Fish fee
6/7/2025
Rory continues our series in Matthew’s gospel, preaching from Matthew 17:22-26. In this passage we see Jesus’ bizarre miracle of producing a two-drachma coin from the mouth of a fish. We see the reason for this miracle, what it teaches us about Jesus, and what it means for us today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlgU7JsFoto

Praying with Jesus
6/7/2025
Are you still sleeping? Through Matthew 26: 36 - 46, Ben shows us the poignant image of Jesus at the garden of Gethsemane. Christ prays for us: sweating drops of blood, he intercedes for us, beseeching the Father on his knees for our sake. Will you join him - or are you still sleeping? Wake up!

The EastEnders of Genesis
5/31/2025
The family at the centre of Genesis 27:1 - 28:9 has it all: lies, betrayal, feuding, bitterness. They're a mess. Yet today, Tom shows us how this broken disaster of a family does everything it can to hijack God's beautiful promises - and fails. There's no mess to messy for God.

Why we lose the battles we should be winning
5/31/2025
As we continue in our series in Matthew’s gospel, Tom preaches from Matthew 17:14-23. In this passage, we see Jesus driving a demon out of a boy after the disciples try and fail to do so themselves. They come to Jesus with the burning question ‘why couldn’t we drive it out’. We see Jesus’ reply, the results of unbelief, and what it all means for us today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YS43Xka5YUE

Look, listen, follow
5/24/2025
As we continue our series in Matthew’s gospel, Rory preaches from Matthew 17:1-13. In this passage we see Jesus take his three closest followers up a very high mountain, and he is transfigured before them - we see his glory as the Son of God, and what this means for us today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=53hocd9yuvA

Sliding Doors
5/24/2025
Today, Tom shows us one of the most pivotal events in history through Genesis 25: 19-25. In this story, we see the folly of gratifying only the desires of the flesh, the terror of justifying means with ends, and the glory of Christ's inheritance. The event in question: the eating of a bowl of lentil soup.

Christ’s grand design
5/10/2025
As we continue our series in Matthew’s gospel, Rory preaches from Matthew 16:13-20. In this passage we see Jesus talking with his disciples about one of the most important questions we could ever ask, and Rory poses the same question to us - who do you say Jesus is? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O12qysT3dTs

The Lord is There
5/10/2025
In this final stretch of the book of Ezekiel, Tom shows us the exhaustive measurements of the prophesied temple. Only - this temple was never built. So what is it? Could it be that this temple is not a building at all, but an image of something - or someone - far more glorious?

The Last Battle: Gog and Magog
5/3/2025
Behold: Armageddon! The last great conflict between the forces of good and evil...or is it? Today, Pete pulls back the curtain of time through Ezekiel 38, revealing the final battle at the end of days. Who is this fabled Gog? What form will this war take? And how was the battle won before it ever began?

All You Need is a Crumb-y Faith
4/26/2025
"I'm offended!" Here Tom explores the difficult to parse image of Jesus' conversation with the Canaanite woman. Why did he stay silent? How could he call someone a dog? Observe her lack of offence - her embrace of humility. All she needed was a crumb of faith.

God the Restorer
4/26/2025
The exiled bones of Israel had been dried up, the land was desolate, but the time had come to return home. Through Ezekiel 36: 1-24, Pete shows us the wonderful story of God's restorative power. Like the exiles, we too have a land prepared for us. Like the exiles, we can come home.

True Religion
4/19/2025
As we return to our series in Matthew’s gospel, Rory preaches from Matthew 15:1-20. In this passage we see Jesus questioned by the Teachers of the Law, who travel from Jerusalem to ask him why his disciples don’t wash their hands before they eat. However, Jesus turns their question back on them, exposing their rejection of God’s law in favour of their own traditions, and teaching us all what true ‘religion’ is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3R-otTyHvi0

The Greatest Day in History: the Day Death Died
4/19/2025
Christ is risen! In this year's Easter message, taken from Acts 2: 14-39, Pete poses a question: what is the background music of your life? For the world, life is a bleak, sorrowful lament; but for the believer, that lament becomes a joyful celebration of a million hallelujahs. What, do you suppose, makes up the difference?

The Riddle of the Fig Tree
4/12/2025
Tonight in this one-off special, our guest speaker Bart, from Hope Church Tolworth, preaches from Mark 11:12-25. In this passage we see Jesus cursing a fig tree, clearing out the temple courts, and explaining the meaning of all this to his disciples and those who would hear - that something greater than ‘religion’ (trying to gain access to God through our good deeds) is here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQd0R64-mjg

Family Likeness
4/12/2025
This week's special guest speaker, Stuart Davis, takes a look at the familial image of 1 John 2: 3-11. What does it mean to be a part of God's family? What assurances do we have that we truly are adopted sons and daughters? And how might we spot the impostors who talk holy talk - but don't walk a holy walk?

The King of Glory
4/5/2025
Tonight we have guest speaker Nathan Veall from Grace Church Leatherhead preaching from Psalm 24:1-10. In this passage we see the Psalmist focussing solely on God’s character - we see him that He is the Creator God who made and owns everything, that He alone is holy, and that the only appropriate response to this saviour-king is to worship him. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSzHEEHJOP4

The Joy of Thankfulness
4/5/2025
In this special thanksgiving service, Tom shows us the joy of Psalm 100. How often have we coldly turned away from our redeemer and called ourselves "self-made"? How wonderful it is then that we are instead God-made: made intentionally, made to be loved, and made to live in joyful thankfulness with our saviour.

Great Needs, Greatly Provided For
3/29/2025
Our series in the book of Matthew coincides with the baptism service of one of our members, Robin. As we celebrate this wonderful occasion, Tom preaches from Matthew 14:13-36, where we see Jesus feeding over five thousand people, walking out to the disciples on the lake in a storm, Peter going out to Jesus before sinking with Jesus catching him, and Jesus healing the sick. We see the great needs of humanity, and how Jesus meets every one of them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PRHhCwa5CM
