    2 Reset The Mind Series

    Contributed by Steve Pearman on Jan 19, 2026
     | 62 views

    A reset isn’t about trying harder — it’s about putting Jesus back at the centre

    Introduction: How We See Shapes How We Live Last week we talked about resetting the heart — placing Jesus back at the centre of who we are. But what flows out of the heart quickly shapes the mind. If the heart is the centre, the mind is the lens. And how we think determines how we: • see ...read more

     | 177 views

    A reset isn’t about trying harder — it’s about putting Jesus back at the centre

    Introduction: Why We Need a Reset As we enter a new year, there’s something in all of us that longs for a fresh start. January carries that feeling of possibility — a sense that things could be different. But for many people, that feeling quickly fades. Not because they don’t care. Not because they ...read more

    Contributed by Steve Pearman on Dec 23, 2025
     | 145 views

    A follow-on message from the Christmas series. It can be preached on the Sunday after Christmas, and before the New Year

    INTRODUCTION The Sunday after Christmas is a strange one, isn’t it? The decorations are still up… the leftovers are still in the fridge… but Christmas Day itself has passed. And there’s a quiet question hanging in the air: What now? Do we gently pack Christmas away — along with its message — or ...read more

    4 More Than A Moment Series

    Contributed by Steve Pearman on Dec 17, 2025
     | 110 views

    Today we’re celebrating the real heart of Christmas with familiar carols, words about Christmas – published 100’s of years before it happened, and a message that reminds us that Christmas is more than a day on the calendar, it’s the beginning of a hope that lasts.

    PART ONE (for earlier in the service) Title: When the Moment Isn’t What You Expected Christmas is full of moments, isn’t it? Moments that we look forward to… and moments we dread. • The tree going up. • The first mince pie. • That moment of thinking “I really should have started shopping ...read more

    3 More Than Stuff Series

    Contributed by Steve Pearman on Dec 11, 2025
     | 115 views

    Christmas tells us that more presents equal more joy… but is that really true? In this message, we explore the story of the shepherds in Luke 2:1–20 and see how they discovered a joy far better than anything the world could wrap. Real joy isn’t something you open — it’s Someone you meet.

    INTRODUCTION It’s great to be able to share our Christmas series Beyond the Hype — looking at how God invites us into something so much deeper and longer-lasting than the pressure-filled version of Christmas the world often sells us. Today we’re looking at a theme we all know too well this time of ...read more

    2 More Than Perfect Plans Series

    Contributed by Steve Pearman on Dec 5, 2025
     | 684 views

    What do you do when life doesn’t go to plan? In this week’s Christmas message, we look at Joseph’s story in Matthew 1:18–25 and reminds us that even when our plans fall apart, God’s purpose still stands.

    1. Introduction – When Plans Go Wrong Have you ever had one of those perfect plans — only for it to completely fall apart? Maybe a family dinner that turned into chaos, or a Christmas trip that went sideways. I found a saying the other day, and it’s, “If you want to make God laugh, tell Him your ...read more

    1: More Than A Feeling Series

    Contributed by Steve Pearman on Nov 21, 2025
     | 166 views

    Christmas is often filled with pressure to feel joyful, peaceful, and festive — but what happens when we don’t feel it? In this message, we explore the story of Mary in Luke 1:26–38 and reminds us that real peace isn’t about how we feel, but who we trust.

    Need: Box full of Christmas decorations, a torch, a candle ________________________________________ Opening: Setting the Scene (walk up holding a box of Christmas decorations.) Well, it’s that time of year again. The Christmas adverts are on, the lights are going up, and the shops are playing ...read more

    6 Who Do You Say I Am? Series

    Contributed by Steve Pearman on Nov 7, 2025
     | 278 views

    In a world full of opinions about Jesus, we’re invited to respond personally — not with borrowed beliefs or second-hand faith, but with a heart that truly knows Him.

    Introduction – The Question that Changes Everything (Visual: Hold up a blank name badge or write “Hello, my name is _______.”) We use name badges to help people know who we are. Sometimes we do so in a new group, a workplace, or at church. It saves that awkward, “I’ve met you before but can’t ...read more

    5 Peace In A Storm Series

    Contributed by Steve Pearman on Nov 2, 2025
     | 398 views

    When life feels out of control and the waves are crashing in, where do you turn? “Peace in the Storm” from Mark 4:35–41, reminds us that even when the winds rage, Jesus is still in the boat — and His voice still speaks peace.

    Introduction – When the Storms Hit Have you ever noticed how quickly life can change from calm to chaos? One moment the sun is shining, and everything feels under control — and the next, you’re in the middle of a storm. It might be • a phone call with bad news, • a health scare, • a family ...read more

    Contributed by Steve Pearman on Nov 2, 2025
     | 189 views

    “Who Needs a Doctor?”, looks at one of the most powerful moments in Mark’s Gospel — when Jesus calls Levi, a man everyone else rejected, to follow Him.

    Introduction – The Doctor Is In Have you ever noticed how people react when they find out someone’s a doctor? Suddenly everyone’s got an ache or a rash they want to talk about! There’s something about a doctor — we know they’re there to help, to heal, to make things better. That’s exactly how ...read more

    The Gift That Keeps On Giving

    Contributed by Steve Pearman on Oct 28, 2025
     | 205 views

    A sermon on the lasting meaning of Christmas can bridge the season beautifully into the New Year, helping people carry the message beyond the festivities.

    1. The Wonder of the Incarnation – God Stepped In “The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us.” God didn’t shout love from a distance — He moved in next door. Christmas isn’t sentimental nostalgia; it’s revolutionary truth: God chose to enter our humanity. Illustration: A king removing ...read more

    • In this story, faith is not abstract. It’s active, it’s determined, and it’s creative. • Today, we look at Four friends who’s faith literally goes through the roof!

    Need: Blanket “Stretcher” Introduction – When Faith Gets Practical We often talk about faith. - I mean, we are a church! We might say things like, “Keep the faith,” or “I’ve got faith things will work out.” But what does faith actually look like in real life? Just like I say that Love is ...read more

    Contributed by Steve Pearman on Oct 7, 2025
     | 280 views

    Jesus calls His first disciples with just two words: “Follow me.” What did this mean for them — and what does it mean for us today?

    Need: Car Keys, Trainer shoes ________________________________________ Introduction – The Power of an Invitation A man once received an invitation to what he thought was a fancy dress party.

     | 282 views

    At the start of a new series, we look at Jesus coming to bring the good news of the Kingdom

    Introduction – Beginnings Matter Have you noticed how much beginnings matter? The first line of a book, the opening scene of a film, the first note of a song — they set the tone for everything that follows. The beginning is like opening a door. If you do it with energy, warmth, and purpose, ...read more

    What if your life was designed for something more than comfort or survival? Discover how knowing God leads to knowing your purpose—and how to start living it today

    Introduction Last week we asked the question: Are we drifting or are we driven? We saw from Ecclesiastes that drifting through life without God leaves us empty. But Jesus came to give life to the full. Today we’re going to take the next step and ask: What does it mean to live on purpose? Because ...read more
