What does being a follower of Jesus look like? Pastor Jacqui Redmond explains how the transforming work of the Holy Spirit is expressed through His nine fruit as we walk by the Spirit, keeping in step with Him as we follow Jesus. To help us both remember the nine fruit, and how they can be grown in our experience, Pastor Jacqui speaks about them under three headings. 1.The Holy Spirit transforms us from the inside out.  Everything flows from love the new commandment Jesus gives us in John 13. Love is our distinctive characteristic as believers, expressed most powerfully in forgiveness. Pastor Jacqui shares a moving and powerful story of forgiveness from the life of holocaust survivor and missionary, Corrie ten Boom, as she came face to face with one of her former prison guards. Whilst forgiveness is a challenge, God walks with us in our forgiveness journey. We are also transformed by joy which we can find even in the midst of trials. Happiness depends on circumstances, but joy is a heavenly gift. Peace, says Jesus in John 14, is given to us and left with us. As nineteenth century preacher Charles Haddon Spurgeon reminds us “Anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows. It empties today of its strength.” Growing the fruit of peace is the Spirit’s answer to the anxieties of life. 2. The fruit is our witness to others. Jesus’ love in us, is shown through our own love to others, and this comes out most powerfully when we are put under pressure. Patience is a powerful witness in an impatient world. Pastor Jacqui reminds us that “God is working when we are waiting.” Kindness expresses love in a way that genuinely benefits others and not just ourselves. The great example of kindness in Jesus’ parables is the Good Samaritan. We hear Jesus’ exhortation to us: “Go and do likewise.” Goodness is the quality of moral uprightness, or integrity, revealing the character of God in us. 3. God is developing in us a lasting character. God is faithful, and faithfulness is our response to Him - staying true to God. Pastor Jacqui shares an example of how a small act of kindness was part of evangelist DL Moody’s journey to faith in Jesus. We are encouraged never to underestimate small acts of kindness. Gentleness is not weakness, but rather controlled strength. We are encouraged, in particular to remain gentle when we speak truth to one another. Finally, Pastor Jacqui reminds us that self control is like a wall that protects our souls. As Proverbs 25.28 reminds us “Like a city whose walls are broken through is a person who lacks self-control.”  Pastor Jacqui invites us to reflect on this - what kind of fruit is your life producing? She encourages us with this: “Fruit is not produced by striving harder. Fruit is produced by staying close to Jesus - and the Holy Spirit will shape us and mould us.” We welcome you to Bridge Community Church, Leeds! We invite you to join our online community!

Living Stones

From Peter's first letter, Pastor Steve explores what it means for us to be living stones in God's spiritual house. Jesus was the rejected stone who is now the cornerstone and capstone. If we ever feel rejected, abandoned or excluded, we know that we are now chosen, not discarded by Jesus. We are people with a threefold hope. For the past, our sin is wiped out, in the present Jesus is with us, and we have the future hope that death is defeated. 1 Peter chapter 2 speaks to the core of our identify in Christ, and pastor Steve draws out four dimensions. * We are accepted - God's special possession. As Pastor Steve reminds us: "People may have written you off. Jesus has written you in." * We are chosen. God originally chose Israel to reveal Himself to the world. Now we are also chosen to share in the same vocation - chosen not on the basis of merit, but because of His great love for us. * We are a holy nation - set aside and marked out for God's special purpose. As holy people we live to please and honour God through lives of love. * We are a royal priesthood. In the Old Testament the priesthood was limited to men - and only men from a certain tribe and of a particular age range. Now we all get to share the privilege of being part of God's ministry team. * Our priestly privileges and responsibilities flow upwards in prayer and praise, inward towards each other as we share the gifts God gives us to promote the common good, and and outwards and priests and mediators between God and people. "You will be at your most fruitful when you take up your place as a royal priest and intentionally minister in, and minister out." Reject rejection, and take your place as a member of God's royal family! We welcome you to Bridge Community Church, Leeds! We invite you to join our online community!

Faithfulness of God

What does the Bible mean when it talks about the faithfulness of God? What does this look like? How is the faithfulness of God experienced? And how do we, in our own day to day experience, grow in our own journey of faithfulness with God? Pastor Jacqui Redmond draws richly on powerful verses of Scripture from the Old and New Testaments to explore the following truths: * God is always faithful - even in the darkest times and seasons. * God is faithful to all His promises. * Trust and worship is our response to our faithful God. Jacqui inspires us with illustrations from great teachers in Christian history and memorable quotes from people who have demonstrated God's faithfulness through their own experience. As Corrie ten Boom said: "Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God." Whether you are in a period of life where you are feeling tired, challenged, waiting, or worried, the Lord's invitation to us today is to trust again in God' faithfulness.

Looking Unto Jesus

In this wide-ranging message Pastor Bawa reminds us of why, and how, we maintain our Jesus focus. Jesus is the supreme and sinless Son of God, and to live our lives as God intended we need to keep Him in steady focus as the pioneer and perfecter of our faith. From Mark's Gospel and chapter 8, Pastor Bawa reflects on how Jesus healed the blind man at Bethsaida - how the man's vision was restored first partially, then perfectly, and then permanently. Pastor Bawa shows how the man's environment affected his vision and his faith and draws out attention to the wisdom Jesus gave him to ensure that he maintained the clarity of his restored vision. Teaching on what can blur or distort our vision of Jesus, Pastor Bawa reminds us all of the central vows of marriage, and the long-term nature of this commitment. Central to a clear vision of Jesus is a secure and Godly home life. Pastor Bawa asks us where our vision of Jesus has become dimmed, in particular in allowing other priorities to take precedence over our home lives. Allow this message to enable you to restore - perfectly and permanently - a clear vision of Jesus and His priorities for your life. We welcome you to Bridge Community Church, Leeds!

On this Pentecost Sunday, Mark Yeadon opens the Scriptures to show how creation, new creation, and re-creation each begin around a wedding. The first creation begins with the wedding of Adam and Eve and the re-creation will see Jesus united to his bride (Revelation 21). If anyone is in Christ, says Paul, there is a new creation (2 Corinthians 5:17). This new creation also begins with a wedding - at Cana. Mark draws out the significance of this wedding in which we witness the first of Jesus’ signs in the gospel of John. For wine to run out at a wedding would be a source of shame for the hosts as well as disappointing for the guests. In our new creation, Jesus removes our shame and gives us joy.  Mark shares how Mary is a model for us to understand how Jesus brings, and keeps bringing, the experience of new creation to us. As Mary shows us that we can come to Jesus, load our problems on him, and that we need to be prepared to do whatever he tells us to do. Mark invites us to bring to Jesus our challenges, problems, and our thirst, and to be blessed not with wine but with the filling of His Holy Spirit. Make Him Lord, and allow His love to be poured out into you, and to flow out through you. We welcome you to Bridge Community Church, Leeds! We invite you to join our online community!
