One Truth and Some Glue - Kenny Temowo - Vineyard61 Church by Vineyard 61 Church

Jo Frost ends our 'Being Human' sermon series. Part four looks at the last two cores: participation and presence. In this talk, Jo explores the story of personal perspective. Deconstruction, power dynamics but most of all – isolated chaos.

Jo Frost continues with our 'Being Human' sermon series. Part three, Connection. We looked at the second core aspect of the being human lens – Connection. We are image bearers of a loving and relational God. One who selflessly and fearlessly loves us and enables us to love others the same way.

Julia shares three truths that anchor and empower the Christian life: (1) Make Christ central, (2) Become a people of his presence and (3) Tend the garden of your heart.

Jo Frost continues with our 'Being Human' sermon series. Part two, Significance. To bear God’s image is to point creation back to Him. To know him and to make him known. We too are invited to hear from God, to know him and be known by him. Genuine self-knowledge begins by looking at God and noting how God is looking at us. It’s not about what you’ve done or haven’t done. What has been spoken over you or what you have believed about yourself? You cannot earn your significance or lose it. Your significance is not insecure. It is assured.

Jo starts off our new series on what does it mean to Be Human and how do we flourish in our humanity? How you start a story and how you end a story affects the story that you’re telling. Our story starts in a garden. But it ends in a city: A city where Life flows like a river, where healing grows on a tree, where tears are wiped away.

In this concluding message on the Kingdom of God, Steve talks about being constantly filled with the Spirit of God to enable us to partner with God in His transformation business.

From Preparation to Enthronement to Reign, Tabitha unpacks these stages that bring us to celebrating Easter and the Reign of Jesus on this day and every day going forward.

Do you feel as though the world isn’t as it should be? We are living between God’s D Day and VE Day in the reality of the Kingdom having broken through but not in all its fullness. Viv reminds us that the crucified King has defeated death and will one day return in complete victory.

The coming of Jesus marked the beginning of God’s rule and reign on the earth but why doesn’t it always look the way we think it should? Karen unpacks the characteristics of the Kingdom that help us recognise, receive and wrestle with this in our everyday lives.

What is this "Good News" that we hear Jesus talked about so much? Julia continues our series on Kingdom Come, starting by looking at Matthew 4 : 17 - 25.

As Christians, we need to recover our foundation story, and then place our individual stories within that Big Story. Mike opens our series "Kingdom Come" with The Story of the Kingdom.

In this cost of living crisis, will our response be one driven by fear or trust in God? Viv & Steve talk about what it means to be a generous community and reflect the generosity that God has extravagantly shown us. If you feel called to join in head to https://vineyard61.org/give/

God’s unanswered invitation to Jonah to truly understand his grace becomes an invitation to you and me to do the same! Phil ends our series on the book of Jonah with chapter 4.

God loves showing us mercy and completing His plans not through our strength, but through our weakness. He loves giving us second chances. Christine continues our series on Jonah - looking at Jonah 3:1-10 and sharing some of her story.

No matter where you go or what you do, you can’t escape God! Andy continues our series on the book of Jonah with Jonah 2:1-10.

When we hear Jonah, we probably think Whale - but in seeing the great fish have we missed the great God in the book of Jonah? Mike opens this 4 week series with Jonah 1:1-17 - Jonah runs but God follows.

God's presence is with us, wherever we go; as we serve our city and as we gather together. Steve wraps up The Power of Church series with 'Presence'.

The Church functions in different ways at different times, sometimes as an Army, a Home, a Hospital or a School. Each one of us has a part to play every time we gather. From our Battersea site, Tabitha continues our series on The Power of Church.
