Ali speaks on Paul being led in different ways as he commenced his 2nd missionary journey with Silas. We see that the opportunity arose in his everyday, in the interruptions and in suffering.

Ali considers how, in Acts 15, the church dealt with difference of opinion with grace and truth. 

Tash Proctor (from 24/7 prayer) shares with us about the importance of prayer and her personal experience of how God has drawn her into a deeper intimacy and expectancy with God

On Pentecost Sunday Stephen Johnston encourages us to read Acts 2 as if it was the first time we had read it, so that we would be taken again by the amazing signs and wonders that occurred during and after Pentecost.

He, along with two colleagues, report back on their experience of the Holy Spirit at work in the Encounter School of Ministry at Causeway Coast Vineyard. We are encouraged to realise that God working through us is not about ability, instead, it is about our availability.

Ali considers what the Spirit-led life looks like as we study Paul’s first missionary journey as recorded in Acts 14. We see that Paul endured suffering despite being faithful. God rescued Paul in different ways at different times. In living a Spirit-led life Paul learned dependence and lived with purpose.

The staff from the Edge take our service. It is fantastic and inspiring to hear about the various activities that go on during the week as they seek to empower young people and support the wider community motivated by the love of Christ!

David Gilkinson helps us see how the church in Antioch first prayed and fasted before sending on Barnabus and Saul off on the first missionary journey (Acts 13).

Ali helps us start a new series called “to the ends of the Earth” covering the second half of the book of Acts. We look at Acts 12 from the perspective of ‘problems, prayer, peace and release’ - and are reminded that freedom is something that Jesus does and that we have the choice to watch on while God moves or accept His offer to participate with Him in bringing His Kingdom to earth.

Ali brings the Spirit-filled life series to a close by reminding us that God invites us to more; to deeper intimacy and greater power to be His witnesses. We have seen that the Spirit-filled life starts with surrender and that spiritual gifts without Agape love amount to nothing. As a church, we need to desire, discover and release gifting so that we can be equipped to participate in what God is doing here in the community where we live.

Paul Reid explores the experience of the disciples recorded in the book of Acts, starting when the Holy Spirit came at Pentecost. We see when the Holy Spirit was ‘poured out’ on believers, it was to all, without distinction. Further examination in the book of Acts shows that generally the outpouring was sudden (something happened), it was supernatural and it followed conversion.
