Guest preacher Randy Chase takes us through the story of the woman who was healed by touching the hem of Jesus’ robe in the midst of a crowd, and reminds us that we can also come to Jesus in faith when we are exhausted by life.

January, like some seasons in our lives, can seem dreary and endless. The prophet Jeremiah and the writer of Psalm 147 both spoke hope into these times.
The book of Acts tells the riveting story of the Apostle Paul getting shipwrecked in the Mediterranean Sea. Paul’s conduct during the course of the adventure can be a model for us when we find ourselves in difficult situations.
In his Sermon on the Mount, Jesus begins with “Therefore, I tell you, don’t worry about what you will eat or drink or wear.” If you look at what he is referring back to, he is talking about making our relationship with God and with our neighbours our priority.
