  • How does the Holy Spirit guide the church? Acts 13:1–12 (Richard Portlock)
    2026/06/07
    This talk was given by Richard Portlock at St Jude’s Church Southsea on 7 June 2026. The reading was Acts 13:1–12. The church in Antioch was worshipping and fasting, hearing the Holy Spirit’s direction to send Barnabas and Paul, and beginning a new phase of mission in Cyprus. In Paphos they meet opposition from Elymas the sorcerer, and Paul—filled with the Holy Spirit—exposes the deceit at work. The proconsul Sergius Paulus then believes, struck by the teaching about the Lord. This talk explores corporate guidance, prayer and fasting, spiritual discernment, responding to opposition, and how the gospel reaches people we might not expect. With a historian’s eye, Luke highlights a praying, diverse church that listens together and then obeys. The message challenges us to make space for God—individually and together—so we can hear and respond to his leading. It also reflects on how to handle resistance with humility, truth and love, relying on the Spirit rather than the world’s methods. Finally, Sergius Paulus reminds us not to pre‑decide who might be open to Jesus. If you’re exploring faith, a good next step is to read Luke’s Gospel and consider who Jesus is and what his life, death and resurrection mean for you.

  • Why earnest prayer matters, Acts 12:1–19 (Andrew Walker)
    2026/05/31
    This talk was given by Andrew Walker at St Jude’s Church Southsea on 31 May 2026. The Bible readings were Acts 12:1–19 (primary), with references to Romans 8:26–27 and Ephesians 6:10–18. Warm and down-to-earth, the talk moves from the humour of Rhoda at the door to the hard edges of persecution, holding together realism and hope. Andrew encourages prayer that is honest, persistent, and expectant, without pretending outcomes are always the same. He offers practical help for different prayer temperaments, urging each of us to discover and use the way we best pray. The closing invitation is simple: become more wholehearted in prayer, look for God’s action, and ask the Holy Spirit to raise our expectancy, deepen our love for Jesus, and lead us into freedom.

  • Gospel hope for everyone, Acts 11:19–30 (Homnath Dhakal)
    2026/05/17
    This talk explores how the good news of Jesus moved beyond one culture to many in Acts 11:19–30. Scattered by persecution, believers reached Antioch and began speaking not only to Jews but also to Greeks. The Lord’s hand was with them, many believed, and Barnabas arrived to encourage them to remain true to the Lord. He then brought Saul to help teach for a year, and the disciples were first called Christians there. When Agabus foretold a famine, the Antioch church responded with practical generosity, sending help to Judea. Themes include mission across cultures, encouragement, collaboration, the power of the Holy Spirit, and measured success by God’s grace rather than human effort. This talk was given by Professor Homnath Dhakal at St Jude’s Church Southsea on 17 May 2026. The reading was Acts 11:19–30; other references included Acts 1:8; Matthew 28:18–20; 2 Timothy 2:1; Luke 19:1–10; and Revelation 7:17. With a warm, pastoral tone, the talk invites us to see how God uses ordinary people to share hope, to encourage one another in faith, and to cross cultural and social boundaries with the love of Christ. It also points to Antioch’s example of thoughtful, proactive generosity. Listeners are encouraged to consider where God may be calling them to remain faithful, to collaborate humbly, and to put love into action in their own communities.
