A Meal With Jesus
It has been said that when you read Luke’s gospel that Jesus is either going to a meal, at a meal or coming from a meal. Meals dominate Luke’s Gospel. Why? Because meals help us understand what Jesus is all about – welcome, community, grace, mission and friendship. Maybe most strikingly Jesus’s meals reveal who […]
Seminar – Going Deeper: Exodus – 27 May
In scripture, the term “covenant” is a vitally important one. It refers to the ways in which God relates to his people; his promises, commands, gifts, and grace towards them.

Women’s Seminar – 11 Mar

In the business world people often say ‘the customer is king’ – in other words, what the customer wants is more important than anything else. This has had lots of positive results including better […]
