Sunday Sermon | The Courage to Tell Your Story | Acts 26
What does it take to speak boldly about your faith, even when others think you're crazy?
In Acts 26, Paul stands before kings and governors, sharing the story of his life-changing encounter with Jesus. Nick explores the power of personal testimony, the importance of remembering and retelling our stories, and the courage to follow God's calling.
From darkness to light, from fear to faith, we're challenged to consider our own story and whether we're ready to share it.
Could you tell your story of faith in just one minute?

Extra Slice | Faith, Culture and the God Who Is Near – Extended Edition | Acts 17
How do we communicate the Christian faith in different cultures while remaining faithful to the gospel?
In this extended edition of Extra Slice, Nick returns to Acts 17 and Paul's encounter with the philosophers of Athens, exploring the challenges and opportunities of sharing the good news of Jesus in a world of different beliefs and ideas.
Along the way, Nick reflects on Paul's missionary journeys, the importance of contextualising our faith, and the tension between embracing culture and allowing the gospel to transform it.
He also explores the different understandings of God held by the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers, and why the Christian understanding of God as both transcendent and intimately involved in his creation matters so much.
And there's a challenge for the Church today: are we content simply to discuss good ideas, or are we prepared to put our faith into action?
A thoughtful and wide-ranging exploration of mission, theology and what it means to proclaim Jesus as Lord.

Extra Slice | Speaking Their Language – Home Group Edition | Acts 17
How can we share our faith in ways that people can understand?
In this Home Group Edition of Extra Slice, Nick explores how Paul adapted his approach when speaking to different audiences, and what that might teach us about sharing the good news of Jesus today.
Drawing on Acts 17 and Paul's encounter with the philosophers in Athens, Nick reflects on the culture of our churches, the importance of communicating faith in ways that connect with others, and how our understanding of God shapes our prayer life.
Questions for discussion:
How have you adapted the way you share your faith with different people? What have you emphasised, or perhaps emphasised less, to help communicate the gospel?
How do you understand God's relationship with the world? How does that understanding affect the way you pray?
Whether you're listening with your home group or reflecting individually, we hope this episode encourages some thoughtful conversations.

Sunday Sermon | Your Story Matters | Acts 21:37–22:15
Your Story Matters
There's power in your story, even if you don't think it's particularly remarkable.
Continuing our series through Acts, Rev Rob Cromwell explores how Paul used his personal testimony to share the good news of Jesus, rather than relying on theological arguments.
Drawing on his own family's journey of faith, Rob reflects on how God works through people, relationships and everyday experiences, often in ways we only recognise when we look back.
Our testimony isn't simply the story of how we came to faith. It's the continuing story of God's presence and work in our lives.
What is the reason for the hope that you have? And what story would you tell?

Sunday Sermon | Knowing God in a Busy World | Acts 17:22–34
How do we share our faith in a world where people aren't necessarily against God – they're just too busy to think about Him?
This week at St George's, Nick takes us to ancient Athens, where Paul finds himself surrounded by philosophers, thinkers and people searching for meaning.
Through Acts 17:22–34, we explore what we can learn from Paul's approach: meeting people where they are, listening before speaking, and finding ways to share the good news of Jesus in everyday conversations.
And there's a reminder for us all – God isn't distant or unknown. He has made Himself known through Jesus Christ, and He invites us to know Him too.
Bible reading: Acts 17:22–34
Recorded at St George's Church, Wilton, Taunton.

Home Group Extra Slice | Faith, Grace & the Heart of God | Acts 15
What does it mean to be fully known by God? And how do we experience His grace in our everyday lives?
In this shorter, discussion-focused edition of Extra Slice, Nick explores Acts 15 and the questions facing the early Church as Jewish and Gentile believers discovered what it meant to follow Jesus together.
Through three questions, we're invited to reflect on our shared roots with Judaism, what the Bible means when it speaks about the human heart, and the extraordinary gift of God's grace.
Designed especially for home groups, but just as useful for personal reflection, this edition offers a starting point for some meaningful conversations.
Listen, reflect and explore together!
Where does our faith come from? And what does it really mean to belong to God's family?
In this extended edition of Extra Slice, Nick takes us a little further into the book of Acts, exploring Paul's first missionary journey with Barnabas before returning to the big questions raised in Acts 15.
From the importance of knowing our Christian roots and passing faith on to the next generation, to the value of healthy disagreement within the Church, there's plenty to get us thinking.
And at the heart of it all is a powerful reminder: there are no second-class Christians. In Jesus, we all belong.
So whether you're out walking, driving, or simply enjoying a quiet moment, join Nick for a deeper dive into Scripture, with his usual reflections, honesty and humour!

Sunday Sermon | Nothing But Jesus | Acts 15:1–12
When the early Church began to grow, it faced some difficult questions. Who could belong? What rules should people follow? And what was truly essential?
In this week's sermon, Rev Nick Griffin explores Acts 15 and the moment the Church had to work out how to welcome new believers without placing unnecessary barriers in their way.
From culture shock and church committees to the importance of grace, Nick challenges us to consider whether we've allowed our own traditions and preferences to distract us from the heart of the Gospel.
Salvation is a gift. Belonging to God is a gift. And Jesus is at the centre of it all.

Extra Slice (Extended Edition) | Encouragement, Faith & Life's Big Questions | Acts 11
Fancy going a little deeper? Join Nick for an extended edition of Extra Slice as we continue our journey through the book of Acts.
Picking up on Keith and Carmen's Sunday sermons, Nick explores the remarkable growth of the early Church, the importance of Antioch and the wonderful example of Barnabas – a man whose encouragement helped others find the courage to step out in faith.
Along the way, Nick digs into some fascinating questions. What does biblical prophecy really mean? How do encouragement and teaching work together? And why does God sometimes rescue people from suffering while others, equally faithful, face tragedy?
From the spread of the Gospel to Peter's miraculous escape from prison, there's plenty to explore, reflect on and perhaps even wrestle with.
So settle down with a cuppa and join Nick for a longer Extra Slice!
Short on time? There's also a 7-minute Home Group edition available, with questions for discussion and personal reflection.

Extra Slice (Home Group Edition) | The Power of Encouragement | Acts 11
This week, Nick brings us a shorter, 7-minute edition of Extra Slice, perfect for Home Groups, small group discussions or a little personal reflection.
Exploring Acts 11, we discover how the early Church continued to grow despite persecution, the importance of Antioch in spreading the Gospel, and the wonderful example of Barnabas – the son of encouragement.
Nick leaves us with some questions to ponder:
Why did persecution cause the Church to grow rather than disappear?
Who are the Barnabases in your life?
How can you be a source of encouragement to others?
A short slice with plenty to think and talk about!
Prefer a longer listen? There's also an extended 30-minute edition of Extra Slice available.

Sunday Sermon | Seeing Grace in the Mess | Acts 11:19-26 & 13:1-3
Same Bible passage, two different perspectives!
This Sunday, both our 9.30am and 11am congregations explored Acts 11:19–26 and 13:1–3, each hearing a different reflection on the growth of the early Church.
In this sermon from our 9.30am service, Revd Carmen Cromwell takes us to Antioch, where faith was spreading, boundaries were being crossed and God was doing something extraordinary.
Through the example of Barnabas, Carmen challenges us to step outside our comfort zones, embrace change and recognise God's grace at work, even when things don't look quite how we expected.
With personal stories, humour and some thought-provoking reflections, Carmen reminds us that God's work doesn't always look the way we imagine.
🎧 Why not listen to both sermons? Keith Powell also explores these passages in his sermon from our 11am service, offering another perspective on the same readings.

Sunday Sermon | Be an Encourager! | Acts 11:19-26 & 13:1-3
Are you a radiator or a drainer?
In this week's sermon, Keith Powell explores Acts 11:19–26 and Acts 13:1–3, looking at the extraordinary growth of the early Church, the power of the Holy Spirit and the inspiring example of Barnabas – the 'Son of Encouragement'.
Keith reminds us that we don't need to be extraordinary people to make a difference. God calls each of us to share His love, encourage others and be willing to follow wherever He leads.
With stories from our Big Weekend, a few laughs and some thought-provoking challenges, Keith asks a simple but powerful question:
Who might God be asking you to encourage today?

Extra Slice | Crossing Barriers – Jesus is Lord of All | Acts 10
This week on Extra Slice, Nick continues our journey through Acts, digging deeper into Acts 10 and the extraordinary story of Peter and Cornelius.
What happens when God asks us to cross boundaries that feel deeply ingrained? Nick explores Peter’s vision, the cultural barriers between Jews and Gentiles, and the moment Peter begins to grasp just how wide the good news of Jesus really is.
We also think about those who might believe, pray or have a sense of God but remain on the edges of church life; what it means to shape our everyday lives around our Christian identity; and why Peter’s declaration that “God shows no partiality” is such a significant moment.
And ultimately, it comes back to the heart of the gospel: Jesus is Lord.
If Jesus really is Lord of all, what does that mean for the way we spend our time, our money and our energy — and the way we live the life God has given us?
Grab yourself an Extra Slice and join us.

Sunday Sermon | God Has No Favourites | Acts 10:34–48
What happens when God starts breaking down the boundaries of who we think belongs?
In Acts 10, Peter finds himself in the home of Cornelius — a Roman centurion and someone he would never have expected to be part of God’s story.
But the message is clear: God has no favourites.
This week, Nick explores a story of unexpected welcome, the movement of the Holy Spirit, and a Gospel that reaches beyond the people and places we might expect.
Wherever you’ve come from, wherever you’ve been, whatever you’ve done — there is a place for you.

Extra Slice | Do We All Need a Damascus Road? | Acts 9
Paul’s encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus is one of the most dramatic stories in the Bible — but is it really the model for how everyone becomes a Christian?
In this week’s Extra Slice, Nick digs deeper into Acts 9, exploring Paul’s calling, the often-misunderstood Saul/Paul name change, what it means to be truly connected to Christ, and the wonderfully simple faithfulness of Ananias.
Not everyone has a dramatic “Damascus Road” moment — and that doesn’t make anyone a second-class Christian. Sometimes faith grows through years of faithful people praying, encouraging, teaching and simply being there.
Perhaps our calling isn’t to manufacture dramatic encounters with God, but simply to be ready to say: “I’ll go where you lead me, Lord.”
Grab an Extra Slice and join us as we continue our journey through Acts.
29 Sept 2026
Sunday Sermon | When Your Past No Longer Defines You | Acts 9
Saul sets out for Damascus determined to arrest followers of Jesus. But an encounter on the road changes everything.
In this week’s Sunday Sermon from Acts 9, Rob explores Saul’s extraordinary transformation, the courage of Ananias, and those two remarkable words: “Brother Saul.”
What really defines us — our past, our successes, our failures, what other people think of us… or who Jesus says we are?
As we celebrate Harvest, we’re reminded that grace, identity and belonging aren’t things we achieve. They are gifts we receive.

Extra Slice | When God Interrupts the Plan | Acts 8:26–40
In this week’s Extra Slice, Nick takes another look at the story of Philip and the Ethiopian official in Acts 8.
Philip responds to God’s prompting, steps away from where he is comfortable and discovers that God is already at work in the life of someone he has never met. It is a story about listening, being willing to go, helping others understand Scripture and making space for everyone to respond to Jesus.
What might happen when we are prepared to let God interrupt our plans?

Sunday Sermon | You Don’t Have to Be on the Outside | Acts 8:26–40
Have you ever felt like God was speaking to you? And what happens when He asks you to take a step without telling you why?
In the first of our STG+ Sunday Sermons, we explore Acts 8:26–40 and the extraordinary encounter between Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch.
It’s a story about listening to God, stepping out in faith, belonging when you’ve felt like an outsider — and discovering that the invitation of Jesus really is for everyone.
“You don’t have to be on the outside. You can come in.”
Recorded at St George’s Church, Wilton, Taunton, as part of our journey through the book of Acts.

Extra Slice | We Cannot Keep Quiet | Acts 4:5–20
Welcome to Extra Slice!
This week, Nick takes us a little deeper into Acts 4, picking up some of the themes from Sunday and exploring what they might mean for us today.
Extra Slice is a chance to go beyond Sunday’s teaching — with more thoughts, questions and reflections to help us dig deeper into the Bible and live out our faith through the week.
