Matthew 26: 57-68 - Jesus before the Council
Monday Mar 31, 2025
Monday Mar 31, 2025
In this sermon, we see Jesus being falsely accused and condemned by the High Priest and the Council.
The priests and elders were unable to see beyond their own power - and saw Jesus as an inconvenience and someone to be got rid of at any cost. We think about how we are to stand for truth - even when it is inconvenient - and how much Jesus went through, just for us.
First preached: 30th March 2025.
Speaker: James McNay.

Matthew 26: 47-56 - Jesus is betrayed
Monday Mar 24, 2025
Monday Mar 24, 2025
In this sermon, we think about Jesus being betrayed by Judas. We note how Jesus' demeanour has changed from agony to peace as he centres himself in the Father's will. And we see an example for us in prayer.
And we see how amazing it is that Jesus is willing to go through betrayal and desertion as he goes to the cross - something that only he can do - and him alone.
First preached: 23rd March 2025.

Matthew 26: 36-46 - Gethsemane
Monday Mar 17, 2025
Monday Mar 17, 2025
In this sermon, we consider Matthew 26: 36-46 and Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane.
We think about the agonies that Jesus went through and his temptation to not go through with the cross. But we see how he submits himself to his Father's will and says 'Your will be done'.
First preached: 16th March 2025.
Speaker: James McNay.

Matthew 26: 31-35 - Jesus predicts Peter's denial
Monday Mar 10, 2025
Monday Mar 10, 2025
In this sermon, we hear of Jesus predicting that all the disciples will desert him before he goes to the cross. We see how Jesus sees this as a fulfilment of Scripture and also the disciples vociferous denials that they will do such a thing. We reflect on how though the disciples are well-meaning - that they are also human and cannot do what they want to do - something Paul reflects in Romans 7. Despite this, Jesus also gives the disciples encouragement that after he is risen, he will meet them again at Galilee - therefore there is hope of forgiveness and reconciliation for the disciples.

John 13: 1-30 - Jesus washes the disciples feet
Tuesday Mar 04, 2025
Tuesday Mar 04, 2025
In this Evening Service reflection and as we were celebrating Communion, we focused on the Last Supper from John's gospel. We asked the question as to why it was so different from the version in the other three gospels and wondered at the amazing example Jesus shows in washing the disciples feet.
First preached: 2nd March 2025.

Matthew 26: 17-30 - The Last Supper
Tuesday Mar 04, 2025
Tuesday Mar 04, 2025
In this sermon, we think about how Jesus chose the Passover Meal to be his 'last supper' and how through taking the bread and wine he points towards the cross and the resurrection.
First preached: 2nd March 2025.
Speaker: James McNay.

Matthew 26: 1-16 - Jesus is anointed
Tuesday Feb 18, 2025
Tuesday Feb 18, 2025
We continue our series in Matthew's gospel, and we read of Jesus being anointed with expensive perfume at Bethany. In this sermon, we see Mary's great act of devotion sandwiched between the chief priests plotting to kill Jesus and Judas plotting to betray Jesus. And we ask the question - which is the bigger waste? The perfume poured over Jesus head or the three years that Judas has spent with Jesus which hasn't softened his heart. Hopefully we see that Mary's act of great love for Jesus is not a waste - and that we too ought to love Jesus wholeheartedly.
First preached: 16th February 2025.

Matthew 25: 31-46 - The Final Judgement
Monday Feb 10, 2025
Monday Feb 10, 2025
In this sermon, we look at Jesus final teaching on the end times and the separation of the sheep and the goats.
We think of the consequences of rejecting Jesus by not showing the fruit that shows we are a true disciple but also the glorious inheritance of the kingdom for those who trust in Jesus and walk with him.
First preached: 9th February 2025.
