Concluding our mini series on Joel, Luke Mansfield reads from Joel 3, reflecting on how when we’re ‘in the pits’ , there can still be hope in the darkness

Continuing our mini series on Joel, last week Zoe read from chapter 2. Zoe looked at the common question people ask; ‘where is God in unwelcome circumstances of life’

This Sunday, we were joined by Jon Bush who kicked off our 3 part series on Joel

Wow! What an amazing Easter Sunday we had, celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Having spent the past few weeks looking at Jesus’ journey to Jerusalem, Luke Mansfield concluded the Lent series; ‘Giving It Up: Death!’ - looking at the different encounters of 3 witnesses to the resurrection - asking if we’re like any of those witnesses 

In the penultimate week of our Lent: Giving It Up series, Luke preaches from Matthew 16:21-28. This week’s topic was ‘Our Lives’, continuing to look at what it means to give up the things that won’t necessarily help us in the short term but will help us be more like Jesus in the long term

This week, Luke Mansfield continues our ‘Lent: Giving It Up’ sermon series, reading from Matthew 5:43-48  - breaking down the meaning of the word ‘Enemies’ and what it would look like if the Holy Spirit did work in us to bring healing, learning to love as Jesus loves

Zoe took to the stage to pick up our ‘Lent: Giving It Up’ series, reading from Genesis and James and looking at how we can make a commitment together to lay down our superiority as we worship and serve together as a church

While we may be giving up something specific for 40 days, Luke looks at how long term sacrifices could help and impact us on our walk with Christ, making us more like Jesus.  We read from Genesis 12:1-4 and John 3:1-17 and looked at the topic of Expectations

Luke Mansfield launched into our latest sermon series, reading from Genesis 2:15-17 and Matthew 4:1-11. As we travel through this Lent season together, we’ll be focusing on how Jesus resolutely sets his face towards Jerusalem - becoming focused on why he came to Earth
