Wonder Walks is a genuine all-age interactive handbook to help you read, think and talk about the Easter story as you go on a walk. Eight different walks take you from Jesus’ triumphal entrance into Jerusalem to his death and resurrection.

This booklet is your handy guide while you are out and about, giving you short readings, task and questions to consider as you walk.

Each day offers a simple invitation to give, bless, and grow in generosity – one act at a time.

From the Inside Out is free, easy to host and ideal for small groups and as a Lent course.

‘The materials are good too - warmly and gently presented, with plenty of supporting material (I particularly appreciated the workbook/devotional to do alongside). There is some life-changing stuff in Inside Out.’

This year’s resources have at their heart the theme of a ‘rhythm of life’ – habits and patterns which help us grow as disciples of Christ day by day, especially as we prepare to celebrate the great mystery of God’s saving love at Easter. 

This year’s Lent and Easter resources are designed to help you lead services that are rooted in Scripture and alive with hope. Each week focuses on a simple shift: letting go of fear, control, scarcity, or appearances, and embracing spirit, abundance, dignity, and joy.

Alongside worship outlines, you’ll find weekly spiritual practices that help people pause, breathe, and rediscover what matters most – through simple habits that nurture faith beyond Sunday.

Our intergenerational Easter Service outline is full of ideas to help you celebrate together. Digging deeply into Mark’s account of what happened at the tomb on Easter Sunday morning, it gives space to think, talk, create, and explore what this story means for us all today. The Ascension and Pentecost All-age service plans help people of all ages continue exploring what happened after Jesus’ rose again.

Join Nathan and Maria as we explore Easter together in this fun and creative retelling of the Easter story!

Episode 1 – Palm Sunday: In this episode, we’re dropped into the bustling streets of first-century Jerusalem! Why is there a big parade happening, and who’s at the centre of all the excitement?

Episode 2 – Good Friday: This episode dives into how and why Jesus gets “cancelled” on everyone’s first-century socials. How did the celebrated teacher go from being cheered in the streets to being arrested in less than a week?

Episode 3 – Easter Sunday: Our hosts—and everyone in first-century Jerusalem—are in for a big, wonderful surprise. How does this good news spread across the city and around the world?
