Descripción

We all try to build a life that feels secure. We put our jobs, our partners, or our ambitions on the top shelf of our lives. Then we wonder why the pressure feels so heavy. We expect regular people to give us what only God can provide. In this talk, guest speaker Pastor Jonathan Smith looks at Mark chapter 8 and Peter's very honest mistake. Peter tried to correct Jesus because he wanted the Messiah to follow his script. Instead of carrying the crushing weight of control, this conversation invites us to let go. We don't have to hand God a script for how we want our lives to go. We can step back, let Him take the top shelf, and follow where He leads. Join us Sundays at 11am + 6pm. Doors open 30mins before for ☕️.https//:www.facebook.com/blackpool.church [https://www.google.com/search?q=https://www.facebook.com/blackpool.church]https//:www.instagram.com/blackpool.church [https://www.google.com/search?q=https://www.instagram.com/blackpool.church]https//:www.tiktok.com/@blackpool.church [https://www.tiktok.com/@blackpool.church]

episode St Paul Part Two - Sam Lee | Bigger x Bolder artwork

St Paul Part Two - Sam Lee | Bigger x Bolder

What do weeds, awkward phone calls, and a guy falling out of a window have in common? In this talk from our Bigger x Bolder series, Sam looks at Acts 20. Instead of letting frustration win, this conversation invites us to find our particular purpose. When you know why you're doing something, you don't quit. You keep going.

episode Cornelius and Peter - Ffion Tisnell | Bigger x Bolder artwork

Cornelius and Peter - Ffion Tisnell | Bigger x Bolder

We love to feel in control of our lives. But life rarely stays inside the neat boxes we build for it. We struggle to accept people who are different. We let our past experiences lock us into rigid mindsets.In this talk from our Bigger x Bolder series, Ffion looks at Acts 10. She breaks down the strange story of Peter, Cornelius, and a vision that flipped the early church upside down.Instead of staying stuck in old prejudices, this conversation invites us to see how God orchestrates our lives. He cares about the details. He doesn't show favouritism. He wants the whole world, your heart, and your help.Join us Sundays at 11am + 6pm.

episode Saul's Conversion - Jack Boon | Bigger x Bolder artwork

Saul's Conversion - Jack Boon | Bigger x Bolder

We love being completely certain. It feels good to have your lists sorted and your opinions firmly locked down. But keeping score gets exhausting. Living with a checklist for everyone else leaves us tired and isolated.In this talk, Jack looks at Acts chapter 9. He tracks the story of Saul, a religious elite who had his life completely flipped upside down on a dirt road. He wasn't looking to change. He thought he was the hero of his own story. Instead of forcing our own rightness, this conversation invites us to drop the mental scorecards. It invites us to open our lives to an unexpected interruption. We might just find that being changed means being sent to the exact people we used to avoid.Join us Sundays at 11am + 6pm.

episode Peter's Preaching - Stephen Tisnell | Bigger x Bolder artwork

Peter's Preaching - Stephen Tisnell | Bigger x Bolder

We hate losing control. Letting someone truly love us feels terrifying. We build high walls to stay safe. In this talk from our Acts series, Steven looks at Acts chapter 2. Peter stands up to give the very first church sermon. The crowd is waiting for a massive shift. They get something completely unexpected. Instead of staying safe and isolated, this conversation invites us to accept an unconventional birthday gift. God offers a promised kingdom to live in. He gives a real king to follow. He provides a new heart to live with. It happens through normal people having normal conversations. Join us Sundays at 11am + 6pm.
