The Band at Engage Worship Conference

Yesterday (Saturday) seven of our church band members went along to the Engage Worship Day that was help in Luton. It was a fabulous time of engaging with God in different ways which we are not quite familiar with at our church - this opened up a lot of discussion as well as helped those who attended to see worship from a different perspective and to see God from different perspectives. You may begin to see some of the ideas gained from the conference begin to emerge within our church services at The King's Church, Wisbech - as they may help you to engage with God too!

Bite-Sized Sermons Launched

We have launched a new sermon series called 'Bite-Sized Sermons' This series will only exist in video format and consist of a short clip of approximately 60 seconds taken from a recent sermon. the idea behind this series is to enable internet users to easily share the content amongst their social networks and contacts and to gain a nugget of truth contained within the sermon.

Each Bite-Sized Sermon video points the viewer back to the church website where they will be able to watch the entire sermon in order to hear the point being made in context.

So, get sharing the Bite-Sized Sermons amongst your friends today.

Spiritualists, Mediums and the Occult

Have you ever been involved in the use of tarot cards, ouija boards or horoscopes? Have you had your fortune told or visited a medium or a psychic? If you have, you are certainly not alone! Or are you the type of person who thinks all this is a load of hocus-pocus mumbo-jumbo? Again, you are not alone!

In Christian circles, topics like this are often avoided or side-stepped but this is a mistake! Chrisitians believe in the spiritual realm (Heaven, The Holy Spirit, Angels etc). Often the focus is rightly on the positive elements of the spiritual realms, but we ignore confronting and dealing with the darker aspects of them at our peril! The Bible tells us that:

"Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour." 1 Peter 5:8

The whole area of consulting with mediums comes up in 1 Samuel 28 where King Saul chooses to consult with a meduim rather than with God. In Clive Butcher's sermon series about 'The Life of David' he coveres this whole subject and gives a fantastic insight and Christian perspective to what the occult is, wether it is ok to consult mediums or not and what we should do if we have done so in the past.

Two sermons about the whole subject can be heard (live-streamed) directly from our website.

Bible School

Many of us are enjoying the monthly 'Bible School' that is run by Mike at Octavia View. This is what Anna has said about her experice so far:

"The Bible School on Saturday was really good. I have been a Christian for 36 years but have never really got a handle on how all the Bible fits together and at last I’m managing to understand what goes where and why and how it fits in history."

If you have been to Bible School, we would love to hear your comments and feedback. Please post a comment on this blog below. Thanks.
