God Reveals, God Rules || Tim Johnson || Daniel 2

Our story of Daniel continues, as the king of Babalon, Nebuchadnezzar, calls on him to interpret a dream no one else can. At this time, God reveals himself to Daniel to give him the meaning of the Nebuchadnezzar’s dream, an act only God could achieve.

Grace and the Kingdom || Tim Johnson || Matthew 20:1-16

I Believe Jesus Ascended || Tim Johnson || Acts 1:1-11

I Believe Jesus Suffered and Died || Tim Johnson || 1 Corinthians 1:18-25

We’ve covered the first few lines of the Apostles’ Creed already – that God the father is almighty, creator of heaven and earth; and that Jesus Christ is both fully God and fully Human. Today, we’re looking at the practicality of what Jesus did in his time on earth.

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.

Nothing to Boast || Tim Johnson || Romans 2:17-3:8

How do you identify? Anglican? Christian? No religion? And does it matter? So far in our look at the book of Romans, we’ve seen how we all need the good news of Jesus, and that Jesus is also our ultimate judge. Today, Tim’s looking at whether or not our ‘religion’ and religious practices make a difference, or not.

Hannah’s Song || Tim Johnson || 1 Samuel 2:1-10

Today marks the start of Advent, a season of quiet anticipation for Christmas. Maybe not so quiet these days, as seasonal creep brings Christmas carols earlier and earlier, and pre-Christmas catchups mount. But as a church, we’re trying to make space f…

Part of God’s Story || Tim Johnson || Colossians 3:1-14

What stories do we tell ourselves? Maybe stories of success, accomplishment, achievement. Maybe stories of failure, and an attitude of “I’m not good enough”. We’re coming to the end of our series on identity, called You Do You, and well today be explor…

Made for God || Tim Johnson || Galatians 4:4-11

We’re halfway through our You Do You series- exploring this idea of ‘expressive individualism’, and where we find our identity. Modern western culture says to find your true self, you just need to look inward. But as we’ve seen, looking inwards isn’t t…
