In Part 1 we looked at the Holy’s Spirit’s work of Sanctification in our lives. In Part 2, we consider how the Holy Spirit uses the Word of God to show us who God has made us to be, and what aspects of our personalities are influenced by sin. We also look at what it means for us to be transformed from one degree of glory to another through a growing REVELATION of Jesus (2 Co 3:18), by REFLECTING His image, and REFRACTING His glory through our lives. The key to surrendering to the sanctifying work of the Spirit is VALIDATION and VULNERABILITY – drawing our value and worth from Him, and being willing to let the Holy Spirit strip away sin’s influence on our personalities. What remains is the true person, created and designed by God to individually refract His glorious light – a unique and precious Living Stone!

This is Us! Pt.4 - The Story of Our Church
August 13, 2023 • David Lyon
In the latest instalment of our THIS IS US series, we take a look at the history of our church over the years. We highlight important moments and events along the way that have shaped our vision and values, helped us establish our foundations, and taken us from two small house groups to a thriving apostolic base and family of churches in the UK and overseas. In it all we honour God for His goodness and faithfulness to everyone who’s been part of our story.
The Cornerstone
August 6, 2023 • Benj Lyon • Ephesians 2:19–22
Towards the end of Ephesians 2 we read some familiar verses that describe Jesus as the cornerstone. In this message we unpack what this means and go through verses 19-22 phrase-by-phrase. We see how Jesus the Cornerstone is placed at the very centre of both the church and our lives individually, providing a strong and stable foundation that everything else can line up to.
