Nehemiah wasn’t the only one rebuilding Jerusalem after the exile. Alongside him stood Zerubbabel, who rebuilt the temple, and Ezra, who restored the law. Together, they accomplished incredible things—but even their best efforts fell short of the vision the prophets spoke of. In this short video, we look back at all three leaders and ask: What were they really building? And how does their work poi...

Working together to achieve something is always the best way, but what if we don't all agree? Martin brings us the next installment in the Nehemiah story where we see that sometimes we need to lay aside our personal interests for the common good and vision. Does that mean we have to agree on everything: absolutely not! Listen as Martin inspires us to move on, and Richard and Stu share their though...

What do we do when we need to 'do the right thing'? How do we equip ourselves? Helen reminds us from Nehemiah (and Star Wars!!) that when we do the right thing, good will win, God wil win. It may not be easy, but it will be worth it. Lesley and Angie give us their take on the message.

Russell Braund heads off with the first in our "Nehemiah - Rebuilding More than Walls' series and Sue and Anna lead us through the morning. Nehemiah was bold and humble: he worked and he prayed.

Are you pr...

Shaun Hornsby from British Youth for Christ brings a real challenge and shares exciting news: young people are more interested in Jesus now than they have been for decades. But how are they going to know Him if we don't tell them? Thi is a word for everyone: either to tell people about Jesus or to get to know Him better yourself.

David concludes this series with some practical tips for how we can begin to adopt some 'good' habits.

You can get all the episodes in the series as podcasts, or find them on YouTube: search Horley Baptist. Have you g...

It can be so easy to slip into 'bad' habits - and seem so hard to change. Ian binrgs us some guidance and ideas, and suggests this is way more than 'self -help' but rather a Jesus foussed solution. Lesley and Sue take it further as they share their thoughts and stories.

This Sunday we take a break from our usual livestream to go a little deeper with Phil and Martin. How well do we actually know Jesus? Do we have a westernised (sanitised???) picture of him?
