Lump

The next Oxygen installment is tomorrow and the theme is Lump. It's based on the Prodigal Son, and the fact that God will welcome us home whatever we do.

We've almost made it to four services (of the original six planned) and we're feeling like it should carry on after the six. Feedback has been really positive, and I really feel God has used Oxygen to touch the lives of some who are struggling, new to faith or just tired of church.

Oxygen is really internally focussed at the moment - trying to attract existing church members from MBC. However, we have a much wider vision that ultimately will look at pulling in non-Christians from elsewhere in the community.

But for now, we're happy to get into the groove and learn how to follow God's lead in creating a unique, peaceful and engaging service.
