Covenant, Priesthood & Resurrection: Part 3 – The Resurrection

Sunday 9th April 2023 | On Easter Sunday, Dr Harvey Kwiyani brings us the third and final part in his series – the resurrection. Building on the previous two weeks’ themes of covenant and priesthood, he explains how Jesus’ resurrection in Luke 24 completes the holy narrative. In being resurrected, Jesus declares his authority over death, the new covenant, and us as his people.

Covenant, Priesthood & Resurrection: Part 2 – The Great High Priest

Sunday 2nd April 2023 | Dr Harvey Kwiyani continues his 3-part series with the second instalment, focusing on priesthood. Together we explore Hebrews 8, which outlines Jesus as the new high priest, permanently fulfilling the traditional role carried out by those in the tabernacle during the Old Testament. Harvey also explains how this overturns the traditional rules of the old covenant, since Jesus was not born of the tribe of Levi. He highlights how Jesus likewise plays the part of the animals that were sacrificed by the high priests; and how becoming a follower of Jesus also makes us priests in our own right, since it is our duty to act as representatives of the kingdom of heaven.

Covenant, Priesthood & Resurrection: Part 1 – A New Covenant

26th March 2023 | Dr Harvey Kwiyani starts his mini-series on covenant, priesthood and resurrection. This week he explains the concept of a covenant, as laid out in the books of Hebrews and Genesis; comparing the sacrificial role of animals in Abraham’s time and that of Jesus in the New Testament. We then explore the deep meaning and bond within a covenant, and how this should shape both our relationship with God and our approach to living a faithful life.

Abide in Him

Sunday 12th March 2023 | This week we hear from guest preacher Amy Hughes from Trinity Church Nottingham as she takes us through her spiritual journey from childhood to present day, exploring her encounters with the Holy Spirit and His healing power, and the process of making the life-changing decision to reject the lies of the world and place complete trust in Jesus and his plan for each of us. Teaching from John 15, Amy then unpacks the idea of abiding in Jesus, as described in the metaphor of the vine and the branches, and gives us practical steps for how we can do this.

Word. Story. Spirit.—Reading the Bible as a follower of Jesus (Week 3: Spirit)

5th March 2023 | Kath explores how we can be informed by the Spirit when reading the Bible, taking a range of examples from both Old and New Testaments. We look at the idea of scripture being God-breathed, and how it can be used as a tool for training us to walk the righteous path, as well as discerning God’s will for our lives and decisions. To finish, we go through the traditional practice of Lectio Divina (that is, divine reading) when meditating on a Bible passage – the 5 steps of which are to prepare, read, rest, reflect and respond.

Word. Story. Spirit.—Reading the Bible as a follower of Jesus (Week 2: Story)

Sunday 26th February 2023 | Week 2 of our three-part series on the Bible entitled: Word. Story. Spirit. Reading the Bible as a follower of Jesus. This week Jamie explores the idea of the Bible as Story—Story in the human sense, as a body of intentionally constructed literature; but also story in the divine sense, as the one true story about what life is all about, why we’re here, where we're going and what the meaning and purpose of our lives is. He begins by recapping many of the key insights from last week and then turning to think about three ways we need to read the Bible in light of its essential nature as story: reading it literarily, reading it narratively, and finally reading it subversively.

Word. Story. Spirit. —Reading the Bible as a follower of Jesus (Week 1: Word)

Sunday 19th February 2023 | We begin a new three-part series on the Bible entitled: Word. Story. Spirit. Reading the Bible as a follower of Jesus. Over the next few weeks we will explore the Bible as Word—The Word of God—and in what sense the Bible is authoritative for us still today and what it means for us to sit under it. We will explore the Bible as Story: as a library of writings, of all shapes and sizes and genres, that together tells a single, unified story that leads us to Jesus, and a story that puts into question all the others stories our culture is telling. And we will explore the Bible as Spirit: the Bible as the place where the Spirit wants to encounter us and to speak to us today and every day in a way that shapes us and transforms us and leads us towards loving God and loving our neighbour. This week Jamie explores Jesus' own approach to the Scriptures (Matthew 5:17-21), unpacks some helpful theology for us to understand what exactly the Bible is and the way it can be said to be the Word of God. We think together about the ways in our culture we sometimes approach the Bible unhealthily and look at what Jesus himself says to the Sadduccees and Pharisees who each fall into similar patterns in their own day (Mark 12: 18-27 and John 5:41-46), ending with a time of response and conviction before taking the Lord's Supper together.

Encounter with Jesus

Sunday 12th February 2023 | Rachel Kitchen, from Hope Street Church in Wrexham, comes to preach this week on Jesus’ heart for healing – looking specifically at two individuals in Mark 5; the daughter of Jairus, a synagogue leader, and an unnamed woman who suffered from internal bleeding. We look at how these people experienced the presence of Jesus, and the ways in which he acts to transform their lives, both physically and spiritually. This solidifies and renews our own faith that God both knows and cares for every one of us, is interested in the stories of our lives, and has endless compassion for us all.
