How often do you pray? Let’s be honest, for most of us our answer would be ‘not enough’.

Many of us want things to get better in our lives but struggle to make it happen. We can hear great messages and receive good advice but often do nothing about it.

In this week’s message, Ps Matt talks about the need for repentance.

We all want good things overflowing in our lives, but most of us have seasons that are difficult and challenging. We face the gap of ‘where we are’ and ‘where we want to be’.

The story of Christmas is a beautiful one full of adventure, surprise, miracles and joy... right? Well yes, but it’s easy to reflect on the Christmas story and miss the craziness of it. It’s a beautiful, powerful story, but also a messy story. In this week’s message, Ps Matt takes time to focus on how God brings beauty out of mess.

Ever heard ‘you can choose your friends but not your family’. This might be true for people, but not for God. In the most amazing way imaginable, God chose people to be part of his family. How did He do that and more importantly, why? The Christmas season is a great reminder of Gods love towards people. Check out this week’s message as Ps Ben explains the significance that is ‘God Family’.

One of the fruits of the Spirit is joy. God’s desire is for us to have joy. We may not always be happy, but in God we can remain full of joy. We shouldn’t confuse happiness and joy. Happiness needs good conditions where joy goes deeper. Would you say you have joy? Are you leaning into the supernatural joy available to you? If you have lost it, don’t worry, you can get it back.
