Ali Herbert continues our series on the ‘Listening Life’. The big picture is that through prophecy God speaks to us directly today, into specific situations, contexts, communities, to us as individuals, to us as a church and sometimes even more broadly than that.

As we learn to be ‘Light for the City’ we discover we will need the gift of prophecy to see the church built up, to remind us God knows us and is with us and to know that God wants to speak to us today.

Tim Hughes continues our new series on the ‘Listening Life’ exploring some practical steps we can take into hearing God in our daily lives.

Nick Drake opens our new series on the ‘Listening Life’ exploring what it means to truly ‘hear’ God’s voice from Deutoronomy 6 and Mathew 21.

Tim Hughes shares on what it looks like to live by faith and not by site in all areas of our life. Specifically looking into our faith in prayer, faith in actions and faith in our finances.

Michael unpacks Romans 12, exploring that as followers of Jesus we can’t just receive the gospel, we have to also share it! We discover that shouldn’t simply come to church to have our spiritual needs met but come to encourage and serve one another.

Damilola unpacks 1 Corinthians 12, sharing God’s heart for unity and diversity in the body of Christ. God desires that we should have equal concern and honour for one another.

These are days where the church needs to wake up and grow in what it means to pray. The challenges around us are intense and real. In moments of trial and opportunity the early church prayed fervently. What holds us back from powerful praying? How do we grow in it? In this talk Tim shares his passion to see the church alive and bold in prayer.

Ria from our student community unpacks what it means to stand on faith from 2 Corinthians 5:7. In this message, Ria recounts stories of how trusting God has guided her through life’s challenges.

In Ephesians Paul challenges us to pray at all times in all ways - but when we’re busy people with busy lives, how on earth can do that?! In this Worship for Everyone talk, Martha explores why we should pray and then offers some practical tips on how we can build prayer into our daily lives. 

This is the final part of our 7-week journey following the travels of Paul the Apostle and we are ending in the mighty city of Rome. Paul is under house arrest for two years and could be frustrated by the limitations he is facing in his ministry - but he decides to write letters, including the letter we look at here: 2 Timothy. His limitation proves to be our incredible gift as we explore his words, story, teaching, wisdom and challenge.

With his parting words, Paul encourages his protege and fellow-worker Timothy to:

Keep his eyes on the prize

Keep his feet on the track

Keep going.

Ali looks at what that meant for Timothy and what that could mean for us today, how we might keep going in our own faith journey, grow in our discipleship, connect with others and encounter Jesus in order that we, too, might reach the finish line.

Nick Drake explores Acts 27 and what we can learn from Paul’s experience in navigating life’s storms. How we can look to Jesus even in the darkest night when all bearings seem lost.
