As we enter the week leading up to Easter, Duane Major takes us to the Garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus prays and agonises, and the disciples face the temptation to turn away and fall asleep rather than comfort and support their friend - the type of temptation we all face at some point.

Denied
We move from betrayal to denial. After vehemently protesting he would ever deny Jesus, Peter proceeds to do just that not once, not twice, but three times. Amelia Smith shows us how Peter's Easter experience is a mirror of the very rhythm of life and creation that we all experience.

Betrayal
Amelia Smith continues our Innocent series with a look at the person of Judas and the reasons why despite everything he saw and heard of Jesus, he still betrayed him.

Questions
In the lead up to Easter this year we are walking through the week leading up to the crucifixion and resurrection, focusing on the experiences of the ‘innocent Jesus’ through this final week. To open this series we begin with the questions with which the religious leaders tried to trap him.

Called to be Peacemakers
Jo Robertson brings our series on Jesus's Call to Community to an end with a look at how God's people are called to be peacemakers: to resolve conflict rather than perpetuate it or ignore it, and to help bring about the conditions for peace to grow and develop.
At South West Baptist Church, we’re all about redemptive communities and lifelong followers of Jesus. We are inspired by our long-held vision statement:
“To be a redemptive community,
sharing the love of Christ in the world,
by word, sign and deed;
helping people become lifelong followers of Jesus Christ.”
We value: love for God, ourselves, each other and the world.
