How to be Faithful Disciples in a Digital Age

27 May 2020 | Dave Patty

There is no doubt that the digital age is all around us – even more now that social distancing has forced much of our ministry to move online. With 1.09 billion mobile phone connections in Europe and 711 million internet users, the digital world opens up great possibilities for advancing Christ’s kingdom. But in the big sea of opportunities, which ones are worth pursuing? With all of the potential, where are the hidden dangers? The Word of God has some surprisingly relevant insights to guide us as we seek to be faithful disciples in a digital age.

Naked Without Shame: The Bible's Revolutionary View of Sex

26 May 2020 | Stefan Gustavsson

Since the 1960’s the sexual revolution has swept like a tsunami over the Western world, radically changing our understanding of what it means to be a relational, bodily, and sexual being. Today we see the pain and the scars that have followed. The Bible presents an equally revolutionary – but much more affirmative and sacred – view of relationships, bodies, and sex. This video, premiered on 26 May 2020, was the seventh of nine plenary sessions for the European Leadership Forum, held entirely online for over 5,000 attendees worldwide.

 

We See Jesus – Hebrews 1:1-2:18

24 May 2020 | Peter Mead

Hebrews is unique: it is the only complete sermon recorded in Scripture! From the moment it begins it is pointing us to see Jesus as the focus not only of Hebrews, but also our faith. The introduction to Hebrews lifts our hearts to heaven before showing how God has stepped down into our world. Jesus is the one in whom we see God’s plan progressed to glory. As we look to him we can find confidence to press on in our less-than-glorious experience of disappointment, struggle, and suffering.This video, premiered on 24 May 2020, was the second of nine plenary sessions for the European Leadership

Laying Down Idols in Our Hearts

24 May 2020 | Sarah Breuel

Looking into Genesis 22 (Abraham sacrificing Isaac), we will reflect on God’s invitation to identify and surrender idols in our hearts. Abraham’s radical obedience is an example to us of a heart fully consecrated to God, which can stir personal revival that can transform a continent.

Evangelism: Why and How?

25 May 2020 | Rico Tice

The task of the evangelist in Ephesians 4:10-11 is to equip God's people for works of service, so we'll be looking at 'Evangelism - Why and How?' What are the key motivations we're trying to put in place in the heart of a regular member of our church families, and practically how do we then help them to begin to speak of Jesus? This session will focus on Romans 1:14-25 and 2 Corinthians 4:1-6 in the hope that these passages will inspire and strengthen our evangelistic training.
