Parable of the lost son. (Luke15 11-32) Step 2: Prepare – Prepare for the Holy Spirit to do his job. Remove the clothing made of skin, separation from God through sin. Sin being defined both as the bad that we do as well as the good that we fail to do. "And we, with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into His likeness with ever increasing glory, which come from the Lord who is Spirit." (2Cor 3:18) Step 3: Wait – Do not fear the wilderness and brace yourself for the long haul…God does not have short - term strategies! "No one has heard, no ear has perceived, no eye has seen any God besides you, who acts on behalf of those who wait for Him."

A life lived in worship, not as AN activity, but as THE activity of living. A worshipper is somebody whose whole being, thoughts and actions, flow out of a life lived with God and for God. Recognising this is so much more than a great church experience, we explore the possibilities for worship during everyday situations. http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/be-engaged http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/sermon-wired-to-worship-4-be-engaged-christopher-baker.mp3 Sun, 27 Sep 2009 19:06:47 GMT Christopher Baker Wired to Worship 17:05 Worship changes us. We become like that which we worship. As we worship God, our lives are transformed into reflections of Him on earth. A life of worship is to live in intimacy with God in such a way that we get to know what God is like, to start to take on that character ourselves. It’s to see as God sees, to feel what He would feel, to do what He would do. It’s to become like Him, to reflect Him on the earth, to bring His Kingdom to the world through the way we live our lives. We begin to realise that every circumstance we face, every situation we find ourselves in, every thought and action is an opportunity to worship God or do the opposite. http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/be-transformed http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/be-transformed.mp3 Sun, 20 Sep 2009 19:02:49 GMT Phil Jackson Wired to Worship 48:24 Do we have a consumer model of worship or a consumed one? We look at an incredible model of consumed worship as Mary of Bethany breaks an alabaster jar of perfume over Jesus (Mark 14). Her worship is prepared in advance, unstoppable in the face of obstruction, genuine and all-out, coming from every part of her being (emotional, physical, intellectual and spiritual). http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/be-consumed http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/be-consumed.mp3 Sun, 13 Sep 2009 14:21:59 GMT Matt Summerfield Wired to Worship 48:52 We all worship something. We’re wired to worship, it’s part of who we are as human beings. What does it mean to worship God? We look at worship as a response to the person and actions of God. As we learn the ways in which God reveals Himself to us, we are inspired to open our eyes to who He is and what He has done. Worship becomes our natural whole-life response to seeing the greatness of God. http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/see-god http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/sermon-wired-to-worship-1-see-god-paul-rigby.mp3 Sun, 06 Sep 2009 18:37:39 GMT Paul Rigby Wired to Worship 30:23 Phil talks about Holiday's, the history of the Jewish holiday of Passover and how God helped Moses discover his Shape and lead his people to safety! http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/holidays http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/holiday.mp3 Sun, 30 Aug 2009 11:15:46 GMT Phil Jackson Shape: discover your identity, unlock your potential 18:12 Finishing the series on SHAPE, we go through 30 practical points about ministry and what HCC believes.

What would you have people do if you wanted to make this earth a bit more like heaven - more the way God intended things to be? What would you change or add? Our relationships, and our work to build real community in the area around us, have the potential to bring something of the Kingdom of God to Hitchin. Our friendships are crucial in offering people who have no experience of God a chance to experience something of who He is. http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/togetherness-gods-way http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/sermon-40-days-of-community-03-togetherness-gods-way-kate.mp3 Sun, 03 May 2009 22:37:50 GMT Kate Middleton Better Together Phase 2: 40 Days of Community relationships,togetherness,friendship 34:22 We all know that we're not perfect. We all know that we make mistakes. We often wear 'masks' to hide our true self from others. Yet Jesus knows everything about us. He gets behind the mask and then gives us an incredible, life-changing invitation to "follow HIM". Jesus wants to show us how to really live - to travel with Him for the rest of our lives. http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/travelling-together http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/sermon-40-days-of-community-02-travelling-together-matt.mp3 Sun, 26 Apr 2009 14:44:13 GMT Matt Summerfield Better Together Phase 2: 40 Days of Community disciples,journey 18:22 Let's prepare for our journey though this series together: look back and remember God's faithfulness; look ahead and celebrate you future; look around - you're part of a community; look inward and prepare spiritually; look up and get ready for a God-encouter! http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/planning-our-journey-together http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/sermon-40-days-of-community-01-planning-our-journey-together-tony.mp3 Sun, 19 Apr 2009 10:04:15 GMT Tony Summerfield Better Together Phase 2: 40 Days of Community 49:27 Why does the resurrection matter? God's hope is about great expectation. The resurrection shows us that Jesus is who He claimed to be, that He has the power He claimed to have and that He does what He promises. Because of this my past can be forgiven, my present can be managed and my future can be secure! http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/hope-alive http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/sermon-easter-2009-hope-alive-tony.mp3 Sun, 12 Apr 2009 20:37:23 GMT Tony Summerfield Easter 2009: Hope Alive hope,alive,resurrection,life,future,forgiveness,security,power 35:02 One of the central characters in the Easter story is Judas. From the perspective of Judas, Good Friday was the most desperate and hopeless situation he could have imagined. How could things have been different if Judas had waited for just three days after the death of Jesus? Could there have been a way back for him?

We must do things well, be perfect, achieve the grade and make the mark! All this can leave us feeling that if we haven’t ‘got there’ yet that we are not any use. This isn’t the way that God thinks about us! Life as a Christian is not about waiting until you have got it all sorted before you can be used - its about living that journey together and supporting each other as we learn what it means to be a ‘new creation’. So what if you look at your life right now and see something you never thought would be part of your journey? Does a wrong turn really have to mean the end of the road? http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/time-to-move-on http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/sermon-better-together-phase-1-session-10-time-to-move-on-kate.mp3 Sun, 05 Apr 2009 10:20:11 GMT Kate Middleton Better Together Phase 1: The church family 26:27 The need for other people is something that is built into our most basic DNA as humans. But making and building really good friendships isn’t easy. How can we learn to care for other people - and allow them to care for us - so that we can experience friendship the way God really intended it? http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/designed-for-friendship http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/sermon-better-together-phase-1-designed-for-friendship-neil.mp3 Sun, 29 Mar 2009 10:18:56 GMT Neil Osmond Better Together Phase 1: The church family 41:15 Coinciding with Mother’s day, this message takes the chance to think about our Mums and what makes them special. What can we learn from the way our Mother’s love us about Gods love and what does the Bible tell us about this very special relationship? http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/heartbeat-of-the-family-mum http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/better-together-phase-1-session-8-heartbeat-of-the-family-mum-phil.mp3 Sun, 22 Mar 2009 10:18:01 GMT Phil Jackson Better Together Phase 1: The church family 20:18 Very often the time we need other people the most is when we are going through hard times. But what causes those things and where do they come from?

But how is listening vital in successful communication? And how can we learn to become really good listeners so that we can be effective in caring for other people as well as for ourselves? http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/dont-talk-listen http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/better-together-phase-1-session-6-dont-talk-listen-matt.mp3 Sun, 08 Mar 2009 08:09:19 GMT Matt Summerfield Better Together Phase 1: The church family 42:00 What we do (and don't!) say can have an impact on people wherever they are on their journey with God. How can we make sure that what we say to people encourages them and moves them closer to God, rather than accidentally having the opposite effect?! http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/encouraging-words http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/better-together-phase-1-session-5-encouraging-word-tony.mp3 Sun, 01 Mar 2009 22:17:50 GMT Tony Summerfield Better Together Phase 1: The church family 44:31 God created us as perfect (Psalm 139:4), so it helps to develop an understanding of the way that we work, the way our maker designed us. This is about understanding not just the way that our body works, but also how our minds and emotions work, and how this links in with our experience of God and our spirituality. Every human was created as a unique individual with great potential, BUT life can take that blank canvass and cover it with graffiti. How does this affect the way we understand ourselves - and other people? http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/we-are-what-we-think Sun, 22 Feb 2009 22:17:03 GMT Matt Summerfield Better Together Phase 1: The church family together,better,care,thinking,emotions Why is it important to care for one another? Why does it matter? Our challenge as Christians is to "take your everyday ordinary life...and place it before God as an offering" (Romans 12:1). In caring for each other, we can take something ordinary and everyday, and with God's help make it extraordinary! http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/caring-for-one-another http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/better-together-phase-1-session-3-caring-for-each-other-kate.mp3 Sun, 15 Feb 2009 08:06:49 GMT Kate Middleton Better Together Phase 1: The church family strands,three,3,cord,care,family,church,together,better 43:26 http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/keys-to-an-effective-church http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/better-together-phase-1-session-1-keys-to-an-effective-church-tony.mp3 Sun, 08 Feb 2009 15:33:03 GMT Tony Summerfield Better Together Phase 1: The church family 42:40 http://www.hcc.org.uk/resources/sermons/keys-to-a-healthy-church http://www.hcc.org.uk/mediafiles/better-together-phase-1-session-1-keys-to-a-healthy-church-tony.mp3 Sun, 01 Feb 2009 15:29:29 GMT Tony Summerfield Better Together Phase 1: The church family body,church,family,better,together 38:58
