Hi and welcome. Ashfield Baptist Church is a "caring community church sharing God's love". We are very diverse in our nationalities, backgrounds and ages, but united in our desire to grow spiritually and to reach out and help others. Our vision is "to be a body of Christ-like people living out the great commandment and the great commission in the Holy Spirit's power". This blog is mainly for people connected with Ashfield Baptist Church. It has been set up as an "info & chat space" as we start the "THRU IN 2" challenge. This is our program for reading the Bible right through during 2007 & 2008. Many are using the Every Day With Jesus Bible which also has daily devotions from Selwyn Hughes. As we read through the Bible together over these two years, we can use this blog to share insights, stories, reflections, questions etc. The goal is to grow spiritually together. So leave your comments. Together we can help each other grow. Blessings. Ps John.

After the darkness of night comes the light of dawn. This is not only true in the physiacl world but also in the spiritual realm. Ps 30:5 expresses it beautifully - "Weeping may spend the night, but there is joy in the morning." Selwyn Hughes in his devotion applies this to the disciples' experience of Jesus' crucifixion and then his resurrection. In a different way, I'm sure it was true for the mother after Jesus expelled the demon from her daughter (Mk 7:30). Also for the deaf man with the speech impediment (7:35). But it also applies to many of the situations we face. Our Christian hope points us to the joy that will come in the morning.
