David and Abigail

So far in our series exploring David’s relationships we have been focussing on his relationships with men – friends and enemies. For the next three services we are looking at his relationships with three different women, beginning tonight with Abigail. We did jump into the middle of this story, and so we are going to […]

Moses Flees

The Fugitive. The Blues Brothers. Catch me if you can. Thelma and Louise. What do all these films have in common? They are all stories of people on the run, who are fleeing, trying to escape. Some of them are innocent of what they are accused of, but most of them are guilty. Either way, […]

Moses – Baby in a Basket

This morning we are exploring the beginning of the stories of two babies with big futures. They were born centuries apart, but there are so many links between their stories, links that are show us something about God’s consistent love and faithfulness for us. So let’s begin with baby number 1, a little boy. Now, […]

Trinity Sunday 2026

When I first read the gospel reading for this morning, I was a bit confused. It felt like we had gone back in time a bit. We’ve just completed the Easter season, with it’s culmination in the Ascension of Jesus and the sending of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, and now we’re back on the […]

Jesus People

And so, we come to the end of our time exploring this short excerpt from Paul’s letter to the Christians living in Colossae. Well, I say the end, it’s the end of the sermon series, but I hope that it’s not the end, but a step in the journey of us being a people who […]

Peaceful People

This morning is a Church Family Communion service. When we introduced this way of having communion about five years ago we had quite a few conversations about what was important to include whilst we were all together and at what point the young people would go to their groups.

Abundant Life

I wonder if you’ve ever had the experience of walking into a room when two people are having a conversation and you don’t really understand what they’re talking about. Perhaps you can work it out after listening them for a few minutes, or maybe they fill you in on the background. In this morning’s readings […]

Forgiving People

“Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you” This verse is our focus for this morning as we continue our exploration of this section of Paul’s letter to the Christians living in Colossae. As Nick explained last week, this is […]

Joyful Celebration

Oh Praise Him for He is good. Oh Praise Him for He is good. Since we sang that in the opening song of our service last Sunday morning that phrase has been on repeat in my head. I think probably part earworm and part God inviting me to allow that phrase to soak into my […]

Generous Giving

This morning we are continuing our Lent series exploring different ways in which we can put our Christian faith into practice, in which we can follow Jesus in our day to day lives. This week we are celebrating generous giving, as you might have picked up from our time with the youngsters earlier. In our […]
