Beyond our own strength // Feb 2026
Sunday 22 Feb Pete James wraps up a pairing of talks about how important it is as a church to move beyond our own strength and into God’s strength. Pete looks at the life of Peter and how he was shaken from the fragile foundations of self-confidence and – via failure – was set upon the firm foundation of Jesus’ strength. Pete aims to give us hope to search inside the shaking and find God’s loving, faithful, purifying activity at work there.
Sunday 15 Feb Pete James highlights how fasting wakes us from apathy, reveals the things that control us, trains us for joy in times of lack and facilitates a power surge as we intentionally embrace our weakness and rely on God’s strength. Fasting is more than just something for Lent: it’s a vital way of life for a Christian aiming to push back against the idol of comfort.
