Kindness in our actions, goodness in our hearts. A discussion panel made up of our young adults discussing the fruits of the Spirit.

A Gospel-shaped family becomes a powerful witness to the world: humble, peace-making, servant-hearted, and committed to good works.

We all want to live in a kinder world where people can thrive. How can we be people who are driven not by fear, not by selfishness, but with an eye on a better world, making a difference in our everyday lives? Paul’s directions to Titus can help us find our bearings.

The Gospel thrives when older and younger believers share life, wisdom, and godliness. Titus 2 gives the most explicit biblical blueprint for intentional intergenerational mentoring in the church.

The church displays the gospel when its leaders model maturity and spiritual integrity. Paul begins Titus by stressing the importance of godly elders for the sake of the entire household of faith.

In a city divided by class, ethnicity, and culture, the gospel unites Jews, Gentiles, rich, poor, slaves, and free into one family.

Unlike Roman culture—which prized personal freedom and privilege—Christians willingly limit their freedoms for the sake of one another.

The church must not mirror Rome’s contempt for the weak; instead, it must be a community of honour and welcome.

Rome was known for indulgence, immorality, and spectacle; the church is to live as people awake to eternity.

While Rome glorified political agitation and uprisings were common, Christians display trust in God by honouring governing authorities appropriately.

Rome glorified vengeance; we are called to glorify sacrificial love.

In Rome, status was everything. In Christ’s body, humility and mutual dependence define greatness.

In the heart of the Roman Empire—where power, honour, social climbing, and vengeance defined the culture—Paul calls the church to display a radically different society shaped by mercy, humility, sacrifice, and love. The church becomes an alternative society only when shaped by God’s mercy rather than Rome’s patterns.

The Bible is clear – life will not continue as it is forever. There will be a moment when Jesus will return, when all people realise that he has always been the King, and when we will all be judged. That truth is a comfort and a challenge.

God has not left us to try and live this work in our own strength. He fills his children with his Spirit. It changes everything.

Creeds were never designed to be just for the brainy types, or those happy to ‘go deeper’. They were and are designed to help us live differently. The Creed concludes with the life of the church — forgiven, resurrected, and awaiting glory. It’s about how we live together in this life while we wait for the next life to come.

The heart of our faith is a simple phrase that changes everything: Jesus is Lord

The Bible consistently reminds us that God the Creator is the one who calls us his children.

We will be looking at a list of beliefs that the Church agreed 1700 years ago. Can these statements help us today? Why is it important that we start with ‘We Believe’ rather than ‘I feel’?

Jesus is alive!

Do you remember seeing the Christian wristbands stamped with WWJD: What Would Jesus Do. I think some people felt the answer would have been: NOT THAT. But what if doing what Jesus did is really positive? What might that look like?
