Vision Sunday 2026

The Teacher in Ecclesiastes embraces hedonism, in all its forms, and finds it empty. We live in a hedonistic culture... which for many of us, we're finding, is empty. But our 'stuff' is not meaningless in the hands of God, our wants indicative of a longing for something, or someone MORE.

Angie unpacks the core of the Teacher's quest in Ecclesiastes - to gain knowledge, understanding and wisdom. We live in a time that says knowledge IS power, but Ecclesiastes might have some other words for us.

Ecclesiastes. One of the strangest books in the Bible. Yet it asks us some really honest questions. We start working our way through the wisdom book together.

Following on from our pastoral caution about spiritual warfare, we wanted to bring a few points of clarity where people had questions or weren't sure how to apply what was shared.

The Bible has a spiritual landscape that we interact with. And as followers of Jesus, we are called to engage in this by praying for the sick, casting out demons etc - but what about principalities and powers? What about angels? Tom shares a pastoral word on this.

Dan and his wife Vicky lead Central Vineyard in Northampton. Dan was kind enough to come and teach on guarding our hearts - the why, how and necessity.

We recap our 7^27 Vision, and update the church on where we're at with this and how God has been moving in it. And we introduce a couple more bits for the year ahead.

We take time to give thanks to the Lord for just some of the wonderful things He is doing in our midst.

Acts ends so fast. We hear nothing of what happens to Paul. It just stops... but we know the story didn't stop when Luke stopped writing. So what is there for us at the end of this book?

Josh reflects on Paul's missionary journeys and pulls out really helpful guidance for us as we follow Christ's call with our everyday lives; and how it leads to transformation in ways we can't imagine.
