Brighton Rock

On Sunday, our friend Steve Levy is joining to preach the penultimate message from our 1 Peter series. Get to know his story by listening in on this conversation he had with Pete Greasley from 2015.

As our series through 1 Peter draws to a close, Lindsey and Lewis dissect Sunday’s message ‘Post-Christian Survival Guide’ and answer listener questions.

[If you find Lew’s keys, please get in touch…]

It’s a We Are Christchurch special as Lewis travels to East Sussex to meet Terry Virgo.
We hear Terry tell his story from his early life in Brighton, conversion through his sister’s boldness and subsequent ministry spanning seven decades.

Terry has seen God move, first among a small group of believers and outward into a movement of 1500 churches in over 70 countries globally.

It was thrilling to hear him tell the story of grace from first to last.

Here’s the chat.

On Sunday September 17, Joel Virgo preached a wonderful message from Matthew 8. If you haven’t heard it, here it is.

The day before preaching, Lew sat down with him to hear his story of life and ministry. Here’s the chat.

A quick pod! 
Gav and Lew travelled to East Sussex this week (you’ll have to listen in to find out why). On the way home they took a few moments to look back over the first two years of The Church Office.

We’re back!

After a summer break, The Debrief returns to delve deeper into the message preached at Christchurch Newport last Sunday. It was called ‘A Good Life’ and you can hear it here.

The night before school restarts (which might explain some of the background excitement…), Lindsey and Lew recap the message, probe a little deeper into applying it to our lives, and answer listeners questions.

Christchurch Newport are a people together, to make Christ known, to all. If we can serve you in any way, get in touch. We’d love to connect.

Tom Clewer is an old friend. Of Christchurch, of the pastoral team, of Lew, and of so many in our church. He's the pastor of Grace Community Church, Porthcawl, and on August 20 he's coming to preach Psalm 121 to us.

Ahead of his coming, Lew visited the Welsh Riviera to hear something of his story. Grace abounds!

In 2018, alongside a small group of believers, Owen and Charlotte Cottom planted Grace Church Cardiff, located in Grangetown - the most ethnically diverse postcode in the country. Ahead of him coming to preach on August 6, Lewis caught up with him to hear some of his life story and how Grace was started.

Before we take a break for the summer, Pete and Lew get together to chat more about Sunday’s message, and answer your questions - thank you! They cover a load of territory from transgenderism, to belonging to why there are better podcasts out there…

During the conversation, Pete referenced a message Ed Shaw gave at Christchurch recently. You can listen to that here.
