I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday | Christmas #1 | Welcome Church, Woking

Cassie concluded our Christmas #1 series by reflecting on the song “I Wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day” and pointing us to a deeper, lasting hope.

From Luke 2:22–35, we looked at Simeon’s song and his confident hope in a faithful, promise-keeping God. His hope wasn’t in a perfect season, but in the God who brings comfort and deliverance through Jesus. Christmas doesn’t meet us in an idealised moment, but in the real life we’re living. What we truly need isn’t Christmas every day, but Christ every day—the Light of the world who comes alongside us with compassion, power, and peace.

Last Christmas | Christmas #1 | Welcome Church, Woking

Christopher continued our Christmas #1 series by asking why “Last Christmas” connects with so many of us and who we can truly trust with our hearts.

We looked at Zechariah’s song in Luke 1:68–79, which reminds us that God saves, keeps His promises, and brings new life through Jesus. Unlike the fragile love in the song, God’s love never fails. Christmas invites us to trust Him afresh and respond to His unconditional love.

Mary's Boy Child | Christmas#1 | Welcome Church, Woking

Steve kicked off our new series, Christmas #1! We began with Mary’s song in Luke 1:46–55, the Magnificat. Her worship turns Christmas upside down—reminding us it’s not about us striving to reach the top, but about God humbling Himself to come down and be with us. Grace and mercy aren’t earned; they’re received when we bow before Jesus, the true Christmas #1.

Mary’s song was written to magnify the Lord. How will you live that out this Christmas?

Why There's Enough For Everyone | True Religion

Christopher continued our True Religion series in Luke 12:13–34, exploring why there’s enough for everyone. He challenged us to see how we often live as if there isn’t—loving money too much to give, worrying too much to trust, and believing the lie that life is found in possessions. Jesus showed a better way: He made Himself poor, paid the greatest cost, and freely shared His riches with us. His generosity compels us to share what we have and use our resources for God’s kingdom.

Why Who You Love Reveals Who is Your Lord | True Religion | Welcome Church, Woking

Christopher continued our True Religion series in Luke 11:37–46, exploring why who you love reveals who is your Lord. We saw that the Pharisees loved their own traditions, priorities and privilege. Jesus showed a better way: He broke traditions to love the poor, put God’s priorities above His own, and used His privilege to serve God’s promise. Christopher challenged us to pour out the love we’ve received to those around us and show what true love for Jesus really looks like.

Why Poverty Is Not God's Plan | True Religion | Welcome Church, Woking

Steve continued our True Religion series with the question: Why Poverty is not God’s Plan? From Luke 4:14–21, we see that Jesus’ mission was to bring good news for the poor—both practical and spiritual. Poverty was never part of God’s good design, but Jesus came to bring freedom, restoration and hope. He calls us to reflect His kingdom by living out justice and compassion today.

Why Everyone Matters to God | True Religion | Welcome Church, Woking

Christopher kicked off our new series True Religion, looking at James 1:27 and Luke 5:12–16, reminding us that everyone matters to God.

Our worth comes from being made in His image, and Jesus showed this by stepping into our dust, touching the untouchable, and restoring dignity. True religion means living out that truth—loving others, serving the vulnerable, and reflecting God’s heart for justice.

Guest Speaker: Terry Virgo | Welcome Church, Woking

Terry Virgo brought a stirring message, reminding us that we’re saved by faith not by works. We don’t need to fill our lives with dead works to ease our conscience—only Jesus can do that. Instead, God calls us to living works, flowing from His love, as we step into the good things He has prepared for each of us!

A Church Shaped By The Gospel | Romans 16 | Welcome Church, Woking

We had the joy of finishing our Romans series in chapter 16, looking at what it means to be a church shaped by the gospel. Paul closes his letter with a long list of greetings, but as we saw, it’s much more than end credits. It’s a picture of the gospel at work—bringing together men and women, Jew and Gentile, rich and poor, young and old—one diverse family in Christ. We were reminded that a gospel-shaped church is called to honour one another, guard against division, and ultimately bring glory to Jesus in everything we do. Romans begins and ends with the same truth: the gospel of Jesus is for all people, and it is this good news that shapes us into His family.

Making Big Decisions | Romans15:14-33 | Welcome Church, Woking

We had the joy of listening to Larey as he continued our Romans series in chapter 15. He walked us through Paul’s reflections on ministry and future plans, using them to help us think about making big decisions in our own lives. Larey encouraged us to know our calling and purpose in Christ, to make ambitious plans in partnership with Him, and to invite others to pray with us while trusting God’s providence. He reminded us that while our plans may shift, what matters most is living faithfully in step with Jesus.

Disputes and Unity | Romans 14:1-15:13 | Welcome Church, Woking

We had the joy of listening to Ben as he continued our Romans series in chapters 14–15! He guided us through Paul’s teaching on handling disagreements in the church, encouraging us to welcome those who see things differently, be selfless with our freedom, and keep the full God’s heart for unity in the Church. He reminded us that what unites us in Jesus is far more important than what could divide us.

Romans 13:1-14 | Welcome Church, Woking

Christopher continued our Romans series in chapter 13, inviting us to reflect on how our view of time shapes the way we live. In a world of shifting authorities and pressures, what does it mean to live with trust, love, and hope? This passage challenges us to think about how we relate to others, respond to leadership, and prepare for what’s ahead. As followers of Jesus, we’re called to live in light of the day that is coming.

We’re thrilled to welcome our new Associate Pastor, Stephen Dawson, as he brings this week’s message from Romans 12:9–21. What does real love look like in a divided world? God calls us, by his grace, to love sincerely, hate what’s evil, and hold tight to what’s good.
