Evening Sermon - 31st May 2026 - Naboth's Vineyard and the Justice of God

This evening's sermon is delivered by Rev. George Speers.

Preaching from 1 Kings 21, the Reverend George Speers examines the story of Naboth's vineyard, Ahab's covetousness, and Jezebel's murderous plot. Rev Speers shows how what looks like a trivial land dispute is actually a profound theological issue about covenant faithfulness, and traces God's certain justice even when it is delayed. The sermon closes by contrasting Ahab's counterfeit, self-interested remorse with the godly sorrow that leads to true repentance and salvation.
