Equip
Following Jesus is simple... and a lifelong journey of continued discovery. As a church, we want to equip you for this adventure. We going to set aside some Sunday evenings about 9 times per year where we can go deeper.
Each term, we plan to cover the following areas:
Life and relationship - parenting, money and marriage
Life in the Spirit - Spirit Filled living, healing, prayer, prophecy
Theology and Formation
Teaching will be biblically rooted and Holy Spirit-inspired. Each session will last about an hour, enabling us to go much deeper than would could on a Sunday morning or in a Life Group. Sessions will be recorded and reposted to the website. No need to sign up, just check below for the next session and turn up.
So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. Ephesians 4:11–13 (NIV)
See below for upcoming sessions.
