In this last of the series of Frontline Sundays we read from Hebrews 10:19-25. Motivating one another and gathering together was all the more poignant on the Sunday before a second ‘lockdown’ was to begin. Allen Foster reviewed the series reminding us that we are God’s elect, scattered and exiled. We hold hope together with […]
The fourth in the series of Frontline Sundays takes our significance from our identity as God’s children. In Matthew 6:5-14 Jesus teaches his disciples to pray. Whoever we are – however insignificant we feel – we make all the difference in te world because we are on our frontlines as sons and daughters of God […]
In this second of the series Peter & Rosie talk about meeting God wherever we are in the ordinary places of our day today lives. The biblical text is Genesis 28:10-22.

Peter’s challenge is to hear the Bible story with more questions—not just ones that question the facts, more the kind that ask, “How does this relate to me?” “What can I learn from this story today?” “What is God saying to me?” As these bewildered Disciples start home for Emmaus they are deep […]

Here is a taster with Peter’s address from John 20; ‘Recognising You’ by Amy Scott Robinson, Richard Lyall of […]
