‘This is how God showed his love among us: he sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins’

Sung praise: In Christ Alone

This virtual choir a cappella performance features the voices of 48 singers from 14 countries. It took 5 months and many dozens of work hours.
Sing along!

In Christ alone my hope is found,
He is my light, my strength, my song;
this cornerstone, this solid ground,
firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
when fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My comforter, my all in all,
here in the love of Christ I stand.

In Christ alone – who took on flesh,
fullness of God in helpless Babe!
This gift of love and righteousness,
scorned by the ones he came to save
till on that cross as Jesus died,
the wrath of God was satisfied,
for every sin on Him was laid;
here in the death of Christ I live.

There in the ground his body lay,
light of the world by darkness slain,
then, bursting forth in glorious day,
up from the grave He rose again!
And as he stands in victory
sin’s curse has lost its grip on me,
for I am His and He is mine –
bought with the precious blood of Christ.

No guilt in life, no fear in death,
this is the power of Christ in me;
from life’s first cry to final breath,
Jesus commands my destiny.
No power of hell, no scheme of man
can ever pluck me from His hand;
till He returns or calls me home,
here in the power of Christ I'll stand!

A word from Bob

It may be the week after Easter, but Christ is still risen!
Listen to Bob Telford explain why the resurrection is a vital truth.

Martin’s series is still here…

Martin Erwin (CEO of Counties) recently gave a short daily thought while working through John’s gospel.

The series was called S.O.A.P. for the Soul (that’s Scripture, Observation, Application and Prayer) and you can view the videos on YouTube here.

Daily devotionals

Max Lucado’s daily page with brief encouraging talks.

A couple of links for younger ones…

Have a look at Virtual Sunday School here.
