An overview of the community church small boat big sea, the people and activities we are part of.


Community


small boat big sea is a community of people who share a passion for life, creativity and justice. We seek to develop genuine Christian spirituality that connects deeply through place and space, beyond just Sundays. We do, however, meet weekly on Sunday afternoons at the William Street Studios in Manly, and hold a number of other events, gatherings and projects.




Our Rhythm

We encourage one another to live by a simple rhythm - Look, Listen, Learn, Live (More...). So we regularly think:

Look – How can I be attentive to God and to others this week? What have I seen or heard of God’s work in my world?

Listen – To whom can I make myself vulnerable this week & in what ways have I opened myself others?

Learn – What have I learned from God’s Word this week & in what ways am I seeking to embody that learning?

Live – How can I make myself available to God for his purposes this week?


DNA

DNA stands for discipleship, nurture, and accountability. Our community meets together over a meal or a coffee regularly in little groups of 2 to 5 people to talk, support, study scripture and pray for each other. Every person in our community is encouraged to join a DNA. DNA is at the heart of our community because we have found it to be so important for healthy spiritual lives. (more...)




The Lounge

small boat big sea meets in the lounge. The lounge is church stripped of its formality. We eat together. We teach and encourage each other. We pray for our community and for the world. We aim to put Jesus at the centre of everything we do.
