Looking for Answers
Life throws up all kinds of challenges and difficulties which can be hard to face at times. Big events in our life-stories - love, birth, sickness, bereavement - prompt us to pray, or at least hope for God’s help. It’s at these times that a church-community can help.
We don’t pretend to have all the answers but many of us have faced the questions and discovered God to be unexpectedly close. Our pastoral staff and volunteers are available to listen, talk and pray. All you have to do is ask. Contact us at one of our events or through the church office.
If you're interested in discovering what it means to be a Christian (that is, a follower of Jesus Christ) or simply have some time and space to think through who Jesus is and why it matters why not join one of our Alpha courses where we look into this over a meal in a relaxed and informal atmosphere. See here for further details.
In the meanwhile, if you want to check out a few online resources (anything from introductory to advanced level) then the bethinking.org website is a good place to start.

An update from Portswood Church Environmental Representatives
At the start of 2025 we would like to give an update from the Portswood Church Environmental Representatives - a group who share ideas and encouragement for ways to serve God by looking after his world and its resources (see Genesis 1 and Creation care in a climate crisis).
