Welcome to this message by guest speaker, Pastor Dave Scholes. Dave is another Free Methodist pastor and speak to us this week on working through our own strength (vanity) versus beginning all we do with a fear of the Lord.

Pastor Dave brought this message from Psalms 127 and 128 in which we are challenged not to work in vanity but in a fear of the Lord - our work can either lead to the "bread of anxious toil" or God-given "fruits of our labour." We were encouraged to reassess our obedience to the Word of God in all we do.

Welcome to this standalone message on breaking free from addiction. In this episode, Pastor Jonny shares how we can be a transformational community for those struggling with substance misuse and explores why we abstain from illicit substances.

We heard that "it is for freedom that we are set free." We have not been given salvation and freedom only to be chained by addictions in our lives. We hope you find this helpful.

Are you struggling with addiction at the moment? Whether substances, alcohol, pornography, food, medication etc., we would love to hear from you, pray for you and offer you any support we can.

Welcome to the final episode in our Finance February series and in this message, Pastor Jonny explores why we need to live with margin in our finances: so that we can live on mission.

Pastor Jonny talked about the 'consumption assumption' - a concept where we assume that all our resources are there for our own benefit. Actually, we are blessed to be a blessing and the resources we are given are to benefit those around us.

We were asked the question: If you were God, would you trust you with His money?

Welcome to the second week in our series, Finance February. In this message, Pastor Jonny speaks about inheritance and tells us that the best inheritance you can leave your children is a knowledge of, and relationship with, Jesus.

Welcome to the first message in our annual February series: Finance February. Did you know that money was one of the top things Jesus spoke about in scriptures? Not because He thinks money is important but because He knows how important we think money is.

In this message, Pastor Jonny takes us through the three key biblical principles for 'Building Wealth.'

1) Earn money, 2) Don't waste money, 3) Build wealth.

Welcome to this week's message from Light and Life! In this message entitled "There Is More," Pastor Jonny Leech reminds us that God can deliver so much more than our wildest expectations and urged us to get out our clay jars because God can fill them and more!

We loved hearing that there is always more with God and being challenged to pray salvation over a specific person God has put on our hearts this year - let's pray for an opportunity to witness, to invite and to pray for someone.

God is good, He is faithful and in Him there is always more! What a way to close out our 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting in celebration.

Welcome to the next message in our January series, 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting. We're so glad you're here!

Welcome to the next message in our January series, 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting. We're so glad you're here!

In this message, we hear from the Free Methodist UK Prayer Leader, Pastor Esther Scholes, who explores what the Bible says about prayer and how we can bring some structure and focus to our prayer life. We were encouraged that, whilst we can't really pray 'incorrectly,' there are models and examples in the Bible which help us to grow and develop through our prayer.

Pastor Esther shares with us her current framework for prayer based around the Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6. We are also encouraged that Christ displaces worry when we pray - what are your worries? What are the truths that you can replace the anxiety/worry with?

Let's live lives saturated in prayer and overflowing in gratitude to our God who loves us and cares for us.

We're looking forward to the next message in this series on fasting.

Welcome to the first message in our January series, beginning our 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting. We're so glad you're here!

In this message, Pastor Jonny explored the 'Why?' of this season we have at the beginning of each year. He shared with us the story of Hannah and Samuel and talked about how Hannah, in her time of desperate need, got close to God, listened to Him and then, when she was granted her hearts desire, she dedicated that back to God.

Pastor Jonny demonstrated that we can use this next three weeks of prayer and fasting to get close to God, to listen to God and dedicate ourselves back to Him.

We were encouraged to journal, take notes, be actively engaged with what God is saying to us. We're looking forward to the next few messages in this series.
