If there's one thing we all need today, it is hope.
Up and Alive: Living The Life We Are Made For is a reminder for all of us who call ourselves followers of Jesus, whoever and wherever we are, to be who we are truly called to be in the light of hope, and to reflect the glory of God to the world around us.
Digging into the six chapters of Paul's letter to the Ephesians, Cathy and Mark Madavan recapture a vision of who we really are in Christ - defined, redeemed, called and empowered by God to live for his glory in hope, and unearthing plenty of wisdom and insight along the way to equip us to live out our faith and consistently stand firm in an increasingly secular society.
Join the Madavans and be inspired to find purpose and to grow in confidence, unity and maturity together as a church - all underpinned by the assurance of who we are, biblically speaking. We are part of God's unfolding plan, and we are commissioned to share his good news with others. Here's to being Up and Alive in Jesus!
Up and Alive is the official theme book for Spring Harvest 2024.

Mark Madavan is Senior Minister in Fishponds Baptist Church, team leader, Bible teacher, speaker and mentor. He is married to Cathy and they have two beautiful daughters.
