The Cost of the Cross

Emily Sahakian

The cross: That central moment in time when the whole discord of redemptive history resolves into God-glorifying harmony. We try to understand its depth, and attempt to put into words its wondrous formula, but how much do we understand the cost of the cross?

Why Do Bad Things Happen To Good People?

Louise Wilsher

Can you think of a recent tragedy in your life? How does it make you feel? Sometimes it’s hard to know why tragedy strikes; there are no solid answers.

When bad things happen, we might question why a loving, omnipotent God allowed them.

What is Lent?

Joel Mennie

In its most traditional form, Lent serves as a time of preparation in the run-up to Easter and is observed from Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday. In many churches the bright colours which followed Christmas will be replaced by more somber colours of black and purple, and it is the custom to remove the flowers and to choose songs and hymns which also reflect the season.
