Knowledge of his name
What does that mean?
The name was special and significant. It represents the character and nature of the person. The name stands for all that God is, what He is like. And the key is knowledge of Him. Not intellectual but experiential. What must our response be? Hold on to him! Hold fast to him. Hold on to him for dear life. That’s trust. That’s faith.

Christianity and Cancer
Former Blue Peter host and Sky Sport presenter Simon Thomas tells Songs of Praise's Sean Featcher about the deep Christian faith he and his late wife Gemma shared, why he promised her that he would not give upon his faith, knowing that it would be the biggest test he would ever have and how his faith has given him strength to sustain it.
He says the song that has inspired him has to be the uplifting ‘In Christ Alone’.

Prayer Request or Praise Report
If you have a prayer request or want to tell us about answered prayer, please do so here.
We Value the Power of Prayer
“Supernaturally Transforming Lives and Circumstances”
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” – Philippians 4:6 NIV
As a church we have numerous stories of people who have had prayer answered and seen incredible miracles take place. We have stories of; miraculous healings, miraculous protection from danger and harm, children being born when it seemed impossible, hospitals and orphan’s villages being built in Haiti and many, many more examples that God still answers prayer today and miracles do happen.

Join a Team
“Our Church is not built on the talents and gifts of a few but on the sacrifice of many.” –Brian Houston
The Vine church is as effective as our people. The greatness of our church relies on the heart of our people and their willingness to serve others. Our church functions because ordinary people give their time, talents and energy willingly and cheerfully to serve others.
Joining a team is an excellent way to get connected into the life of our church, make friends and help the church to grow. In fact the growth in health and size of our church depends on every member serving and “doing their own special work”:
“…as each part does its own special work, it helps the other parts grow, so that the whole body is growing and full of love.”
Eph.4:16 NLT

Stronger
Stronger is a night for the men of the Vine Church to come together.
Life for men can be tough and there are many challenges. Life can feel sometimes like climbing a very high mountain that can be tiring and never ending.
But you were not designed to climb your mountain alone. Climbing alone is dangerous and lonely. To successfully climb higher you need endurance, the right tools and companions.
At Stronger, we will grow stronger together as we grow, learn and share together.
