The Genealogy of Jesus

God speaks to those we’d least expect through dreams that are windows into reality and they need interpretation through prayer, community and scripture. These dreams can encourage or warn and should be responded to in faith and will be used by God for His good purposes.

When you have an awe-inspiring authentic meeting with God, you will be changed. Si unpacks Isaiah’s response to God and helps us to consider our response when we have our own encounters with God.

Nehemiah’s prayer and fasting was an act of surrender, repenting from living life his own way and acknowledging that he couldn’t resolve the issues before him in his own strength. We can also sit before God and cry out about situations we face, surrendering ourselves in prayer and through fasting.

In this message, Annie considers the difficulty of Mary's circumstances and her response to them in Luke 1. We see how prayer and praise are of highest importance when we face all kinds of trials and difficulties.

Who's the main character in your life? Through the story of Simeon meeting the baby Jesus in the temple, Si explores what it looks to wait on God and to trust him.

On our final One Church Sunday, as we look ahead to being together in one place from the 25th February onwards, we welcome Guy Miller to continue our series about prayer. In Exodes 33 we read that God spoke with Moses ‘as a man speaks to his friend’. Guy helps us to see what this kind of prayer life looks like for the church?

If you are Christian, and if you encounter God the way Jacob encountered God, you are blessed - even though you may walk with a limp. In this message, Dave explores what it means for us to have a meaningful encounter with God as we learn more about prayer.

Jabez prayed and followed through with faith and obedience. God honoured this and Jabez stood out in his generation. As we pray, we too can be heard and honoured.

The disciples saw something in the way that Jesus prayed that caused them to seek him out and ask him 'Lord, teach us to pray.' Si helps us to see how asking the same question today is essential to for Life Church.

Jon considers the journey God's people made when He lead them out of Egypt toward the promised land. Our own journey following God does not always go the way we might expect, nor does it always happen in the expected time frame, but God has good purposes in all that He does, so we can trust Him as we follow His lead.
