We were absolutely delighted to have Zoe Warren join us from the Christian charity IJM to share about how we can play our part in setting people free today. 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. Today 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. Today, we’re 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? As we drew together our lent series on Listening to God, we felt it important to ask this key question... What kind of God are we listening to? We were absolutely delighted to have our friend Paul Wakely join us. Paul shared on the father-heart of God and God's ongoing invitation to us to come home to Him. No matter how far gone we may feel, God longs to be in relationship with us. The homecoming party that awaits is way beyond what any of us could ever deserve.
