Our Sunday special for Father's Day was on the 18th June.

Listen as we explore what the idea of 'Father' looks like in our world today.

Job is a man who suffers intensely and deeply. The Cross shows that at the heart of history there is undeserved suffering that makes possible undeserved blessing; that because a righteous man suffered, unrighteous people like us can experience mercy and grace. This is the wisdom of the Cross (1 Cor.1:18-2:5). Job foreshadows this great truth.

Jesus is our Joseph -  the one who suffered at the hands of his brothers, faced adversity with integrity and utter faithfulness to God (even through suffering and death) and who saved more than a pagan nation from starvation - Jesus is the bread of life! Joseph went to the depths of prison and pain to emerge (be resurrected) to a position of power to save the lives of many - Jesus did it on a whole other scale!

If the Church is an outpost of Gods Kingdom & described as the body of Christ; then our understanding & expression of hospitality must flow from & be grounded in our understanding of who God is, what He is like; most clearly seen in Jesus.

Elijah comes at a time when things have got really bad in the nation of Israel. He boldly speaks up and steps out in the miraculous but also succumbs to fear, runs away and wants to end his life. His life is a real mix of public and private, prophetic and miraculous, courage and anxiety.
