Exeter Vineyard Church

We are working our way through the New Testament letter of Colossians. Today Dave asks, what is required to receive God’s new life and how do we try to supplement what Jesus has done?

Today we look at the next section of Colossians and read about Paul’s absolute conviction that the Church (capital-C, worldwide, historic body of Jesus, Church) was important enough for him to give everything for. We think about what this might mean for us.

We continue to work our way through the New Testament letter of Colossians. In this video we think about Jesus' place in the universe and his place in our lives.

We continue our serious thinking about who God is and what he does and how this affects the place money has in our life. Today we think about the money we don't have, and how limits on us help shape and disciple us.

As we think about money and our relationship with it, today we think about God's generosity. We are made in God's image to also be generous, so we think about four countercultural ways we express generosity.

We are thinking about the place money has in our lives and the temptation to have money act as a false god. Today we think about where we find our security. If it’s in money we will end up worried and greedy, but if we can find security in God we become free and live generous lives.

We are thinking about the place money has in our lives and the temptation to have money act as a false god. Today we think about God as the ultimate provider and our response to his generosity.

We start our year looking at Paul’s prayer in Romans 15:13 - I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit. This week we think about what it might mean to a live life full of peace and where we find God’s peace.

In this session we hear from Terri and Jenny. Terri talks about her experience of discovering God in beauty and creativity. Jenny shares about how gratitude means we can connect to God, even in hard times.

We continue to think about God's involvement in our everyday lives. Today Lizzie and Sally share about how they have discovered God in different aspects of their lives. Lizzie talks about her passion for music, while Sally shares about how God has been involved in her career. Both of them have found that, in these normal places, he is transforming them and offering them his resources to live the l...

We are thinking about how we can connect to God in our everyday life; how we notice him, worship him, work with him, and draw our resources from him. Today we think about our homes and neighbourhoods, and serving people when they’re having a hard time.

We start our final series on the five different securities of a disciple. For the next few weeks we are talking about being Secure in Everyday Life - how we discover God in our ordinary life, how we turn our normal moments to worship and how we depend on God's resources instead of our own to thrive in each and every day. Today, Dave talks about the shockingly radical idea that God is involved in e...

Having spoken about discipleship groups for a number of weeks, today we go through what actually happens in a discipleship group session.

We continue our series about being church that makes disciples. Today we think about a slightly different approach to reading the Bible, not to learn information, but to give space for God to speak to us

What does God really want us to do with our lives? Is saying yes to him desirable or even safe? What ideas about God do we have rattling around at the back of our head which might make it hard to trust him? Today Dave thinks about God's goodness and how this enables us to take steps of discipleship.

We continue our series about being church that makes disciples. Today Dave talks about how God has an individual call for each of us, and how, when we mostly do church in large crowds or groups, it’s harder to know what God’s unique next step might be for each of us.

Today we think about how we receive nourishment and resources for our discipleship journey by looking at what Jesus said gave him energy - to know and do the will of his Father.

This week Dave thinks about how we understand church. We think about the task Jesus set the church - to make disciples - and how this is something God is doing with each of us.

Today Adam talks about how God places each of us right in the centre of what he’s doing in the lives of those around us and all we have to do is be open to joining in.

As we start to think about God's good news that we find security in, we start to look at the ultimate good news; the end of the story where God makes everything good! Today Dave talks about how this all fits together with what the Bible teaches and the world we see around us.

The only way we know about God he is because he chooses to reveal himself to us. The way he does this helps us understand the sort of relationship he wants with us - even if it sometimes feels strange or unexpected. Today, at our Whole Church Gathering, Dave talks about how we should interpret the way God reveals himself to us as an expression of how much he loves us and wants to know us.
