Join us this Sunday at 11 AM at Cardonald Parish Church, as Rev. Joe Kavanagh leads our service.

Our reading from Matthew 16:21–28 brings us to Jesus' challenging call to discipleship.

Jesus tells His followers that He must suffer and die, and then calls them to deny themselves, take up their cross, and follow Him.

What does it really mean to follow Jesus? And are we prepared to follow Him even when the road is difficult?

Come and join us as we reflect on the cost—and the calling—of following Christ.

Join us this Sunday at 11 AM at Cardonald Parish Church, as Santosh VN (Worship Leader, Church of Scotland) leads our service.

Our readings from 2 Corinthians 10:3–5 and Philippians 4:6–9 challenge us to think seriously about what occupies our minds.

Thoughts can quickly become patterns. Worry can lead to more worry. Negative assumptions can begin to feel like truth. Yet Scripture tells us that our minds are not simply places where thoughts happen to us. We are called to take thoughts captive, bring them under Christ, and deliberately dwell on what is true, right, pure and worthy of praise.

In the sermon, “What Are You Thinking?”, we will explore what the Bible teaches about our thought life, the patterns we repeatedly return to, and how meditating on God’s Word can help renew the way we think.

The goal is not simply to think positively, but to learn to think truthfully in the light of God’s Word.

In our latest message from Cardonald Parish Church, Santosh Nair reflects on 2 Corinthians 4:16–5:10 and a simple question that can shape the way we approach life: Where are we looking?

Scripture calls us to:

Look Up — to the Lord, our help.
Look In — as God renews us from within.
Look Back — to the finished work of Christ.
Look Around — and see others with compassion.
Look Forward — to the eternal hope we have in Christ.

Paul reminds us that “what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal” and that “we live by faith, not by sight.”

Watch and reflect with us on how fixing our eyes on Christ changes the way we see our circumstances, ourselves, others and the future.

Join us this Sunday at 11 AM at Cardonald Parish Church, as Santosh VN leads our service.

Our reading from 2 Corinthians 4:16–5:10 reminds us that the Christian life is shaped not only by what is in front of our eyes, but by what is eternal.

Scripture teaches us to look in the right direction—and above all, to fix our eyes on God.

Paul writes: "What is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.”

So this Sunday, we will ask a simple question:

Where are you looking?

Join us as we explore how a heavenly perspective changes the way we see our circumstances, ourselves, the people around us, and the future that lies ahead.

It is a powerful reminder that God remains at work, even when His plans unfold in ways we may not expect.

Our reading from John 3:1–18 takes us to Jesus' unforgettable conversation with Nicodemus, where He reveals a life-changing truth:

“You must be born again.”

What does Jesus mean by being born again? Why is it central to the Christian faith? And what does this new life look like today?

Come and discover the hope and transformation that Jesus offers to all who believe.

Join us this Sunday at 11 AM at Cardonald Parish Church, as we welcome Rev. Dr Stewart Gillan (St Andrew's Jerusalem & Tiberias) to lead our service.

Our readings from Romans 8:12–25 and Matthew 13:24–30, 36–43 remind us that, even in a world where good and evil exist together, God's purposes are certain and His promises remain true.

Through the sermon, “Hope Has a Future”, we will discover how the hope we have in Christ enables us to live with confidence, patience, and expectation, knowing that God is at work and that His kingdom will ultimately prevail.
