God is faithful, even when we are not. That is great news! Colin delves into the stories of Abram & Sarai, Hosea and Jesus to demonstrate that faithfulness was the first thing God wanted to teach humanity about himself, even when we behave terribly, he remains faithful, even to death!

The truth is, the only thing we can control is ourself... Even God is not in control of everything, but glories in being self-controlled, controlling himself! Guy helps us understand that and inspires us to take that seriously, to imitate God, and grow in our ability to be self-controlled.

Tim Hill
Tim reminds us of the priority of kindness in the heart of God. He says, "Go and learn what this means, I desire lovingkindness rather than sacrifice". He pulls out scripture after scripture to firmly establish kindness as something we all need to grow in and be transformed by... after all, it is the kindness of God that leads to repentance!

God is patient and it is something he considers to be glorious about himself! Colin practically demonstrates patience as he climbs out of a cloudy valley up into the sunlit views of a cloud inversion. Aptly demonstrating one aspect of faithfulness, continuing to do the right thing even when life is not clear. It is truly wonderful to know that God is patient with us, patient with you. Let him fill you with his mighty power so you can demonstrate patience with joy!

The first fruit of fellowshipping with God is love. Those who live in love, live in God. John Lennon was prophetic when he sang, "All you need is love". The apostle John wrote that 'God is love', but if we're honest, we find that hard to truly believe. Or rather, we often make that mean something which seems far from loving. Colin helps us to wrestle with that glorious truth in the hope we might grow in our understanding of it, that we might be transformed into his likeness by it, just as Paul prays in Ephe

The fruit of the Spirit is what God was looking for when he made Creation! This is not a side issue for 'nice' Christians, but the fruit God wanted when humanity was planted on earth. When we realise that the fruit Paul lists reflects the glory of God revealed to Moses in Exodus 33:18-34:7, we learn that we become like God himself when we fellowship with him by the Spirit.

Paul reaches the summit of his gospel describing how Jesus has made a way for us to dwell in holy communion with our God by the Spirit. To know God is eternal life and that comes through Jesus by the Spirit. It's this communion that saves and transforms us! Not only do we experience his love as favoured children, but he names us his heirs, co-heirs with Christ if we share his long-suffering. This is incredibly life-transforming news!

Having defined the good news as the righteousness of God, accessed by faith in the faithfulness of Jesus, Paul goes on to say that throughout God's dealings with humanity (as described in the Jewish scriptures) faith has always unlocked God's favour and the good news. He gives us two examples to make his point, Abraham and David.

Hello and welcome to our church. If you are a new visitor, we have a page for you to get to know us and learn more about planning a visit.

Planning your Visit

A Warm Hello 

The following information is specifically for those planning a visit, so that you know, beforehand, what to expect on a Sunday morning.

Where and When

We meet at the Refresh Centre (details here) for our Sunday Service starting at 10:30am. 

We serve tea, coffee and biscuits from 10.15am, before the service begins. It is a great way to meet people, or simply take time to find your bearings. All refreshments are free.

Accessibility:  There is wheelchair access, disabled toilet and baby-changing facilities. 


Our Service

The meeting begins at 10.30am with a warm welcome from one of our team members. Then follows a time of sung worship, led by our musicians. We typically have 3 to 5 songs lasting approximately 20 minutes. Sometimes a person might pray out loud or read a small passage from the bible. Sometimes people share things that they believe God is saying to the whole church family. This might seem strange the first time you hear it but it’s all part of our connecting with God. We then share news and notices, usually about what’s going on in the life of the church. One of our leaders will then give a sermon that is bible based and that we can apply to our everyday life. Sometimes there is an opportunity to receive prayer at the end of the service.

What about my kids?

All children of any age are welcome to join our Sunday meetings.  Once a month we have 'Refreshers' a Sunday club for primary aged children to have fun games, craft and bible stories.

Getting Connected


Small Groups

While Sundays are a great way to meet new people, it is often in smaller gatherings that you can really get to know someone. Being part of one of our small groups allows you to make new friends, share together and support each other. We have a variety of groups that meet throughout the week, some afternoons and some evenings. Check out Small Groups and see if there’s one that you could join, or we can put you in touch with a small group leader who will be more than happy to invite you along to their group.
