New Sermon Series: Christmas Carols image

Starting the 12th December 2021, Salt Church will be focusing on Christmas Carols: More than background noise! One feature of the Christmas period is Christmas Carols. We all have our favourite Carol. Whether you love or hate them you definitely can’t ignore them, as they’re blasted out on repeat in all the shops. Usually though, Christmas Carols are part of the background noise of Christmas – drowned out by the parties and presents, food, friends and fun. This Christmas we’re bringing them front and centre to see what they’re about: what did the writers of these songs see about Jesus and the first Christmas that led them to write these famous Carols? We’d love you to join us this Christmas, ...

How should I live to please God more with my life? How should we live as disciples at Salt Church? Romans 12 is packed with how to live in response to the gospel. It begins with ‘In view of God’s mercy… do this .. (verse 1). In this chapter there’s hardly a part of life God doesn’t address for us ...

Pathway back to physical gatherings image

September 22nd 2021: Stay tuned and pray for Salt Church leadership as we make some important decisions to return back to physical gatherings over the next few weeks.

We’re running a night to help you think about whether to be vaccinated, because it’s a decision we all have to make or have already made. But we’re doing something bigger than that too.

But we often need to make decisions where it’s complicated, there’s a lot of factors to weigh up, and it’s not clear what the “good choice” is. When: This event will be online and interactive! Tune in via our YouTube Live-stream on Friday 10th September at 7.30 pm What to expect: How do you make those kinds of complex decisions?
