Vision Night Talk
At our Annual Church Meeting, we had the opportunity to hear from James as he shared more about the vision and strategy we believe God is leading us into as a church. It was an encouraging time to reflect on where we’ve come from, and to look ahead with faith and expectation for all that’s to come. We’re excited about the direction God is calling us in as a church and how each of us can play a part in that journey.

MTV? Why Beauty Matters
The King took Sir Keir Starmer to see his beautiful new town in Cornwall this week. Afterwards Sir Keir said he wants to build another 120 towns like it.
Why do we long for beauty in our communities, what does good design reveal about humanity and the Creator and does excellence matter in things we do?

Holy Spirit and prophecy in the New Testament
How does God get our attention? This week, Wayne continued our series on the Holy Spirit by looking at Ezekiel 37 and its connection to prophecy in the New Testament. The message of renewal and God's breath of life in Ezekiel applies to us today, encouraging us to think about the work of the Holy Spirit in our lives and how we can experience spiritual renewal now.
The Holy Spirit, the Power of God
This week James continued our talk series on the Holy Spirit, leaning into the Power of God. Our reading was from Exodus 3:1-12 and James spoke on how to pray for God's purposes not our purposes and led us to ask ourselves the question "Do I want the power of God inside me?"
