”Friendship by God's Design” | Sara Snow from Co-Mission Women’s Day 2024
Monday Feb 05, 2024
Monday Feb 05, 2024
We were blessed to be together with over 600 women from around London to worship together, hear God's word, and be encouraged at our annual Women's Day. We heard from Sara Snow from St. Paul's Harringay on the topic of Friendship by God's Design
London’s a crowded city that is hungry for friendship. Social projects and charities are springing up to help tackle loneliness and enable people to make friends. What about in the church? Don’t we long for our churches to be full of friendships that are deeper, richer and more sincere? Jesus said, “Love your neighbour as yourself”. What better place to start as we explore how we can be the kind of friends that God calls us to be.

”Faithful in Singleness” | Dave Cornish and Jules Stroud from REVIVE 2023
Tuesday Oct 31, 2023
Tuesday Oct 31, 2023
We've been away getting ready for a big church year, but we wanted to share this last talk from REVIVE, our annual festival bringing the churches of the network to a field in Canterbury for a weekend of Bible Teaching, Worship, and great fellowship together as churches. This is from Dave Cornish and Jules Stroud on "Faithful in Singleness."
Most of us would probably not have chosen singleness. Yet God’s word calls it a gift and calls us to be faithful in it. And faithfulness is a whole church project. We are coming together at REVIVE to think through some of the particular challenges of being faithful to Jesus as a singleton, and how we as a whole church family can encourage each other to keep lifting our eyes to him on the way.
Dave, a member at Hope Church Sutton since the 2015 graft and an elder since 2019, joyfully leads their youth work. He teaches teenagers about following Jesus, and organises socials, camps and weekends away.
Jules has attended Christ Church Balham since 2010, serving as a ministry trainee from 2015 and now as a staff member. She finds joy in helping people understand God’s love.

”Faithful with Creation” | Andy Palmer from REVIVE 2023
Tuesday Oct 31, 2023
Tuesday Oct 31, 2023
We've been away getting ready for a big church year, but we wanted to share the last couple talks from REVIVE, our annual festival bringing the churches of the network to a field in Canterbury for a weekend of Bible Teaching, Worship, and great fellowship together as churches. This is from Andy Palmer on "Faithful With Creation."
We live at a time when the planet appears to be falling apart as a result of human selfishness, and Christian responses to the crisis have been polarised. Some have reduced their gospel down to mere environmental concern, whereas evangelicals have often tended to neglect this good endeavour out of a desire to save souls. How should we think about this creation? Come and see from the Bible the cosmic breadth of God’s mission to save, and how this might aid us in our evangelism.
Andy, who is ordained in the Church of England, served at St John’s Downshire Hill after training at Oak Hill Theological College. He’s been ministering at Christ Church Balham for four years.

”Faithful In Suffering” | Andy Mason from REVIVE 2023
Friday Aug 25, 2023
Friday Aug 25, 2023
This is our Summer Series on Talks and Seminars from REVIVE, our annual festival bringing the churches of the network to a field in Canterbury for a weekend of Bible Teaching, Worship, and great fellowship together as churches. This is from Andy Mason on "Faithful In Suffering"
If you have ever faced difficult things in your life, someone might have said – in an attempt to comfort you – that ‘God suffers with you’. But is this actually true, and is it a comfort? If it is true, what does it say about God – and us? In this seminar, we’ll be diving deep into theology and seeing how it connects in amazing and powerful ways with the struggles of our lives.
Andy became a Christian as a teenager through the witness of a friend, and through reading a Gideon’s Bible. He’s married to Kathrine and has two children, Ori and Pella. He helped to plant St John’s Church Chelsea in 2006 and has been there ever since. He's also the Director of Strengthening for Co-Mission.

”Faithful at Work” | Jo Evans from REVIVE 2023
Tuesday Aug 08, 2023
Tuesday Aug 08, 2023
This is our Summer Series on Talks and Seminars from REVIVE, our annual festival bringing the churches of the network to a field in Canterbury for a weekend of Bible Teaching, Worship, and great fellowship together as churches. This is from Jo Evans on "Faithful at Work"
Living for Jesus has never been easy, but Christians in the workplace today are increasingly concerned about the consequences they may face if they act in accordance with their conscience or share their faith in Jesus. This seminar will encourage Christians by reflecting on their God-given purpose in the workplace, touching on their legal freedoms and providing practical guidance on how to respond well to the thorny questions of our time. Ultimately all this will give us greater confidence to speak and live for Jesus.
Jo joined the Evangelical Alliance in October 2020 and does project management, writing and resource creation in the advocacy team for the UK church.

”Faithful at Church” | Ed Kendall from REVIVE 2023
Saturday Aug 05, 2023
Saturday Aug 05, 2023
This is our Summer Series on Talks and Seminars from REVIVE, our annual festival bringing the churches of the network to a field in Canterbury for a weekend of Bible Teaching, Worship, and great fellowship together as churches. This is from Ed Kendall on "Faithful at Church"
Quite possibly, the most significant thing we'll ever do in our lives is to faithfully go to church, week in, week out. Why is gathering with other Christians so important? Why do we do what we do? And how can we make the most of these times? This seminar is both for those who love going to church and for those who really struggle with it. It will renew our vision for Sundays and help us see God’s genius in calling his people to gather together.
Ed has been Vicar of St Michael’s Fulwell in Teddington since it was planted out of St Peter’s Fulham in 2014. He is married to Sally and they have three children, Harry, Bella and Theo.
