People of God: Mary: God's servant - Clare Thompson
July 29th 2018. People of God: Mary - God’s servant(Luke 1). Plucked from obscurity by an angelic visitation the mother of Jesus is introduced in the first chapter of Luke’s gospel, with a remarkably calm response to a ‘mind-blowing’ announcement. Mary is tasked with the most important job all of human history - giving birth to the son of God himself. As a very young woman in a patriarchal society with little influence or experience, she is not perhaps the archetypal heroine, and yet Mary makes her mark by responding to the angel’s message announcing the supernatural pregnancy with great trust and courage.

Truth Encounters: Pilate - David Mitchell
July 29th 2018. Truth encounters: Pilate. (John 18:32-40). In this final ‘truth encounter’ Jesus stands before the most powerful man in Jerusalem, the representative of the Roman Emperor himself, Pontius Pilate. Pilate is the furthest from the faith of Judaism too, and represents perhaps a view that corresponds to the contemporary distrust of absolutes. John’s gospel is concerned with Truth however. The Greek word for truth Alethia occurs 25 times and it has connotations of faithfulness and ‘unveiling’ as well as factual truth. Download Discussion notes

Devotion Does 100 Acts of Courage
For teenagers at Devotion, summer is often a chance to unwind, relax and switch off from the busy world of school life. We love that things slow down a bit and that fun is well and truly at the top of the agenda.
We're excited, however, that this summer we will be mixing down time with acts of bravery with a new initiative we are calling 100 Acts of Courage.
The idea is simple, over the course of the 6 weeks, we are asking every young person to do one or two simple acts of courage; it could be speaking to a family member on the phone, telling someone about Jesus or writing to an MP about a political issue. Whatever it is, we aim to collectively do 100 amazing acts together.
So, Devotees, get your courage caps on and get out there! Let us know what you've done by taking a photo, writing a sentence about it and either emailing Chris at chris.duncan@woodlandschurch.net or tagging @devoyouth on instagram.
We can't wait to see what amazing things God does through this!
