God accepts normal people to be part of his story. He even accepts people we wouldn’t accept ourselves.

According to first century middle eastern culture, Joseph had two options regarding his reaction to Mary’s pregnancy… God showed him another one.

The God option doesn’t always feel good, but it’s always better then the "good option". What could it be for us today? How do we accept God’s input in our decisions? How do we accept the unexpected in our lives?

Christmas is a celebration of how God revealed himself as a small, vulnerable baby in a part of the world that experienced severe injustice. This a journey of hope.

God brings hope to our own situation. God has intervened to make all things new. And we get to be a part of his mission of hope.

Paul was a great encourager to the churches of the first century. We see love and encouragement in the letters he wrote to the first christians. What made him be like that? What can we learn about his life? Let’s look at what encouragement generates and how we can be more intentional about it in our lives.

Nick & Ngamanya speak on becoming a diverse multicultural community. How did the early church resolve cross-cultural challenges? What can we learn from them?

We have been reconciled to God... so how do we be a community committed to the ministry of reconciliation together?

The church exists for Mission... God's Mission. Together we are invited to demonstrate to those around us what life in God's Kingdom looks like. We are empowered to live as 'witnesses' to the world around us (Acts 1:8). This week, Nick describes what does this look like for our local church.

Living in freedom; living in peace; knowing that everything is taken care of... don’t we all want to experience that in our life, in our relationships, and in our community?

In this series we are exploring through some of the letters written to the church in the first century who were exploring what it meant to be kingdom people. Living well together as followers of Jesus in a world that had very different expectations. Our society and culture constantly promotes adversity and hostility. "Them and Us". We see this on social media, in the news, in our papers. But how do we live in harmony with one another?

We live in a culture that promotes self-serving attitudes; a culture that says "You want something? You deserve it"... But Living in God’s Kingdom, living well together as a community, changes our attitudes. We serve others. What if church was a group of servant-hearted people who thrive in serving one another?

In this talk, Nick digs into why we serve and where we can serve within Coventry Vineyard.

Find out about Coventry Vineyard's journey so far, where we currently are, and where we are going. Nick shares some of the highlights and also some next steps as we journey together.

In the Bible, we read about authentic communities. The problems they faced were real. They were not perfect! Not everyone behaves how we might expect them to. We may want a harmonious community and it surprises us when others disappoint us. What can 1 Corinthians 8 teach us about caring for one another, even if it means setting aside things we like or want out of caring love for one another?
