B&A Church Podcast B&A Church

This Sunday our reading was from 1 Thessalonians 3:6-13. Denise talked about the battles and blessings that come when we say yes to Jesus, telling stories of her own transformative experiences of sharing her faith with her family and challenging us that God is often doing so much more than we can immediately see.

This Sunday Paul spoke from 1 Thessalonians 2:17 - 3:5 about living counter culturally. Through historical context from the early Thessalonian church and stories from his time in Burundi during the Rwandan genocide, we see just what community meant for the church then and why we still need it now.

Who do you live to please? This Sunday Wayne talked about how we can live a life that communicates the real faith that we looked at a couple of weeks ago. The reading was from 1 Thessalonians 2: 1-16.

This Sunday we welcomed James Aladiran, founder of Prayer Storm, to the Gathering at B&A. James spoke about receiving Jesus every day and how we can live under His governance as temples of His glory.

This week something went wrong when we recorded the talk so Wayne has recorded a podcast version for us (after he tore up his notes!). This is the first in our new series looking at Paul’s letters to the Thessalonians. Wayne talks us through chapter 1 of 1 Thessalonians and how real faith is really seen, it comes from real experience and it has to be really shared.

This Sunday, Paul landed our series on Bringing Bristol to Jesus by taking us on a walk along the road to Emmaus and encouraging us to make time to encounter Jesus and help our friends to do the same.
