We look at Jesus' continued teaching in Mark 7 about what we do on the 'outside' vs what is going on within. We can bring the mess in our hearts to Jesus, as He is the only One who can truly make our hearts clean.

We look at Jesus' challenge to consider whether our traditions are drawing us closer to Him, or whether we are being unnecessarily bound by man-made regulations.

Vaughan leads us to reflect on the nature of our Heavenly Father - the One who enjoys being with us and in us, and always has time for us.

We explore how Jesus walks with us, draws us close and reveals who He is through the communion meal.

We reflect on the power of our praise - even when we don't feel like it! - and it how impacts on us, on others and on the world.

We consider what our starting points are when addressing issues in our lives: do we focus on us and our ability to "fix it", or on God and our identity as His child?

Andrew helps us reflect on the Parable of the Sower, and we ask: what does it mean to have or be good soil?

We look at the possibility of daring to declare the goodness of God this year, even in times when things don't seem so good.

On our last Sunday gathering before Christmas, Brent leads us to reflect on the reality of God entering into our time and space as Jesus, Immanuel.

The video we watched during this talk is the same that we watched at our first gathering of 2018: Korean pottery master Lee Hyuang Gu, available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/dDreqXD4MoI (The track that accompanied our viewing of the video was 'Beautiful Things' by Gungor).

We look at the miracle of Jesus walking on water. What does this amazing moment tell us about who God is?
