In the third and final part of our Jonah series Kurt examines the sometimes scandalous nature of God who pursues even the least deserving of people in order to rescue them. He also draws a comparison with the Eldest son in the story of the Prodigal Son, who also couldn't bear to see his Father's mercy towards his wayward, undeserving brother.

In this first part of a mini series on Jonah we look at our Missional God in action throughout the story. Our God who is concerned for the nations - be they Jewish or Gentile. A God who cares, acts, steps in to the story in pursuit of people, and who continues to do so today.

An eight minute introduction and overview of the book of Jonah, where we look at the authorship, context, key questions and elements of this tiny book that punches well above its weight!

Having reached Philippi Paul and Silas have an encounter with a fortune-telling slave girl and then end up in prison after being flogged. They aren't confined there for long though!

Our Allsorts story enters the last week of Jesus' life before his crucifixion. We take a look at what role Judas took in betraying Jesus and what happened at the Last Supper - especially looking at what instructions Jesus left his followers. Today's Allsorts is illustrated through the use of Lego!

The chapter is closing on the First Missionary Journey and it ends in a sharp disagreement and parting of ways by Paul and Barnabas. Barnabas choosing to return to Cyprus with John Mark and Paul deciding to pick a new travelling partner in Silas to begin the Second Missionary Journey. Conflict - how can God use it?

Paul and Barnabas head to Jerusalem to help sort out a big disagreement that has arisen. They attend the council in Jerusalem to discuss whether or not circumcision is necessary for the new Gentile believers. Through several sketches Geraint poses the question as to whether or not today we still have 'expectations of practice' for new believers, and do they fit in the story of grace?

Continuing our Allsorts journey through the Bible we arrive at the story of Jesus and the sinful women. Jesus has a very special appointment that day and it isn't the one at the Pharisees' table - it is an anointing by a woman, her perfume and her tears. Another all age service with something for everyone!
