Reformation theology is not merely historical theology but ultimately Biblical theology. The Reformers did not develop a theology but recovered the Biblical gospel. These sessions will guide you through both the historical context and Biblical basis - we will see how great reformational truths can be applied to our own lives. In this episode, Davy Ellison discusses Sola Gratia - by grace alone we...

In this final session, we look at the Biblical practice of shouting, and physical engagement in worship. When we sing together and remind each other of the message of Christ, the Holy Spirit can fill our hearts with joy; and the Bible gives us plenty of encouragement, commands, and examples of how to express this joy. These sessions were recorded during our January Equip tracks at church.

There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the sun. A time to mourn, and a time to dance... In the last two sessions we are talking about two very different emotions and season - pain, and joy. When we suffer as Christians, what is the Biblical response? As we look into Lamentations and the Psalms, we see that God's word gives incredible dignity for those who are sufferi...

In this session, we look at disagreements over styles of worship, and examine what Jesus tells us about being true worshippers. Don't idolise the tools of worship, but worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth. The Samaritan woman wants to know if they should worship in Jerusalem or on the mountain - Jesus says neither. But true worshippers will worship in the Spirit, and in truth. The Holy Sp...

In this session we join Isaiah in the throne room of heaven.  Ephesians 2:10 tells us that we are saved not just to go through life aimlessly, but to fulfil a higher calling. God Almighty has prepared good works for us to step into - and He calls us to live life to the full by following where He leads. Isaiah is granted a vision into the throne room of heaven to see the Holy LORD God Almighty - an...

During this session, we explore Colossians 3:16. When we sing together, Christ's message dwells in us richly to remind us of the gospel truth we need in order to stand firm. We looked deeper into what exactly Psalms, hymns and songs from the Spirit are, and God's plan for us to be edified as a church when we sing together. These sessions were recorded during our January Equip tracks at church.

Worship is what we gather to do together every week. At its heart, it's an expression of adoration to the Lord. Through these six weeks, we'll be looking at six core scriptures on worship. We'll learn what God's word defines as true worship, and how the gift of communal singing has been given to us to deepen our faith in seasons of joy and pain. This week, we're looking at Romans 12:1. We see how...
