Jesus is Amazing — Simon Ponsonby (Spoken Word)

"…And I began to reflect that evening whether, after 30 years of being a disciple, I was amazed by Jesus, or whether I had lost my first love and my relationship with Jesus was rather predictable and dutiful…

Did Jesus still amaze me or just employ me? That evening, as I drew near to Jesus, he drew near to me. I felt my weariness begin to melt away. The next day I began to write this in my favourite cafe in Oxford, I wiped away the tears as I meditated on Jesus and marvelled again at who he was and what he had done.

The sermon was very different to my usual writing or teaching, but I consciously didn’t want to clutter up my reflections with clever quotes, witty quips or rhetorical challenges. I just wanted to speak of Jesus and wanted others to see him and know that he is amazing…”

This was recorded on the 13th of March 2019 during the morning service at St Aldates Church.

Pretty much everything about him, he went through the worst times just for the common people, we owe him all the respect we should give 🙏
