What does doing justice look like in the public square? As Christians, we are called to see where the tapestry of God's creation has become undone, and to weave people back into the picture.
What should the church look like today? Ephesians 4 is full of encouragements for the church and shows us where today's church can be restored to fulfill its purpose.
Racism is a big issue in our society and a big issue to God, but why? And how does the church model something different corporately and as individuals?
Doing justice is by definition proactive, but how do we do justice in today's world? In this talk, Joe looks at the meaningful implications for this in the future of Grace Church at three levels: relief, development and social reform.
What does it mean to leave an eternal legacy? In this talk, James Waddell, Director of Partnerships at Compassion UK, unpacks the story of Caleb to show how we can reflect more, risk more and invest more for God's kingdom.
Justice is a theme that is much discussed in secular culture today and is also a major theme throughout the Bible. God’s people are called to do justice by giving people their rights and generosity, especially to the vulnerable and those in need.
1The Bible is quite practical on what giving should look like for God’s people and it is all based on this principle of demonstrating love and faith to a God who has loved and given to us so abundantly.
Jesus tells his followers that the best way to maximise enjoyment of his love to us, is for us to love one another. As we, the church, are deliberately loving and loved, we will remain in Christ’s love to us.
The story of Jesus turning water into wine at the wedding in Cana is familiar to many people. Tim Blaber takes a fresh look at the story and encourages us to grow in our love for Jesus so that we may become more like him.
Joseph lived his life wih God at the centre of everything. How can we learn to do the same, no matter what life throws at us? And what does Joseph's story have to do with what Jesus has done for us?
Throughout the book of Genesis, it is clear that the people God chooses to use are flawed and broken people. Nothing has changed since then and God continues to use broken people and offer to breakthrough to broken people.
Leah is rejected and unloved by her father and husband Jacob. God sees her and uses her in His great plan of salvation.
Because of the resurrection we have a great exchange through Jesus. Peace instead of fear, forgiveness instead of judgement and freedom in place of condemnation.
What did Jesus mean when he said "the one who believes in me will live, even though they die"? In this Good Friday talk, Joe looks at the life and death of death itself.
Jesus unequivocally declared himself to be king but he did it by behaving in ways we don’t classically associate with kings. He came riding on a donkey and he came with a gentle and lowly heart, and yet he came as king of the universe.
Because of God’s grace, there is nothing stopping us from being reconciled to him. Jacob was scared about reconciling with his brother who had wanted him dead; but in the end, Esau, like God the Father is even more keen to reunite than Jacob is.
God asks Abraham to do the unthinkable and yet Abraham has such faith in God and his promises that he is willing to obey. This obedience is only possible when it flows from faith that God is faithful and that he will provide.
God exercises his judgement with devastating consequences for the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. But why did he rescue Lot and his family?
The war in Ukraine poses many questions. How will this crisis end? How should we respond when we see terrible suffering? How does God view what is going on? We need to be rooted in God’s word so that at times of uncertainty we know where our hope lies.
This preach looks at the amazing story of a woman called Hagar who suffered a huge injustice, but God found her in the wilderness and gave her a future and a hope.
