Latest Sermon - "The Bible And Personal Assurance" - Subscribe to our weekly MP3 Podcast -- Subscribe to our Podcast in iTunes

Join our mailing listI'll give you the questions, and then we'll launch into them. First of all: what is the best way to learn the Bible? A very good question. Then secondly, it follows on well from that, a specific question: why is there no mention of dinosaurs in the Bible, and what happened to them? I'm not that old to remember, but some people might think I'm a dinosaur! But we'll try our best to answer that one. The third question: please give the explanation of four terms - apostate, backslider, carnal Christian, and false convert. The person asking that question continued by saying: 'It concerns me that I was given an assurance that I never had. Are we causing people to make false professions?'. Then a fourth and final question for tonight is from a person who says: 'I can't sense anything (feelings) in the Christian life', but there is no sin apparent or obvious to them in their life; 'how do you work through this?'. And they end the question by talking about 'dry periods', dry periods that we experience in our Christian life. So there's quite a lot to get through tonight... [Listen or read more...]

Through Editor's Eyes:  The 1859 Revival In IrelandThrough Editor's Eyes: The 1859 Revival In Ireland
As reported by the local press (selected and edited by Samuel Adams)

This book is a chronicle of what the local newspapers reported during the 1859 Revival in Ireland. Here you will read eye-witness accounts of the era, which provide the reader with vivid and detailed accounts of the mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit which brought times of spiritual refreshment in Ireland.

You will read reports of how the great movement resulted in extended prayer gatherings, spontaneous praise meetings, powerful and anointed preaching of God's word which was followed by deep conviction of sin and the conversion of whole families. The observers of this supernatural and sovereign outpouring of God by His Spirit relate how much the revival impacted on the moral and spiritual condition of that time, and how churches which previously had been depleted in numbers were suddenly brimming with worshippers and sinners seeking salvation. A fascinating account of a Revival by those who witnessed the events first hand.

"The revival during 1859 was a remarkable time of spiritual blessing among the people of Ireland, when many thousands came to know the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal Saviour. The impact was so noticeable that the newspapers began to write in detail , bringing up-to-date news concerning services and how the Lord was working. During the year, many column inches were taken up with news from all across the country. Newspaper editors frequently commented that they could bring only a selection of the news that they received concerning the revival...Surely as we read these accounts of the work of God, our hearts will be stirred up to pray and long for a similar move of the Spirit of God in our own lives and in the lives of all around us" (from the Introduction, by Samuel Adams).

"To read this journal of the 1859 Revival has been both thrilling to my heart and stirring to my soul" - Victor Maxwell
