Pastor Daniel from 24-7 Prayer Peru spoke to us (translation by Andy Taylor from 24-7 prayer Peru & Hope Church) from John 11, the story of Lazarus. A word God gave him in September 2025.

Pastor Daniel looks at how the two sisters, Mary and Martha responded to Jesus' arrival - Martha went to Jesus and Mary stayed at home.

We are encouraged when hard things happen to stay close to Jesus - Mary sat and listened to Jesus, stay close to your family -don't escape from your family when you need each other. and keep believing in the power of Jesus because when we show faith He shows His power.

Pastor Daniel finished by saying that today 19th October 2025, Hope Church stopped being a name and started being our identity.

John McGinley speaks to us from Acts 19: 1 - 12 when Paul went to Ephesus and instead of following a well-worn strategy, he followed the Holy Spirit direction instead.

Don't try to systemise but create an environment where God can come into. It's about our posture and position.

Our challenges:

• Put Jesus in His rightful place as our Lord
• To be filled with the Holy Spirit
• Healing, we have been set free by Jesus to heal.

Sam concludes our series from the book The God Story looking at Acts 3 when Peter and John heals the lame man at the Beautiful Gate.

We are challenged to not miss moments and pay attention to where God is leading us because when we pay attention to others' stories, we create space for God's story to be written in their lives.

Don't close the book, keep playing our part.

Steve speaks on the penultimate chapter of The God Story from Revelation 5.

In a world that is fighting for our attention on social media, TV and the internet we have a survival guide in the book of Revelation. The seven churches John sent letters to faced the same pressures we face today.

In a world full of lions, follow the Lamb.

Sam continues with our series The God Story looking at The Church.

He shows us from Acts 10 in the story of Peter meeting Cornelius, that church isn’t supposed to look like us but like God. God cares about our heart not our race, position or appearance.

We are challenged to check our heart, choose welcome over comfort, declare Jesus clearly and invest, don’t just inform.

Graham continues with the next chapter of The God Story looking at the Garden of Gethsemane in Matthew 26 verses 36 - 39.

Graham challenges us.... Which way wins? Life is about choices. And the most important choice is the YES to God

Adrian continues with our The God Story series looking at when Jesus started His ministry on earth.

Steve continues after the summer break with The God Story series.

After 400 years of silence from God, the waiting is over with the cry of a baby.

Often we experience periods of waiting, but it's about how we respond.

God wrote Himself into our story so He could write us into His.

Graham speaks from Genesis 26 about building an altar with our full-bodied worship to God. He talks through the seven Hebrews words for praise and leaves us with a challenge:

Are you willing to be the sacrifice of praise with the whole of our being?

Imogen talks about the woman at the well when Jesus met with her intentionally at Jacob's Well and in doing so brings kindness and truth.
