Why Evil Doesn’t Get The Last Word
The world has too many evil regimes. Too many people are oppressed. Too many suffer at the hands of the powerful. How will this be brought to an end by a rider on a white horse?

On Sunday, as we explored; how to live without fear in the middle of global upheavals, why wars and famines don’t necessarily mean Jesus is just about to come back, and why this is good news!
Jesus has promised that he will return, that history will not finish with a collapse into catastrophe, but in a song of justice and joy. How does this help us live?
We have a number of doctors, nurses and health workers along with counsellors who are part of our congregation. We listened to the ways they understand the interplay between health, wholeness, medicine, counselling, healing and miracles.
We know that being in healthy communities brings us health. What practices build these communities? How can we stop churches becoming unhealthy?
Jesus spent a lot of time responding to sick people. Join us on Sunday, as we explore why healing was so important to his ministry, who he healed and what was understood by those who saw it and what it reveals about Jesus.
We know Jesus said he would build the church – but how does that happen? Can we just sit back and chill out? Or do we have to work hard for him? Or is there another way of seeing how our small, non-anxious decisions can be used by him in his work. We think so!

None of us have enough time to do all that we want to do. We feel hassled, rushed, time-poor. It can lead us being impatient with ourselves, each other and even God. The birth of a Saviour is a call to slow down, to see more and an invitation to be patient.
Christmas scenes can look so nice. Pretty, even. It’s easy for it all to be sentimental. But births are always messy. And being born in a manger doesn’t help. Being born in a politically fraught time makes it worse. So what does God do? He steps into our mess, embraces it, challenges it and offers alternative ways to do life.
