    15. Sharing What We Love

    A day at Silverstone with our foster son turned into something much more meaningful than cars, racing, and tyre smoke. As I watched him experience something I love for the first time, I was reminded that some of life’s greatest joys aren’t found in the things we enjoy, but in sharing them with people we love. This week’s Thought for the Week explores relationship, foster care, adoption, and what a day at Silverstone taught me about the heart of God. Could it be that beneath all of Jesus’ invitations is a Father who simply wants to share life with His children? Whether you’re exploring faith or have been following Jesus for years, I hope this week’s reflection encourages you.

    14. How Do You Measure a Good Day?

    This week’s Thought for the Week was written late on a Sunday evening after a day that felt full from beginning to end. Two church talks, a long-overdue garage clear-out, a car repair that should have taken thirty minutes but somehow took four hours, and a growing sense that despite being busy all day, there was still far more left to do. It got me thinking about how often we measure our days by what didn’t get finished rather than what did, and whether that’s really the way God sees things. Looking at the life of Jesus, who somehow managed to live with purpose and peace despite constant demands on His time, this week’s reflection explores busyness, faithfulness, unfinished jobs, and the question many of us wrestle with: How do you measure a good day? Whether you’re juggling work, family, church, caring responsibilities, or simply feeling like the list never quite ends, I hope this week’s Thought for the Week encourages you.

    13. What It Means To Be a Godparent

    This week Grace and I became godparents again, but the question that really stayed with me didn’t come from the church service, it came from our six-year-old foster child on the way home: “What actually is a godparent?” This week’s Thought for the Week from Buckingham Vineyard Church explores what being a godparent really means, why we dedicate children rather than baptise babies, and why helping shape the faith and identity of the next generation might be one of the most important callings we ever carry. Whether you’re a parent, godparent, exploring faith, or simply curious about church here in Buckingham, you’re really welcome.

    12. Christian Values... or Kingdom Values?

    This week’s Thought for the Week from Buckingham Vineyard Church reflects on the recent UK local elections, the growing conversation around “Christian values,” and what it really means to live as Kingdom people in a divided world. Looking at the teachings of Jesus, Deuteronomy 10:19, and the challenge to love the outsider, we ask a bigger question: are we building around culture, comfort, and politics… or around the Kingdom of God? Whether you’re exploring faith, part of church, or simply asking deeper questions about the world around us here in Buckingham, this short weekly reflection is for you. Buckingham Vineyard is a new Christian community gathering in Buckingham, passionate about loving God, serving people, and making a lasting impact locally—with Sunday gatherings launching this Autumn.

    11. Still Carrying It?

    This week’s Thought for the Week from Buckingham Vineyard Church explores guilt, regret, and the moments in life we keep replaying long after everyone else has moved on. Through a personal story, the restoration of Peter, and the grace of Jesus, we explore how freedom begins when we recognise it, lift it to God, and learn to move forward.

    10. You Are More Than Your Results

    As GCSE and A Level exams begin, this week’s Thought for the Week explores the pressure many young people feel — and why the value God places on us is far greater than any result could ever show.

    9. Where Justice Really Begins

    We all sense that the world isn’t quite as it should be. But where does change actually start? This week we explore compassion — the kind that moves us, not just emotionally, but into action. Because sometimes, even the smallest response can begin to make things right.

    8. You Don't Have To Live This Fast

    Life has a way of speeding up again. Schedules fill, routines return, and before we know it, we’re rushing. This week’s thought is a simple invitation to slow down, be present, and live at a different pace — even when everything else is moving quickly.
