With the usual banter, humour, wisdom, insight and height restriction jools will tackle the whole book of Jonah. Come along, be provoked & inspired, get some free coffee & toast, and walk into the rest of the day with a smile - just remember, it’s wasn’t a whale - it was a *@*%* big fish!
Peter Lynas will help us look at questions such as: “what am I called to do?”, “is there a right job” and “why do we work?”

Octagon Men Madness - Wink wink! Jasper Rutherford “It didn’t really hurt.” “It’s not that bad.” “I will get over it no probs.” Why do we as guys pretend things don’t hurt us? Whether its sexual relationships, family trouble, pornography, drugs, strained friendships or committing to God, why are we so quick to brush it under the carpet? God sees our cover ups and wants to deal with them. This seminar is about letting God deal with stuff we keep covering up. Easy - Wink wink!
