Let us focus on Psalm 100, a Psalm for giving thanks, which starts off with telling us to “Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth! Serve the Lord with gladness! Come into his presence with singing!” (v1-2) Do you feel like making a joyful noise now when you come to Bronte? Do […]
We have been experiencing some abnormal and sweltering heat and extreme temperatures. At times it seems unbearable, unless we are indoors, find shade, or get something cold to quench our thirst. Summer is making itself known! Such extreme weather can be compared to spiritual temperatures – whether we are hot or cold for God… whether […]
