Morning Sermon - 10th August 2025 - Worship, Self, and the Incomparable Christ

This morning's sermon is delivered by Pastor Roy Hamilton

Pastor Roy Hamilton challenges the congregation to ask why they really come to church — is it to have felt needs met, or to worship the unique, incomparable Lord Jesus Christ? Drawing on Genesis, Hebrews, Isaiah and the experiences of figures like Martin Luther and Jonathan Edwards, he warns against the modern 'idol of self' creeping into Christian worship and calls for a renewed sense of the holiness and majesty of Christ in the gathered church.
