The Philippians 1:9-11 Journey The wait is almost over. After 6½ years meeting in the school and 5½ since the demolition of the old Cecil Hall, the construction of the new building in Cecil Road is due to commence over the summer. We give thanks and praise to God for His provision of all our needs and for the way He has guided and directed us through the many twists and turns that have led to this point. |

A Question of Sport? For many, whether they like it or not, this month will be dominated by sport. The newspapers and television coverage will be full of the World Cup and the Wimbledon Championships. June will also see the F1 European Grand Prix, US open golf championship, the Henley regatta and cricket between England and Australia. Some people will be rubbing their hands together with glee over the prospect of so much sport. Others will be tearing their hair out or showing no interest at all. |

Wisdom With a general election this month most of us are probably trying to work out what is the wise use of our vote. We’ve listened to many voices throughout the election campaign telling us that the wise thing is to vote for them. Life will be best if we listen to what they say. But what does it mean to be wise? How do we really decide who is right? Each voice is telling us that they are right. So the question is how do we become wise and decide what is right living? |

Church Life is More Than Sunday I am very grateful to God and to the congregation of EEFC for allowing me four months of sabbatical. It was a time for rest and refreshment, and I want to record my thanks to David, Nathan, Peter and the other elders who served the fellowship so faithfully while I was away. |

Needs, Wishes and Wants As you chat to your friends and work colleagues, they may often speak of what they “need”? Even if they don’t use the word itself, they may well use phrases like, “I must have a sit down and a cup of coffee”; “I could really do with an early night”. Other people, in more desperate situations may simply yearn quietly for something – the person in hospital who wishes to be home, or the person having a hard time who wants to have some relief. |

Treasure Have you ever dreamed about what you’d do if you found £1million? I suspect most of us have at some time or another. It’s probably what drives millions of people to play the lottery each week. The idea of finding hidden treasure is something that appeals to most of us, either in the make-believe or in reality through games shows and the lottery. |

Setting Priorities for 2010 The beginning of a New Year is a good time to evaluate our priorities. It’s an appropriate time to consider where our focus and efforts should be for the year ahead. January is a time when people will often set goals for what they’d like to achieve for the coming 12 months. But for Christians, our priorities . . . |

Shepherd's Delight One television shopping channel began selling its Christmas items in July this year. The supermarket where we do our weekly shop put its first festive items on the shelves before the end of August. As you read this, maybe you’re already feeling overwhelmed by the thought of the Christmas festivities. |

Another Day, Another Delay On the 9th of September I made a rare and adventurous trip to the swimming pool early in the morning. As I was getting ready to go home there was a conversation on the radio about those who were predicting that the world would end on the 09/09/09 at 09:09:09am. They were talking about what they would fill those last few hours with.. |
