Woody and Tufty are back from holiday and the Chinwag has returned. Join us as we reflect on what we got up to during the break and what we're looking forward to this term.

In the last of our Lent Devotions Paul and Edrie take us to the burial of Jesus. In John 19:38-41 Christ was buried according to the scriptures, Jesus truly died and was put in the grave. We see that In Jesus death and burial Jesus understands, he identifies with mankind, it was a moment of total humiliation and helplessness, and yet he was buried in anticipation of resurrection.

Vinny and Amy Singh bring this morning's devotion from John 19:28-37  as we see how Jesus speaks on the cross. Particularly as Jesus cries out it is finished, let us never stop contemplating the finished work of Christ, victoriously triumphing over sin and death and Satan.

As we continue through the Passion from John's Gospel, Tom Brewer brings this morning's devotion from John 19:16-27 pointing us to Jesus the king, yet crucified. Reviled by many and yet fulfilling God's purposes to bring salvation to countless guilty sinners. In the midst of anguish and yet a gracious and tender King, How wonderful is Jesus, our king who was crucified!

Susanna brings the next in our series of devotions from John's gospel (19:1-12) this morning as she helps us think about Jesus the king, silent in the face of accusers and mockers, humiliated and vilified and yet without angry words. What a king Jesus is!

Tune in to the penultimate podcast before the Easter break. Join us for reflections on prayer, brownies, and the frustrations caused by a local grass strimmer.

Richard and Celia Ford bring this morning's Lent devotion from John 18:15-27, as we continue through John's account of the passion, we reach Peter's denial. Like Peter so often we so often fail, and yet graciously we  see Jesus redemption for Peter and all other failures like him.

As we continue in John's Gospel in the lead up to Easter, Neil and Andrea bring this morning's devotion from John 18:1-14. They help us reflect on the events of Jesus betrayal and arrest, about how even in these events that seem so shocking, that he was totally in control. It becomes clear to us that Jesus is absolutely committed to his Father's will in saving a people for his own.

As we continue in John's Gospel in the lead up to Easter, Jess Graham brings today's devotion from John 12:1-8. Here we see Mary's adoration and worship of Jesus just a few short days before he went to the cross. Mary saw and knew Jesus worth, we see so much more! How can we respond to what Jesus has done?

This morning Annabelle brings us our devotion from John 1:29, helping us think about just who Jesus is. In the last 7 podcasts leading up to Easter we will be running through the events of the Passion from John's Gospel, this morning we look at the first clear indication in John of the coming atoning work of Jesus.
