As we head into the week of Joyfest we look at Jesus’ unlikely and surprising commission to be light. And we think about the way this changes the way we see ourselves and the work around us

As we approach the week of Joyfest (5th to 11 June), Dave talks about why we do it, what it is and how we can get ready.

We are working our way through the old Testament book of Ruth. Today Dave looks at chapter 3 and thinks about how the themes in this book reflects the broader aspects of God's story. We consider our place - working faithfully in the ‘field’ we find ourselves, knowing that behind the scene Jesus is looking out for us.

We continue to look at the book of Ruth. For this video Dave is thinking about chapter 1 and the idea of movement. How can the journeys in this chapter help us think about our life with Jesus.

We are working our way through the old Testament book of Ruth. Today Hannah looks at chapter 1 and thinks about the example we see of giving and receiving love.

We are working our way through the New Testament letter of Colossians. Today Adam looks at how we live our best life in our closest relationships in response to all that God has done for us.

In this session we look at Paul talking about the true reality hidden behind the temporary world we see around us. And more than just an idea, we think about what it means to live in reality.

We are working our way through the New Testament letter of Colossians. Today Dave asks, what is required to receive God’s new life and how do we try to supplement what Jesus has done?

Today we look at the next section of Colossians and read about Paul’s absolute conviction that the Church (capital-C, worldwide, historic body of Jesus, Church) was important enough for him to give everything for. We think about what this might mean for us.

We continue to work our way through the New Testament letter of Colossians. In this video we think about Jesus' place in the universe and his place in our lives.

We continue our serious thinking about who God is and what he does and how this affects the place money has in our life. Today we think about the money we don't have, and how limits on us help shape and disciple us.

As we think about money and our relationship with it, today we think about God's generosity. We are made in God's image to also be generous, so we think about four countercultural ways we express generosity

We are thinking about the place money has in our lives and the temptation to have money act as a false god. Today we think about where we find our security. If it’s in money we will end up worried and greedy, but if we can find security in God we become free and live generous lives.

We are thinking about the place money has in our lives and the temptation to have money act as a false god. Today we think about God as the ultimate provider and our response to his generosity.

We start our year looking at Paul’s prayer in Romans 15:13 - I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.

This week we think about what it might mean to a live life full of peace and where we find God’s peace.

In this session we hear from Terri and Jenny. Terri talks about her experience of discovering God in beauty and creativity. Jenny shares about how gratitude means we can connect to God, even in hard times.

We continue to think about God's involvement in our everyday lives. Today Lizzie and Sally share about how they have discovered God in different aspects of their lives.

We are thinking about how we can connect to God in our everyday life; how we notice him, worship him, work with him, and draw our resources from him. Today we think about our homes and neighbourhoods, and serving people when they’re having a hard time.
