Hatfield Christian Church

One of the ways you grow in your Christian character and gifts is by being part of a community of believers. Sharing our experiences and being challenged by others allows us to mature. Join Pastor Louis, and let’s grow together in community!

In community, you gain support and give support to others. As Ecclesiastes reminds us, two are better than one, and a cord of three strands is not quickly broken! Uncover with Pastor Louis how community becomes exponentially stronger in God’s presence.

The joy and power of Kingdom-community are that we participate through serving and giving. Discover with Pastor Louis what radical generosity looks like in God’s Kingdom as we help make His presence felt and seen.

How can you love yourself and others well in community, just as Jesus loves us? Explore this question of how you can receive God’s love and give it to others with Pastor Louis.

To belong requires others. You simply can’t have a sense of belonging without others. And God made us for community, so how can you embrace being seen and seeing others? Pastor Louis invites you to belong, as a follower of Jesus, amidst our increasingly individualistic culture.

Do you, like the sons of Issachar, feel like you understand the times and seasons and know what God is doing in our time? Delve deeper with Pastor Duane White, on a visit from the USA, to explore what God might be saying to us NOW.

Paul encourages us in Romans to rejoice in our sufferings because it produces perseverance. Does this feel like a tall order to you? Then let Pastor Stuart Bell, on a visit from the UK, help you discover the power of perseverance.

The Church, from the start, has faced tough times. The Revelation to John makes this clear as he writes to the seven churches in Asia Minor. So how do you triumph as a Christian in tough times? Spend time with Neil Bester as he focuses our attention on Jesus.

Do you have an overwhelming sense that our world and nation need prayer? Explore with Pastor Louis how to pray for the nations as God’s people, seeking just leadership and taking a stand against the darkness.

Jesus is our hope of glory. He brought the glory of the divine presence and light into our dark world. And with Paul, we can cry, ‘Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?’* because JESUS IS RISEN! *1 Corinthians 15:55 NIVUK

Jesus was betrayed by Judas, denied by Peter, interrogated and intimidated by the Jewish religious leaders, and handed over to Pilate to be crucified. But Jesus’ death was not the end of the story.

Our relationships with God, ourselves and others have a huge impact on the direction of our lives. Discover with Pastor Louis how to abide more deeply and have fruitful, healthy, meaningful relationships with Christ, your fellow believers, the world, and the Spirit.

Jesus said that unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. So, what does it mean to be alive in Christ? Unpack this question with Pastor Louis and discover life and more fruitfulness in Jesus.

Jesus is the light that shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. Join Pastor Letsholo and delve deeper into what Jesus means in John’s gospel account when He says, “I am the Light of the world.”

Don’t we so often frame Jesus by our worldly or religious expectations, not believing in who He truly is? Consider with Pastor Louis what believing in Christ means and that Jesus said streams of living water would flow from those who believe.

Some of Jesus’ teachings were hard and challenging, causing a number of His followers to turn away from Him. But as Peter responded, “You have the words of eternal life.” Join Neil Bester in exploring what a life lived in Christ looks like.

In Jesus’ day, there were many systems of authority, such as the family and religious leaders, including the Pharisees, all subject to Roman rule and occupation. Jesus often confronted these systems of authority and their abuse of power. If you want a deeper understanding of Christ’s authority and our authority in Him as His followers, this message is for you.

What does it mean, and what does it look like to be a follower of Jesus? Join Pastor Louis in considering what John outlines as the life of a fruitful Jesus follower in his gospel account.

What do Jesus’ first miracle and the clearing of the temple courts in John’s gospel account have in common? Join Pastor Louis in exploring the significance of these events and how Jesus intends for His cleansing to lead to more fruitfulness in our lives.

As whole-life disciples abiding in Christ, we want to live fruitful lives. In this introductory message, Pastor Louis unpacks how the book of John invites you on a journey of abiding in the Vine and bearing more fruit in your everyday life.

As our week of prayer and fasting draws to a close, pause with Pastor Louis to consider the significance of communion and why we continue to take part in this sacrament as believers. And, join us in having communion in remembrance of Jesus, the True Vine.

Come, sit at the feet of the Gardener. Come, tap into the Vine. Ask Him to fill you – fill us – with faith for our frontlines this year as we abide together during our week of prayer and fasting. Come.

Do you wonder what our key Hatfield family values are? And what it means to be a community on a mission, making whole-life disciples? Pastor Louis, our senior pastor, unpacks this and much more for you.

A new year often means a new season. And Neil has an encouraging devotional word for you, from Zechariah, that God wants to deal differently with us than in the past. God desires to strengthen our hands for his Kingdom work.

It is a new year, offering you new opportunities. Pause with Pastor Louis to start the year right, surrendering yourself to the Lord and all that lies ahead.
