Public services on Sundays and Wednesdays have now resumed at the Tabernacle; please see notice below. New visitors wishing to attend should phone (020 7735 7076) or email (info@metropolitantabernacle.org) and will be given priority tickets. Services will also be streamed online.

Public worship was resumed at the Tabernacle on Sunday 5th July to the great joy of all who attended. We have now had several Sundays to refine our system for safely accommodating attenders with social distancing. Providing there is no worsening of the Coronavirus situation in London, we are now able to welcome back those over 70 and those who were previously shielding, and to reconvene Morning School for the young.
Public worship has also resumed for Wednesday night Bible Studies, but not for church prayer meetings which continue online for members and adherents, as for Sunday School and Bible Class services.
Please consult the list of arrangements and precautions here

2 Corinthians 11.5
Sermon by
Dr Peter Masters
Paul speaks reluctantly of his life and work to defend his standing, so attacked by heretics. Here is his level of commitment, contention for the truth, and faithfulness through labours, privation and persecutions. Is our commitment diluted by the affluence, comfort and self-care of our age?

Judges 17.1
Sermon by
Dr Peter Masters
The Bible has many biographies of people who came to know God, and of others who failed to do so. The story of Micah remarkably portrays dead or false faith, and how it differs from a sincere approach to God, and authentic conversion.

Sermon by
