The Holy Spirit is often the least-understood person of the Trinity, so this week we are embarking on a three-week study into who He is and His purposes on this earth.
Grab a notepad and settle into this teaching this week as Ps Jo Willis guides us through the Holy Spirit’s fit, function and focus; and delves into the significance of various words to describe His nature, one being the Hebrew ‘neshama’: the breath of life.
Are you stuck in familiarity? Have you been carrying around a sense of hopelessness? Maybe it’s time for a hard reset.
Don’t miss the miracle right in front of you this week as we explore what hope we can have in our city and our personal worlds with this brand new message from Ps Jo Willis.
God’s plan was always that we would experience the gate of heaven – we just have to change our perspective.
Grab onto the hope we have in Christ and the fact the Lord sees the man in the mess this week as we work together to begin to build the church He sees. Be encouraged in this with Ps Jo Willis’ latest message – the first part of our new series – Heaven on Earth: Home Away from Home.
In all the tumult of our world, it’s so easy to lose sight of our first love. But what is our first love? Is it Jesus, or is it the church?
Listen to this week’s podcast with Ps Jo Willis as he explores our need to reprioritise our loves to further the kingdom of God. Let’s rise up as an effective church; an effective body, with our unique parts and gifts working together in unison.
The glory days are something we so often look at as something that’s behind us, but more than ever before we believe that it’s something God is leading us into.
The way we access them? Courageous faith. And one of the most surprising people to make it into the Hebrews 11 ‘Hall of Faith’ was Samson. This message attempts to unravel the mystery as to why
So much of what we live in tomorrow is based on what we are building today.
The legacy we leave in the future has the ability to break open areas in our world not just for the kingdom of heaven but for others to follow in as well but the question we have to ask ourselves before we get there we have to ask ourselves one question. What are we building?
Your ability to belong is inextricably linked to your gifting being released and without it giants of intimidation will continue to threaten our future. But God has built a giant slayer into each one of us, uniquely gifting us to take down giants both personally and on behalf of others, and it happens as we are we are planted in the soil of community and flourish beside the stream of the Holy Spirit. Understand that there are stages to belonging; it takes something of us, and as we move through them, God transforms us to become giant slayers on behalf of a generation.
There is more to your miracle, a message from Pastor Jo Willis from Hope City Sheffield on how the miracle God gives you will benefit those around you, preached live at Hope City Church in York.
Ever been on autopilot and gone back an old address?
In life that can often happen too; we can move back into our old habits, ways of thinking or lifestyles, but God has called us to occupy a new place. This new place is influential and significant, but in order to reside here we have to say goodbye to the old address and utilise the keys to our new location.
Defiance in the right space can be a good thing. We often see defiance as being in a position of strength standing firm against the things that oppose us. And yet, Daniel’s defiance was found humbly on his knees in prayer. Take a knee and see the astounding ways in which God will move on your behalf.

We can think when we’re in the miracle that all that matters is the outcome, but on the journey, God can work wonders in our hearts and open our eyes to His goodness.
Sometimes it’s not the glamorous heights we need to seek to serve our God-given dreams. Sometimes we need to dig down, to dig in with prayerfulness and faith. Ditches don’t just supply your present, they serve your future. We need to be a people who pray, a family who look to God, a body of ditch diggers.
