This year’s Fellowship of Word and Spirit conference will explore that theme of godliness, reflecting on how it has been understood by Christians in the past, as well as specific areas of application for today. We will have plenty of time to consider the implications for our expression of faith in the church and how we should address issues arising in our community.

The distinctive of this conference, is that we actually “confer”! That is, we foster a forum for debate, sharing ideas and encouraging one another in ministry. Each session is rooted in good teaching, but has substantial time for interaction, application and deepening our appreciation of it. We are committed to reformed theology and its application to the whole of life, but are ready to encourage and help each other wrestle with its challenges. We are a genuine fellowship, with plenty of time given for spiritual encouragement and prayer, for cultivating friendships old and new, and for resting from the usual frantic pace of ministry. We hope it will be a time of genuine spiritual and physical refreshment for both clergy and lay people.

Audio and video sermons for the autumn and winter 2020/21.

Over the summer, many churches used our audio and video sermon series in a variety of ways: in online services in physical gatherings, in midweek meetings, as occasional cover for gaps in the preaching rota, and on telephone recordings for those without internet access. We are pleased to say that we will be offering a number of sermons for the autumn and winter as listed below.

You are very welcome to use these sermons as you choose. Some are already available to download, and the rest will be added later this week. You can still download the summer sermons at the same link, if they would be useful to you.

The sermons follow the lectionary readings for the indicated weeks:
October 25th: Psalm 119:9-16
Nov 1st: Matthew 5:1-12
Dec 27th: Luke 2:15-21
Jan 3rd: John 1:1-18

There is also a talk suitable for use in a carol service on Luke 2:8-15.
