Russ Clarke delivers a message from 1 Samuel 17 and the surrounding chapters describing how Israel went from being a feared army whom the God of heaven and earth was with, to a fearful people hiding in caves and holes from Goliath. How did this happen? Why did the great army of God run in fear from one man? And what does this have in common with the Church of today?

David: A Type of the True Church

City Church Nottingham are based in Selston, Nottinghamshire. We are dedicated to the great commission of Jesus Christ in Mark 16:15-20, which is to 'Go into all the world and preach the Gospel.' We have preached in the open air in Nottingham, Mansfield, and Bulwell among others for over 7 years, now God has called us to the village of Selston and its surrounding areas. Russ Clarke is an Elder with Ryan Clarke serving as a Pastor. We believe everyone who is born again is a minister of Jesus Christ and is called to witness and function in the gift that God has given them, and it is also a major part of this ministry to help people find their ministry and nurture them.  The Gospel has largely been reduced to a humanistic, social gospel with man at the centre rather than God and we are in the time of the Laodicean lukewarm Church as spoken of in Revelation 3 which is also a time of preaching that tickles ears and fosters errors of its leading teachers. (2 Timothy 4:3f).  Jesus emphasized the need of the Gospel to be preached (Luke 4:43) and we desire to obey Him. We desire truth and the power of the Holy Spirit in our individual and corporate ministry, with a heart to pray and seek God for a revival in this our ungodly generation.
