Kenny preaches this week on God's covenant with Abra(ha)m and we learn how that covenant applies to us and how we are encouraged to live a life of faith.

Sherami explains how this divine dialogue between God and Hagar reveals that he cares for her life, freedom and agency.

We hear this week from Heather who discusses the story of Abram's journey into Egypt and how it can reveal to us how Christians can journey into life without a map, but with a God who comes close to us.

Colin preaches this week on John's narrative conclusion to his gospel that is designed to help his disciples to participate in the continued life of Jesus’ resurrection body.

He also draws our attention to the fact that while this is a triumphant passage, it also looks at human failure and how Jesus meets us in our lowest moments.

He is Risen! Shadi preaches this Easter Sunday from John 20 and invites us all to turn towards the risen Christ.
