Bad Things Happening

“You might have seen bad things happening on the TV news… you might be worried ‘bout the world and wonder what will happen to you.” That’s how Colin Buchanan started his famous song ‘The Lord is King’ more than 20 years ago… and nothing has really changed. Even though we get less of our news […]

Coming up this weekend 7th April 2024

This Sunday we have the first of two ‘bonus talks’ from our series by Jodie called The Spirit of Christ as we look at two other passages about the Holy Spirit in the Bible. This week it’s ‘The Spirit of Power’ from Acts 2:1-41, the famous coming of the Spirit at Pentecost. Here are the […]
