The Life and Times of Peter / Nathan Gilbert
This morning we look at the incredible life of Peter up to his denial and then restoration by Jesus. Every choice is a chance and when Peter is given choices he messes up but this doesn't lead to his permanent disqualification. Instead Jesus lovingly restores him with forgiveness a fresh commission.
Sunday 24th March / Palm Sunday
Today is celebrated as Palm Sunday and we are looking at the Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem by Jesus on a Donkey. We look at 3 aspects of the story - how the nature of how Jesus entered Jerusalem displays the nature of His Kingdom, how the Crowd changes their shouts from Hosanna, to Crucify and lastly at how we can have Hope Redeemed at the anticipated cross.
Sunday 17th March / Philippians 4:4-7 / Eliza Jones
We have had the absolute privilege of having Eliza Jones interning with us from @moorlandsteam (Moorlands College) for the last 5 weeks serving in various ministries within the church. Today she shares with us how we present everything causing us anxiety to God and in the exchange we receive a peace that surpasses understanding.
Vision Sunday 2024 // Roots, Shoots & Seeds
This week Nathan set out the 3 priorities for Falmouth Vineyard in 2024.
6th Birthday Celebration
It's our 6th Birthday! Join us as we celebrate all that God has done and look forward to 2024.
Q&A with Dr Laura Neilson
We were really privileged to have Dr Laura Neilson with us for the weekend sharing her experience and wisdom as she leads in Healthcare and the Church. A very inspiring morning (and challenging) morning!
Philippians 4:1-3 - A Community of Reconciliation
The Community of the Kingdom isn’t the absence of conflict – it is the presence of reconciliation. We are called to wage peace following the prince of peace rather than wage war as we see in the world. And we are all called to be peace makers.
Philippians 3:12-21 - "Our citizenship is in heaven"
Our very own Rob Graham shares the word from Philippians chapter 3 where Paul reinforces our identity as citizens of heaven. Because of this citizenship we have access to God and Intimacy with Him, we have a culture of transformation into the likeness of Christ and we have the authority that enables us to live in the reality of the power of God and who he calls us to be.
I consider it loss/rubbish
At the core of all of us – our deepest longing, or overriding need – is to be right with God. Deep down we know that, apart from Jesus, we are not right with God. It’s about Faith in the right thing. Faith in the right person. Faith in Jesus.
Going Deeper and Taking Risks in 2024
How about your Spiritual Life? How about your discipleship? How about your walk with Jesus, your pursuit of the Kingdom of God. What are you Discipleship Targets for 2024?
Philippians 2:19-30
This week, Peter Amoss unpacks Philippians 2:19-30 and explains how the passage gives us a masterclass in what it looks like to serve others.
Philippians 2:12-18 - Faith that Shine Like Stars
This Sunday Morning we looked at an amazing passage describing Paul's encouragement to the Philippians to stay obedient to the Word of God in his absence. He urges them to work out their salvation through every aspect of their lives with fear and trembling - awe and reverence.
Philippians 2:1-11 - Citizens of the Kingdom of God
In this profound chapter we look at how we can value each other higher than ourselves - laying down any priviledge that we had. Paul uses the example of the Incarnation of Jesus and describes his glory veiled and hidden by taking on humanity.
Philippians 1:27-30 - Citizens of the Kingdom of God
There are three sections to this talk from Philippians 1:27-30 starting with followers of Jesus living as citizens of the Kingdom of God. Then we look at Paul's encouragement to stand firm with one another in unity and the Holy Spirit in the face of opposition. Lastly we look at suffering as a gift, a grace, granted to us to live our lives as expression of the lift of Jesus.
Philippians 1:19-27 - To live is Christ, to die is gain...
Paul writes this letter to the Church in Philippi from prison, in chains, and then uses this opportunity to spread the good news of Jesus. He comes to the challenging conclusion that if he lives - his life is dedicated to Christ and if he dies then he stands to gain by being with Jesus. The apostle Paul is "All In" are we?
Philippians 1:12-19 - The Most Important Thing
Paul writes this letter to the Church in Philippi from prison, in chains, and then uses this opportunity to spread the good news of Jesus. We look at modern day persecution of Christians, what is most important to us and then what Paul understood by the gospel.
Philippians 1:3-11 - Works in Progress
We are all works in progress - we are the work, God is working and this is done in God's perfect timescale. If we are welcomed into the Kingdom of God through grace clearly displayed on the cross then how do we walk on this path of grace?
Introduction to Phillipians
We shared the exciting news of our new Evening Service - launching on the 1st of October! We also started our new sermon series on the book of Philippians.

Holy Spirit that Speaks
Does God speak today is the question we'll start to unpack during this talk from our morning service. What is the role of prophetic words for the life of a follower of Jesus now?

Holy Spirit the Revealer

Palm Sunday
It's Palm Sunday and in the preparation for Easter we look at how our story is that we have chosen a way of life that rejects God and his way of peace. His way of flourishing. Sin has taken root in our hearts, in our relationships, in our society. The story of Easter is that price being paid - a substitution - Jesus paid our price to redeem us. To release us from slavery to sin. From the weight of shame. This freedom that he bought with his life - this allows us to come back into alignment with his way of peace, peace with ourselves, peace with each other, peace with God and peace with the world.
For God So Loved the World
In the second part of our Gospel Series Andy unpacks one of the most famous verses in the Bible - John 3:16. The gospel starts with God's love directed towards us. God breaks into our personal brokeness and the brokeness of the world by intervening, through Jesus, in love.
Generous living starts with generous giving
In the last of our 3 talks on vision we talk about generosity. In this talk Nathan outlines a Biblical view of giving and the invitation for us all to be generous.
Vision Sunday 2023
Every year we set out the priorities that we feel God has called us to for the year. During this talk, Ruth and Nathan outline the Vision Statement to highlight what we feel God is reminding us of. It's about Authenticity, vulnerability and community!

Becoming a Person of Influence
It was great to have Naomi Sission share with us on Sunday on how we can become people of influence by being courageous, authentic and humble.
The Gospel - Part 1
We really want to spend the run up to Easter thinking about the gospel. What is the Gospel? What isn’t the gospel? Why is it good news? Is it good news for everyone? Where does it start and where does it end? Are we meant to share it? Is it still relevant? In this talk we look at Mark Chapter 1 and Jesus' announcement of the Good News - the Kingdom of God is near.
Prayer Weekend Introduction
We are really excited to launch our dedicated Prayer Room and are kicking everything off with a weekend of Prayer. In this talk, Ruth and Nathan give an introduction to the power of prayer in the hope that we revolutionise our prayer lives!
Prayer Panel Interviews

Advent Hope
It's the first Sunday of Advent! That detail may have passed you by but it's a great opportunity to focus on the theme of Hope. In this week's talk Nathan looks at how we wait for, not only Christmas and the birth of Jesus, but the return of Jesus at the second coming. We wait in prayerful expectastion, hopeful anticipation and practically hope.
Daniel 7
We continue our series on the book of Daniel. It's an incredible book about living in exile, seeking the peace and prosperity of the city we find ourselves in. This week the theme and style of the Book of Daniel changes. Instead of a narrative, we have Daniel's dreams that he is unable to understand. What can we learn from the sequence of beasts? What do they teach us about the nature of empires and the beast we find within ourselves?
Daniel 6
We continue our series on the book of Daniel. It's an incredible book about living in exile, seeking the peace and prosperity of the city we find ourselves in. One of the most famous stories in the Bible - Daniel and the Lion's Den! This morning we look at Prayer as resistance, Persecution tests Faith and the Power of God to Save. Daniel's character is tested and he is found to be above reproach. He is delivered by God from the lions and from his accusers. We finish by looking at the parallels with Jesus and lead into Communion.
Child Dedications
This is a slightly different Sunday and a slightly different talk than usual! We had the privilege of dedicating 5 of the children in the life of the Church on the 23rd of October.
Daniel 5
We continue our series on the book of Daniel. This week we look at the characters of Balshazzar and Daniel, and what we can learn from the choices they made. Daniel is an incredible book about living in exile, seeking the peace and prosperity of the city we find ourselves in.
Daniel 4
On Sunday 2nd October, Jon White continued our series on the book of Daniel. It's an incredible book about living in exile, seeking the peace and prosperity of the city we find ourselves in. This week we look at the rise and fall of Nebuchadnezzar and the danger of pride and the antidote of worship.
Daniel 3
On Sunday 25th September, we continued our series on the book of Daniel. It's an incredible book about living in exile, seeking the peace and prosperity of the city we find ourselves in. This week our heroes take a stand to and will not bow down to the idol of Gold. We look at the concept of modern day idols and also how God is with us during the hardest times.
Daniel 2
On Sunday 18th, we continued our series on the book of Daniel. It's an incredible book about living in exile, seeking the peace and prosperity of the city we find ourselves in. Daniel interprets the King's dream and in doing so highlights how everything we have is give to us by God.
Daniel 1
On September 4th 2022, we started a new series on the book of Daniel starting in Chapter 1. It's an incredible book about living in exile, seeking the peace and prosperity of the city they find themselves in. It's about speaking to authority, having integrity and living with God as our highest authority wherever we find ourselves.
Encouragement - Part 2
On Sunday 17th July, Nathan shared some more thoughts on Hebrews Chapter 10. How can we encourage one another? We look at the 3 "Let us..." invitations in the passage on how we can practically be encouraged and encourage one another.
