In week three of our 'Abiding in the Vine' series, we reach the turn in John 15 where Jesus moves from talking about abiding in the vine to abiding in His love. Chris unpacks that invitation, showing the obedience Jesus is asking for, and we discover the heart response Jesus is seeking.

In the second week of our Abiding In The Vine series, JP looks at verses 4-8 from John 15. We receive the encouragement that to abide is to slow down, to remain and linger, but our doing so is only possible by coming to Christ before anything else.

In the last of our series exploring the life of Abraham, Tim preaches from Romans 4 where Paul talks about Abraham's justification coming from faith alone. In it we discover the great miracle it is that we likewise are justified and saved by our faith, but it's not our faith on its own that saves us but the one our faith is in!

This Sunday we reached the infamous moment where Abraham goes to sacrifice Isaac, but the Lord provides a ram in Isaac's place. Ben explores all the moments in this story that point to Jesus being a better Isaac for us.

We rejoin our series following the life of Abraham at the point where Abraham (or Abram as he was at this point) is blessed by Melchizedek. In this interaction between Abraham, the king of Sodom and Melchizedek we discover parallels with Satan and Jesus and a decision for us: which kingdom are we living for?

At the outset of a new academic year we look ahead to everything God's leading us into for the coming 12 months. This Vision Sunday Ben preaches from Acts 13, where we see the early Church waiting, making room and multiplying, all things we feel God's calling us to this year.
