Jason brings us back to our series in Mark, showing Jesus’ power over all things, and the questions that caused for those around about who he really was. Will we look with grace upon people as they can be, or consign them in condemnation to what they have been? Will we humble ourselves to hear from God through whatever means He chooses to use?

Simon begins our new series, looking at a well rounded sense of mission, involving our Words, Works, and Wonders.

He goes on to show how Jesus used his words powerfully, sent his disciples to speak of him, and then the Holy Spirit empowered the early church to proclaim his good news with boldness.

Our prayer is that you would make known the mystery and glory of the gospel with your words - let us know how you get on!

Simon concludes our series — Words, Works, and Wonders: Living on Mission Today — by drawing our attention to the supernatural wonders which God brings about.

He traces this back through all the Bible, on into church history, and up to the present time. He urges us not to fall into common traps when dealing with the miraculous, and to see how God wants us to work with him to see these things come about, for God's glory.

Simon reminds us, to close, how these dimensions of mission are intended to work together, to build a rich picture of God's goodness and give a full understanding of his nature.

We hope this talk, and series, spurs you to find out more about Jesus or to help others find out more about him. Let us know how you get on, or if we can be any help.

Simon continues our series — Words, Works, and Wonders: Living on Mission Today — by focussing on works of service, acts of compassion, and a lifestyle of love.

He shows how Jesus is the ultimate servant, the early church instinctively met needs, and the church through history has prioritised loving service. And then inspires us to think how we can show the gospel today, through hospitality, generosity, and service.

We hope this inspires you to a life of gospel works, added to your words. Let us know if we can support you in that in any way.

Simon, our Vicar, reminds us of our vision, the ways we've seen it advance in the last months, and the ways we will continue to pursue it in the months ahead.

There's a part for you in this. How could you step more fully into that, even today?

If we can help you with that question, or anything else, please get in touch.

Jason speaks about following what the Holy Spirit is doing, even when that's unexpected or unpredicted. From our passage he shows us two groups who didn't see what the Holy Spirit was doing, with two different motives and outcomes.

Jason goes on to talk about the 'unforgiveable sin' and 'coming back to repentance' from Hebrews 6, showing that it is something impossible for a sincere believer in Jesus. We hope that this, in particular, brings you relief and encouragement, as you seek to follow Jesus with all yoru heart.

Simon, our Vicar, takes us through Mark 3 verses 13-19, showing how Jesus calls the disciples to be with him, appoints them to do what he did, and sends them to show that to others. He says that's the pattern Jesus still uses with us today, and that without any one of those three dimensions, we would have a deficient understanding of God and his mission.

Which of these areas do you need to grow in, to become a well rounded and fully equipped follower of Jesus?

We hope this encourages you, and builds you up in faith in Jesus. We'd love to hear your feedback, and if we can bless you in any way.

Mike Chesterton talks from all over the Bible about God's mission for his people, and the place within that for blessing the most vulnerable.

He particularly calls us to think about the 38,000 children and young people who will enter the care system in the UK this year, and whether we could show them that we care by praying, considering opening our homes to them in fostering, adoption, and supported lodgings, and giving.

Simon challenges us to seek God to bring solutions in our life, and then to work with him to bring solutions to the world in need.

He draws this from Mark 3 verses 7-12, where Jesus withdraws to be alone with his Father, but then is sought out by people who need healing, and heralded by impure spirits who recognise who He really is.

Where do you need to ask for the light of Jesus to shine on you? What solutions does he want to use you to bring to the world, for his glory?
