Transformed By His Goodness

Nahum 1:7. God is Good. God wants His goodness/promises to be a hiding place in tough times. He becomes hiding place, when we are fully convinced concerning His nature and His power. RM 4:21. 
 
In life it is very easy to have the right doctrine but still be a mess. To have truth only operating at the level of head knowledge. God wants a revelation/faith in His goodness to cause us to take steps of obedience in response, He wants our emotions to line up with what we say we believe. James 1:22
 
So how can we know if we really believe He is good. The next time disappointment/setback hits become a student of your words, MATT 12:34 Listen out for pessimistic, negative, woe, victim words. These words tell us where our unbelief is  Trials lets us see the true colour of our faith. 
 
To see unbelief turn into belief, hopelessness become transformed by faith isn't about trying harder, we mustn't become one anothers word police. The key to feasting on God in the midst of life is what we believe, to be transformed we need to believe differently. A transformed life starts with the mind. Rm 12:2. The renewed mind first is about who He is, God is the answer. Peace, hope, and joy develop as we get rid of false ideas/lies about His goodness. 
 
Feasting upon God Boils down to trust. How much we are willing to trust Him? This doesn't mean we get all introspective, and analyse our level of faith, looking inwards is rarely the answer. Rather we make it our habit to hang out with Jesus, He's the author of faith. Hebrews 12:2,

Some key information about the church...

It’s good to get to the meeting 15 minutes early to enjoy a fresh cup of coffee before the service starts.

We meet at the church building in the middle of Plumstead

What should I expect when I visit the church?

You will receive a very warm welcome particularly from our Welcome Team who will be able to answer your questions and direct you to where you need to go.

Sunday is special because it’s the main opportunity in the week for the whole church family to gather, worship God, enjoy his manifest presence together, minister to one-another, receive encouragement and exhortation from God’s word and be refreshed by God’s Spirit and one-another’s friendship and support.

There will be approximately 45 mins of singing with opportunity for church members to pray, prophesy or read a passage from the bible. After the notices there will be a preach, we take time to understand the bible’s message and how this can teach us about God, about ourselves, about the world that we live in and about what authentic Christian lifestyle looks like in practice. At the end of the preach there is always a chance to respond.

Tea, coffee and biscuits are served after the service where there is plenty of time to meet new people and ask more questions.

 

What happens to the kids at church?

As a family church we are thrilled to have people of all ages involved in our Sunday morning meetings. Typically, after worshiping together for 30 minutes or so, the children and young people will leave for their own activities.

We have a fantastic programme for the kids at the Church for ages 0–14. Children stay with their parents at the start of the service as we worship (sing songs!) together for the first part of the morning. Someone will announce when the children need to go to their programme.

For more information about what happens in the children's work please visit the relevant age groups for you under church life.

Is there a dress code?

No! Please just be yourself and come dressed in your 'normal' clothes.

 

Will I have to join in?

You are free to simply observe or participate as much as feels comfortable for you.
