Church... The Southside Way - The Semi-Circle

January 21, 2018 Speaker: Ian Campbell Mark 1:15-17 As we enter 2018 we do so with great excitement looking forward to a move to Main Street. In a different setting with different surroundings, different facilities and many different opportunities some of us will feel tremendously empowered and some will feel quite daunted! For all of us there needs to be a grounding in our understanding of who we are as a church and a movement. So we will spend the last teaching series here on Derry to be reminded of our calling as a church as we review and embed our vision, mission and discipleship values. This Sunday we will explore the meaning of the semi-circle - the vine and branches lesson apart from which Jesus says we can do nothing! It seems quite obvious then, that we must understand this dynamic in our lives or we'll be bound to "do nothing" effectively as his followers.
