IDENTITY

Personal and cultural transformation is given momentum through us becoming personally fully persuaded about our identity in Christ. To see heart culture established we need to understand that culture shift must be rooted in IDENTITY not PERFORMANCE. Choosing to agree with God and the name He calls us by, believing His assessment is vital to us GROWING UP to be like our Father.

“That in seeing us and hearing us they meet the Father. That’s the great assignment. That’s the only real calling”. (Paul Manuring, LDP 1, Family 2016).

Inscription found on a tombstone of an 11th Century Anglican Bishop in Westminster Abbey.

When I was young and free and my imagination had no limits, I dreamed of changing the World, as I grew older and wiser and realised the world would not change, I shortened my sights and somewhat decided to change only my country, but it too seemed immoveable. As I grew into my twilight years, I settled on changing only my family and those closest to me, but alas they would have none of it. Now as I lay on my death bed, and I suddenly realise that if I’d only changed myself first, then by example perhaps could have changed my family, and from their inspiration and encouragement to me I would of been better able to help my country, and from there I may even have been able to change the world. Source, Bethel TV, Jason Vallotton, Sunday am October 16, 2016.

This bishop realised that in his younger years, he worked and did many things to bring transformation, but only to find out that what he was trying to give away in the beginning, should have started with him. Transformation and Reformation happens inside out. Healthy marriages, families and communities really starts with our heart culture, being loved by God, loving ourselves and then exporting what we have come to know and enjoy.

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
Plumstead
London

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.
