Tim Bright joins us this week and speaks on the plans that God has for us, both as individuals and as a church. Using the crossing of the Red Sea as an example, Tim looks at how often the direction we’re going doesn’t seem to be the right way, but by following God he works it all out in the end for our good.
Karen leads the rest of the service with an update on GenR8, our mission of the month for June, and Pete and Nick lead our sung worship.
Shona leads our all-age service for June, looking at the story of Zacchaeus. How did one encounter with Jesus turn a selfish, self-serving, bullying and greedy tax collector’s life around so that he eventually gave half of his money to the poor?
Pete and Nick lead our sung worship this week.
For our Pentecost service this year Simon Bailey reminds us that although churches around the world may have different traditions or ways to worship we are all called as Christians to profess Jesus’ name through the Holy Spirit. There is more that unites us than separates us.
James leads the rest of the service whilst Pete and Nick lead our sung worship.
Roger Standing continues his monthly mini-series looking at Jesus. This week he looks at Jesus’ teaching about how generous God is with us and his undeserving kindness to us: the ungrateful and wicked. How can we reflect that generosity to others?
Andy leads the rest of the service as we share communion together and Pete and Nick lead our sung worship.
Our Mission of the Month for May is Africa Inland Mission (AIM), a cause that is close to our hearts as a church (and a number of our members in particular). Phil Gibson, a representative of AIM joins us this week to speak about his connection to the ministry of AIM. Phil also speaks on Paul’s prayer of thanksgiving to the Ephesian church and looks at how the power of Christ lifts us from our normal lives and gives us a throne in heaven. All we need to do is believe. Strap yourselves in because this talk is a good one!
Susan leads the rest of the service whilst Pete and Nick lead our sung worship.
This week we hold our All-Age service for May. Ant leads us through the service, based around the coronation of King Charles III. We are reminded that whilst Charles may now be our earthly king, we also serve and worship a King greater than any power on Earth.
Mike leads our sung worship this week.
Andrew Dalwood looks at David’s prayer in Psalm 26 and asks whether this would meet Jesus’ model for humility and repentence in prayer explained in Luke 18. Are we like David, too self-righteous in our prayers, too confident in our own abilities and forgetting where that righteousness truly comes from?
James leads the rest of the service, focussing on prayer for our country as the Coronation of Charles III is just around the corner, whilst Mike leads our sung worship.
In the first of a new monthly mini-series on Jesus, Roger Standing looks at how Jesus announced the start of his ministry in his hometown of Nazareth. These were the people who knew him best, what was their reaction to the local tradesman revealing himself as the promised messiah and setting out his mission statement? And how does that reflect our willingness to accept Jesus today?
Karen leads the rest of the service as we get an update from Susan about our mission of the month for April, Home Mission, and Pete and Nick lead our sung worship.
As Chris begins his sabattical we have (for the next few months) a series of guest speakers, many of whom will be familiar to you. This week we welcome back Kevin Burdett who was minister at this church between 2000 and 2013. Kevin speaks to us about his experiences listening to God through the natural world. But are we listening?
Andy leads the rest of the service as we share communion together and Pete and Nick lead our sung worship.
Where does your hope come from? This Resurrection Sunday Chris looks at Jesus’ mission, which was fulfilled through the cross to seek and save the lost. Can Jesus reignite your hope through his sacrifice today?
Susan leads the rest of the service as we also celebrate George and Maureen’s diamond wedding anniversary whilst Pete leads our sung worship.
