Forge Church Catchup

Rates rise, bills soar and incomes get squeezed. UK food prices rise by the fastest rate on record as the cost of living crisis bites. Between April 2020 and September 2021, the number of people reporting difficulty paying bills doubled to 15 million. It's a crisis, right? What can the church do? What can we do? WE HELP PEOPLE FIND & FOLLOW JESUS. We know that life is tough; now more than ever. We're sure you've got questions and uncertainties, but we believe Jesus can make difference, that faith can bring hope; even in these times and that the Church should be light in the darkness. We're embracing this new all-digital landscape and can't wait to interact with you online. We will ensure you receive a warm welcome whether you tune in every Sunday, or if church is new/unfamiliar territory for you. We love that you are able to be part of our community from the comfort of your own home. Feel free to interact through the week on social media, or stream LIVE online on Sunday morning! https://www.forgechurch.com/ https://www.facebook.com/forgechurchuk https://www.instagram.com/forgechurchuk/ https://www.youtube.com/user/forgechurch

Anticipation is woven into the very fabric of the Christmas story. The anticipation of a baby, a marriage, a destination, a saviour. It almost seems un-coincidental that anticipation is part of our current Christmas traditions too. Waiting for father Christmas, presents, family to arrive and the EastEnders Christmas special! What are the things you are anticipating this next year? A new job, finishing school, getting married, having a baby? We find ourselves longing for the big event. But Christmas reminds us that God is at work and with us even in the struggle and beauty of the waiting.

We all go through seasons of uncertainty; those times can fill our every waking moment with fear. It's like we're wandering around in a wasteland, and we don't know how or when we will every find our way back. What should we do when we don't know where to go or what step to take next? Is there anyone out there who can help?

Whether you love them or avoid them at all costs, ghost stories are powerful (even if we are old enough to know better thank to check the closet or under the bed)! But there is a Holy Ghost who does exist; fully God and all powerful. He works through Christians all over the planet yet sadly, Christians often seek to be known more for their talent and intellect rather than any supernatural power. Could it be that we have forgotten the one who distinguishes us from every other worldview on the planet? It's time to tell some ghost stories.

We all monitor our behaviour to some degree. This keeps us out of trouble and helps us in our personal and professional relationships. But Jesus invites his followers to take monitoring a step further.

It's Summer! And it's time for a road trip. Summer playlists, open roads, gorgeous scenery and late night deep chats about the mysteries of the universe! There is something about an open road and loyal friends that bring about the best conversations. This was certainly true for Jesus. When spending time out on the road with his friends traveling from town to town, Jesus turned moments of getting from A to B in to life changing lessons.

There are somethings that people just seem to talk about all the time, but at the same time no one can fully agree on. But these taboos aren't just things that people care about, God cares too. In fact God has some principles he has shared with his people in how we can engage with these issues in order to bring about a culture shift. Last year we launched our first ever culture shift series. It was one of the most popular series we have run with some feedback saying that it was their favourite series ever. So we thought we would do it again!

How many times in the past year have we uttered something like this… “I just can't wait for things to get back to normal!” And yet the old normal has gone and we venture into a new season. With this being the first Sunday that we're able to meet face to face for over 15 months, we just want to welcome you and enjoy being together, whether this is your first time ever joining us, or your first time back. Welcome to the Return

Switch on the TV or open up the internet and you will probably be hard pressed to find anything that people aren't prepared to talk about. Money, sex, drugs, celebrity gossip or politics. People love to talk about near enough anything. Everything, except for perhaps one thing. Death. Official statistics show that 100% of people born will one-day die, and yet almost nobody likes to think about ‘it' or even what happens next. In this series we invite you to join us as we mention what is normally ‘unmentionable'.

In 1999 Chanel 4 first broadcasted a show that would follow individuals in their journey to design and construct the home of their dreams. Here at The Forge we are doing just that; changing how we operate and redesigning what we call ‘home’. The Church was one of God’s grand designs, but it was more than just a 5-bedroom mansion made from glass situated on the Suffolk coast, it was way better than that. It was messy, full and alive. In our vision series we go through what this looks like for us going forward. WE HELP PEOPLE FIND & FOLLOW JESUS. We know that life is tough; now more than ever. We’re sure you’ve got questions and uncertainties, but we believe Jesus can make difference, that faith can bring hope; even in these times and that the Church should be light in the darkness.

With kids ‘jingle belling’ and everyone telling you ‘be of good cheer’... It really is the best time of the year... isn’t it?? After a year like 2020 it’s very difficult to find any ‘wonderful’ times. On top of that we’ve got the Christmas shopping to organise, the cooking, the decorating and finding somewhere for everyone to sleep! By the time the annual festivities begin we're usually already done with the whole thing... But behind all the ‘busy’ is something to really celebrate. Something that truly makes this time of year the most wonderful. A moment in history that defines Christmas as the ‘happiest season of all’. In this two week series, we’re going to sit back, take a breath, and remind ourselves about this wonderful moment, when the greatest story ever told began.

Guardrails: They’re everywhere, whether we need them to be or not. The thing about guardrails is that we don’t need them… until we do. When we do need one, it can be the difference between life and death. Maybe your greatest regret could have been avoided if you had established boundaries that kept you safe. In this five week series, we will be inspired and challenged to establish some personal guardrails.

There are certain topics that we seem unable to agree upon; subjects that are debated at length in the media, across our country and around the globe. These monolithic themes require real expertise to tackle, so we’re doing just that. We’ve going to be interviewing the experts, getting under the skin of these talking points & examining the topic with an authority on the matter. We'll also be consulting THE authority on all matters, seeing what God has to say on these huge issues. We believe God has something to say, that he has shared these thoughts with His people, so we’re going to dive into His viewpoint. Together we’re going to explore and engage with these issues, together we’re going to bring about a Culture Shift.
