Modern life tends to shun dependency and celebrates independence, but the Bible tells us that God created us to be dependent people. Join us as Pads Dolphin explores how the early church was a dependent community - dependent on God, dependent on each other and dependent on grace.

After Jesus' ascension, his followers lived in a new community, that would go on to become the Church. But what was this community like? Over the coming weeks we will be looking at different aspects of this community, starting this week by foussing on the witness of this community.

When some of Jesus' followers went to see his tomb after he died they found it empty. Join us for this special Easter baptism service where Pads Dolphin leads us through Peter's question, 'What has happened?'

When Jesus entered Jersualem on a donkey's colt, he was making a bold claim to be God's Messiah - the one all Israel had been waiting for. But what kind of Messiah was he going to be and how would he save us? Join us as Pads Dolphin takes us back to that first Palm Sunday.

God is in the business of restoring his creation. Consequently, he is always doing something new. But doing something new inevitably means leaving things behind. Join us as Pads leads us to consider what things we might need to leave behind, or areas of our lives where we need restoring so that we can join in with the new things God has planned for us.

In this final part of our Bible Overview series, Anthony Wisdom shows us that the story of the Bible doesn't end at the cross and leads us to think about how we can take what we've learnt and apply it to our daily lives as followers of Jesus.

Jesus' parable of the prodigal son paints a picture of a wayward younger brother, who squandors the family wealth but is accepted back into the family by HIs father. Most of us are familiar with that part, but what about the elder brother, who is less happy to see his brother's return? What challenge or message is there for us from the elder sibling's reaction? Join as as Pads Dolphin takes us through the hope and challenges that this passage presents.

God calls us to seek Him while He can be found. Time is limited and our complacency poses a threat. Join us as Pads Dolphin shows us how God has opened himself up to us and invites us to come and find Him while we still have the time to do so.

John the Baptist recognised Jesus and showed him to his disciples. Those disciples went on to follow Jesus and lead others to follow Him too. How did John recognise Jesus? And what can we learn from this response of the first discples?

Continuing our overview of the Bible, we reach the Gospels and the arrival of Jesus into the world. But who was this Jesus? The Jews were expecting a Messiah, longing for a Christ - was Jesus the Christ they were looking for? Who did he say he was and who do people think he was today?
