It is so exciting to look back on 2011 because it marks 10 years of our team living and doing ministry in the UK. For a lot of those years we have been sowing seeds and really learning how God wants to use our team here. But, 2011 felt like after a season of sowing [...] Read more »

A group of men all signed up to get their legs waxed last week. Some of our young people have signed up for Chilly for Chile which will be a lock-in night in the Pavilion with no heating and no beds. People have started to buy Christmas gifts from a website that gives a certain [...] Read more »

Crowded House
This autumn we shifted our 3 Gospel Communities around, with goals of being able to better grow, celebrate, worship, serve, and care for each other. The group we lead is made up of 4 families, 2 of which are new to our community, along with a few young people and 11 children — truly a [...] Read more »
 

I’m Ready

“Ready? OKAY!” These are the immortal words that initiate all cheers led by cheerleaders in America; or so my girlfriend faithfully informs me. When asked if I was “ready” to take the reins of Reign Ministries’ (pun intended) youth ministry back in June, I feel like my “OKAY”, was a lot more cheerful than the [...] Read more »

I’ve always liked a good meal.  My friends call me a ‘foodie.’  In fact, I run, so I can eat what I want to eat.  I know my way around the kitchen, partly because as a boy, I would ask my mom if we could have a certain food we’d had at a restaurant or [...] Read more »

The last few months our youth at the Pavilion have been going through an Alpha study–where they explore God and questions about life.  It’s been an interesting few months as most of the youth who come have been in or around church for years, have gone to Soul Survivor and attend church youth events on [...] Read more »
 

Curious Community Ignites Curious Faith

Food & Fire guys
This morning I read a really interesting passage in Acts.   If you look in chapter 5 of Luke’s recordings of the early church you will witness that a new movement called “The Way” is causing quite a stir.  His journal witnesses this… The apostles were performing many miraculous signs and wonders among the people.  And [...] Read more »

Bicester, Sheep Street, Tuesday, 6.45 pm. All the shops are closed. All the shops? No, one shop just started to become alive! It’s the Costa Coffee shop. Up to 40 teenagers aged 15+ show up every week to hang out, to talk and to have fun, but also to think about God, His love and [...] Read more »
 

Prayer is Important

Prayer is important. I was reminded just how much the other day. We have a family in our community that for a few years now have been semi-regular in their attendance, and half haphazardly connected in all they we do.  We’ve loved them, offered ways to connect them to others, and tried to let them [...] Read more »
 

Tables of Shalom

I think Jesus must have been a fairly hardy guy. When I read the gospels I see Jesus eating and drinking with his friends, the curious, and the outcasts. Where ever he is, manna is soon to be served on the table. It makes sense. Jesus knew that eating with people was symbolic gesture saying [...] Read more »
