This summer at Ardgowan Square
All Together Summer School’s (nearly) out for summer. But at Ardgowan Square, we’ll be starting a week early. During the summer, we know that many people will be travelling or looking for an opportunity to take a break. Our Sunday School teachers faithfully serve week after week. And we believe that our gathering is a […]
The Spirit and the Church
There are many things attributed to the Holy Spirit, some true things and some false things. People will talk about being moved by the Holy Spirit or slain in the Spirit or worshipping in the Spirit. The trouble with these things is that they are either very subjective or entirely unbiblical. But the Apostle’s Creed […]
The Risen King
So far in our little series on the Apostle’s Creed, we’ve confessed that we believe in God the Father, Almighty who made heaven and earth. We’ve confessed that Jesus stepped into history, that he is God Incarnate, fully divine and fully human, and that he truly died. But our great confession does not end with a Christ who […]
Christ stepped into history
The middle section of the Apostle’s Creed is dedicated to Jesus Christ, the Son of God. In a previous post, we considered the uniqueness of Jesus. That there is no one like him. He isn’t one among many, he doesn’t exist on a spectrum of human/divine beings. He is the only One. And this time, we continue […]
New ways to listen
It’s now easier than ever to catch up on our teaching ministry if you’ve missed a week or two at church. More recordings will be added to the podcast feeds as time goes on. Catch up with sermons via Spotify and Apple Podcasts!
I Believe
On Sunday, we recited the Apostle’s Creed together. Inspired by this, it seems good for us to take a few weeks to be reminded of what we believe so that we know how to discern what is false when we come across it. To be a Christian is to believe that God is real, mighty, […]
That you may live long in the land
One of the things that we are sort of used to thinking about is God as Holy Trinity. We rightly, boldly, and humbly confess that God is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The doctrine of the Trinity is what distinguishes Christians from heretical churches like the Latter Day Saints, JWs, and Islam, to name a […]
Discipleship Explored
Before he ascended, Jesus offered these words to the apostles: This is often called the Great Commission and what we see throughout the New Testament is that the apostles work really hard to see that this is fulfilled. They are so intent on doing as the Lord Jesus instructed them that they are willing to […]
Coming up at Ardgowan Square
We are back from a couple of weeks visiting family and while there, we had the opportunity to experience every kind of weather. There was sunshine, rain, snow (three times!), thunder and lightning, and wind that made all of the leafless trees creak like old houses. As I continue to recover from jet lag, let […]
