Online Worship - Your weekly service to watch at home

In today's online worship, we're going to be thinking, what is Jesus's heart? How can we describe his posture, his essence, the way he is in the core of himself towards me and you? Our weekly service is led by Rev Nathanael Poole. Grab a cup of tea and a comfortable seat and enjoy worshipping with us from home. This week is the Fifth Sunday after Trinity. #onlineworship #onlinechurch #...

This week we are looking at one of the most difficult passages of the Bible, the Binding of Isaac in Genesis 22. We will be thinking, how do we make sense of such a harrowing story? What does it tell us about God? And ultimately, what does it reveal to us about the God revealed to us in Jesus Christ? Thank you for joining us for a service of Online Worship led by Rev Nathanael Poole. Grab a cup of...

In today's online worship will be considering the cost of being a disciple of Jesus. Jesus's words: 'Those who saved their lives for their own sake will lose it. But those who give up their lives for the sake of me will find life that is truly life.'

This week we are looking at Jesus' call of the Apostle Levi from a tax collector and the quote by a leading civil rights activist: "When my brothers seek to exclude me by drawing a circle around me, I will seek to include them by drawing a bigger circle." Thank you for joining us for a service of Online Worship led by Rev Nathanael Poole. Grab a cup of tea and a comfortable seat and...

As we celebrate Trinity Sunday we are thinking about how God reveals himself more and more throughout the Bible. Just like when we get to know a friend or a romantic partner, or even a child's relationship with a parent, we see more of who they are and their character in different circumstances of our lives. Thank you for joining us for a service of Online Worship led by Rev Nathanael Poole. G...

This week we are thinking about the day of Pentecost, the birthday of the church, not propelled by a theological idea or a political one, but born of the Spirit of God with witnesses in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. Take 15 minutes to enjoy this reflection at home with a comfy sit down and nice cup of tea! This week is Pentecost.

What does it mean for the kingdom of God to come? What does it look like? When will it be here? In this week's Online Worship, as we remember Jesus ascending to heaven and waiting for the day of Pentecost and the birthday of the church Rev Nathanael Poole reflects on the Kingdom's expansion all over the globe. Grab a cup of tea and a comfortable seat and enjoy 15 minutes of worshipping wit...

In today's online worship, we're going to be thinking about the theme of martyrdom, how there are some things in this life so important that we might be willing to die for them, and that in this world, naturally, we may have enemies and have the teaching of Jesus teaches us not to hate our enemies, but for us to be empowered by the Holy Spirit in order that we might love them and pray for...

This week it's the tale of two religions - one that enslaves you and makes you feel less of yourself, and the second is the way of Jesus which makes you more of who you are and frees you. Take 15 minutes and listen to this week's service of Online Worship from St John's Church in Farsley as Rev Nathanael Poole reflects on this week's bible reading. This week is the Fourth Sunday of...

In today's online worship, we'll be thinking a little bit about faith and how it is always involves our minds, our intellect, but also our hearts, our emotions and feelings. Grab a cup of tea and enjoy our weekly reflection led by Rev Nathanael Poole. Grab.

This week we are thinking about faith and how, according to Rev Nathanael Poole, it is always mixed with doubt. Grab a cup of tea and enjoy this week's service of Online Worship from St John's Church in Farsley. This week is the Second Sunday of Easter.

Alleluia! Christ is risen! On this Easter Day we have a special service of Online Worship from Rev Nathanael Poole as we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. Grab a hot cross bun and enjoy this time to reflect on the Easter story and what it means for all our lives.

As we begin Holy Week and look ahead at what is to come at Easter we reflect on Jesus' big showdown with authority. Ultimately Jesus wins, as Rev Nathanael Poole explains, but not in the way anyone thought he would.

It's three for the price of one this week as we look a bible reading from Ezekiel where new life is breathed into old bones. This week Rev Nathanael Poole has invited Rebecca, Pauline and Louis from our congregation to each share a short sermon reflecting on this passage. Three different perspectives on the same piece of the bible. We hope you enjoy the sermon bonanza!

It is a wonderful thing to be chosen. It is a feeling we can all recognise, but what does it mean when we are told we are God's chosen people? Rev Nathanael Poole looks at this as we celebrating Mothering Sunday.

Jesus is standing in front of us saying, it's me. I'm the one you've been looking for. I am the end of your search. I am your home. Rev Nathanael Poole reflects on a story which feels in complete contrast to the one we looked at in last week's service.

When Nicodemus confronts Jesus, he is told that nobody can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again. But what does Jesus mean? Rev Nathanael Poole unpacks this famous passage from the Gospel of John for the Second Sunday of Lent.

As we begin our journey through Lent, Rev Nathanael Poole asks whether or not you blow your own trumpet. Are you the same in public as you are in private?

This Sunday, as we prepare for the start of Lent, we are looking at a reading from Matthew's Gospel which describes the Transfiguration. It is the moment in the Bible where Jesus reveals his glory to three of his disciples. Rev Nathanael Poole reflects on what we can take away from this story.

This week we look at a passage from the bible where Jesus tells us not to worry. But just telling someone not to worry doesn't easily stop someone from worrying - in fact quite the opposite. And Jesus knows this. So what can we learn from this? Rev Nathanael Poole reflects on this passage from Matthew's Gospel for the Second Sunday before Lent.

It's just 40 days since we celebrated Christmas, we will shortly begin the countdown to Easter, but today is the day we mark Candlemas and reflect on the story of Mary and Joseph taking Jesus to the Temple.

The cross is central to our Christian faith, but why is it so important and what does it teach us about what it means to follow Jesus? Rev Nathanael Poole unpicks this with reference to this week's bible reading.

A short service of Online Worship from St John's Church in Farsley as Rev Nathanael Poole helps us reflect on the Second Sunday after the Epiphany.

A reflection from St John's Church in Farsley where Rev Nathanael Poole helps us look at the story of the Baptism of Christ.

At Epiphany our Christmas story reaches the point where the Three Kings, or Wise Men, visit baby Jesus. So what should we take away from this part of that famous story?
