Jesus, the Gifts and the Body
26/05/2013 Duração: 30minWe looked at how Paul was trying to bring a corrective to the Corinthian church with its emphasis on spiritual gifts and status. Paul starts with pointing them to Jesus and then showing how the variety of gifts should help the church to strengthen and grow. He then points them towards unity in their diversity.

The role of women in the church
13/05/2013 Duração: 31minWe looked at the role of women in the church from 1 Corinthians 11 and saw that the traditional teaching that has often been portrayed of women being subject to men is not what Paul was saying! Paul actually had a very high opinion of the role of women as leaders in the church. Instead he was trying to ensure that the church got it's priorities right and that it also valued the role of the women leaders of the church

AGM Talk
28/04/2013 Duração: 10minLoosely based on 1 Corinthians 10:1-13. We looked at how God led His people in a time of transition. How he needed to prepare them to live as His people. God is preparing us for a new time. We are being taken out of our comfort zones by God and seeing Him working in what we are doing. We saw how we believe that He is calling us to go Deeper and Wider. Deeper into Him and Wider into our community

Run in such a way as to win the prize
21/04/2013 Duração: 27minPaul is under pressure from the church in Corinth. They are questioning his motive and his authority. Paul responds by asking them to look at how he lives his life and how he focusses on the lost. Paul challenges them to win the prize by keeping training for the race that God has called them to.

Knowledge puffs up, love builds up
14/04/2013 Duração: 25minContinuing our series working through 1 Corinthians we looked at 1 Corinthians 8. The key for Paul here is that we are not part of an individualistic faith but rather we are part of a community and our attitude is vital. Paul points out that people can use knowledge as power and that can break peoples faith rather than build it up.

The gathering Storm
24/03/2013 Duração: 16minWe're looking together at the events that led up to Jesus's death and how they formed a perfect storm - a set of events that multiplied the effect of the conditions that were present.Today Donna looked at the cleansing of the Temple and the strange event of the cursing of the olive tree

The Calm before the storm
17/03/2013 Duração: 27minWe are taking a brief detour from looking at 1 Corinthians to take time to look at the Easter narrative. We have called it “The Perfect Storm”. A perfect storm is an event where a rare combination of events drastically aggravates the situation. This is The perfect storm as these events are a once in history combination of events that forever changed the world.In this passage Jesus is deliberately setting off towards Jerusalem for the final confrontation. There is a sense of anticipation and nervousness amongst his disciples. Although he tells them what is about to happen they don’t understand it and misinterpret his words. So, James and John come and ask and focus on Jesus coming to power and ruling in Israel (even though he has just told them that he is about to be crucified!). The same all too happens with us – we all too often don’t listen to what he is saying to us and the path he is leading us on. We all too often want a comfortable path and one we can take it easy on – rather than the path he calls us t

Hope and the Prophetic Imagination
10/03/2013 Duração: 27minHaving thought lots about how we got to the state we're in (!) how our view of our selves, reality, of sabbath and sanctuary (sacred spaces), have been damaged by a persistant way of thinking that disenchants our imaginations, we explored the foundation-stone of our hope for a better version of all this: our hope in the resurrection body, and the new age to come. In our groups we discussed our hopes for our church, for our world, and how we can, as enchanted individuals inspired by God's holy spirit, become a foretaste of the resurrected life in the communities in which we live.

Sabbath and Sanctuary
10/03/2013 Duração: 21minWe looked more specifically at what has been lost, culturally and imaginatively, by the fact of being under a spell. We thought about how one sociologist and philosopher says that our world is defined by 'Total Work': that the worker mentality, and market values, have infiltrated every part of life, including that part of life - private life - that used to be sacred and set-aside from the demands of work (don't forget that the origin of 'holiday' is 'holy-day'!). This situation has become so endemic that now even rest is not real rest: rest is simply rest from work, in order to do more work, so rest itself is defined by work.
