Did you know that God is fluent in all the five love languages?

He loves us with a hesed (steadfast, faithful, loyal) love and an agape (self-giving, sacrificial) love. And when His love truly lands , it doesn’t just comfort us - it frees us from fear, heals shame, changes our behaviour and anchors our identity. It also reshapes the way we love others.

What a wonderful morning at Harvest Fields <3

Are we meant to be more than a decoration?

This week Sue unpacks Ephesians 2v10 and reminds us that God has things for us to do and we're not just here to "look good"!

Through the extraordinary story of Brother Andrew and the everyday faith of Peter in Acts 3, we’re invited to see how God uses ordinary people who choose obedience over passivity. This message explores the tension between faith and works, spectator Christianity Vs performance Christianity, and gently calls us to open our eyes to the good works that God has already prepared for us - right where we are, and sometimes far beyond our comfort zones.

What does it really mean to be persecuted for your faith?

This Sunday we circled back to the disciples and discovered how each of them went on to be persecuted for their faith.

We then watched a video from Open Doors UK which shone a light on the persecuted church of today (you can watch this video at www.opendoorsuk.org).

Much of the morning wasn’t recorded, as we then spent time praying for Christians around the world and sharing communion together.

Friction in life is not always a bad thing, but how do we cope when we’re hard pressed, perplexed, persecuted or struck down?

Sue unpacks 2 Corinthians 4v8-9 with stories and vivid illustrations, reminding us that pressure doesn’t have to crush us. She encourages us to memorise these powerful verses - not just for the prized lollipop, but so that when life squeezes, confuses, opposes or knocks us down, we remember that God is with us and we are not destroyed.

As the New Year passes, is it time to let go of the old year and welcome the new? Sue shares encouragement of how to do this biblically and practically.
