Reflecting God’s character
Like a refiner of silver God is at work purifying us and forming us into the image of Jesus.
Ben has been vicar (lead pastor) of Christ Church since August 2021.

Like a refiner of silver God is at work purifying us and forming us into the image of Jesus.

As the prophet kept watch over the city, looking for what God was doing and saying – can we do the same?

God’s grace to Jonah was patient, and relentless – what does it look like to invite others to discover that grace for themselves?

We don’t have to be wealthy to show hospitality to strangers – and in so doing perhaps meet angels unawares.

What is God saying to us – as a church, as individuals? Shuffle, Antioch, Hospitality… watch to find out more!

Habakkuk saw something wrong with the world, prayed big prayers and ended up in a place of joy. How can we do the same?
Revelation ends as it began, by pointing to Jesus and inviting us to live the life found only in him.

Reading about God’s judgement and victory should both challenge and reassure the church – and spur us on in sharing our faith.

The final cycle of ‘sevens’ takes us back to the start. As things get ever worse in history, still the Lamb wins and the redeemed sing his praise.

This vision challenges us, jolts us into repentance. But it also assures us that victory belongs to the Lamb.

Jesus has all we want, all we need – if only we would turn and open the door to let him in.

Discipleship is not about being right but facing the right way and walking in the right direction: towards Jesus.
