God is Worthy (Chichester) | Songs of Worship | Joe Leach

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 11 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0000

God is exclusively worthy of our worship in every moment and in every place. He is matchless in his might and his mercy. We want to be a people who worship God faithfully and passionately from our hearts.

Hallelujah Psalms (Havant) | Songs of Worship | Mel Hall

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 11 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0000

The Halal Psalms were sung by Jewish people at Passover and are likely to be what Jesus sang at the Last Supper, before his arrest and crucifixion. We look at what they teach us about God’s character and how Jesus acted in difficult times.

To Those In Need (Chichester) | GC Priorities | Steve Blaber

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 04 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0000

In Luke 4, we read that in the synagogue in Nazareth, Jesus read Isaiah’s prophecy from chapter 61: “to bring good news to the poor”. We see why this is so and as Christ’s ambassadors we are to reach out to those in need in the same way as Christ did.

To Those In Need (Havant) | GC Priorities | Thomas Bishop

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 04 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0000

What does God really want from us? As we look at God’s heart for the vulnerable, we ask who God is calling each of us to notice, love and serve in Havant, and why it starts with what Jesus has done for us, not what we do for him.

To the Next Gen (Chichester) | GC Priorities | Joe Leach

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 27 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000

God’s word says there is immense and particular power when children praise his name. He calls his people to tell the next generation about him and all he has done. We want to stir our whole church to help the next generation to live gospel-centred lives.

To the Next Gen (Havant) | GC Priorities | Thomas Bishop

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 27 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Every generation needs to hear what God has done. It is both the privilege and the responsibility of God’s people – Christian parents and the Church – to teach, demonstrate and encourage the next generation to know who God is and what he has done for us.

Over the Road (Chichester) | GC Priorities | Tony Dark

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 20 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Jesus tells us we are to pray, go, take up our authority in Him and take courage in the power of the Holy Spirit. However, Jesus needs to be our treasure to fulfil the call on our lives.

Over the Seas (Havant) | GC Priorities | Joe Leach

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 20 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000

The call to take the gospel to other nations is not a small part God’s plan. Jesus describes his church as ‘a house of prayer for all nations’. At Grace Church, we feel God has put on our heart to make taking the gospel over the seas one of our priorities.

Over the Road (Havant) | GC Priorities | Thomas Bishop

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 13 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Jesus once told a story about a man who crossed the road to help someone. Taking the gospel and sharing the love of Jesus to the people right outside our door is one of the priorities God has put on our heart at Grace Church.

Doing Things God’s Way (Havant) | Ruth | Thomas Bishop

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 06 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000

There are moments when doing the right thing looks like it will cost us the very thing we want most. Boaz had a shortcut in his hands and refused to take it knowing God’s way is always better, the same is true for us today.

The Great Redeemer (Chichester) | Ruth | Tony Dark

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 06 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000

God is faithful and sovereign over our lives, both those outside of our control and those within it, even those mistakes that we all make. There is a bigger picture which is far better than we can imagine. All leads to Jesus, the Great Redeemer.

Faithful With Nothing, Faithful With Everything | Ruth | Thomas Bishop

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 23 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

When life empties us out, it can feel as though God himself is against us. Naomi came home to Bethlehem certain of it. But God was working in the silence through the circumstances in Naomi’s life to bring her (and us) future hope and redemption.

Ruth Chapter 1 (Chichester) | Ruth | Jenny Dark

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 16 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

The beginning of the book of Ruth reminds us not to rely on our own perceptions and lose sight of the goodness of God. We need to trust God’s promises and remind ourselves that God is always at work even when we can’t see it.

Redemptive God (Havant) | Ruth | Ola Nosiru

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 16 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

God is a redemptive God. He is able to redeem us back, no matter how far we may seem to have gone. God brought Naomi and Ruth back at the perfect time to redeem into His will, and ultimately align into the genealogy of His son, Jesus Christ.

The God Who Loves to Be Gracious (Chichester) | Jonah | Jonathan May

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 09 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

When God shows grace to the Ninevites, Jonah is furious. But God uses a plant and a worm to teach Jonah that he is the God who loves to be gracious – to everyone.

God’s Compassion and Jonah’s Lesson (Havant) | Jonah | Guy Barton

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 09 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Jonah stubbornly holds on to his judgmental attitude towards the Ninevites even though God has shown them compassion. Is there a lesson in this for me?

Another Chance (Chichester) | Jonah | Ola Nosiru

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 02 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Jonah was given a second chance to deliver God’s message, just as we are given many chances to change. God freely gives us the Holy Spirit who helps us. God requires us to be obedient and not take his mercy for granted. His mercies are new every day!

How Great? (Havant) | Jonah | Joel Mousley-Smith

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 02 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000

In Jonah, many things are described as big or great. Great emotions, great cities, great wickedness, great fish, great storms. We find that despite these ‘great’ things, our God is far greater than them all and abounding in love, mercy and compassion.

Mercy Wins (Chichester) | Jonah | Derek Gibbs

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 26 Jul 2026 10:00:25 +0000

Jonah experiences the mercy of God from inside a fish but has he learnt anything or is there a good reason why he struggles? Discovering how mercy triumphs over judgement can change our story.

Salvation Comes From the Lord (Havant) | Jonah | Thomas Bishop

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 26 Jul 2026 10:00:31 +0000

We all have moments when we feel far from God and Jonah discovered that running from God’s call on his life didn’t work. Facing death in a storm sent by God, God reminds him that grace is always there when we reach the bottom.

Mercy Without Borders (Havant) | Jonah | Neil Hall

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 19 Jul 2026 10:00:50 +0000

What kind of God do we meet in the opening chapter of Jonah? Discover a God whose mercy refuses to stay inside the borders we draw—a mercy that reaches His enemies, pursues the runaway, and ultimately reaches us through Jesus.

To Be a Servant of Christ (Chichester) | Steve Blaber

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 12 Jul 2026 10:00:16 +0000

Paul encourages us to offer up our bodies as living sacrifices, our lives are to be an act of worship as servants of Christ. The passage amplifies what this means, explaining how God has given us all gifts that are to be used to serve God and one another.

Learning Joyful Obedience (Havant) | Thomas Bishop

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 12 Jul 2026 10:00:58 +0000

Ever feel like God’s commands are just one more burden to carry? We look at what it means when John says Jesus commands aren’t burdensome, and how faith enables obedience to bring us joy.

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 05 Jul 2026 10:00:34 +0000

As we finish our series on The Lord’s Prayer, we come to the verses “lead us not into temptation but deliver us from the evil one”. Can God really tempt us? And, how does the evil one affect our lives?

Lead Us Not Into Temptation (Chichester) | The Lord’s Prayer | Ashley Kuchanny

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 28 Jun 2026 10:00:56 +0000

Jesus teaches us to pray, “Forgive us our debts.” We explore what our debt is and how a just God can forgive guilty sinners through the cross, and discover the cost of unforgiveness as well as the freedom that forgiving others brings.

Forgive Us (Chichester) | The Lord’s Prayer | Sally Clark

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 28 Jun 2026 10:00:18 +0000

The ‘grievance culture’ we live in tells us that there is always someone to blame when problems arise. But what if forgiveness was the radical solution this world needs? And how does accepting Jesus’ forgiveness change us and those around us?

Give Us Today Our Daily Bread (Havant) | The Lord’s Prayer | Thomas Bishop

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 21 Jun 2026 10:00:36 +0000

So much of our fear and anxiety is about the future, worrying whether we’ll have all we need to get through life. Jesus teaches that the Father provides both ‘bread’ and grace for each day, not only for our physical needs but also our deepest need of all.

Give Us (Chichester) | The Lord’s Prayer | Ola Nosiru

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 21 Jun 2026 10:00:35 +0000

The first part of the Lord’s Prayer is important for shaping our request for daily bread It is a great comfort that God invites us to come and ask Him for what we need, but also that He hears us as we pray.

Your Kingdom Come (Chichester) | The Lord’s Prayer | Andy Garforth

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 10:00:49 +0000

Jesus was showing God’s heart when he prayed that God’s kingdom would come to earth. It is not like the kingdoms of this world, but instead calls on us to surrender our will to God so that He might reign in our hearts.

Your Will Be Done (Chichester) | The Lord’s Prayer | Tony Dark

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 10:00:10 +0000

God’s will is both sovereign and certain. Through every trial, God can be trusted, and whatever comes our way, He will work for our good. As we look at Jesus in the garden, we see the best example of surrendering our will to the Father’s.

Your Will Be Done (Havant) | The Lord’s Prayer | Mel Hall

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 10:00:40 +0000

Your Kingdom Come (Havant) | The Lord’s Prayer | Thomas Bishop

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 07 Jun 2026 10:00:48 +0000

In our Lord’s Prayer series, we look at the line “your kingdom come.” We trace the kingdom of God through the Bible, see how we enter through Jesus, and live between the kingdom’s “now and not yet,” looking ahead to Christ’s return, when it comes in full.

Hallowed Be Your Name (Chichester) | The Lord’s Prayer | Tony Dark

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 31 May 2026 10:00:50 +0000

Firstly, this prayer is a petition for the nations to honour and glorify a mighty, majestic and holy God, and secondly for us to be in awe of God.

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 31 May 2026 10:00:11 +0000

The many names of God portray his immensity and holiness and allow us to understand just who it is that we meet with in our times of prayer. As we pray “Hallowed be Your Name” we recognise and revere the holiness of our loving and just Father.

Our Father in Heaven (Havant) | The Lord’s Prayer | Thomas Bishop

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 24 May 2026 10:00:45 +0000

Before we ask God for anything, Jesus teaches us who we are talking to. Discover why this changes everything, how we come to truly know him, and how incredible this relationship can become when we grasp who God is and how much he loves us.

Our Father in Heaven (Chichester) | The Lord’s Prayer | Joe Leach

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 24 May 2026 10:00:56 +0000

How do you approach God? Jesus’ prayer in Matthew 6 is a great encouragement to come boldly into God’s presence through prayer, guarding against both hesitation and presumption by nurturing a heartfelt desire to spend time with our heavenly Father.

Praying in the Spirit (Havant) | Ephesians | Thomas Bishop

As we complete the book of Ephesians, Paul reminds us to pray continually and in all kinds of ways. Encouraging us that prayer is both the way that we build our relationship with God as well as a weapon we use to enable us to overcome our trials.

Prayer and Mission (Chichester) | Ephesians | Tony Dark

The Full Armour of God (Chichester) | Ephesians | Steve Blaber

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 10 May 2026 10:00:30 +0000

Paul talks of Christian life like a battle, but who is the enemy and what are his schemes? We need to understand the battle ground in the knowledge that God has equipped us with all that we need in Christ to live in the victory that he has won!

Spiritual Warfare (Havant) | Ephesians | Jonathan May

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 10 May 2026 10:00:32 +0000

Paul tells us that if we are a Christian, we are in a spiritual battle. And although we face a mighty enemy, we have an even mightier ally.

Serve Wholeheartedly (Chichester) | Ephesians | Joe Leach

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 03 May 2026 10:00:57 +0000

We don’t become Christians by the way we conduct our relationships; but the way people conduct our relationships should be redefined when we become Christians. Whether in the home or the workplace, the gospel calls believers to serve wholeheartedly.

Serve Wholeheartedly (Havant) | Ephesians | Tony Dark

This Mystery is Profound (Chichester) | Ephesians | Joe Leach

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 26 Apr 2026 10:00:52 +0000

The Bible’s vision for marriage in Ephesians 5 is both more demanding and more beautiful than we might think. It is demanding because it is built on self-denial and self-sacrifice, and beautiful because it is all about Christ’s sacrifice for his church.

Marriage and Mystery (Havant) | Ephesians | Thomas Bishop

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 26 Apr 2026 10:00:17 +0000

Marriage is one of God’s greatest gifts, but it points to something far bigger than itself. In Ephesians 5, Paul shows us what healthy, flourishing, Christ-centred marriage actually looks like, and why it matters to every single one of us, married or not.

Be Filled with the Spirit (Havant) | Ephesians | Joe Leach

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 19 Apr 2026 10:00:50 +0000

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 12 Apr 2026 10:00:35 +0000

This preach is a reminder that, as believers, we should allow the love of God to be expressed in our lifestyle. It should be the motive and driving force behind all we do, as we have been shown the deepest love by Christ. “God is Love and Love is God”.

He Is Risen: Evidence, Encounter and Hope (Havant) | Thomas Bishop

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 05 Apr 2026 10:00:37 +0000

The crowd at the cross heard Jesus quote a psalm written a thousand years earlier that predicted his death in precise detail, and yet all they saw was a dying man crying for help. What do we do with evidence when our hearts aren’t ready to receive it?

Christ is Risen! (Chichester) | Tony Dark

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 05 Apr 2026 10:00:09 +0000

On Easter Sunday, we’ve had the sadness of Friday, the silence of Saturday and now we can celebrate that Jesus is risen on Sunday. The resurrection is central to the gospel, but what difference does that make to our lives today?

At the Cross | Joe Leach

Healthy Eyes (Chichester) | Joe Leach

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 22 Mar 2026 10:00:11 +0000

Having unhealthy eyes has a negative impact on all of life and Jesus used this as a metaphor for our relationship with money. We see clearly when we look to him and treasure him above all else.

Putting on the New Self (Havant) | Ephesians | Thomas Bishop

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 22 Mar 2026 10:30:26 +0000

What is your true identity? Paul in Ephesians 4 makes it clear there are only two options – in Christ or outside of Christ. When we know who we are in Jesus we discover that he also gives us the power to live a life that is ‘worthy’ of him.

How to Change (Chichester) | Ephesians | Tim Goodge

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 15 Mar 2026 10:00:40 +0000

Each One of Us (Chichester) | Ephesians | Joe Leach

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 08 Mar 2026 10:00:59 +0000

The unity of the church runs much deeper than we realise and within that unity, Jesus has given diverse gifts to his people. As unity grows and every member exercises their diverse gifts to bless the body, the church will grow to maturity in Christ.

Each One of Us (Havant) | Ephesians | Tony Dark

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 08 Mar 2026 10:30:55 +0000

The Mystery of the Gospel Revealed (Havant) | Ephesians | Thomas Bishop

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 22 Feb 2026 10:30:19 +0000

Paul is writing from prison, yet he’s full of confidence in God’s purposes. We explore how the gospel was always part of an eternal plan, how God is sovereign over every circumstance of our lives, and how the church is the very display of his wisdom.

Fellow Citizens (Chichester) | Ephesians | Joe Leach

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 15 Feb 2026 10:00:24 +0000

God’s people, the church, are one new humanity, Christ’s body, God’s household, citizens of God’s kingdom and living stones in God’s dwelling. We were far from God and foreigners to his people. But in Christ, we are near to God and included in his people.

Fellow Citizens (Havant) | Ephesians | Mel Hall

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 15 Feb 2026 10:30:03 +0000

Paul helps us to remember that without Christ, we were without hope. But now because of Jesus’ death, which acted as a wrecking ball to every barrier man has ever built, we can approach God personally and we are united as one body.

Every Spiritual Blessing (Chichester) | Ephesians | Joe Leach

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 25 Jan 2026 10:00:04 +0000

Every Spiritual Blessing (Havant) | Ephesians | Ola Nosiru

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 25 Jan 2026 10:30:49 +0000

The Faithful in Christ Jesus (Chichester) | Ephesians | Joe Leach

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 18 Jan 2026 10:00:24 +0000

It is very easy to reduce church to the visible and practical, but the Bible never does this. Ephesians gives us a far grander vision of who/what the church is and then calls the church into living lives in keeping with that grand and beautiful identity.

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 30 Nov 2025 10:30:13 +0000

The Storm That Softens the Soil (Havant) | Thomas Bishop

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 09 Nov 2025 10:30:17 +0000

Why do some hearts receive the gospel whilst others reject it? Jesus teaches that it is down to the soil – the human heart. Pain and suffering is often God’s way of softening our hearts so the gospel can take root and produce an abundant harvest.

When Paul defends himself to the mob in Jerusalem, he doesn’t produce a legal argument, declare his innocence or even show contempt. Instead, he respectfully tells them his story about how Jesus changed his life. We should be prepared to do the same.

Eagerly Desire to Prophesy (Havant) | Acts | Steve Blaber

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 26 Oct 2025 10:30:18 +0000

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 05 Oct 2025 10:30:20 +0000

info@wearegrace.uk (Grace Church Bognor Regis, Chichester & Havant) — Sun, 28 Sep 2025 10:00:11 +0000

We live in an increasingly polarising world where enraging others seems to take over engaging others in healthy conversations. Acts 18 has much to contribute on how Christians might respond to this situation and speak the gospel into this cultural moment.
