The Partnership

Working TogetherOn Sunday we begin a new sermon series in Philippians. In our home groups for the next two months we will be looking through the same letter spending more time thinking through what this letter means for us today.

Paul wrote this letter to the Christians in Philippi thanking God for all that he has and is doing in them and encouraging them to keep going. Paul invites the Christians in the city to be partners in God’s global enterprise.

More of the handouts will be published during the term. You’ll find them under the RESOURCES section of the website.

New Podcast

Podcast LogoThe Emmanuel Sermons are now available as a podcast.  We want as many people as possible to have easy access to sound Bible teaching.  We’ll try and keep it updated to include at least the four most recent sermons. 

The latest talks will still be available right here on our blog, so don’t worry if you don’t use podcast.  But with this extra feature people will be able to download Bible talks straight onto their ipods.

You can either subscribe from within your itunes program.  (Search the podcast directory for ‘Emmanuel Church’ or find us under ‘Christianity’)  If you use another program, you can subscribe to our feed by clicking here.  If you have any questions, please email us.

It’s our birthday

Birthday Cake

This Sunday, Emmanuel is celebrating its first birthday. It’s just one year since our official launch, and there is much to thank God for as we look back. If you’re coming to church this week, don’t forget to wear a festive hat!

It’s also an opportunity to look forward and to commit ourselves again as a church to love the Lord Jesus Christ … and in single-minded devotion to him, to give ourselves afresh to being ‘a Bible church’ and ‘a gospel church’.
