4:12 5th Anniversary Night



















Wow!

I actually can't believe it has been 5 years of 4:12!  

For the Lord is good. His unfailing love continues forever, and his faithfulness continues to each generation. [Psalm 100:5]


On Friday 4th October we want to celebrate 5 years of God's faithfulness to us!  There will be lots of memories, fun, celebration, food on the night.


But most importantly - we will be inviting some people we haven't seen in a long time, and some people who have never surrendered their lives to Jesus, and hopefully some new people as well - who are interested in 4:12!


Could you join with us in 2 ways:

1.  Could you encourage people to come?  
Some of the people that you know that have been to 4:12 some time in the past?  Or maybe some new people - who need a good excuse to come?

2.  Could you pray?
Pray that we would see people re-dedicate their lives back to Jesus?  Or surrender their lives for the first time?  Or pray that people whose hearts have grown cold - would give it all to Jesus?


We have two weeks to go - will you join with us?


Can't wait to celebrate with you all!

'This Is Who I Am'


Hungry Hippos

Hunger dictates everything. It doesn't fade into the wind, nor does it pass in a moment. But pure, raw hunger can be the inspiration and motivation for many an action...

Remember that time you left the house on an empty stomach? Or hey, maybe you even skipped lunch too that day?! Come 2/3pm you're CRAVING a nandos right? You've got that mighty pain in the depths of your stomach that just won't leave til you answer it. We've all been there. Jesus too. But His type of hunger looked a little bit different to ours.

Bang in the middle of John 4, Jesus has had a crazy morning. Travelling all the way from Judea to Samaria, John tells us "Tired as He was from the journey, He sat down by the well." (v6) After polishing up His conversation with the Samaritan women, the disciples, as per usual, are asserting that they know best!

"His disciples urged Him, 'Rabbi, eat something." (v31)

However! Although He's probably worked up an appetite, Jesus once again hits us with more than food for thought!

"I have food to eat that you know nothing about... My food is to do the will of Him who sent me and to finish His work..." (v32-34)

Wow! Stay with me here for a second... Is Jesus saying that doing God's will is more important than food? In extreme cases, people have reportedly survived up to 60 days or 44 days without food, like David Blaine's mental glass box stunt in London. But what is certain, without food you're gonna die...

Here's where Jesus is one step ahead. He's not neglecting the importance of food, or a wee fish supper. Like c'mon guys, He's fully God, fully man, the lad knows He's gotta eat. But in that moment His agenda was eternity.
The woman from the well has just returned with tons of people from her town to come see the Messiah. If Jesus had have moved on and cooked lunch elsewhere with the team. He would have missed the evangelistic opportunity which was at hand.

John writes that because of this, "many became believers" (v41)

Thats how important God's will is. Our saviour felt the hunger pain to do the will of God rather than fulfil a requirement to human existence. How much do you hunger for God's will for your life? Is it at the top of your agenda? The very meaning of your existence? Because sometimes, I selfishly pursue my plans for the day, sometimes I push past the life changing opportunities, and even sometimes I think my wants are of upmost importance.

So my friends, what I leave with you is this. Maybe God's will for your today is more than simply surviving. Maybe at school today God wants to change your focus; rather than eating lunch maybe He wants you to sit and chat with that guy that's always alone. Or maybe stay 5 minutes after work and comfort that person who's hurting...

I don't know what God's will is for your today. But what I do know is this;
God wants to use your today to affect someone's forever.

This Is Who I Am

New series at 4:12...

'IMMERSED'


We have an exciting new event starting this Sunday night after church called, 'IMMERSED'.


As christians, we know that we are on a life-long pursuit to knowing and becoming more like Jesus!  We want less of us - and more of Him!  I don't know about you - but I want to be IMMERSED in God, and the things of God, and the presence of God, and the Word of God... you get my point!  
Anybody with me?


IMMERSED will be once a month on a Sunday night after church from 8:30pm - 9:30pm.
Each month will look at a specific topic together... for example our first night we will be looking at how to study the Bible better (or study it at all!)


It will also be age specific... the 2nd Sunday of every month the 6th year + age group will meet.  The 3rd Sunday of every month the 1-5th year will meet.


We would love to see you there!


The first 2 dates are:
Sunday 15th September (8:30pm - 9:30pm)  
IMMERSED +  (6th year +)

Sunday 22nd September (8:30pm - 9:30pm) 
IMMERSED -  (1-5th year)


WHO'S COMING?  :)
