    A Christmas Eve sermon focussing us to seeing Jesus amongst our messy lives

    Isn’t the Christmas story a wonderful story? It is a story that we hear every year. But it is more than just any old story. It is something that happened in history that affects you today and that affects your future. When we open our eyes and ears, and be honest with ourselves, we realise that ...read more

    Sermon # 12 - What Is Our Identity? Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 26, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 762 views

    When Jonah revealed his true identity, the other seafarers must have been astounded. We as a church are called to let the world know that the God we believe and worship is the true and living God, creator of heaven and earth and let’s not miss the opportunity to do so.

    We read in Jonah 1:8, Then the men said to Jonah, "It is your fault that this terrible thing is happening to us. Tell us, what have you done? What is your job? Where do you come from? What is your country? Who are your people?" (ERV) The word of God came to Jonah to go to Nineveh, but ...read more

    Paul tells us to present our bodies as living sacrifices. How are we transformed into a living sacrifice and live that out? Consider these thoughts from our Family Minister Scott Jewell

    Read passage and pray. For the month of January, we’re preaching on the theme of Collide. The idea is that the ways of God often collide with the ways of the world. How do we conduct ourselves to align with God and point the world to Him? Last week, Jeff shared how to stand firm, today, ...read more

    Our Everyday Need For God

     | 10,947 views

    Most people, Christians included, use prayer like a fire extinguisher. They only use it when there's a fire. Truth is we have an need for God every moment of our lives.

    When do you need God? Most people (Christians included) only reserve God for the “this-is-so-tough-I-can’t-do-this-without-you-God” moments of life such as when life-threatening sickness comes, death visits us, or financial anxieties take control of our lives, or when career ...read more

    The healing that Christ has provided is much broader than the physical. He took those stripes on His back so you and I could be well in every area of our lives.

    This seemingly random selection of exhortations follows on from Hebrews 12:29, and represents our part in the refining process which God is working in our lives (cf. Ephesians 4:1).

    OUR PART IN THE REFINING PROCESS. Hebrews 13:1-8; Hebrews 13:15-16. I. PRACTICAL LOVE (Hebrews 13:1-3). 1. “Brotherly love” (Hebrews 13:1).

     | 2,755 views

    In this message we examine what Jesus said about how we should treat our enemies. This follows what we covered last week where Jesus talked about how we should be willing to turn the other cheek. To be a part of His kingdom, we must learn to love our enemies.

    Living in the Kingdom 12 Scripture: Matthew 5:43-48; 7:12; Leviticus 19:18; James 4:17 In my message last week I shared with you what Jesus said about turning the other cheek and going the extra mile without being asked.

    James teaches about the principles we must follow within our Christians lives. He teaches us how to live by faith and the law of the Lord. These principles are what separate us from the world, for we are children of God.

    Our Christian Faith So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath. - James 1:19 Today, let us meditate on the title of ‘Christian Faith’.

    Life in the spiritual world is complicated by the fact that we still live in a physical one. How do we do this? That’s what Jesus came to tell us.
