This is a teaching series on the Apostle Paul’s letter to the Galatian Churches and it’s packed full of the truth of the gospel; the good news.

This week our text is Galatians 2:11-21, focused on Paul challenging Peter about the separation that was taking place between the Jewish and Gentile believers. This wasn’t just a case of being rude or unwelcoming, rather they had fallen out step with the truth of the gospel.

Week two sees us in Galatians 1:10-24, as Paul shares his story about who he was, what God was doing and what God is doing. As he does so, he makes clear that the gospel is not his own good idea, but God’s idea.

This is a teaching series on the Apostle Paul’s letter to the Galatian Churches and it’s packed full of the truth of the gospel; the good news.

As Sam opened our series today we look at the reasons why Paul felt the urgent need to write this letter before spending some time in the opening verses. It doesn’t take Paul long to get to the point of why he’s writing!

We begin the new year with a new series, considering how we can go deeper in our relationship with Jesus, with other believers and with the world around us. We will spend the next 5 weeks looking at the following areas: Live, Love, Look, Listen, Learn.

We’re up to ‘L’ number four as this Sunday we were focusing on ‘LISTEN’. Sam spoke on James 1:19-27, as we consider the importance of listening well and the call to not just be those who listen to the word but be doers of the word too.

We begin the new year with a new series, considering how we can go deeper in our relationship with Jesus, with other believers and with the world around us. We will spend the next 5 weeks looking at the following areas: Live, Love, Look, Listen, Learn.

First up is ‘Live’ as Sam opens up Paul’s letter to the Philippians at chapter one where we find the following words of Paul; ‘For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.’

How do we handle the parts of the Bible where we’re presented with what looks like a list of names? It can be tempting to skip over them but as we explored Romans 16 this morning we see just how rich these verses are.

In our current sermon series we are going to be exploring Jesus’ words to His disciples in John 15:1-17. Over the next 4 weeks we will teach into what Jesus said about abiding, fruitfulness, prayer, obedience and love.

This morning we looked at Jesus’ words in John 15:1-6 about fruitfulness and considered the following:
What does it mean for Jesus followers to bear fruit?
How does this fruit come about?
What role do the vine and the vinedresser play in fruitfulness?

In our current sermon series we are going to be exploring Jesus’ words to His disciples in John 15:1-17. Over the next 4 weeks we will teach into what Jesus said about abiding, fruitfulness, prayer, obedience and love.

Sam kicked off our series with an introduction, explaining the thinking and purpose behind this series. He then spoke on what it meant for Jesus to call Himself the true vine.
