GROWING IN CHRIST
We run various ministries at E5 – from Junior church to our Kings club to our Mens and Women groups, there is something for all ages and backgrounds here at E5. If you have been to a church service and visited a Connect Lunch, then these options are avaiable to you.
Our ministries are focussed on discipling each other on becoming more like Jesus. Here you will find pathways for those exploring faith, exploring discipleship and exploring church. Check out the video for more information.
We believe in creating pathways for anyone we are connecting with, whether they are new to faith or have years of experience in church. This is not a hierarchy of programme, it is however, a recognition that we can journey with people whatever they need to explore next for them. Below you will find a all the information about the courses and spaces we offer to meet you where you are at, and hopefully, journey forward together.
exploring faith & discipleship
Christianity Explored is a relaxed and informal way of sharing the best news you can ever hear, and gives people space and time to think about the big questions of life.
Over seven sessions in Mark’s Gospel, guests find out more about the life of the person at the heart of the Christian faith – Jesus Christ.
exploring discipleship
We have a great opportunity for anyone who is thinking about getting Baptised in water. Pastor Steve will be running a three-week Baptismal preparation class starting on Wednesday 2nd November, which will ask questions like: does it matter if I am baptised? Why is it so important? Is it optional? Come and find out what the Bible has to say.
EXploring church
The stress and demands of modern living are taking their toll on our mental health and wellbeing. The majority of us may feel the affect, but don’t fully understand the cause. Many of us don’t even feel comfortable talking about our mental wellbeing.
A Kintsugi Hope Group is a safe and supportive space for people who feel or have felt overwhelmed. Over 12 sessions, we will discuss issues such as disappointment, loss, anxiety, anger, perfectionism, shame and resilience. The group is suitable for anyone wanting a better understanding of themselves and their emotions.
Through individual and group activities, and the support of the other group members, participants will develop a deeper understanding of the reality of God’s love for them, increase their confidence and self-worth, and grow towards a more resilient and hopeful future.
The Freedom In Christ approach is discipleship that will help every Christian to become fruitful disciples. This course is suitable for both new and Christians and those who have been Christians a long time.
The course focuses on establishing your identity in Christ, and then equips the believer with tools to help them break free and stay free. Focused on firstly establishing every Christian in the sure foundation of their identity in Jesus, it gives them the tools to break free and stay free from all that holds them back in life and being a fruitful disciple, and a strategy for ongoing transformation.
