Hope 

Romans 15:13 tells us that every believer can overflow with Hope, biblical hope is the optimistic Confident expectation that God's good is coming. Hope is not an emotion that is worked up, although it can certainly impact our emotions, nor is it only something that can be enjoyed by certain personality types. 

If you want to leave joylessness, restlessness and hopelessness, you first must change what you believe. Lack of joy, peace, hope isn’t caused by your circumstances, or people. Rather hope is birthed as we repent of the wrong beliefs that hinder our confidence and trust in God. Every area of our lives where we believe truth, we become free. Every area where we believe lies, we live in restriction and limitation.  That means that our spiritual guns need to be facing inwards at our own beliefs rather than projecting the problem on people, circumstance or demons. This is very freeing and liberating because it's a revelation that confronts us with the wonderful truth 'I am not a victim, I am responsible for me, and I get to choose hope'

NOW and TODAY you can have hope.  The moment we believe and trust Him is the moment we get filled with Holy Spirit supernatural hope.The more truth we believe, (we know we are believing when our emotions line up with what we say we believe) the more hope we will enjoy.  

Hope and joy flow together. Hope IS living with joyful expectation. He’s the God of all Hope. Nothing is impossible with God. There is no problem bigger than God. These bones can live, this sea can part. Today is a good day for a miracle, a solution, a break through. Biblcal hope leads to Overflow, and the person with the most hope in any environment has the most Influence 

Go beyond simply waiting for the situation to be changed. Pressing into Him is the ultimate goal, He is the God of all hope.

What should I expect when I visit the church?

You will receive a very warm welcome particularly from our Welcome Team who will be able to answer your questions and direct you to where you need to go.

Sunday is special because it’s the main opportunity in the week for the whole church family to gather, worship God, enjoy his manifest presence together, minister to one-another, receive encouragement and exhortation from God’s word and be refreshed by God’s Spirit and one-another’s friendship and support.

There will be approximately 45 mins of singing with opportunity for church members to pray, prophesy or read a passage from the bible. After the notices there will be a preach, we take time to understand the bible’s message and how this can teach us about God, about ourselves, about the world that we live in and about what authentic Christian lifestyle looks like in practice. At the end of the preach there is always a chance to respond.

Tea, coffee and biscuits are served after the service where there is plenty of time to meet new people and ask more questions.

 

What happens to the kids at church?

As a family church we are thrilled to have people of all ages involved in our Sunday morning meetings. Typically, after worshiping together for 30 minutes or so, the children and young people will leave for their own activities.

We have a fantastic programme for the kids at the Church for ages 0–14. Children stay with their parents at the start of the service as we worship (sing songs!) together for the first part of the morning. Someone will announce when the children need to go to their programme.

For more information about what happens in the children's work please visit the relevant age groups for you under church life.

Is there a dress code?

No! Please just be yourself and come dressed in your 'normal' clothes.

 

Will I have to join in?

Not at all!
You are free to simply observe or participate as much as feels comfortable for you.
