This site is designed to equip service leaders to craft meetings that by their shape, their contents and their tone proclaim the gospel of Christ, build his body in the unity of the spirit and bring honour and glory to God. On this website we would like to help you reflect biblically and historically on just how good church can be, and give you the resources you need to put this vision into practice.
You may be keen to go straight to the practical guidelines or resources sections, but take time to work through the biblical and historical sections, so that you are clear about God's will for our gatherings and understand how Christians have sought to put biblical teaching into practice across the centuries.
