Episodes
The God of Grace -
August 01, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBWe’re perhaps used to talking more about the grace of God than the God of Grace, but grace flows from the God who is grace.
God the Reconciler -
July 25, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBJen looks at the story of Hosea and Gomer to remind us of God’s nature of reconciliation; He is our Father who forgives while we do not deserve it, and we are to follow this family trait of forgiveness and reconciliation in our own lives.
God’s Faithfulness -
July 18, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBContinuing our series on unchanging attributes of God, Lydia talks about God’s faithfulness, reminding us that God’s faithfulness is underpinned and guaranteed by His truth, and exploring that faithfulness through four key words: dependable; trust; remember, and share.
All-Knowing God -
July 11, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBRaphael talks to us about God’s omniscience – His all-knowing nature – in relation to the depth of God’s love, His guiding protection, and His plans for us.
Glorious and Merciful -
July 04, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBIn Exodus 33 and 34, we get a glimpse of God’s glory and hear about His mercy; both are infinite, everlasting, perfect – and knowable, through the person of Jesus.
The Evaluation That Matters -
June 27, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBDan takes us through the story of Daniel’s translation of the writing on the wall that appeared before King Belshazzar. The stark warning the king received reminds us to commit each day to God, and to do everything to make sure our faith is thriving – aligning our `what matters’ with what matters to God!
Finding God in Your Story -
June 20, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBThe story of Esther describes a desperate situation which God powerfully changes and yet He never speaks, does no dramatic miracles, and in fact is never even named. It’s a great encouragement to us that He is always working and we can work with Him.
Living the Nightmare -
June 13, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBDaniel 7 records a terrifying vision that Daniel was given to show him the world he was living in and the hope of God’s ultimate triumph. Christians need to be aware of what is going on around us and behind the scenes, and confident in what Jesus has done and will do. (In response to Luke’s sermon, we played this excellent 90s version of Ancient of Days. Click the link, turn it up loud, sing & dance along!)
Messy Church, Messy World -
June 06, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBIn this message Dan looks at King Hezekiah’s Passover detailed in 2 Chronicles 29-30. This Passover celebration looked a little messy, but it was done for the glory of God; church life may be looking a little messy in the coming months as we return from lockdown, but God will still use His church, and we can still participate.
The Priority of Prayer -
May 30, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBThis week, Chris talks about one of the most well-known stories in the book of Daniel: Daniel in the lion’s den. This incident in Daniel’s life shows us the power of persistent prayer and why prayer should be a constant priority in our lives.
A People of Principle -
May 23, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBIn this message looking at Daniel 3, Nathanael shares how we can remain a people of principle in a culture that wants us to worship anything other than God. Shadrach, Mesach and Abednego recognised where their pressures were coming from, but they resisted quietly and relied on God, who delivered them from the fiery furnace. As Christians, we are similarly called to live differently and, in doing so, discover God’s strength in us through our trials. PJ Smyth’s sermon on healing, that he refer...
Bringing God’s Kingdom Through Our Work -
May 16, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBGod has made us to be his lights in the world, and one vital way many of us can do this is in our place of work. Raphael uses the example of Daniel’s interpretation of dreams in Daniel 2:31-45, and also his own experiences of God in his field of work, to talk about how we can do this.
Gifts That Reveal God’s Purpose -
May 09, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBIn Daniel 2:1-13, King Nebuchadnezzar makes a seemingly impossible demand; nobody but Daniel is able to fulfil it, and purely by the power of God. This week, Luke talks about how we can also use God’s gifts to have seemingly impossible encounters that glorify Him in our daily lives.
Preparation and Proving -
May 02, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBChrist-followers need to be light in the darkness in this world without losing our passion and devotion to Him. Here Matt picks out three “P”s from the story of Daniel being exiled to Babylon to help us see how we can interact with the culture we’re in without losing our integral relationship with Christ.
The Holy Spirit -
April 25, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBDave Holden digs in to Isaiah 61, to encourage us that this is a season of vital preparation in which the Holy Spirit can do remarkable work through us.
The Resurrection Means Life -
April 18, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBIn the second of our two-part series on the meaning of the resurrection, Dan reminds us that the fact that Jesus conquered death and came back to life means He has won life for us – and to this day has the power to totally change our lives for the better.
The Resurrection Means Joy -
April 11, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBIn the first of two special messages on what the resurrection of Jesus means for us today, Luke reminds us that it means joy, now and forever, and the very accounts of Jesus’s resurrection prove this in their tone as well as their content.

Patiently Waiting -
March 21, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBThis week, Luke is talking about 2 Peter 3, how the process of waiting shows us God’s ultimate mercy and patience, but that we should wait with a sense of urgency.
Explaining 2 Peter 2 -
March 16, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBIn a bonus recording to go alongside the message `Springs without Water‘ from March 14th, Luke gives an explanation of the Old Testament events and images used in 2 Peter 2.
Springs without Water -
March 14, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBMatt speaks to us from 2 Peter 2 about what false teaching looks like, and how we can both avoid and prevent its impact in our lives.

The Trustworthiness of Scripture -

Parity -
January 31, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBHumans do a lot of looking up and looking down: we look up at people and feel worse, down at people to feel better. We naturally create hierarchies, even churches do this – but the gospel abolishes them. Here Luke explains how 2 Peter 1:1-2 shows us this.
A Vision of the Church -
January 24, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBDan takes us through Revelation 21; the description of Jesus’ bride, the church, and how He makes her beautiful.

Vision of Jesus -
January 17, 2021 00:00 - 1.4 KBIn Revelation 1 we read of John having an encounter with Jesus that petrified him.

The Nature of the Fight -

Mothers and Fathers -
