Christmas Day 2025 // Morning // Luke 2:8-20 // The Real Christmas Gift
Rev. Craig Lynn speaks on Luke 2:8-20 at the Christmas Morning service 2025 in First Ards. Christmas is God’s gift to ordinary people, announced not as advice but as good news that a Saviour has been born for us. Through the shepherds’ story, the focus is on receiving what God freely gives, Jesus Christ, the Son given, who comes to rescue, not because we’ve earned him, but because we need him.

Christmas Eve 2025 // Evening // Luke 2:1-7 // No Room in the Inn?
Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 2:1-7 at the Christmas Eve midnight service 2025 in First Ards. Jesus is born into a crowded world where the expected place is already full and from the very beginning his life is marked by humility rather than status. The familiar line that there was “no room for them in the inn” reveals not hostility but ordinary fullness, showing how God comes quietly into the margins and how Christ makes room for us even when there was no room for him.

Sunday 21st December 2025 // Evening // Carols by Candlelight // O Come All You Unfaithful
Rev. Craig Lynn shares a short epilogue at our Carols by Candlelight on Sunday 21st December 2025 in First Ards. Who is Christmas really for? Drawing on the familiar carols and the opening words of John’s Gospel, it reminds us that Jesus didn’t come for the strong, sorted or self-sufficient, but for the weak, weary and unfaithful, stepping right into our darkness so we might become God’s children. It gently invites each of us to respond, not with performance or pretence, but by simply receiving him.

Sunday 21st December 2025 // Morning // Characters Around the Cradle
Rev. Craig Lynn shares a short concluding epilogue after having heard from some Character Around the Cradle at morning worship on Sunday 21st December 2025 in First Ards. As those who were there responded to Jesus’ birth in different ways, so we’re invited to respond, not just with tradition, but with trust. Whether it’s commitment like Joseph, fear like Herod, worship like the wise men or wonder like the shepherds, the question is, how will you respond to the Christ who came, who died, who rose and who still calls us today? Will it be yes, like M...

Sunday 14th December 2025 // Evening // Genesis 35 & 36 // The Return to Bethel
Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Genesis 35 and 36 at evening worship on Sunday 14th December 2025 in First Ards. As Jacob’s long story draws to a close, God speaks into the mess of chapter 34 and calls him back to Bethel, a return not just to a place, but to the promises of God. This chapter is full of grace: idols are buried, worship is renewed, old names are reaffirmed and, even in the midst of deep sorrow and lingering sin, God’s covenant purposes hold firm. The line of promise might not look impressive next to Esau’s kings, but it...

Sunday 7th December 2025 // Morning // Luke 7:36-50 // Love that Flows from Forgiveness
Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 7:36-50 at morning worship on Sunday 7th 2025 in First Ards. At a dinner in a Pharisee’s home, a woman with a sinful past breaks into the room and pours out tearful, costly love at Jesus’ feet, an act that exposes both her need and Simon’s blindness to his own. Jesus tells a simple story that reveals the truth: forgiven people love much and those who think they need little forgiveness love little. In the end, the woman receives assurance and peace and Simon is left to face the question that rests...

Sunday 30th November 2025 // Evening // Genesis 34 // The Folly of Revenge
Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Genesis 34 at evening worship on Sunday 30th November 2025 in First Ards. Genesis 34 shows the fallout of Jacob stopping short of obedience. Dinah is grievously wronged, her brothers answer sin with deceit and bloodshed, Jacob retreats into fear and the whole disaster exposes what happens when God’s people live in compromise instead of at Bethel. It’s a dark chapter, but it drives us to the God who steps back in at the start of chapter 35, the righteous Judge who will put every wrong right and the gentle Shepherd who gathers the wounded and...

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 7:18-35 at morning worship on Sunday 30th November 2025 in First Ards. John the Baptist, once so sure about Jesus, sits in prison confused and asks a question we all recognise “Are you really the One?” Jesus answers with evidence, broken lives healed, good news preached, and gently says, “Blessed is the one who isn’t tripped up by me.” Then he turns to the crowd, honours John, and exposes the heart that’s determined to resist no matter what tune God plays. Luke leaves us with a simple choice: either bring your honest doubt...

Sunday 23rd November 2025 // Evening // Genesis 33 // Grace Greater than Our Sin
Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Genesis 33 at evening worship on Sunday 23rd November 2025 in First Ards. Jacob limps into a new day after wrestling with God and Genesis 33 shows what grace looks like when it’s lived out in real relationships. The brother he feared meets him with unexpected mercy, Jacob responds with humility and yet the old instincts still surface, a reminder that God’s work in us is real but often uneven. Even so, the chapter ends with Jacob safe in the land because God keeps His promises, holding His people steady as they learn to walk...

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Like 7:11-17 at morning worship on Sunday 23rd November in First Ards. Jesus walks into a tiny nowhere town and straight into a funeral, a widow burying her only son, her last bit of security and hope. He sees her, feels deep compassion, stops the whole procession with a touch and, with a word, brings her son back to life. Jesus isn’t just moved by our tears, He has authority even over death itself and the only sane response is not to admire Him from a distance, but to trust Him as th...

Sunday 16th November 2025 // Evening // Genesis 32 // Strength Made Perfect in Weakness
Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Genesis 21 at evening worship on Sunday 16th November 2025 in First Ards. Jacob’s story is as messy as ever, running from Laban, dreading Esau and realising his biggest problem isn’t his brother at all, it’s himself. Before any reunion can happen, God meets him alone in the dark, wrestles him to the ground and blesses him with a limp. It’s a chapter that shows us how God sometimes breaks our strength to rebuild our trust and how real change often starts where our self-reliance finally gives way to grace.

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 7:1-10 at morning worship on Sunday 9th November 2025 in First Ards. After the Sermon on the Plain, Jesus walks straight into Capernaum and into the need of a Roman soldier whose servant is dying. The centurion knows power, but he also knows his limits and he humbly asks Jesus to heal with just a word. Others say he deserves it; he insists he doesn’t. Yet his trust in Jesus’ authority moves the Lord Himself to amazement. Here’s a glimpse of the kind of faith that makes Jesus smile: not proud achiev...

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Genesis 31 at evening worship on Sunday 26th October 2025 in First Ards. Jacob finally heads home, but not because the circumstances are easy, they’re actually falling apart around him. Laban’s family turns against him, idols get smuggled out under a saddle and a furious chase follows through the hills. Yet in every moment, God is quietly at work guiding Jacob forward, restraining harm, exposing false gods and defending a man who’s tried to live with integrity. This chapter reminds us that when God says “Go,” He also says, “I will be with you” an...

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 6:46-49 at morning worship on Sunday 26th October 2025 in First Ards. Jesus ends His Sermon on the Plain with a simple but searching question: why call Him “Lord” and then ignore His words? He says real disciples don’t just enjoy the sound of His teaching, they put it into practice. Like a wise builder who digs down to the rock, obedience gives our lives depth and stability when the storms come.

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Genesis 30:25–43 at evening worship on Sunday 19th October 2025 in First Ards. Jacob’s story reminds us that God’s providence doesn’t switch off in the workplace or the grind of daily life. While Jacob labours under Laban’s schemes, God quietly turns the odds in his favour, not through trickery or luck but through mercy and faithfulness. The striped sticks and spotted sheep aren’t magic, they’re a backdrop for a far greater truth, that the Lord keeps His promises. Even when the system’s rigged and the deck’s stacked, God’s hand is stea...

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 6:43-45 at morning worship on Sunday 19th October 2025 in First Ards. Jesus says that sooner or later, what’s inside us will always show on the outside. Fruit comes from nature, not from noise. A good tree can’t bear bad fruit and a bad tree can’t bear good fruit. Our words, our habits and our attitudes all trace back to the heart’s root system. The mouth’s just the loudspeaker of whatever’s been stored up inside. But the good news is that Jesus doesn’t just polish rotten fruit, He make...

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 6:37–42 at morning worship on Sunday 12th October 2025 in First Ards. Jesus shows us what mercy looks like when it really gets down into the heart. Instead of picking up the gavel of judgement, we’re called to take up the scoop of generosity, giving others the same grace we’ve received. The measure we use matters, because it reveals what’s shaping us. True sight begins with humility and real correction starts with confession. The good news is that Jesus has already carried our beams at the cross, so we can see clearly...

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Genesis 29:31-30:24 at evening worship on Sunday 5th October 2025 in First Ards. In a household marked by rivalry, jealousy and heartache, God’s grace quietly holds the centre. Leah, unloved and overlooked, discovers that the Lord sees her misery and hears her cries. Rachel, jealous and scheming, finds that the Lord remembers her and opens her womb. Across all the bitterness and bargaining, it’s God, not human striving, who moves His promises forward. He’s the God who notices the unseen, listens to the broken, remembers the forgotten and gives life where none c...

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 6:27-36 at morning worship on Sunday 5th October 2025 in First Ards. Jesus calls His followers to live differently: to love their enemies; to do good to those who hate them; to bless those who curse them; and to pray for those who mistreat them. This love isn’t sentimental but deliberate, a grace-shaped mercy that mirrors the Father’s heart. It’s the love Jesus Himself displayed at the cross: kindness to the undeserving; forgiveness to His enemies; and mercy to those who could never repay.

After the vision of Bethel, Jacob doesn’t find angels or ladders, only a well, some shepherds and a young woman arriving with sheep. Yet through these ordinary details, God leads him to Rachel and into the next stage of His covenant plan. Even amid love, labour, deception and disappointment, God is at work quietly guiding His people, exposing idols, disciplining sin and preparing the line of Christ. In Jesus, the true Bridegroom, we see the One who doesn’t deceive or e...

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 6:20-26 at morning worship on Sunday 28th September in First Ards. Jesus opens His kingdom manifesto with shocking verdicts. He pronounces blessing not on the rich, the comfortable, or the popular, but on the poor, the hungry, the weeping, and the hated, those who belong to Him. And He speaks words of lament over those who look secure now but are storing up emptiness for eternity. True blessing isn’t about your circumstances today but about belonging to Christ and living now in light of His promised future.

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Genesis 28 at evening worship on Sunday 21st September 2025 in First Ards. Jacob runs into exile with guilt on his conscience, a stone for a pillow, and nothing to his name. Yet it’s there, in a “certain place,” that God meets him, not because he deserves it, but because God comes down in grace. Jacob sees a stairway between heaven and earth, a vision fulfilled in Jesus Christ, the true Bethel, the living gate of heaven. And in this we see the gospel, not that we climb up to God, but that God comes...

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 6:17-19 at morning worship on Sunday 21st September 2025 in First Ards. Before Jesus speaks a single word of the Sermon on the Plain, Luke slows us down to look at Him. He comes down among ordinary people, His presence is both heard and felt and power flows from Him to heal and restore. Here is the Christ who is accessible, compassionate and sufficient. The call of this passage is clear. Will you entrust your life into His hands?

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 6:12-16 at morning worship on Sunday 14th September 2025 in First Ards. Before choosing the twelve apostles, Jesus prayed through the night. Out of many disciples, He called ordinary people - fishermen, a tax collector, a zealot, doubters and brothers - to be His witnesses. Their mission rested not on their brilliance but on His blood. And still today, Jesus calls, chooses and sends His people to bear lasting fruit in His name.

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 6:6-11 at morning worship on Sunday 7th September 2025 in First Ards. On the Sabbath, Jesus meets a man with a withered hand and restores him with a word. As we return to Luke's gospel after a break over the summer months, we see in this passage that the Lord’s Day isn't about box-ticking rules but about mercy, restoration and life. The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath and when He speaks, withered things live again.

In this final message of our Faith FAQs series, James reminds us that prayer is God’s chosen means of working in the world, shaping our hearts and deepening our relationship with Him. Prayer matters, not because our words are powerful, but because the God who hears is sovereign, wise and good.

In a world where trouble feels endless, Obadiah lifts our eyes to God’s promise of restoration, reversal and reign.

In a spiritually blind world, our task isn’t to edit God’s message or control the results, but to faithfully proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord, trusting Him to open eyes. Looking at Paul in Athens, we learn to see our community as God sees it, start where people are, speak their language and move from common ground to gospel ground.

Obadiah lifts our eyes from one nation to all nations, declaring, “The day of the Lord is near.” This is not a distant theological concept, but a certain day of justice when every deed will be brought to account.

As we reflect on their silence, indifference and eventual cruelty, we’re reminded that gospel people aren’t called to stand at a distance but to step in. Because Christ didn’t stand aloof from us.

As Jesus walks through a grainfield on the Sabbath, a quiet moment becomes a striking revelation of who He is.

When questioned about fasting, Jesus responds with three vivid images: a wedding; a patch; and a wineskin. Each of them reveals that He hasn’t come to improve religion but to replace it. In this sermon from Luke 5, we see that Jesus brings joy, new life and a fresh start, not something to sample, but Someone to follow.

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 5:17-26 at morning worship on Sunday 25th May 2025 in First Ards. When a paralysed man is lowered through a roof to Jesus, the crowd expects a miracle of healing, but Jesus sees a deeper need. In this sermon from Luke 5, we explore how Jesus’ authority goes far beyond restoring broken bodies; He forgives sin. This isn’t just a story about a man who walked again, but about a Saviour who knows the heart, meets us in our greatest need and offers us something far greater than we often expect. How will we r...

Sunday 18th May 2025 // Evening // Psalm 74 // A Prayer for God’s Glory in Dark Days
Rev. Michael Bostock preaches Psalm 74 at evening worship on Sunday 18th May in First Ards. Psalm 74 is a contemplative prayer in the face of spiritual ruin. With the temple destroyed and God’s name dishonoured, Asaph pleads with the Lord not for comfort, but for God’s glory to be restored. This sermon reflects on the relevance of that prayer for today’s church, in a time of confusion, compromise and cultural darkness. How should God’s people respond? With serious, heartfelt prayer rooted in God’s past faithfulness, present promises and enduring power.

Sunday 18th May 2025 // Morning // Luke 5:12-16 // The Healing of the Leper
Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 5:12-16 at morning worship on Sunday 18th May 2025 in First Ards. A man covered in leprosy comes to Jesus with a desperate request, “If you are willing, you can make me clean.” What unfolds is a powerful moment of grace. Jesus touches the untouchable and speaks cleansing with divine authority. This passage reveals not just the compassion of Christ, but His willingness to restore the broken and welcome the outcast. It also shows us His quiet strength, as He withdraws to pray in the midst of growing fame. What kind of King is t...

Sunday 11th May 2025 // Evening // 2 Samuel 9 // David and Mephibosheth
Rev. Craig Lynn preaches 2 Samuel 9 at evening worship on Sunday 11th May 2025 in First Ards. In this account from 2 Samuel 9, we see King David reach out in kindness to a forgotten, broken man named Mephibosheth. It’s a picture of grace: covenantal, undeserved and deeply personal. David’s mercy mirrors the greater mercy of God, who seeks out sinners, not for what they offer, but for the sake of His Son. Just as Mephibosheth is lifted from Lo-Debar and seated at the king’s table “like one of the king’s sons,” so too are we, through Christ, welc...

What happens when people hear the Word of God in their own language? Lives are changed. Hearts are opened. Nations are reached. In this message, we reflect on Isaiah 55:10–11 and hear powerful stories from the work of Bible translation with Wycliffe, including how one word in one language unlocked th...

Sunday 4th May 2025 // Morning // Luke 5:1-11 // The Catch of Fish
Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 5:1-11 at morning worship on Sunday 4th May 2025 in First Ards. Peter thought he knew what he was doing, until Jesus stepped into his boat. This isn’t just a story about fish. It’s about a call that confronts, convicts and transforms. Jesus interrupts Peter’s ordinary day with a command that makes no sense, “let down the nets” and Peter obeys. The result? A miraculous catch, but more than that, a man undone by holiness. Peter falls at Jesus’ knees, not in pride but repentance. And Jesus lifts him. “Don’t be afraid. Fro...

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches 1 Peter 1:3-9 at Easter morning worship on 20th April 2025 in First Ards. Peter doesn’t begin with problems, he begins with praise. Jesus is alive and that changes everything. His resurrection gives us new birth into a living hope, an inheritance that can’t perish, spoil, or fade. That hope holds in suffering. Even when faith feels fragile, God keeps us. Our future is secure, not because we’re strong, but because Christ is risen. So take heart: we don’t follow a memory, we follow a living Saviour. And because He lives, we live

Rev. David Moore preaches Mark 15:25-39 at our fourth and final joint Holy Week service on Good Friday 18th April 2025 in First Ards. On that Friday, Jesus was crucified. Mocked, rejected and alone, He hung on a cross between criminals. But this was no ordinary death, this was the moment sin was judged, wrath was spent and salvation was won. As darkness fell, Jesus bore the weight of the world’s sin and cried out in abandonment. And when He died, the temple curtain tore, the way to God thrown open. A Roman centurion looked up and sa...

Rev. David Moore preaches Mark 14:17-26 and 32-36 at our third joint Holy Week service on Thursday 17th April 2025 in First Ards. On the night before the cross, Jesus gives His disciples a powerful promise and prays a profound prayer. The promise? His body and blood, broken and poured out, are the guarantee of God’s covenant love, the gift of forgiveness and life. The prayer? “Not my will, but yours be done.” At the darkest hour, Jesus walks the hardest road for us. Trust the promise. Follow the prayer.

Rev. David Moore preaches Mark 12:1-12 and 14:1-11 at our second joint Holy Week service on Wednesday 16th April in First Ards. As Holy Week continues, Jesus is rejected by the religious leaders and betrayed by Judas; but in the middle of it all, He’s honoured by a woman who pours out costly perfume in love. While others plot, she worships. It’s a challenge to us. Are we rejecting, betraying or truly honouring Jesus with our best?

Rev. David Moore preaches Mark 11:12-19 at our first joint Holy Week service on Tuesday 15th April in First Ards. Jesus curses a fruitless fig tree and overturns tables in the temple. Both are signs of judgment, not on outsiders, but on empty religion. It’s a call to repent, to return to our first love and to let Jesus bring the change we need.

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches 2 Samuel 8:1-18 at evening worship on Sunday 13th March 2025 in First Ards. Following God’s covenant promises to David in chapter 7, 2 Samuel 8 shows those promises beginning to unfold. David’s reign expands through a series of military victories, not for personal glory, but as a testimony to God’s faithfulness. We see a king who rules with justice and righteousness, honours the Lord with what he gains and points us forward to a greater King still to come. This chapter isn’t just a record of battles; it’s a glimpse of God’s kingdom br...

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Matthew 21:1-11 and Philippians 2:5-11 at Palm Sunday morning worship on Sunday 13th April 2025 in First Ards. On Palm Sunday, Jesus entered Jerusalem to cheers and shouts of “Hosanna!”, but not as the people expected. He came not on a war horse, but on a donkey. Not to claim power, but to lay it down. From Matthew’s account of that first Palm Sunday and Paul’s reflection in Philippians, we see the heart of Christ: gentle, humble, obedient, even to death on a cross. He is the King we need and one day ever...

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 4:42-44 at morning worship on Sunday 6th April 2025 in First Ards. After a powerful day of ministry in Capernaum, Jesus withdraws to pray. When the crowds try to keep Him, He refuses. Jesus hasn’t come to settle, but to proclaim the good news of the kingdom of God. This passage reveals the heart of Christ’s mission: not popularity, but purpose. His eyes are set on preaching, His steps are guided by the Father and His kingdom is always moving forward.

His words reveal a heart shaped by humility, worship and faith. Rooted in God’s grace and promises, David’s prayer becomes a model for how we respond to the mercy and faithfulness of God, not with striving, but with trust.

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 4:38–41 at morning worship on Sunday 30th March 2025 in First Ards. Jesus leaves the synagogue and enters Simon’s home, where He heals Peter’s mother-in-law with a word. As evening falls, crowds gather, and Jesus lays hands on each one, healing the sick and casting out demons. This passage shows us the compassion and authority of Christ, not only in public but in private, not just in teaching but in personal, restoring power.

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 4:31-37 at morning worship on Sunday 23rd March 2025 in First Ards. In Capernaum, Jesus teaches with striking authority, unlike anything the people had heard before. His words don’t just inform, they command. And when a demon confronts Him, Jesus silences and casts it out with a word, showing power not just over minds, but over the unseen spiritual realm. This passage challenges us to move beyond admiration of Jesus and respond in faith and submission to His authority.

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches Luke 4:14-30 at morning worship on Sunday 16th March 2025 in First Ards. When Jesus returns to His hometown, He reads from Isaiah and declares, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.” At first, the people marvel, but when He challenges their expectations, declaring that God’s grace extends beyond them, their admiration turns to rage. This passage warns us that knowing about Jesus isn’t the same as knowing Him. The people of Nazareth grew up with Jesus but rejected Him as Lord. Many today admire Him but never surrender to Him.

Where Adam fell in Eden, Jesus stood firm. Where Israel failed in the wilderness, Jesus remained faithful. Satan tempted Him with shortcuts to satisfaction, power and security, but Jesus refused, choosing obedience to the Father over compromise. He fought not with miracles, but with Scripture, showing us that God’s Word is our greatest weapon against the enemy’s lies. And because Jesus won this battle, He wins every battle. His vi...

Luke traces His genealogy all the way back to Adam, showing that Jesus isn’t just Israel’s Messiah, He’s the Saviour of the whole world. While Adam’s failure brought sin and death, Jesus, the Second Adam, came to undo what was broken and bring life to all who belong to Him. His victory over temptation, sin and death means that in Him, we receive a new identity, a new family, an...

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches 1 Corinthians 10:16-17 & 11:23-29 at evening worship on Sunday 23rd February 2025 in First Ards. The Lord’s Supper is far more than a memorial. It’s a means of grace, a sign and seal of God’s covenant, a family meal and a foretaste of the feast to come. When we come to the Table, we don’t just remember Christ’s sacrifice, we actively participate in the grace He offers. This meal unites us as His people, strengthens our faith and assures us of His promises. And as we take the bread and the cup, w...

As the Ark of the Covenant enters Jerusalem, David rejoices with unrestrained joy, while Michal watches from the window in contempt. One heart is captivated by God’s presence, the other is consumed by pride. This passage challenges us: are we worshippers or spectators? Do we seek God’s glory or human approval? True worship might look foolish to the world, but it brings life and joy. The question is, will we...

At His baptism, Jesus steps into the water, not because He needs repentance, but to identify with sinners and fulfil all righteousness. In this powerful moment, the heavens open, the Spirit descends and the Father declares His love and delight. This isn’t just about Jesus, it’s about us. He steps into our place so we can step into His grace. He opens the way to God so we can know Him personally. And the same Spirit that anointed Jesus is a...

Rev. Craig Lynn preaches 1 Samuel 6:1-15 at evening worship on Sunday 9th February 2025 in First Ards. The presence of God can either bring judgment or joy, fear or freedom. The difference is in how we approach Him. In this passage, we see David’s first attempt to bring the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem end in disaster, while his second attempt overflows with worship. The lesson? God’s presence is not to be handled casually but approached with obedience, reverence and awe. And ultimately, the only way to come before a holy God is through Jesus Chri...

John the Baptist calls out superficial faith, warning that God isn’t fooled by religious appearances. True repentance produces visible fruit, transforms our actions and leads us to full surrender to Jesus. John reminds us that Jesus is not only the Saviour but also the Judge.
