Talks at CBC
Each week we read a section from the Bible and look to see what God wants to say to us today through this ancient text. You will find our most recents talk below. We recommend visiting our YouTube channel where you will find all of our video content – and while you are there why not subscribe.
If you prefer to listen rather than watch, you will find our talks wherever you normally access your podcasts.
True worship
True worship
When we use the word ‘worship’ we often think about things we do in church – particularly singing. But it is possible to just go through the motions. We might look the part but our outward actions do not reflect our hearts. What does God have to say about that kind of ‘worship’?
Patience and grace
We might think that the Old Testament is full of an angry God who is waiting to punish people who step out of line. But if you actually read it you see that the opposite is true. God is patient – desperately wanting the people to turn back to him and choose life. Today we’ll see how in the warnings of Amos there is still this invitation – seek me and live.
Jonah's anger
Jonah is so angry that he wants to die. Why? Because God was gracious and compassionate and forgave those whom Jonah thought should be punished. Are we open to the surprising and compassionate ways God might want to work in the lives of those around us?
Harvest 2025
As well as thanking God for the harvest we need to be aware of how we can help those who don’t have enough. Today we’ll see how God made provision for this in his law and what it means for us now.
