New year lunch party
As a Christian community, we are conscious of warmly welcoming those who join us in worship. We welcome others in the name of loving Saviour, whose arms are stretched out in welcoming love for all people. Today Jesus takes the concept of welcome further. After teaching his disciples about the challenges they will face in following him, he also promises that people will welcome them, and the message they bring of God’s welcome. God is at work before, during and after the interactions we have with others. Jesus calls us to be good hosts and good guests, welcoming others in his name, and welcomed by others as we share the good news.

- "Wow us!" "Blow us away. Yet while the Gospels tell us that many were amazed at his teaching, his miracles, his life, that amazement did not lead to transformed lives as disciples of Jesus. Entertainment is a spiritual powerless act offered to people to amuse and distract people from the reality of their lives.
Worship is a spiritual powerful act that is God-centred and God-directed that draws us into the presence of the all-powerful God who transforms every part of our lives by his grace. So today we explore the gift of ‘Worship in a world of entertainment.’
