By Rev Charlie Lacey | Number 22: 21-35Numbers 22: 21-35 (NIV)The book of Numbers does not begin with the words, “Once Upon a Time.”  In fact, the genre of Numbers is historical narrative and law.  So, what is a talking donkey doing in this book? Today, we explored this question as part of our 'Perplexing Passages' mini-series.

Jill Rowe continues our series 'Why did Jesus say that?' looking at Jesus' statement "I did not come to bring peace but a sword." It seems like a difficult message on Remembrance Sunday!

In this week's sermon, I explore how Jesus' Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25:14–30, NLT) calls us to steward what Christ has entrusted - our freedom, gifts, time, and resources - for his Kingdom. On Remembrance Sunday, we ask: what have we done with what was saved, and how do we stand firm against evil as Paul teaches (Ephesians 6:12) through holy, practical discipleship?

Carol Marples led the service. The reflection was led by Colin Hodgetts who was also officiating.

Claire reads from John 15:5-17 and Pastor Dan Foster speaks of there being no greater love at Pembury Baptist Church on Remembrance Sunday, 9th November 2025.

Remembrance Sunday. A time to reflect, remember and give thanks for those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. However, sadly, in the world today, there are more wars than ever. Some quick research on the internet suggests that there are currently 130 armed conflicts worldwide. Double that of 15 years ago! The world is in chaos and crisis, and we may feel helpless. The story of Abigail in 1 Samuel 25 is an example of God's call to be a peacemaker in the middle of conflict. We may not be able to stop national wars, but we can still be people of peace in our local area and sphere of influence. Perhaps the best way to remember the fallen is to rise up and build peace in the present around those we love and live amongst. Abigail brings peace between two men, and her strategy is simple and helpful to our lives today.

It is Remembrance Sunday, and one of the First World War stories we often refer back to at this time of year is the Christmas truce between British and German soldiers. A story has now emerged of a World War Two truce during one of the bloodiest episodes of the conflict between the United States and Japan. Edward Stourton speaks to Professor Nick Megoran from Newcastle University who researched what happened.Metropolitan Hilarion was once one of the most powerful figures in the Russian Orthodox Church — effectively its foreign minister, as well as a theologian and composer. But in 2022 he was removed from office and sent to serve as the head of the Orthodox church in Hungary - there was widespread speculation he was being punished because he wouldn't endorse the invasion of Ukraine. Then last year he lost that job too, following allegations of spying, sexual misconduct, and financial abuse. He's now talked about all this in an exclusive interview with our correspondent in Budapest, Nick Thorpe. Despite a recent announcement by the RSF agreeing to a three-month humanitarian truce proposed by the Quad Mechanism (US, UAE, Egypt, Saudi Arabia), fighting continues, with explosions and drone attacks reported near Khartoum and Atbara. Sudan's military-led government said it would be wary of agreeing to a truce as the RSF group did not "respect" ceasefires. The Sunday programme hears the latest from BBC Correspondent Richard Kagoe, as well as the Archbishop of Sudan, Ezekiel Kondo, who has been in the UK this weekend.Presenter: Edward Stourton Producers: Bara'atu Ibrahim & Jay Behrouzi Editor: Dan Tierney

John 15:13 "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." Introduction: The Measure of True Love The words before us were spoken by the Lord Jesus Christ on the eve of His crucifixion. In the Upper Room, amidst the solemnity of betrayal and the shadow of the cross, our Lord taught His disciples about love, obedience, and sacrifice. The thirteenth verse of John fifteen stands as the pinnacle of that teaching—"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his

Title: Remembrance Sunday Speaker: Mike Tindall Passage: Corinthians 11:23-26 Recording Date: 09.11.2025 AM

Continuing from last week, in how do we respond to a holy God. When we became born again we enlisted into something bigger than ourselves. We gave up our preferences, our rights and handed them over to something greater. In doing this we see that God is leading us somewhere.... into the promises he has for us. If he is leading us into the promises he has for us, maybe we should stop shouting at every demon and start taking responsibility for changing the way we think.

St. John the Evangelist Church - Remembrance Sunday

This is the talk from our 10:45 service on 10 November 2024. The reading was Micah 4:1-5. In this thoughtful Remembrance Sunday reflection, Richard explores what remembrance truly means for Christians - not just honouring the past, but actively working for peace in the present and future. Drawing on Micah's powerful prophecy of swords being beaten into ploughshares, the talk examines the tension between commemorating those who died in war whilst rejecting war itself. Richard challenges us to see remembrance as more than sentiment, calling us to be peacemakers who work for God's justice and righteousness in our families, workplaces and communities. A timely reminder that true peace requires more than simply stopping conflict.

Join The Revd Canon Dr Alison Joyce, Rector of St Bride's, and St Bride's Choir for this week's reflection in words and music. This week we mark Remembrance Sunday when we as we gather, along with others across the nations, to pay tribute to those who lost their lives fighting for peace. In church, St Bride's Choir & Orchestra will perform Duruflé's Requiem as a mass for the fallen and this reflection opens with the first movement of that piece. Our reading is the famous passage from St John's Gospel proclaiming the commandment to "love one another as I have loved you" and its particularly poignant assertion at this time that "Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." Alison then reflects on these themes of love, sacrifice and remembrance — from Christ's command to love one another to wartime memory and hope. We close with the patriotic hymn "I vow to thee my country" published in 1921 after the Great War finally ended. The tune, by Holst, is an adaptation from his Planets Suite and sets a two stanza poem by Cecil Spring Rice, who served as British Ambassador to the United States during the war.

Have we forgotten what the Lord has done for us? Today on Remembrance Sunday we trace back the phrase "lest we forget" and remember the Lord's goodness and faithfulness to us and the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus for His people. We discover the consequences of failing to remember and how the Bible faithfully reminds us. It is our responsibility not only to remember the sacrifices of the last generation but also to look forward to the next generation and ensure they don't forget the Lord.

Last weekend, Arsenal player and Ireland captain Katie McCabe was in hot water in the UK for not wearing a poppy ahead of Remembrance Sunday. But by defending the right of Irish people not to wear a poppy, have we forgotten the people who choose to wear it proudly? We asked Frank Feighan Fine Gael TD and Vice-Chair of the British Irish Parliamentary Assembly.

Remembrance Sunday is this weekend would you wear a poppy? Shane and Ciara gave their view.

After Hurricane Melissa's devastating impact on Jamaica, a Cayman-based insurance fund is stepping up -- making its largest payout ever to help with the island's recovery. The Cayman Islands Civil Service launches a new wave of support for Jamaica -- reactivating its CIG Cares programme to raise funds and assist affected families. And Cayman's air operators join the relief effort, sending helicopters to assist where roads no longer exist. Later in the program, property prices remain flat, but steady -- the Lands and Survey Department releases the latest residential price index. Plus, plans move ahead for this year's Remembrance Sunday services and the 2025 National Recognition Awards.

On Remembrance Sunday, Karl Ihfe guides the Broadway congregation through a meaningful reflection on the Christian understanding of death and resurrection. Drawing from 1 Thessalonians 4 and John 11, Karl emphasizes that our hope isn't merely in a future event but in a person—Jesus Christ, who declared "I am the resurrection and the life" (John 11:25). This transforms our understanding from resurrection as a distant future event to a present reality in the person of Jesus. Karl reminds us that Paul doesn't tell believers not to grieve, but rather that we "may not grieve as others do who have no hope" (1 Thessalonians 4:13). Christians grieve deeply because we love deeply, but our grief is infused with hope because death doesn't have the final word. The sermon culminates in a moving ritual where the names of departed saints are spoken, a bell is rung, and candles are lit—affirming that though we miss our loved ones, they are with Jesus, and one day "every name we're about to speak is going to rise again." https://bwaychurch.org
