The Freedom of the Devout: Discovering the life you were made for
What does freedom really look like? It’s not drowning in anxiety, feeling trapped by perfectionism, or stuck in a cycle of procrastination. It’s not living under the weight of shame, regret or guilt either. So, what is this freedom Jesus promises- and how do we actually live it? Jesus said “look at the birds of the air; they don’t stress about tomorrow, yet God provides for them”. This isn’t just another talk, it’s your guide to breaking free and levelling up. Together we’ll explore what real freedom is and most importantly, develop practical steps to experience more of this freedom in your daily life.

Created for Love: Exploring the Meaning of Human Sexuality (+17)
What does it mean to be made in the image of God? How do our bodies, desires, and relationships reflect His purpose for our lives? There’s a lot of controversy around the Church’s teaching on sexuality, and to understand the purpose of sex in God’s plan for us, we need to understand what it means to be human and the purpose for which God created us. Together, we’ll unpack St. John Paul II’s profound teachings, discovering that our ultimate purpose is to be known and loved. Along the way, we’ll tackle the tough questions and uncover the beauty of who you are and the life God is calling you to live.

Living Differently
1 Pet 3:15 says "Always be prepared to make a defence to any one who calls you to account for the hope that is in you." When was the last time anyone ever 'called you to account' for your hope in Christ? For many of us probably not very recently because many of us don't live noticeably differently to the rest of the world. But the first Christians certainly did. This series will challenge you (and me) to live differently so that your hope in heaven is evident wherever you go through your way of life.

The Dark Room (+17)

Preserving Relationships God’s Way
Relationships are core to everyone’s sense of well-being. When relationships go well all is good, however when they don’t go well, nor do we. Relationships are core to the Christian message. In fact, this seems to be at the heart of the Gospel message. If this is so, why do so many relationships fail to stand the test of time and how is it that we can preserve what is precious to us. This lecture series will outline the steps to maintaining our relationships God’s way.
