Strathaven Kirk

My photograph of Strathaven Trinity Church in South Lanarkshire manages to omit its most remarkable feature- its spire, which its own website, naturally, depicts with pleasure. Whether I photographed it and it never saved, or the day, being wet, persuaded me to take my leave before taking my best pictures, I do not know.

Any topic, theme, series or emphasis which a preacher or pastor focusses upon other than the cross and resurrection of the Lord Jesus has missed the best bit. All else is potentially peripheral, for all the promises and workings of God hang upon those three days and nights sometime around 33AD. If your faith has you mentioning Jesus but barely His atoning death and conquering coming-back-to-life, then look up and believe.

For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 1 Corinthians 2:2

And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. 1 Corinthians 15:14
