The salvation he won

2026/10/27

Paul Williams - Many Christians in the City know all too well what happens when they speak boldly in the workplace about the uniqueness of Jesus. In Acts 4v1-22 we look at Peter and John, standing before the highest court in the land, and uncompromisingly declaring Jesus to be the only way. And see why all Christians everywhere need to do the same. ‘There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.’ Acts 4v12

The blessing he gives

2026/10/20

Paul Williams - Our world is broken, and looking at all the fundraising and research people do, we clearly know it is. But even our best efforts can't fix this broken world; only Jesus can. And he will make it better than it ever was. Hear how, in Jesus, the best is yet to come: not just a better world, but a world beyond our wildest dreams.

The life he offers

2026/10/13

William Taylor - The news is dominated by death – and, tragically, for many of us, it is much closer to home. In Acts 3:1–16, we see that Jesus establishes a new world where death, suffering and pain will be abolished forever.

The evidence of a changed world

2026/10/06

William Taylor - What are the marks of an authentic Christian believer? The latest census has over 46% of the UK identifying as Christian. Here in the City we have witnessed significant numbers of men and women expressing renewed interest in the Christian faith. This makes Acts 2:37–47 acutely relevant.

The events that changed this world

2026/09/29

Paul Williams - Is there enough evidence to know that Jesus really is Lord and Christ? Yes. In Acts 2:22-36, the apostle Peter lays out that evidence: Jesus’ life, death, resurrection and ascension. Hear the case for Christ, and discover why the verdict matters more than any other decision you will ever make.

The agent of change in a changed world

2026/09/22

William Taylor - With over 650 million members, Pentecostal and Charismatic Christianity comprises the fastest-growing religious movement in the world. One in sixteen people worldwide is part of this movement. The events of the Day of Pentecost, recorded in Acts 2:1-21, continue to impact the world today. But what happened? What did it mean? And what, exactly, is Pentecostal Christianity?

The foundations of this changed world

2026/09/15

William Taylor - Foundations matter – as those who work on the 40th floor of the Gherkin will tell you! And the bigger the project, the more important the ground on which it is built. The New Testament repeatedly emphasises the trustworthiness of those on whom Jesus' kingdom is built. We will see in Acts 1:12–26 that their credentials are impeccable.

The moment the world changed forever

2026/09/08

William Taylor - There are multiple contenders for ‘the moment the world changed’. The invention of penicillin? The World Wide Web? 9/11? AI? But the opening verses of Acts point us to events of a completely different order that have radically transformed human existence forever. Hear how you can benefit from God’s agenda in this changed world.

How can you have faith that trusts and follows Jesus?

2026/09/01

Simon Rafferty - The Christian life is hard. For many of us, the finish line is likely to be decades away. So what will keep us going? What – or rather, who – should we ultimately look to?

How can you have faith through good times and bad times?

2026/08/25

Titus Waldock - Why does faith seem to “work” for some people, while others who trust God still suffer? Hebrews 11 shows us real faith can look like triumph or hardship, because its hope is fixed on something better than either.

How can you have faith when it means difficult choices?

2026/08/18

Nim Anderson - Moses grew up with the best Egypt had to offer, and walked away from all of it. Nim looks at Hebrews 11:23-31 and asks what's really stopping us doing the same: fear, treasure, or just not making a habit of it.

How can you have faith when it means missing out now?

2026/08/11

Archie Mowatt - FOMO shapes so many of our decisions. But what if the bigger danger is missing out on God's future promises? In Hebrews 11:17–22, we'll see how faith helps us hold good things loosely, trust God when obedience is costly, and live with confidence that death is not the end.

How can you have faith in a heavenly city beyond this world?

2026/08/04

Ian Bright - What if the career, home and security we're building today aren't our ultimate destination? Explore how Hebrews 11:8–16 shapes our present decisions around a future we cannot yet see, and why the promise of a 'better country' changes how we live in the here and now.

How can you have faith that God accepts you?

2026/07/28

Gabor Szarka - Most of us are interested in the legacy we leave behind. In this talk Gábor will explore from Hebrews 11:4–7 how a life lived by faith leads to a far greater legacy than any professional or personal accomplishment.

How can you have faith in something you can't see?

2026/07/21

Will Trump - 'I wish I had your faith.' If you've ever heard that (or thought it), listen to what the author of Hebrews says. Find out what faith actually is, and why the evidence for it is sturdier than the feeling.
