"Discernment is not a matter of telling the difference between right and wrong; rather it is telling the difference between right and almost right."
- Charles Spurgeon

Join us this week as Pastor Nick Barber shares with us how easy it can be to be drawn into battles that we are not called to fight, with the wrong weapons, against those that are not actually your enemy.

In which battles do you need to put down your sword and pick up prayer this year?

Time For Jesus

13/12/2020

“Time is your most precious gift, because you only have a set amount of it.”
- Rick Warren

Our lives are busy. We have things to do, people to see, bills to pay. Extra time seems to be for most a luxury they cannot afford.
But who are we making time for? And are they breathing life into us, or stealing it from us?

Listen to Steve Hill as he shares why making time for Jesus may just be the best thing you will ever do.

Letting Jesus Love You

29/11/2020

" No one can read the Gospels without feeling the actual presence of Jesus. His personality pulsates in every word. No myth is filled with such life."
- Albert Einstein

It's easy to serve others. At least in comparison to letting others serve us. But is this the example Jesus has set us? Or are we called to not only bless others in their service, but also to let Jesus himself serve us?

This week, join us as Pastor Nick Barber shares with us how important it is to not just serve others, but to let Jesus serve us.

The Good News of Jesus According To John - Part XII

" No one can read the Gospels without feeling the actual presence of Jesus. His personality pulsates in every word. No myth is filled with such life."
- Albert Einstein

In the immortal words of Fred Figglehorn, "I wanna be a celebrity". As we explore one of Jesus' most 'celebrity' moments this week, we are struck with a question. How much are we led by our desire to be admired?

As we search for what glory looks like in our lives, will we be enticed by the crowd, or will we choose to focus on the cross?

The Good News Of Jesus According To John - Part XI

" No one can read the Gospels without feeling the actual presence of Jesus. His personality pulsates in every word. No myth is filled with such life."
- Albert Einstein

What do you think you need in this season? Money, assurance, health?

What if things are actually worse than we think? And what if we need immeasurably more than we think we do? Are you (ironically) delaying growth in your life by refusing to let something die?

Listen as Pastor Nick Barber shares why although things may be worse than we think, the solution is so much better than we ever could have hoped for,

Dragged To Shore

"It's a parable about the indiscriminately inclusive way the catholic... cosmic... intention of our Father who made all things, to restore all things to Himself in Christ. It's a big parable"
- Steve Frost
Join us as Steve frost shares with us when, not where, in this parable we currently are, as well as how inclusive, indiscriminate, and entire, the dragnet of grace is. Boots, bottles, Speckled Trout, and all.
