The Revd Ian Wallis takes us to the mountain-top perspective of Jesus’ Transformation, the fulcrum moment in Jesus’ ministry. It enables us also to see God in our own lives.

Our deacon, Boyd Morgan, is going forward to ordination training. We said goodbye to him and James today, and Boyd preached his final sermon before leaving for Mirfield College. In the face of the impotence that we feel as ordinary citizens, he asks, what can we do?

‘ Our Father…’. Every prayer is implicitly a theology. Ian Wallis explores the theology behind the opening of the Lord’s Prayer. which invites us to know God as Divine Householder, whose family is all who relate to Him as dwelling in His house.

At this Sunday service, we welcome Annabelle O’Neill in baptism into the Christian community. Michael Bayley takes the Rublev Ikon as a visual cue to focus on the hospitality that links today’s two Bible readings.

Taking her cue from 'Today was a Difficult Day', a passage from Winnie the Pooh by A.A. Milne, Shan Rush invites us to consider our vocations and ministry.

‘The most radical human experiment ever conceived – eeklèsia, church’. Writing to the young church at Galatia, barely twenty years after Jesus’ death, Paul wanted them to understand that we are all children of God through grace. As Ian Wallis explains, this is the only identity that counts in the kingdom of God, and it is one that is lived out in our relations with God and with one another.

Pentecost is the Christian festival celebrating the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the disciples. Jonathan Williamson takes us to the 'descent of peace' that follows in Gospel-writer John's account of Jesus' reply to doubting Philip.

Anne Padget reflects on the Gospel-writer John's account of Jesus' passionate advocacy to God on behalf of his disciples, the world, and us, and what it means.

Today, the sixth Sunday after Easter, we celebrate also the baptism of Sylvia Burnett-Stuart into the church. Michael Bayley examines the description of Paul’s arrival in Philippi. It reveals an extraordinary confidence and joy in the Christian message….and we witness to its continuing wellspring in this act of baptism.

'A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another'(John 13, 31-5). Shan Rush urges us to put that command into action in the context of Dementia Action Week, and what it implies for us all.
