From the Altar to the Table
March 24, 2024 00:00Rob shared with us on Communion, as part of our Hospitality to Grace series. The Lord’s Supper, or Communion, is a practice that is right at the centre of the Church throughout history. Yet, over history this practice has changed from a full meal around a table- filled with gratitude, joy and celebration; to a quiet, contemplative, individualistic reflection on our sin and its cost to Jesus. What was Jesus’ original design and intention for communion? And how could we reimagine communion as ...
Who is My Neighbour?
March 17, 2024 00:00Anna shared on Sunday asking us, Who is My Neighbour? as we looked at Luke 10:23-37. Jesus said: “love your neighbour as yourself”. What if we were to reimagine our homes not as a castle to hide in, but as an outpost for the Kingdom of God? What if our tables were tangible expressions of God’s love? What if our tables were the setting where strangers become neighbours and neighbours become brothers and sisters
Radically Ordinary Hospitality
March 10, 2024 00:00Anna kicked off our new series leading into Easter. She spoke on Radically Ordinary Hospitality. How do we invite the people around us to meet and be transformed by Jesus? For much of history, God’s people have gathered around the table.

The table is a very ordinary place, so it is easily overlooked as a place of healing and...

Justice is a Person
August 13, 2023 00:00The word ‘justice’ can produce many different responses within the Church. Many of us associate ‘justice’ with a specific cause or ‘issue’, which demands some kind of response from us. Justice is a long and complex theme that is woven throughout the Bible that finds its origins in Genesis, with the very first instance of injustice being found between Cain and Abel. Here, and in many other places throughout scripture, we see that God hears the cries of those in distress or facing injustices. A...
