Morning Sermon - 24th May 2026 - Holding Fast to the Basics of the Gospel in Colossians

This morning's sermon is delivered by Mr.Stephen Buchanan.

Preaching through the opening chapter of Colossians, Mr.Stephen Buchanan shows how Paul encourages a young church to hold on to the simple, unadorned truths of the gospel rather than chase after novelty. Along the way he traces the fruit of the gospel in changed lives, the shape of gospel-centred prayer, the supremacy of Christ as Creator and Reconciler, and the call to remain grounded in gospel hope. Mr.Stephen Buchanan also shares news of his forthcoming ministry apprenticeship and theological studies, asking for the congregation's prayer and support.
