Stronger Together – God in the mess of circumstances

Two Determined Women and One Good Man working together.

Stronger Together – God in the mess others made

Five overlooked women save a nation. God takes our everyday contributions and creates a new story for everyone.

Stronger Together – God in the mess we made

The pain we cause one another (men to women and women to women) in dysfunctional families, organisations and church, and God’s response.

Stronger Together – Both wounded. Both Healed.

Relationships between men and women can be complicated. The Garden Story in Genesis 3 explains why that is the case. But it doesn’t need to be the final word.

There is a new creation – and we are invited to be part of it – which affects everything, including our relationships with one another.

Stronger Together – Both wounded: What we lost

The loss of relationship, the curse of power between the genders and the victory that Jesus brings (the serpent is crushed). Why it all matters.

Don’t Lose Heart

is happening internationally, and vital when a local church comes face to face with a tragic death. It’s a permanent challenge.

But the apostle Paul went ahead of us on days like these. He helps us keep our eyes fixed on the only true things – the things that are unseen.

And when we cannot tune in

There are times when we just can’t hear, and it may be that we are sure God is silent.

What do we do in these situations?

Tune in to Circumstances

Paul and his companions were stuck because of circumstances and they changed their plans because of that and a vision.

How do we know how to make sense of the circumstances we find ourselves in?

When should we press on regardless of roadblocks and when should we take stock?

Tune in for Others

Prophecy is for the sake of others. It’s a clear reminder that we listen to God because we are part of a community that we care for.

Hearing from God is not a personal luxury – it’s a church necessity.

Tune in to the Unexpected

Angels, visions, unexpected meetings, dramatic turns. If angels only turned up once in the Bible it would be easy to overlook them. But they are everywhere!

How do we make sense of that today in a society that sees itself as far too sophisticated to believe this?
