A Greater Sense of God - Part 3: A Declining Culture
On January 28, 1986, 7 Space Shuttle Challenger astronauts exited gravity and entered eternity. President Reagan gave quite a speech that day, paraphrasing the poetry of an Air Force volunteer: they “slipped the surly bonds of earth … and touched the face of God.” To touch the face of God suggests intimacy, as with someone we know well. In the Bible, we often find expressions such as “seeking God’s face” to describe prayer, and occasionally “the softening of his face” which suggests soothing, possibly by touching. One of the most amazing revelations about God in the Bible is that he wants you and me to become intimate with him - and the goal of this book, starting with God’s revelation to the prophet Ezekiel, is quite simply to help that become a reality.

60 Minutes to Raise the Dead: Part 6 - Which 'Boast' is Excluded?
Thursday Aug 27, 2020
Thursday Aug 27, 2020
An evangelical sermon has been described as 'thirty minutes to raise the dead.' This, of course, refers to the Bible's description of non-Christians as being 'dead in their sins' (Ephesians 6:1) - in other words, as spiritually dead as a result of having no relationship with God, the giver of all life – and the desire of the preacher for the hearer to find new life in, and through, Jesus Christ. This series, Sixty Minutes to Raise the Dead, comprises 6 talks, each of 10 minutes duration, which explain in turn each of the five major words in a Bible text (Ephesians 2:8-9) that sums up most clearly how it is that a ('dead') person finds new life in Jesus Christ, God's son and our saviour. And hence the title!
