Significance

This Sunday we live in a world irreversibly changed from the one we are used to. Queen Elizabeth II was a woman of exceedingly strong faith and who was fully aware of her significance and responsibility to God and to the people she served. But what about us? Chris looks at where our significance lies and reminds us that whilst we may seem insignificant God views us completely differently.

Karen leads the rest of the service with reflections and prayers for the new King and the Royal Family whilst Pete leads our sung worship.

Jesus Raises Lazarus

Over the summer we have been looking at four of Jesus’ healing miracles from John’s gospel. This week in the final part of the series Chris speaks on perhaps the most incredible miracle of all – the raising of Lazarus from the dead. We are reminded that God doesn’t always work to our earthly timelines but uses all things to reveal His glory.

James leads the rest of the service with sung worship this week led by Nick and Pete.

Remembering

This week we re-start a series we last looked at in May 2021, looking at Psalm 119: Life From A to Z. And quite appropriately, Chris’ focus for this service is remembering. Can we remember what we learnt over a year ago, and more importantly do we remember God’s promises that he’s made to us?

Susan leads the rest of the service whilst Pete and Nick lead our sung worship.

Jesus Heals The Man Born Blind

In the next part of our summer series on Jesus’ healing miracles throughout John Chris loosk at the story of Jesus healing the man born blind. What does the man’s reaction to Jesus say about our faith? Have we met the Son of Man?

Andy leads the rest of the service with a moment of minor embarassment whilst Pete and Nick lead our sung worship.

Jesus Heals The Paralysed Man

Continuing in our summer series on Jesus’ healing miracles, this week Chris looks at the healing of the paralysed man in Jerusalem. Why did Jesus choose to heal just him and not the others surrounding the pool? And what does the conversation Jesus has with him have to teach us about our attitudes towards miraculous healing?

Shona leads the rest of the service with sung worship led by Pete.

Jesus Heals The Official’s Son

Today we begin our summer series, and this year we will be focussing on Jesus’ healing miracles in the gospel of John. Throughout his book, John outlines seven miracles as evidence that Jesus was indeed who he said he was. In the healing of the official’s son we see that Jesus doesn’t even need to be anywhere near the person for healing to take place and Chris explores the implications of that discovery.

Karen leads the rest of the service with an update on our Mission of the Month for July, Stand by Me, and Mike leads our sung worship. There is also an opportunity for prayer for healing.

Asia Link

This week Jim Gourlay from Asia link visits to update us on their work, particularly focussing on their ministry to the people of Iran.

Chris leads the rest of the service with a reflection from Psalm 96 and we also share Communion together. Nick leads our sung worship.

Acceptance

Part of human nature is the desire to be accepted, whether that is by our family, friends, colleagues, even by society at large. But what do we put ourselves through to try and attain that acceptance? Chris reminds us that whether we are accepted or rejected by the world doesn’t matter, it’s whether we are…
