Success can look very different to different people, but Chris uses his experience in life, business and faith to talk about one critical element, key to everyone who has had experience of some form of 'success' - perseverance!

Mathew speaks on Abraham and how he, as a stranger and sojourner in the land, pitched his tent wherever God lead him. We see that God has a place prepared for us as we, living under the presence of God, live as sojourners in this world according to the word of God.

In his letter, the Apostle Peter addresses his readers using two words - elect and exiles. This reminds us that we are chosen by God, and that we are not yet home - for we are citizens of heaven and He is bringing us home. Although our identity has been radically changed it takes courage and humility to discover the true freedom that accompanies our new identities.

The story of the good Samaritan is a picture of mercy. He is the God of mercy to all who are in need. God has called us to a purpose in this city; to bring His light and mercy to others.

The sermon on the mount is a picture of the flourishing Christian life. From small beginnings, the Kingdom of God extends into every part of our lives, no matter who we are with or what we are doing.

Pete leads us through a time of prayer. Pete explains about four main areas for the whole church to pray into. These four areas are: people, a building, our work amongst those most in need and our faithful giving.
