Rebuilding the Church in the Midst of a Chaotic World

Mark Sayers

Tuesday 31st May 2.30-3.30pm

For much of recent history, individuals and institutions could plan, execute, and flourish with their visions of a better world. Volatile, complex forces could be addressed and confronted with planning and management. But crisis is a great revealer. It knocks us off our thrones. It uncovers the weaknesses in our strategies and brings to light our myths and idols. Our past strategies run aground, smashed by unpredictable and chaotic waves. Yet, in the midst of the chaos of a crisis comes opportunity. The history of the Church tells us that crisis always precedes renewal and the framework of renewal offers us new ways forward.

Search Me and Know Me: The Power of Confession to Birth Revival

Tyler Staton

Wednesday 1st June 4-5pm

Confession and repentance have grown increasingly privatised and unpracticed in the modern, Western church.  But what if confession isn’t a white flag but a victory cry? And what if repentance is not an admission of defeat but a weapon of the Spirit? Confession, the simple, humble act of coming just as we are before God and one another, is not a primitive, religious trope but the very spark that lights revival.
