2 Timothy 2:1-3

John 3:16-21

2 Timothy 1:8-18

2 Timothy 1:1-8

John 2:1-11 Does Jesus ruin our fun? There are plenty of things we enjoy in life, from good food and great company to holidays, hobbies and time with friends. So what happens when Jesus steps into the picture? In John 2, Jesus arrives at a wedding where the wine is running out. Is he about to put a stop to the celebrations, or does he have something very different in store? Listen in as we discove...

Ephesians 1:20-23

John 1:35-51 The claims of Christianity are credible. But is following Christ desirable?

Ephesians 1:15-19 Paul’s prayer for the Ephesians encourages us to keep growing in our knowledge of God whilst challenging  what we often prioritise.

John 1:19-34 The good news of Christ is that he is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. But is the Christian claim credible? The first block of evidence John's gospel gives us is the testimony of John the Baptist.

Ephesians 1:11-14 Believers are exceedingly blessed, not least because when we believed we "were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit." This is true of Jew and gentiles, young and old. This should make us prize our belief in Jesus Christ.

John 1:1-18 In Johns summary of his gospel we are brought back to what life is all about: knowing God through Jesus Christ.

Ephesians 1:1-10 The privileges that Christians enjoy are extraordinary. They flow from God’s love for his people. They are celebrated by Paul in order to unite and encourage Christians as they seek to live up to the high calling we have as God’s children.

Revelation 12-13 What is the devil doing right now? How is he operating? What are his objectives? Revelation reveals that the end of the world has been put on hold - but that also means the devil is hard at work before his time runs out. This week, we expose his tactics and strategies, showing how he is actively involved in our world, even right here in the wharf. Listen in as we uncover exactly w...

Colossians 4:7-18 Do you see other Christians as beloved brothers and sisters? As we come to the end of Paul’s letter to the Colossians, we might think his ‘final greetings’ to specific people are irrelevant to us, but actually we see that he’s demonstrating the principle of Christians being knit together in love (2:2) as brothers and sisters in Christ.

Revelation 10-11 We spend our days analysing data, building models, preparing presentations, and delivering results. But beneath all the activity lies a bigger question: what is our true task? In Revelation, God gives a surprising picture of his people—not as spectators or consumers, but as an army engaged in a spiritual battle. Yet this army fights in a way that turns our assumptions about power,...

The whole world needs to hear that Christ is preeminent in everything - if God’s people pray, walk and talk in line with Colossians 4:2-6, they will. 

Revelation 8-9 What does the news of impending judgement mean to you? It will depend on how prepare you are for it and how confident you will be as a result of it. When the scroll about God's judgement is unfolded, heaven is silent for half an hour, God's people pray and the unrepentant continue business as usual. As we see the bottomless pit opened, we will be encouraged to live each day in the l...

Colossians 3:12-4:1 As Christians have now put on the new self, Paul wanted them to let the peace of Christ be woven into every part of their lives, both within and beyond the church.

Revelation 6-7 Who are we, really? We all describe ourselves in different ways—our jobs, our relationships, our interests, our achievements, or the communities we belong to. Yet our sense of identity shapes far more than we realise. It influences how we think, what we value, and ultimately how we live. Listen in as we delve into Revelation's insights on who we are and the significance of our ident...

Colossians 3:1-11 Paul underlines that for a Christian, believing in Christ means everything has changed. Our past, our present, our future – it has all changed, because we are united to Christ in his death, his resurrection, and his coming again in glory. Paul then puts that into practice by explaining what Christians must do in response to this transformation, to live out this renewed, Christ-fi...
