	Our services combine the best of old and new to enable an uplifting and challenging encounter with God. Songs are chosen from a range of sources including Songs of Fellowship, Rejoice & Sing, & The Baptist Hymn Book, and we have a CCL licence for material not in any of the bound books.  Our church Bible is the New International Version, and we refer to other translations as appropriate.
	The format is planned to be informal yet dignified, jargon free, engaging and interactive.  There is a strong emphasis on hearing, and understanding God's word, interpreting and applying it to real life today.
