About this talk
Scripture: Ezekiel and his vision of a valley of dry bones, Ezekiel 37:1-14
Right now we’re in the middle of a third Lockdown. We’ll hopefully see things start to unlock as the vaccination programme takes effect, but right now we’re still a long way from normal. The pandemic has taken a huge toll on people spiritually and emotionally. We’ve been cut off from one another and from many of the things that sustain our faith. In time we’ll return to in person meetings again, but even as they restart it will be a while before we can ALL be together again; we’ll still be living with restrictions. So what encouragement would God bring us in this time of waiting? We hope this message will encourage people, lift hearts, and impart faith for the future.

Do the foundations of your life pass the 'trust test'? This talk we will consider how God satisfies the four elements of trust.
There are some divine instructions for us, for our lives and yet many of us choose to ignore them.
What is Jesus doing now from His place at God’s right hand?
A good news message looking at 3 areas that were written by God for us to help us understand our lives and find a future full of hope in him.
From mountaintop experience to ground level chaos. Through the life of Jesus and His disciples, we explore what we are made for and what we are called to.
A ship in the harbour is safe, but that’s not what ships are built for! The church being all she is called to be.
The church is intended to be a community, a family, where lonely people can find a place to belong. So why are lonely people not flocking to churches to find family and a place to belong?
We look at what it means to belong in a Christian community. The book of Acts tells us about the early Christian church, how the believers were in community with each other, and what held them together after Jesus ascended to heaven.
The gospel is not just the starting message of the Christian faith, though; it is the whole message. All the blessings that come to us are the result of what God has done for us in Jesus Christ.
