PERSONAL REVELATION OF GOD'S GOODNESS 

God is good isn’t just a theological statement, a revelation of His goodness changes the way we dream with Him, prophesy, evangelise, preach, and make disciples. A testimony about His goodness invites the listener into an encounter with His goodness. A revelation of His goodness causes us to be more belief focussed than conduct focussed. His goodness delivers us from performance and the fear of punishment. (Romans 10:10).

The goodness of God is not a new revelation, but actually believing its implications is. Theories of His goodness don’t work when we find ourselves under pressure. Each believer must have their own revelation of His goodness. We can’t live for long on other peoples conviction and revelation. We need both a revelation of the Fathers heart and a sure foundation that He is good.

The revelation of God's goodness creates an expectation that we are going to taste that He is good everyday, living with the hope that we will taste the goodness of God in the land of the living (Psalm 27). His goodness ignites the confident expectation that He can work everything together for good, that He wastes nothing and uses everything for our maturity.

The expectation we can taste and see now His goodness brings freedom from despair and hopelessness. His goodness creates expectation and anticipation. A good understanding of His nature, that He is 100% good is wonderfully restorative, redemptive and refreshing (Psalm 23). Seeing His goodness is a powerful means of God leading us to change our minds (repent) about how we see God, ourself, others and our circumstances (Romans 2:4).

Planning your Visit

Welcome! Whether you've just moved to the area, or have lived here all your life, we hope our website helps you to find out everything you want to know about our Church.

 

Some key information about the church...

 

Where & when does the church meet?

The church meets every Sunday at 11:00 am for our Sunday Service. There is plenty of free parking around the CCK building. We are walking distance from Plumstead Train station and local buses. It’s good to get to the meeting 15 minutes early to enjoy a fresh cup of coffee before the service starts.

We meet at the church building in the middle of Plumstead

The address is:

46 Lakedale Road

You can see a map on our contact us page.

 

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.
