St Andrew's Church, Oxshott

As we continue in our studies of thre Nicene Creed, Dean Finnie, one of our mission partners from South Africa, speaks about Jesus (his favorite subject!) and why it is important to understand that Jesus is truly God and truly human.

In the first of our studies through the Nicene Creed, Patrick explores what it means for God to be the maker of everything.

Steph asks James to help her, but James thinks it might not be fun.

Where does your security lie? Is it in your own resources, or in God?

Phillip speaks about the story of the rich man and Lazarus and how we have been saved by Jesus death on the cross in our place. In it he recalls a talk of the same name given at St Andrew's nearly 20 years ago by Rico Tico, which you can listen to at Riches to die for.

You've heard the parable of the lost sheep many times. But are there some things about it that you have missed? Listen to to Ellie as she reveals some key thoughts.

Charleen shares her thoughts on what Jesus was teaching in the parable of the wheat and the weeds.

As we start our summer series on the parables of Jesus, Andy Winter, Chaplain of Reed's School, unpacks the parable of the vineyard. What was Jesus teaching us through this, and what was he NOT teaching us?

Jesus met with two of the disciples on the road to Emmaus and explained to them from the scriptures the whole of the 'God Story'. Do we sometimes have moments when Jesus unexpectedly reveals something about himself to us? Just like them, we need to share with others how we have met with Jesus.

In the final talk in "The God Story" Patrick (the taller!) explains the significance for us of the often puzzling book of Revelation.

What is 'The Church'? Patrick explains that it is NOT a building, or an institution. It is God's people, making Him known in the world by their example.

At our 'All Age' service, Patrick talks about Jesus being the Good Shepherd, and what that means for us.

Patrick explores the events of Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem and his subsequent crucifixion and resurrection. Is this just an interesting, if tragic, story from history, or does it have life changing consequences for us today?

Continuing our series on 'The God Story', Phillip looks at Jesus the King.

On Trinity Sunday, Patrick gives some important insights into how we should think of the Trinity.

As we return to our series on 'The God Story', Patrick looks at the turbulent time when Israel wanted a King,' like all the other nations'. Spoiler alert... It didn't end well!

Phillip explains that forgiveness, and our need of it, lies at the heart of the Gospel.

On Easter Sunday, Patrick asks "Is it true?"

On Palm Sunday, Chris looks afresh at the familiar story of Jesus' entry into Jerusalem to see what we can learn from it.

Patrick takes us on a roller-coaster ride through Exodus and beyond, describing Moses leading the people out of Egypt and establishing the Hebrew nation. But what does it mean for us today? God is telling us to Look, Listen and Leap.

Patrick looks at the story of Abraham showing what it means to walk with God even when the path ahead of us is unknown and unclear.

Philip reflects on the truths for today that can be found in the Creation story of Adam and Eve tempted by the serpent in the Garden of Eden and eating from the forbidden tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

As we begin our new series on 'The God Story', Patrick looks at the opening verses of Genesis. "In the beginning God..."

As we return to the church buildings following their renovation, Philip recalls his family's warm welcome to St Andrew's nearly 50 years' ago and the importance of opening the doors and giving an enthusiastic welcome to all others.

Patrick explores changing our attitude and actions towards those who come into our community and the importance of reaching out to welcome them.

We each have a vital role within Christ's mission to the world because we are each a vital part of the body of Christ, his church, in this world today.

Patrick explains that being united doesn't mean we all need to be the same. God gives us many different gists, but they all have the same source -- the Holy Spirit.

Phillip looks at John the Baptist's 'preaching' at Jesus' baptism and sees it as an example of what good preaching should be.

Epiphany is about the star guiding the wise men to Jesus, and now we are called to be the light that guides our neighbours to Jesus.

We don't like talking about the bad news in the 21st century church, but Advent is all about 'bad news' as well as 'good news'. It is a call to repent and change our ways.

At our evening service Steph talks about trusting Jesus.

What is a herald and what is an evangelist? Patrick answers these questions and more as he looks at Peter's sermon in Acts.

Does God heal today? Find out by listening to Patrick's sermon.

John 3:16 is a succinct description of the Gospel. But what about 1 John 3:16? Are we prepared to serve our brothers and sisters, especially those who are most needy? We see in Acts how the early church demonstrated their love.

In the first of a new series on the Church in Acts, our vicar, Patrick, talks about the importance of church as family.

As we celebrated Patrick's installation as our new vicar, Bishop Paul Davies, spoke particularly about v16 of John 15. 'You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you.'

In the last of our summer series on the psalms, Bryan from St Andrew's, Cobham, speaks about Psalm 63. With Christ, regardless of our situation we can grow anywhere.

Elisabeth Burke speaks about Psalm 102 as 'a prayer from one whose life is falling to pieces and lets God know how bad it is'!

Continuing our series in the Psalms, Phillip talks about the confidence we have from knowing God.

In a break from our series on the psalms, Andy Winter, chaplain of Reed's school, speaks about Philippians 2. We don't have to work FOR our salvation (that has been achieved by Jesus), but we have to work OUT our salvation, because God is at work in us enabling us to work for his good pleasure.

Continuing our series on 'Psalms in the Summer', Charleen, from St Andrew's Cobham, speaks about this rather challenging shocking Psalm, which calls for vengeance. How do we make sense of this as God's inspired word?
