John Hindley

To catch a glimpse of Jesus is to be intrigued. There has never been a man as wise, kind, good, and compelling. There has never been another man in whom we find all the fullness of God.
Death has no victory—the weakness of our fallen state, of our inherited guilt, of our inevitable death is completely undone.
O Lord, make us like John in the wilderness, with our gaze, hearts, and lives consumed by Jesus, your glorious Son.
There is more love, more life, more light in our God than there is hate, death, and darkness in us. Jesus is full of grace and truth, and he is everything we need.
Day by day, we feel like we are struggling to hold onto Jesus. But he has received us. We have been born again into the light. And one day we will walk in that kingdom of eternal light with the darkness finally gone and our hearts finally home.
Unless the Light came to blaze with a love that is full of forgiveness and a life that we can live in his righteousness rather than our own. Unless the Light came not to shine for his own glory but to be put out in the darkness for our salvation.
The stars glimmer with enticing beauty and on a crisp day the sun rises and our hearts leap maybe higher for the brightness of that glory over the snow-dazzled horizon. The Light shines and he will never be put out.
This is the first session from the teaching series “Weakness Our Strength: Learning from Christ Crucified” by John Hindley.
As we walk through life, the painful reality of suffering becomes something we all experience. Tears, despair and hurt are commonplace in a broken world. So how do we even contemplate singing at a time like this?
John Hindley helps us to see the reality, depth and source of our sin problem – and its glorious solution in the gospel of Jesus. 
John Hindley speaks honestly about failure in ministry and the Christian life, and shows how turning to Christ is the only way to avoid both pride and despair. 
John Hindley shows us a vision of serving Jesus which enthuses and inspires us, rather than burden us and kill our joy. 
In this excerpt from 'Suffering and Singing', John Hindley introduces us to the story and songs of the sons of Korah.
