Visit every station

Methodists describe the Christian life as the journey of a lifetime, with twelve stations along the way.

We believe God invites every person to explore all twelve stations, because each one opens up a different way of responding to God’s love. We do not expect anyone to live these perfectly. Instead, we practise them as honestly as we can, trusting God’s grace and help as we go.

Home stations

Some stations may feel familiar, comfortable or deeply life‑giving. They might feel like a natural fit, something you are drawn to, or a place where faith feels settled and secure. We often call these our home stations. A home station may connect with a sense of vocation, but it can also reflect something quieter or simpler that anchors your faith.

Growth stations

Other stations may feel unfamiliar, stretching or even unsettling. These can be places we would rather avoid because engaging with God there feels hard or risky. Yet they may also be places where something new is beginning to grow. We call these growth stations. Growth stations can feel exciting or terrifying, but they are often where faith deepens and changes, helping us to discover more of God and more of ourselves.
