7th July 2024:
Faith Works: Judging or Humility

James 2:14–26
Matthew 17: 14-21

Faith Works: Words and Action
James 1: 19-27
Matthew 23: 23-28
Revd John introduces our new sermon series, looking at the lessons from the letter of James. How do we make sure that our words and actions demonstrate our faith? What does James tell us about living out our faith with integrity?

Journeys of Faith: Woman at the well
John 4: 7-30
How did Jesus turn a woman's journey from despair and sorrow to hope and faith? Revd Abby thinks about the living water that Jesus offered her and offers all of us - where do we need his everlasting love and gentle transformation?

Journeys of Faith: Nehemiah
Nehemiah 2: 1-18
Acts 15: 12-18

Acts 2: 1-21

Journeys of Faith: Jonah
Jonah 2 and 3
Jonah discovered that you can't run away from God when he has a plan for you. Revd Abby asks what the story of his journeys says about second chances - the ones we get from God and the ones, like Jonah, we are meant to offer to others.
