Reflect on bite-sized Bible readings that provide thought and deepen understanding.

This edition of Words of Life titled 'Covenants and Restoration' might also go under the heading 'Faith and Obedience'. God called Abraham to leave his home and by faith move to a promised land. He enters into a covenant with God which calls for him to trust.

God entered into covenant with Israel, promising they would be his treasured possession if they fully obey him. Then fast-forward to a time when the covenant had been broken and restoration was needed. God intervenes to make that happen.

Jesus speaks about a new covenant between God and his people. The Letter to the Hebrews explores and explains the old and new covenants. We also join Jesus telling parables and working miracles.

Guest writer Matthew Stone reflects how the first Christmas came 'Out of nowehere'. On Sundays we enjoy a good sing, concluding with 'The Twelve Days of Christmas'.
