Are you a cheerleader?
Are you a cheerleader? Are you a cheerleader? Not the sort of cheerleader in a skimpy uniform on the side of an American Football field performing gymnastic tricks! But the sort who cheers people on. God has given some a special gift of encouragement, but we are all able to support and encourage one another. […]

Praying in faith
Praying in faith Kate helps us to understand what it means to pray ‘in faith’. I’ve been thinking about how we pray ‘in faith’, and what does that mean? In the Lord’s prayer we ask God to ‘give us today our daily bread’. We can’t fake faith or try and pretend we believe, the key […]
