Christmas Dinner is the biggest meal of the year for most of us, but why are we feasting? Jim explores how good feasting is, and how God offers us something “more and better” even than the best roast potatoes!
At Christmas, we love to give and receive gifts. So does God! But his most valuable present to us is his presence.
Guest speaker Andrew McNinch (Senior Pastor at Falkirk Vineyard) shares some Bible passages, and their challenges and encouragements for KV

Ben & Kate Newman, Pastors of Edinburgh Vineyard, were with us this Sunday and Kate spoke to us about practical ways of partnering with the Holy Spirit to bring in God’s Kingdom, now.
Carrie unpacks how following the practice of the Christ-pattern allows our common purpose to survive worldly pressure.
Paul is stuck in prison, his life turned upside down, but he keeps going and even rejoices! When life gets hard can we, like Paul, live with purpose? Can we live like Jesus lived? Can we set our eyes on the hope Jesus gives us?

There is surely no better passage for this purpose than this one!
