South West Baptist Church Sermons

We have been justified and redeemed because of God's righteousness and faithfulness. What does this mean?

Our Romans series continues with Steve Withington taking a look at the state of our hearts and how it connects to God's judgement and mercy.

Alan Jamieson continues our series on Romans. (WARNING: this message contains content suitable for a mature audience only.)

Murray Robertson opens our series on Romans with a look at the content of the gospel of God, and Paul's impassioned commitment to spreading the message of Jesus.

Jo Robertson looks at what Paul means when he says he is a slave of Jesus Christ and what that would have meant to the recipients of his letter, living at the heart of the Roman empire.

Dr Bob Robinson looks at the meeting at the well between Jesus and the Samaritan woman, and investigates how the approach Jesus took in this encounter can inform our encounters with those of other faiths, particularly Muslims.

Claire Russell sums up our entire "Prayer Changes Us" series by asking us what we have learnt, how we have encountered God and what we will do in prayer going forward.

David Graham looks back over the "Prayer Changes Us" series and looks at how prayer changes us in secret, is taught, and is an intimate encounter with God.

Alan Jamieson looks at the third temptation of Jesus, the temptation to lead rather than be led, and examines how Jesus' final words to Peter show us how to do avoid this temptation and why it is so important to do so.

The temptation to be spectacular, to be popular, to be the hero, is one we are always faced with. Jesus faced it too, but how he responded shows us how we, together, are to avoid the lure of this temptation.

Alan Jamieson looks at the importance of using our whole body in worship and prayer, the role our body plays in how we present ourselves to God, and addresses our reluctance to do so.

When Jesus was tempted in the wilderness, he was offered the chance to be relevant, to be current, important, significant. He refused, as his time in the wilderness had taught him something important about himself: that he was beloved by God - something we need to accept about ourselves too.

Alan Jamieson discusses the importance of solitude and silence as a way to reconnect with our soul and with God, something that is especially important in a society that has so many things to distract us and keep us busy and burn us out.

Such is the love that God lavishes on us that there is always more of God waiting for us if we are open to seeking him out and letting him bless us with more of him.

Alan Jamieson investigates the importance of the word of God for our lives, our growth in God and our prayer lives.

“Prayer does not change us. Prayer puts us in a great posture towards the God who changes us.” Alan Jamieson shares how we can put ourselves in this posture before God.

Alan Jamieson introduces us to the idea of "praying scripture", and takes us through an example of it in order to show us how it can be a great tool in our prayer arsenal.

Jo Robertson discusses how our intercessory prayers for the world must hold in tension the pain and suffering of others as well as the hope offered by God.

Alan Jamieson reveals why it is so important that when we pray we offer all of our selves - everything we are, inside and out, with no holding back.

Sharon Garlough Brown, author of the "Semsible Shoes" series of books, shares with us.
