New video | Abuse allegations against my former church boss, David Fletcher- what to think?

Abuse allegations against my former church boss, David Fletcher- what to think? Channel 4 News, UK has broken a story today about alleged sexual abuse of girls and women by former Rector of St Ebbe's Church Oxford, my former boss David Fletcher. I go to the Bible to get help on how to think about this awful news. Watch now Check out my new Bible Overview series #0: This will transform the way you read the Bible 5 kingdoms and 1 eternal king to rule and bless the universe. This is God's...

5 Christmas prophecies that transform what we know about Jesus As we retell the Christmas story, we're going to dive into 5 incredible prophecies made hundreds of years before Jesus was born. They aren't simply God predicting the future (although they are that), they are much more. In them God is explaining the true significance of Jesus' birth for a world in desperate need of a saviour. Grow in your faith this Christmas as we begin to marvel at God's astonishing plan to save the world...

Nov 21, 2024 The 3 MOST important verses in the Bible Which verses would you pick for this? Spoiler alert, in this third video of my 'God's Storyline' Bible overview series, we're up to Abraham...(I'm thinking you can guess the verses). The promises God makes in these verse set the agenda for the rest of the Bible. We also find out why covenants aren't made they are 'cut', why Paul saw Abraham as so important theologically, and why the geo-politics of the first battle in the Bible tells us...

Hi Friends, The Fall of Humanity, Genesis 3: (Bible Overview Episode 2) Rebellion, conflict, murder. Genesis ch 3 and its immediate aftermath paints a miserable picture of a world spiralling downwards to destruction. And, as you probably know, it all starts with a seemingly innocuous conversation with a snake. In this second video from my 'God's Storyline' Bible overview series, we trace the Bible's story from Adam and Eve to the tower of Babel. I also answer questions like 'Where did evil...

Hi Friends, Without Genesis chapters 1 and 2 it's impossible to understand the Bible, and really anything at all. Because these chapters set the foundation for everything else that follows- how we understand who God is, what the world is, who we are, and where history is heading. I also have a stab at answering the questions 'was creation done in 6 literal days?' 'hasn't science disproven Christianity?' and 'what about intelligent design?' Click above to watch.

Hi Friends, Here's my new Bible overview: I've tweaked Graeme Goldsworthy's 'Gospel and Kingdom' and Vaughan Robert's 'God's Big Picture' to create my own storyline of the Bible, using Goldsworthy's framework but slimming down Vaughan's 8 kingdoms into 5 (easier to remember me thinks). There's quite a bit of theology mashed up with timelines, maps, cinematic images and a movie style soundtrack. This is a great place to dip your toe into Biblical Theology (i.e. understanding the whole...

New video | ONE WORD for each book of the BIBLE Hi Friends, If you could choose one word for each book of the Bible what would it be? And to make it more theologically interesting it has to be a word about what God is doing in that book: 'God of...'. This is such an interesting challenge- me and Rod spent a happy evening in the pub whilst the children were at youth group debating my choices. Then I had to create 66 images to match. Do let me know if you've got improvements to my suggestions,...

New video | Your Life and God's Master Plan for the Universe Hi Friends, This is a video for you if you feel your life is going nowhere. Find out what's God been doing in the universe, where it's all headed, and how you plug into this. We're going to do a whole Bible overview (in just 4 minutes). Then we'll look at our individual lives and find out what the Bible really tells us about God's plan for us. It's going to be super encouraging. Zoe Real Life Bible Level 1, St Andrew's House,...

New video | How to be confident our decisions fit with God's plans Hi Friends, Check out this short encouraging video about how the wonderful (and mind bending) fact of God's sovereignty over our decisions means we can have confidence in Him, even when we mess up our life choices. There's no plan B with God. Zoe P.S. Look out for the handy animated diagram that explains how good/bad, wise/foolish choices fit into God's moral and sovereign wills.

New video | Does Prayer Actually Work? By C. S. Lewis Hi Friends, I've just spent a week delving into the essays of C.S. Lewis - this one on prayer is such genius! Honestly, I've found it super encouraging, awe inspiring and almost shocking to see how small our understanding of God is. Lewis graciously but with a sharp clarity disabuses us of our foolish misperceptions. (There's also a jazz soundtrack and I made the AI images in the style of Wes Anderson - sort of dorky 1950s vibe that goes...
