God the Father, Creator of Heaven and Earth || Tim Johnson || Psalm 8
How would you summarise the beliefs Christians hold? Since the second century, the best summary has been found in the Apostles’ Creed – a punchy statement of faith containing the foundational beliefs Christians across the world agree on. We’re spending this term looking through the Creed, line by line, in a series we’re calling “I Believe” – a line repeated throughout the Apostles’ Creed.

A Lifestyle of Praise || Songs of Joy || Psalm 96

Good Posture || Songs of Joy || Psalm 95
We had to learn heaps in 2020. From coughing into your elbow to scanning QR codes, there was lots of change. As we get back to some level of normality and we get to do things again (outbreaks notwithstanding), there’s a sense of joy.
This new series l…

Coronavirus || In The Valley || Psalm 103
With the increasing restrictions on day-to-day life, many of us are missing and grieving the loss of being together. Since the beginning of the year, we’ve been going through a series – In The Valley – looking at ‘valley’ emotions, those difficult emot…
Hope || In the Valley || Psalm 27
Hope. Through all the Valley emotions in this series, hope remains. The state of mind that something good might happen, or something bad might not happen. Through the bible, we see an ultimate hope in Jesus – the belief that something good WILL happen….
Despair || In the Valley || Psalm 88
This is a tough topic. We believe that God has something to speak into all the circumstances of our life, including fun times and tough times.

Guilt || In the Valley || Psalm 38
Do you feel guilty about buying things you don’t need? Or about drinking too much on the weekend? Maybe sugar and chocolate is your guilty pleasure. What does the bible tell us about feelings of guilt? Julie continues our In the Valley series, looking …
Anger || In the Valley || Psalm 137
The imagery of ‘anger’ is often fire – burning with anger, smouldering with anger, anger flaring up inside us. There’s always a spark to it as well, something that sets us off. Do you get irritated, annoyed, or frustrated? Don’t we all. Tim continues o…
Fear || In the Valley || Psalm 56
There are many ways the Bible approaches the feeling of fear – too many to fit in one talk, in fact – whether it’s a helpful caution or a reverent fear or an irrational anxiety.
This week, Kirk bring us one of these examples from the book of Psalms as …
I am a Whole Person || Who Am I? || Psalm 84
There is more to a person than just the physical impulses. Science would say that you and your personality, your memories, your decisions, are nothing more than electrical signals in your brain, reacting with nerve cells and molecules. The bible though…
Come & See || Rosemary & Andrew
Like Sam Johnson, who’s excited about his train set, and wants to show his dad, Andrew and Rosemary invite us to come and see how Jesus has been at work in their lives.
