14th May | Tom continues in our talk series - Kingdom Culture, looking at 'Blessed Are The Meek'. Tom unpacks what it might look like to live with a meek heart, being open to God using and working through us. In doing so, we hear from Jean Belgrove about her experiences in Hong Kong and Nepal and how God led her both to those places and to particular amazing situations in them.

7th May | Reflecting on Luke 17, Tom reflects this Sunday on the question 'How is the kingdom of God within your heart?'. Tom gives a little more space for us to reflect on the spaces where Jesus is moving and where we can surrender our hearts to him again.

30th April | Rich Merrick, who is joining us as Curate for a few months, continues in our talk series - Kingdom Culture: Blessing in Broken Places. Jesus proclaims that 'Blessed are those who mourn', and Rich unpacks what this means both for us as individuals experiencing loss and also how as a community we have our hearts broken in order to comfort others. He also interviews Jess about her experiences of grief and loss and how she is able to see God at work in places of death and bereavement.

23rd April | Our Vicar Tom kicks off our new talk series - Kingdom Culture: Blessing in Broken Places. Diving into Matthew 5 and the 'Beatitudes', we find out that the places we find God most active and at work aren't the places of achievement or false humility, but the places of brokenness and hurting. Tom also interviews Kerry about her story of finding God at the most broken times in her life, and the difference Jesus has made so far.

16th April | This Sunday Flo, who heads up our Fiveways & Hollingdean Foodbank, looks at the story of the disciples walking to Emmaus in Luke 24:13-25 and speaks about how Jesus longs for us to return to him and trust in his ability to transform even the most difficult situations.

9th April | On Easter Sunday, Tom shares a quick thought about what Easter must have felt like for the first disciples and how Easter means we can all have a 'fresh start' to our new life.

7th April | At our Good Friday Reflection service, Tom shared three reflections on what the cross of Jesus means for us today. Through reading John 19, we see the reversal of three themes - Weakness over Power, Love over Hate and Life over Death.

2nd April | To finish our series on Noah, Tom looks at the narrative of the ark and how it shows us about God's plan to bring dead things back to life. As we look towards Easter, Genesis 8 allows us to see that fruit is able to be planted and grown on the other side of difficult times.

26th March | This week we welcome Piers Arthur-Crow, who directs The David House - a charity that explores Christianity through it's Jewish roots and theology and aims to reach Jewish people through sharing God's love for them. Piers continues our series on Noah, reading from Genesis 9:8-17 and exploring what it might mean for God to make a covenantal promise with us and how he wants to use us to accomplish his purposes.

We apologise for the lack of audio quality over the first minute of this talk due to an unforeseen technical problem.

19th March | As Part 2 of our Vision Sunday series, Tom reads from 2 Corinthians 9 and asks us how we can go deeper in our vision, action and blessing to our city. Following on from last week's call to abide in the presence of God in order to bear fruit, Tom explores how we can invest and play our part financially in bearing fruit in Fiveways.
