Introduction to Luke
Luke 1:1-4
Luke himself wrote only four lines of introduction to his Gospel: the longest book in the Bible. What do they tell us, and what else do we need to know before we read on?
Guard Yourselves against Fakes
1 John 5: 12-21
In John's parting words he sums up his whole letter by encouraging hearers to guard themselves from idols. What are idols, and how do we recognise them?
Living from the Love of Jesus
1 John 5:1-12
1 John 5:1-12 reminds us that our love, obedience, and adoption are meant to be held tightly together and are possible because God first loved us.
Whatever You Do
Colossians 3:11-17 and 22-24

KV's Compassion Ministry: Vision and Values
Matthew 14:13-21
Lucy talks about God's heart of compassion and shares the direction we're wanting to take the church’s compassion ministry. This is for the whole church to step into more, so it can be on all of our hearts, to help us keep in line with what’s in God’s heart, so we can more effectively partner with God to share his love and care for our community.
Let us love one another
1 John 4:7-21
John tells us that we, the church, are to love one another like God loves us, because God loved us first. He helps the early church to work out which messengers are from God, and which or not. And he reminds us that we can't love God and hate a brother or sister at the same time.
Testing the Spirits
1 John 4:1-8
Not every message, messenger, or idea we encounter is from God. Caitlin takes us through 3 tests that this passage offers to help us in the discernment process so we can be equipped to identify the wolves in sheep’s clothing - to identify what tells us the truth about God and what is the enemy trying to lead us astray.
We are God's people
1 John 3:16-24
We continue in our 1 John series by looking at what John thinks true love is, why loving the Church is vital and how it's so important for us to listen to Jesus and do what he says. It's all fundamental to us being the people of God, the Church.
