"Castles of Hope: Prophecy, Patience and Proclamation" with Jane Portlock

This is the talk from our 10:45 service on 11 May 2025. The reading was 1 Peter 1:10-12. In this insightful talk, Jane Portlock explores the themes of prophecy, patience and proclamation. She reflects on how the prophets searched intently for the time and circumstances of the Messiah's coming, demonstrating patience in waiting for God's timing. Jane challenges us to embrace our responsibility to proclaim the message of hope, just as the angels longed to look into these things. She encourages us to step into leadership roles and be part of the driving force behind the church's ministry, supported by the clergy team.
