Ancient of Days and replaced by the Kingdom of Christ, established at the time of his ascension. This Kingdom begins small, yet will grow to fill the whole earth - even in this age. Isaiah 9 then adds more detail, showing us the character of this Kingdom - a Kingdom of peace, of righteousness and which shall not end.]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[This sermon traces the promise of Christ from creation to incarnation, showing God’s unified plan of redemption. Beginning in Genesis, it reveals how the Spirit, Word, and Light foreshadow Christ’s coming as a new creation. Humanity’s failure under Adam creates the need for a Redeemer-King, promised through the seed of the woman. Further promises are given to Abraham and David, but every potential candidate for this Redeemer-King fails, falling into sin and rebellion. The conundrum is resolved in the incarnation: God Himself becomes man. In Jesus Christ, all promises converge. Emmanuel - God with us - defeats sin, restores true kingship, and establishes an everlasting kingdom.]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Why did Jesus ignore the scribes and Pharisees and stoop down to write in the floor? What did he write? What caused the accusers of the woman to be smitten in their consciences and to leave one by one? This sermon shows how the story of the woman accused of adultery in chapter 8 of John’s Gospel provides the answer to the question stalking the chapter 7: who is Jesus? Avoiding the trap they set for him, Jesus points to the law of casting the first stone (Deuteronomy 17:7), which followed the law relating to witnesses (Deuteronomy 17:6) to demonstrate to these men their lawlessness — and in so doing showing that he is the true Lawkeeper and Lawgiver, and the true Christ of God. ]]></description>
