Our theme for this term is ‘inTenT’. We want to encourage you to be intentional as you enter 2023. You may have made resolutions at the start of this year or taken time to reflect on what this year will bring. As a community, we want to be intentional. So our Sunday teaching will follow the theme of inTenT.
In the Bible, tents are a picture of God's presence as He leads people through the wilderness. We're not meant to stay in the same place. We are to be on an adventure with Him.
As followers of Jesus, sometimes we can get exhausted. There's so much going on in the world that seems counter to what we believe. Life is difficult, but God is still the same yesterday, today, and forever. He is still good, He is still in charge, He still has a plan, and He wants us to join in.
Now is not the time to retreat into a corner and wait until the outlook is brighter. Now is the time to press into the presence of God and walk in His purposes for our lives.
"Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes." Isaiah 54:2
Come and join us on Sundays at Emmanuel's Yard at 10:30, or catch up online. This year, let our intent be to pursue the presence of Jesus and the Father's purpose in the world, empowered by the presence of the Holy Spirit.
