Behind the Scenes: Steve Horne

March 31st, 2010

Steve Horne is an Elder here at CCK and looks after a lot of the ministry teams. He lives in Moulsecoombe with his wife, Jane and they have four children together; Bethany, Tilly, Megan and Sam. Steve talks to Emily Sneyd about why he is passionate about his job, and why it’s not wise to eat a curry before running a marathon…

E.S: Hi Steve,  can you tell me how you came to be part of CCK?

S.H: Well, I grew up in Bognor Regis, and my wife, Jane grew up in Uckfield. I worked in London for a while as a student nurse and it was friends that I made through nursing that introduced me to Church. I eventually got saved and began to get involved with the Holy Trinity Brompton Church (HTB), and did the Alpha course there. I really wanted to get married to Jane but my friends advised me not to as she wasn’t a Christian at the time, plus Jane thought it was all a bit weird then! But shortly after, she got saved here in Brighton! We were married in Uckfield and then moved to Brighton and were recommended CCK by some friends.  In fact, even before we had considered it, Jane had dreams about the Church that we would be a part of and specifically had a vision of some steps, so when we walked through the main entrance of the Clarendon Centre and saw the stairs leading up to the main hall, we knew it was where we were meant to be! I was very happy because like HTB, CCK is a charismatic church, but mainly, we both felt led to be part of God’s Church in Brighton- and we’ve been here ever since!

E.S: Fantastic. Now what exactly are your responsibilities as an Elder at CCK?

S.H: I oversee the ‘Ground war’ teams which put simply, is all the ‘People’ ministries, so; Small groups, Zones, Youth work, Student work etc. and lots of other aspects of Family life such as Counselling and the Parenting course, and also the Social-action Zone. To make this all happen, I work to a lot of the other Elders and leaders in the church, like fellow Elders, Steve Walford and Matt Davis, and I oversee a lot of different teams.

E.S: That’s a lot of things to take care of!

S.H: I guess I’ve always focused on the Church in Acts: 2 – it shows an incredible community of Jesus-loving people, looking after itself in pursuing the right things, and consequently, being added to daily. To enable this, we need to be a big presence on Sundays with our three meetings and be a real voice to the City.  But equally as important is the need to back that up with a strong community that is attractive to the people of Brighton & Hove who don’t know who we are yet. My passion is to see people saved- I love the gospel, and love to see people led to Christ. I am fully behind Joel (our lead Elder) in what he is preaching, and where he is leading us.

E.S: What motivates you as a person?

S.H: My wonderful wife and kids, as well Joel’s vision for the Church and City- what he sees and wants for us as a Church. I also love learning from the great men around me at Church. I have made sure over the years that I’ve seized every opportunity to work with as many of them as I can (like Peter Brooks, John Hosier, Peter Lyndon and Dave Fellingham etc.). They’re amazing men, and I’ve learned so much from them and continue to do so, they’re all influences of mine.

E.S: Any bad habits!?

S.H: I am absolutely terrible with names, which is quite unfortunate being a pastoral elder!  I’m also quite impulsive and talkative so there’s times when I’ve said completely the wrong thing at the wrong time…

E.S: Haha, that must be a source of some amusement at times! What’s playing on your ipod at the moment?

S.H: Everything! I’ve got some of our home-bred talent, Phatfish on there, as well as Delirious? And of course, some Queen! I’ve got a lot of dance music on there which I listen to while I’m running. I’m training for the Brighton marathon at the moment which is hard work but I really enjoy it- I’m on week 15 of the training programme at the moment so I’m getting there. I’ve done a marathon before and learnt some lessons the hard way -I ate a curry for lunch and then tried to run 23 miles, which in retrospect wasn’t the wisest plan… This year, I’ll know better.

Thanks Steve, we’ll be rooting for you at the marathon in April!

Men and Women of Honour: Dave Edwards

March 30th, 2010

Dave Edwards – From Rags to Riches to Christ

In 1994, I was on a crowded beach in Rio de Janeiro. There were some kids body boarding on waves that were over 10 feet high and very powerful. There were 7 or 8 breakers but beyond the waves the sea was calm and I thought if I could get through the breakers, I could swim in the calm sea. So I managed that and felt quite proud of myself as there was no one else there. However, it took me quite an effort and so was feeling very tired. So I decided to come back in but I couldn’t. The harder I tried the further I kept getting dragged out. Panic set in. I was miles away from land on either side. Then I remembered the kids body boarding and so I stiffened my body and rode the first wave which led me to the second wave and to cut a long story short I landed on the beach exhausted but very grateful. It gave me a new respect for the sea. That was one of the many times I almost died!

A few years later God revealed to me that it was He who had plucked me out of the sea and placed me on solid ground. It helped me a draw parallel with the messed up life, from which I had no way out. God had pulled me out and placed me on solid ground.

I was born into abject poverty in Ireland. 3 of my 4 siblings including me were put in an orphanage because my parents couldn’t afford to look after us. I know what poverty is and being in that situation I vowed that I’d never be poor again. At a young age I started working in hotels ON  the catering side. It gave me free food, free accommodation and a wage and tips! So it was quite good. And my story of discovering Jesus really begins when I was working as a hotel manager in Jersey in 1975. This hotel happened to be a Christian hotel where they served non alcoholic wine and I found that very weird! But it was my job and the owner’s beliefs didn’t really bother me. Anyway, a young church leader, Graham Topping, and his wife and 9 month daughter, came to stay at the hotel. One day as I was sitting by the pool, he came up to me and I knew what was coming next! He asked me, “David, are you happy with life?” I laughed at him and replied, “Look around, I have the sun and the pool, money and a healthy body! Why shouldn’t I be happy with life?!” After talking a while, he left, but before checking out, he gave me a book instead of a tip, which was a bit disappointing! It was called The Late Great Planet Earth by Hal Lindsey. It was a book about the prophecies in the Bible especially about the Jews and Israel. It talked about a prophecy that God would disperse the Jews among the world for their disobedience but He was not going to completely forsake them and He would bring them back in the end times, just before Jesus the Messiah was to come back. This happened in 1948 when Israel was re-established as a homeland for the Jews. I thought it was all very interesting but didn’t pay much heed to it.

25 years later, I was successful in the antiques business. I had made loads of money and travelled all over the world. I had all the trappings of a rich man. I got divorced in 1993 and from there on I was free to go and do all the things I shouldn’t be doing but I did. I did drugs and alcohol and women. I mixed with a crowd that also had lots of money. But when it came down to it, they turned out to not be genuine friends.

One Sunday morning after a night of very heavy cocaine and alcohol, I put the TV on and the first channel that came on was the God channel. There was no way after my hangover that I was going to get up and change the channel. So I listened to the programme and strangely enough, they were talking about the biblical prophecy about the Jews returning to Israel. I was interested immediately. But I thought this couldn’t be real because if it was they would be shouting it from the rooftops. Anyway, the show ended and they said if you have anymore questions, you should call the number shown on the screen. So sure enough I called the number and they said there was an Alpha course starting in Brighton at a place called Church of Christ the King. I thought to myself I’ve done everything in my life and I owe it to myself to have a look at this. I wasn’t going to tell my friends because they would have thought that I had lost the plot. I was determined that they wouldn’t get me or my money but I would look at the Alpha course very carefully. I was too street wise for them and I would find the mistake. I never did!

So I went along. This was the year 2000. I met some very interesting people there. I was told that there was a church that met in the building we had the Alpha course in. I was surprised because this building didn’t look anything like any idea of a church I had in mind from a catholic point of view. I thought I’d sneak up one Sunday and mingle with the crowd and see what it was all about. So I went along and I saw people worshipping in a way that you never do in a catholic church. They had a peaceful look about them and I thought this was very unreal. But I was really intrigued so I went back again. Everyone looked as peaceful, like angels. So I made quite an irreverent prayer, “God if you’re real and here, I want some of this. I want loads of this.” I didn’t even recognize that it was a prayer at that time.

5 weeks later in to the Alpha course, I suddenly encountered the Holy Spirit and I committed my life to Jesus. Here was this big cheese with loads of money, drugs and girlfriends who was giving his life to Jesus. I was amazed at myself. I had never thought I’d do something like this but I knew this was real and I knew that there was nothing more I wanted in life than Jesus. Everything else could fall away for all I care. From that point on God has answered my first prayer – He has given me loads of it. He has given me a joy and a peace that goes beyond all understanding. I can’t explain it. I have a fulfilment now which I never had before. I understand where it’s come from but I don’t have words good enough to relate what God has done in my life for me. I deserved nothing. I can’t stop telling people enough how grateful I am. I can’t stop telling God enough how grateful I am!

The day I became a Christian, I had an excessive amount of cocaine with me. I had a bag which was probably worth about 600 quid. I was trying to justify to myself that nowhere in the bible did it say ‘thou shall not do cocaine’ but I knew in my spirit that it was wrong for me to have this. So I decided to give it away and tell my friends that I had stopped doing it and that would be a good testimony of me becoming a Christian. But I felt God tell me that He did not want me to do that. So then I thought that maybe I could sell it and give the money to the church or some charity and some good would come out of this. But God said no, I want you to flush it down the toilet. I argued with God for a bit but then I just did it and from that moment on I’ve never taken cocaine nor had the urge to do so.

A lot of wonderful things have happened to me since. One of the first things I did after becoming a follower of Jesus was to pray for my family to come to know the Lord. And from one miraculous story to another, all 4 of my children came to know Jesus and love Him with all their hearts. Seeing their love for Jesus makes me a very grateful and proud father.

I hope my testimony gives you hope if you’re praying for family members or friends. I was far far away from God, but He has brought me home.

The Basement

March 24th, 2010

The CCK Communications team & Technology and Innovation team are responsible for a lot of the creative and media content produced by CCK. For instance the CCK website and blogs are managed by this team, as well as some of the photography, graphic design, video content and media library.

The team includes an array of talented journalists, writers, web editors, graphic designers, photographers, video editors, IT professionals, animators and more, some of whom eagerly volunteer many hours each week to serve what is an increasingly important area of church life; the engagement; artistically, culturally and technologically, with CCK, the city of Brighton and the world beyond.

This team has a home. That home is called The Basement.

A hub. A nerve centre from which all of this creative juice flows. The Basement is where all the magic happens. The basement even talks; You can follow it on twitter here; @TheBasement

Like the great choreographer of The Bolshoi, Matt Simmonds is the man responsible for orchestrating this team, coordinating them alongside the Technology and Innovation team managed by Andy Ferrett. Andy’s team are in charge of IT support and the technical production of CCK sunday meetings. The PA, lighting, Audio/Visual, IT and video recording are all under the management of Andy and his team of experts…

These are some of the recent and more notable projects that The Basement has been involved in;

Photoshoot for ‘Alternative City’ preaching series

CCK Stories Videos

The CCK iPhone app

The Basement needs you. If you’d be interested in joining this team and helping The Basement to become an even greater force of creative wonderment, fill in the form on this webpage. Working around your diary and in any spare time you have, we would love to know about and work with the hoards of talented people out there that could make this the best thing since sliced bread got the financial backing it needed to become ‘the best thing’.

Behind the Scenes: Dan Sweetman

March 24th, 2010

I like to visualise the Clarendon Centre as an aircraft carrier, launching different missions for furthering the kingdom of God in Brighton”

Dan Sweetman is facilities manager at CCK and his primary job is managing the Clarendon Centre, where our Sunday meetings take place. Dan is passionate about spreading the good news of the gospel across the City, and also leads the North Hove Zone with his wife, Adrienne. They have two daughters together; Keziah and Emery. Dan chats to Emily Sneyd about his role, and why he is so excited to be part of the Church in the City of Brighton and Hove.

E.S : Hi Dan!  First of all, can you tell me a little bit about yourself?

D.S: Well, I was born and bred in Brighton, and was blessed enough to grow up in the Church! My background has always been in IT- it’s not something I studied, but I enjoyed it so I worked up to being an IT manager for a while.

Then, a few years ago I felt God prompt me to work abroad for a year, so I ended up in Missouri, U.S . I worked with a Newfrontiers Church out there. I had a really great year and developed my faith, but it certainly wasn’t easy and was painful at times as God dealt with issues in my heart. My time there ended abruptly when my application for renewal of my Visa was denied, and I was forced to come back to Brighton. I was recently engaged, but my fiancée, being the amazing woman of God that she is, was happy to follow me back to England. In hindsight I can see that God was calling me back to Brighton and it was all part of His plan for my life.

Adrienne and I got married when I returned and then I got a job managing buildings and selling office space. This was an interesting time as I learnt a lot of new skills that have been invaluable in my role in managing the Clarendon Centre.

E.S: That’s quite a journey! Tell me a bit about your job- What does it involve?

D.S: I like to visualise the Clarendon Centre as an aircraft carrier, launching different missions for furthering the kingdom of God in Brighton. The Centre itself is influential because of it’s visibility in the city- It’s a fantastic tool for our mission as it gets different groups of people into the building as well as being able to offer an outstanding space to hire out for meetings and events.

The largest part of the job is our Sunday meetings; we run three services each Sunday so much of the week is spent gearing up to these big events. Another large part of my job is developing new business for the Centre and offering a great service to clients for when they want to hire out the Centre for events. Closely associated to that is overseeing the events themselves; doing the preparation, clear-up and then re-setting for the next event- it’s a lot of work! We are a relatively small team, but the team fires on all cylinders and are doing a phenomenal job. The catering and hospitality side of things is also huge for the department; Church-run events such as the Alpha and Beta courses, serve three-course meals and I again oversee a fantastic catering team.

E.S: That sounds like a lot of responsibility! How would you say your job feeds into your passion for the Church and for the city of Brighton?

D.S: I’m in a privileged position in my role; I am able to see what CCK is doing on both a macro and micro level. On a macro-level, it is seeing how the Church can serve the city as a whole; for example, for the Brighton Marathon in April, we are reducing our three Sunday meetings to just one evening meeting so that over 300 volunteers from CCK can serve at that event. On a micro-level, it is serving our smaller, local communities with the ‘Zone meetings’ that we have, and in the Small Group meetings that make up the Zones, as well as all the other activities that build community. We’re reaching out to the people who don’t yet know Jesus in such a multitude of different ways. I’m really enjoying being part of the plan for Brighton, and actively engaging the community around us. We’re not fully there yet, but God is helping us to achieve this. I enjoy being part of the grand scheme as well as getting my hands dirty.

E.S: So, do you have any influences in your life?

D.S: Jack Bauer!  Ha. He should be everybody’s influence (E.S: for the sad individuals who are not in-the-know, Jack is the invincible counter-terrorist agent in the TV series, 24). I enjoy war movies and I love Band of Brothers, I’m also looking forward to the new Series of Pacific.

E.S: Well, with your hectic job, you must enjoy your weekends! – What would be the ideal day off for you?

D.S: Well, it’s not overly exciting, but ideally I’d be sitting down, drinking a cold beer and reading a good book, maybe by John Grisham or James Patterson- something easy to read.

E.S: That sounds like  exactly what you need! Thanks very much Dan, I hope people realise just what an asset to CCK you are.

Men and Women of Honour: Tony and Claire Coggan

March 18th, 2010

Tony and Claire Coggan: A Family that loves Jesus.. Radically

Tony: I became a Christian in 1972. Before I allowed God to take control of my life, I would have said that I was a conservative, God fearing, hardworking person but who could always do better! I thought that with more effort and more self-discipline I would succeed. But I never seemed to until someone showed me that Christ, by dying on the cross, had done all the hard work for me.

One of the most exciting things I did immediately after that was to go to the Olympic Games in Munich in 1972 with YWAM. We talked to people about Jesus and after the dramatic moment of the shootings we were involved in comforting people and organising a peace march.

Then I met Claire in 1979…

Claire: I became a Christian in 1973. I was adopted at 6 weeks and grew up in Surrey. My parents were good people but I struggled to feel loved.

I was pretty messed up by the time I was a young teenager and got expelled from school at 13. When I was 16, a girl from a Brethren missionary family befriended me. She introduced me to her family and to her church. As a hippie, I stood out, but the Church drew me in and loved me unconditionally in a way I had not experienced before. This is what led me to Jesus.

Sadly, as my job required I work shifts, I found it difficult to get to Church and slowly I began to drift from God. I began to doubt God’s love for me. After a lot of tireless loving and support from some very godly people, God broke in and drew me back to himself. God healed a lot of hurts and filled me with the Holy Spirit.

I met Tony at a small Church in Horsham in 1979. Having been engaged twice before I was quite cautious about getting into a relationship. On a church weekend away, I asked God to speak to me about him. To my surprise, Tony turned up at the weekend and told me he was attracted to me! Very quickly we knew God had brought us together.

We lived in a caravan for the first year and a half of being married. We prayed for a flat and when I was 9 months pregnant with my daughter Hannah, God provided at the last moment!

When we left YWAM we were then made homeless but we trusted God and as we had a baby, the council provided us with a brand new house. It was God’s amazing provision again!

Tony:By this time we were both part of a new church that had been started in Crawley. It was a time of God laying foundations in both the Church and in our lives through excellent teaching from the Bible.

In 1989 whilst at a Church conference, I felt God say to me He was sending us to serve a Church for 6 months. After many confirmations and with three young children in tow, we set off for Pretoria, South Africa.

We didn’t have much money with us but daily we saw God provide for us and often in quite miraculous ways. One Sunday we didn’t even have money to buy milk but, by the end of the church service that day, we were invited to lunch, someone had filled the boot of our car with food and someone had written us a cheque for all our rent for the next month. That was just one of the many times God has provided for us.

Claire: Another time, our eldest son, Sam asked us for a pair of gloves. We had no money so we encouraged him to pray. The next evening, someone came for dinner and without knowing Sam’s prayer produced two sets of gloves! It was amazing to see how God demonstrated His provision to our children so personally. God used our love for the Church and our desire to pass that on to others whilst in SA.

Tony: When we came back to the UK in 1994, we began to hear God say that it was ‘time to move to a bigger church’. So we joined CCK. Initially, we knew just a few people but we felt more involved as we became part of small group life and began serving on Alpha and Beta courses. We love welcoming new people to CCK. Currently we are living in Hangleton and are part of a great small group on the Knoll Estate and have just recently been invited to join the North Hove Zone core team.

We know God has called us to serve the vision of CCK which is to be a church in the city that is affecting Brighton with the gospel.

Claire: Family means a lot to us (and now we have two grandsons; Jude and Alfie who we adore!) In the early days of being a mum I asked God to teach me to be ‘His kind’ of a mother. I was passionate about being a mum, about teaching our children about God and His word.

It was such a joy to hear my daughter tell me recently that she had prayed the same prayer that I had prayed, and to know that I had passed on something valuable.

One Sunday, many years ago, when our children were still small, we were singing a song based on a passage from the Bible about being a royal priesthood and a holy nation, I started to think of the Coggan family line and I believed that as we committed ourselves to pray for our children, the Coggans would be men and women of God! We are so grateful to God for his grace and mercy as we see each of our children and their wives loving God and walking with Him.

CCK Men’s Weekend – Fight The Good Fight Of The Faith

March 8th, 2010

When: 21st – 23rd May. Friday evening till Sunday afternoon.
Where: Chantmarle Christian Resource Centre, Dorset. DT2 0HD.
Prices: £58, £40 for 18’s and under
You can book a space on the CCK Coach for just £22

At CCK we want to gather men to a sense of mission and purpose. We want to build a church where men have their identity truly rooted in Christ and their focus on something eternal.

What we need at CCK and what the church around the world needs is Godly men, not just for the sake of the men themselves but for all. For men to become who they are intended to be by God will have enormous ramifications for the church and for our city.

Please book in today for our Men’s Weekend. It will be a hugely worthwhile time of hearing from God, worshipping together and spending lots of time with other men in the church.

We are really honoured to have two gifted teachers joining us; Matt Hosier (Gateway Church, Poole) and Rory Dyer (Glenridge Church International, Durban, South Africa). I trust both Matt and Rory will be a huge help to us.

Spaces are limited so I encourage you to book in promptly. Please note you can book in today but we won’t take the money from your account till May so don’t worry about the cashflow!
