Tope Koleoso on corporate prayer

September 3, 2010

Yesterday I spoke about how Terry Virgo and Tope Koleoso are both great at promoting books. Today I want to highlight another aspect that they both in my view stand out in, and it is one that is even more important. This is their commitment to prayer, and corporate prayer in particular. Prayer is vital [...]

Jesus is better

May 21, 2010

When a pastor tells you that a certain passage of Scripture has been one of the most influential on his life, and is among the most precious to him you take notice. When he says that it is a passage he thinks about, or makes reference to almost every week your ears should prick up. [...]

How to Sell 100 Books in 10 Minutes

February 24, 2010

Raised With Christ was launched at Jubilee Church this past Sunday. The people were incredibly gracious in their response, and much to my surprise we sold all 100 available copies in just 10 minutes. I am sure some of that was due to the love of this wonderful family of God for me as one [...]

Tope Koleoso preached the following sermon entitled “A Call to Evangelism” yesterday. It marks the start of a new series at Jubilee that you can follow on our sermons page. If you have ever thought that the book of Acts must be more than just a story of the beginning of the Church, then this [...]

Don’t You Dare Try and Worship God With Your Hands In Your Pockets!

November 5, 2009

My pastor, Tope Koleoso did not say the words in the title of this post. But they are very consistent with the tone and thrust of the following sermon on worship which follows on from what he said last week. I would strongly encourage you to watch both of these talks as you will find [...]

Worship His Majesty!

October 27, 2009

It seems to me that us reformed believers run the risk that we recognize God is holy, but it can feel as though he is distant. To us charismatics God may instead feel close, but perhaps not seem glorious. Reformed believers understand something of the sovereignty of God, and his glory. All too often, however, [...]

Rebuilding Marriages – Following the Manual

September 14, 2009

This sermon is a real treat to watch. So much Christian teaching on marriage is based purely on human wisdom, and amounts to repacked psychological insights. Actually, I have no problem with us learning from such thoughts–since after all if Proverbs tells us to learn from the ants, we can with discernment learn from anywhere. [...]

Last Sunday Tope Koleoso, the pastor of Jubilee Church London, preached this, his first sermon back after a four week break over the summer. He didn’t totally [...]

It’s All About Jesus

August 8, 2009

To our delight at Jubilee a few years ago a few different people who were visiting commented about our church, that it seemed to them to be “all about Jesus” rather than some other things church could be about. There is a song we have sung many times over the years that expresses the same [...]

Video – Tope Koleoso On Alcohol And Other Dilemmas

March 24, 2009

Following on just a couple of weeks from his sermon on sex, Tope preached on another controversial matter. This is a subject where many Christians take very different views from each other.   I think that whether you agree with Tope or not you will, find the sermon of great  interest. If nothing else it [...]
