Despite our best wishes, not every year is a 10 out of 10 year. We often stumble into a new year after months of hardship or suffering. However, Jesus came to save the broken and the weary. So if you feel like you're not "thriving" this new year, Joel's talk this week will be just what you need to feel ready for this year.

Our story of Daniel continues, as the king of Babalon, Nebuchadnezzar, calls on him to interpret a dream no one else can. At this time, God reveals himself to Daniel to give him the meaning of the Nebuchadnezzar's dream, an act only God could achieve.

Often the world we live in can feel alien to live in with Christian faith. Society usually contradicts what we believe, and frequently tries to mould us into something that does not align with how God wishes us to live our lives. This week we start a new series looking at the book of Daniel, where Daniel and his friends are taken from their home and forced to live as Christians in an environment that is hostile towards their faith.

Jesus tells a story of workers hired throughout the day to work in a vineyard. However, when the day is over, they are all paid the same amount for different amounts of work. This week, Tim unpacks this parable and shows us how God's ultimate and unending grace is shown through this story.
