If the image of the invisible God lives in us, if nothing can be added to or taken away away from what Jesus has done for us, if nothing can separate us from the love of God... what's our part in all of this? What does it look like to live out life in the light of those beautiful truths? Have a listen to find out more...

As we continue the series in Colossians Claire helps us to think through how the freedom we have in Christ should lead us to full devotion to him- clinging to Jesus, keeping in the light and staying devoted to him.

Fullness in Jesus is meant to lead to Freedom in him- but that often seems like a long way off! Join Graham as he takes us on a journey towards how we can experience freedom rooted in Christ in our minds and from the enemies schemes.

Join Sally and Adrian as the take us through one of the most beautiful descriptions about Jesus in the New Testament. It really is ALL about Jesus!

We're starting a new series for a new year! Over the next week join St Matts as we journey through the book of Colossians - a letter written to the freshling church at Colossae praising God for the seed of the Gospel that has been growing and bearing fruit and encouraging them to go deeper that as they understand the fullness of God in Jesus they might also be brought to fullness in Jesus. In todays passage Paul prays that they (and we!) would bear fruit, grow in knowing God, be strengthen by the spirit and give thanks — what a great way to start a new year!

Join Graham as he helps us to understand the meaning of advent — Engaging with the gospel and then learning how to live that out in the same through embracing repentance, eating (belief), expecting (being immersed!), and being empowered (by Holy Spirit).

As we round off this "Back to Basics" series we take a slight change of tack as we explore the big topic of climate change. Join Dan who has a background in climate science as he goes through both the serious implications of climate change from a scientific point of view as well as the reason Christians should be leading the way in caring for the world that God has gifted us with.
