We’re spending 2023 in the book of Acts. It’s an amazing account of the birth of the church and throughout the text there are amazing details.This Sunday we looked at Stephen. A few weeks ago in Chapter 5 we looked at how the Christian life has significant up and downs, it’s not a story of endless comfort and pleasure, without challenges and difficulty. Stephen’s life encapsulates that, chosen as someone ‘full of the Spirit’ he eventually tragically pays for his faith in Christ, with his life, stoned to death.The Sunday, we were delighted that Rev Gavin Foster is joining us to share about Stephen’s life. Gavin is a vicar on the South coast, was Bishop’s Chaplain in Winchester and currently works for the Diocesan Registry in Salisbury, he also led our time away in the Gower last year. As we discover more together of what God has to say to us today, I wonder how important is your faith in Christ?

This term we will be focusing on and discovering more about the Good News at the heart of the Christian Faith.
Apparently, Robert Louis Stevenson once entered into his diary, as if recording an extraordinary phenomenon, 'I have been to church today, and am not depressed'.
What happened to the good news? The Bible talks about how Jesus came proclaiming the Good News of the Kingdom of God. Christians for over 2000 years have spoken about how Christianity is good news. What is the good news and how can we live it and share it?
As we journey towards Easter this year our morning reflections will focus on our posture this Holy Week. Social Studies observe that over 70% of all our communication is nonverbal and our posture plays a significant part in what we communicate on a day to day basis. Does our posture matter? What is our posture like towards God, each other and the world this Easter? What do we see in the Easter account? What can we discover?

We might look at Jesus in different ways. To some he’s a philosopher, to some he’s a shepherd, to some he’s a moral teacher, to some he’s a kind-hearted fable, to some he’s a miracle-maker, to some he’s a distant memory, to some he means absolutely nothing and to others he’s their King and the very reason they get up every morning. However we see Jesus, is he part of the picture for us this Christmas? Does it matter if and how he features? Are we ready to receive what God might have for us this Christmas?

The first in our series looking at Jesus through the Gospel of Luke.
Our hope is that as we spend our Sunday mornings this year delving into this amazing account of Jesus' life we might come to see Jesus more clearly, love Him more dearly and walk with Him more nearly.
A few helpful facts about the Gospel of Luke... It's one of four accounts of Jesus' life. It's written by Luke, who was a physician, artist and a companion of Paul. Luke is the only author in the Bible who is not of Jewish heritage. The Gospel of Luke is the first of his two books in the Bible and there are many strong links with his second book, Acts. Luke's Gospel was written 20-35 years after Jesus' death to a 'patron' Theophilus and it's implied that it is also to Gentile Christians.
Common themes in Luke's Gospel include... God's Messiah has come to His people That Jesus is the Saviour, including to the marginalised and the Gentiles Forgiveness of sins is through the death and resurrection of Jesus Jesus' ministry is in the power of the Holy Spirit Some of the account of Jesus' life is unique to the book of Luke, i.e the Samaritan and Prodigal stories.
