Sermons 2024-25
Deva Church actively encourages everyone to read and study The Bible to find out what God is saying to us as individuals and to The World. We pray that everyone who looks into God's Word will come to know Jesus as their personal Saviour, and with the Holy Spirit's guidance will receive encouragment from the scriptures to help them in their daily lives.
To this end, all our meetings include a reading of God's Word and/or a talk based on a passage of scripture.
