Martin Young,

In fifth part of our current teaching series, we look forward to Christmas and the birth of Christ. We revisit Luke's account of Jesus' life under the banner of 'Take a Walk on the Wild Side'. There are strong themes of spiritual maturity seen in the character and attitudes of key players. Our senior minister, Martin Young shows us that Jesus came to break though our ceiling, our doubts and inadequacies. When the Heaven’s light shines into your life, it becomes clear that God’s Kingdom lives in and through

In the sixth and final part of our teaching series, we explore the Old Testament book of Chronicles and what we can learn about the Kingdom of Heaven, particularly through the story of the Temple. This week our minister, Ali Summers challenges us to explore what attracts us to the temple. We come to be in the presence of God for different reasons and with different emotions. God is calling you to the temple, to put him first, to give him praise, but also to find peace and rest. (Recorded at the 11am Celebra
