Centre Church Podcast

As Centre Church celebrates 50 years, guest speaker Stuart Keir, Assistant National Director of Assemblies of God Great Britain, brings a timely challenge to consider the legacy we are leaving behind.

Looking beyond what has been built, Stuart invites us to think about what we are giving our lives to, the responsibility we carry to share the message of Jesus, and the part each of us can play in what God is doing across the world. A milestone is not simply an opportunity to look back, but a moment to consider what comes next.

Psalm 23 paints a remarkable picture of a God who prepares a table even in the presence of our enemies. But what does this tell us about His care, and what does it mean for the way we live?

In this message, Ps Paul brings this familiar passage to life through storytelling, exploring the confidence, provision, and belonging we find in God. As the picture unfolds, we’re invited to look beyond the table itself and consider a deeper question: do we truly know our Host?

Psalm 23 is rich with promises of God's care, guidance, and faithfulness. But how we understand this familiar Psalm begins with something deeply personal: knowing the Shepherd Himself.

In this message, Thomas explores the foundation of Psalm 23 and how it shapes our confidence in God's provision, His promises, and the hope of dwelling with Him. We’re reminded that the comfort this Psalm offers flows from knowing the One who leads us.

To close our Missions Month, we were joined by guest speaker Paul Wagstaff to hear about the work of Compassion UK and the lives being transformed through child sponsorship.

Through stories from Compassion’s work, we were given a glimpse of how compassion can make a lasting difference and how we can each play a part in bringing hope to children around the world.

As part of our Missions Month, we were joined by Kevin from Convoy of Hope for a message exploring what it means to play our part in God’s Kingdom. Through the picture of a Kingdom supply chain, Kevin invites us to consider how God has uniquely created each of us, why comparison can hold us back, and what it looks like to faithfully do what God has entrusted to us.

Ingrid, from Globe Mission, joined us to begin our Missions Month with a timely message about what it means to move beyond simply watching from the sidelines. Drawing from the Great Commission and the story of Elijah, she challenges us to consider how easily we can remain comfortable and silent when God is calling us to step forward.

Through Scripture and personal stories, we’re reminded that obedience requires movement—and that our response can play a part in what God wants to do through His people.

What does it mean to trust God when we cannot see how everything will work out? In the final message of our Nehemiah: Rebuild, Restore, Renew series, Paul explores what it looks like to place our confidence in God and remain faithful to His purposes, even when the outcome is uncertain.

Please note: Due to technical issues, the first 5–7 minutes of this message were not recorded.

What happens when we don't simply hear God's Word, but allow it to shape the way we live? In this message, Wish explores the response of God's people as they encounter Scripture, challenging us to consider whether God's Word is something we hear from a distance or something that genuinely forms and directs our lives.

When the work God has called us to feels difficult, there will always be voices and circumstances that seek to pull us away from it. In this message, Thomas explores Nehemiah 6 and the challenge of continuing faithfully when opposition comes. We’re reminded that courage isn’t the absence of fear, but choosing to trust God and remain faithful when the outcome is not yet in our hands.

What happens when the work we're building comes at the cost of the people around us? In this message, Robin explores a moment in Nehemiah where a great need demands a response from God's people. We’re reminded that what we build matters, but so does how we treat one another along the way.
