Sermons at our main Sunday (10.30) service are recorded. If you missed one and want to catch up, or if you want to hear it again, please contact the church office. We keep sermons for a month after the service.
When we are following a particular theme or sermon series we put them onto the website. Here are some themes we have followed over the last few years:
Lent 2019: Don’t give up; take up!
According to a popular newspaper the most popular things to give up for Lent last year were chocolate, social networking, alcohol, Twitter, Facebook, school, meat, sweet, coffee and fizzy drinks. The abstinence from these things aims to remind us of the experiences of Jesus during his time of fasting for 40 days in the desert before he began his ministry and to help focus and reflect on the eventual sacrifice Jesus made for us on the cross. But, this period in Jesus life has far more to teach us about living a spirit filled Christian life that it does about giving things up.

Expectations of the Messiah
In this talk, on 14th November 2018, Paula Gooder looked at the development of the Jews’ understanding of a Messiah through the Old Testament, leading up to its fulfilment in Jesus. Paula is Director of Mission Learning and Development in the Diocese, and is a writer, lecturer and Reader.
