Surprised by Suffering?
As we begin a series of messages from 1 Peter we familiarise ourselves with the story behind the letter. Peter writes to Christians who suffer in various ways for their faith, and who will undergo greater suffering in the future. God in His providence gives them the help they need through this letter so that they may be secure in His grace and not give in to fear. We examine the role of fear and worry in our own lives and discover that we too need help to be freed from being controlled by fear...

Sowing Generously: Our Part in the Global Body o...
As we send a team to the Philippines on a 2 week church-building mission, we take the opportunity to study principles of sowing resources into the work of God's Kingdom. We expose the poisonous error of the prosperity gospel which promises personal wealth and instead rejoice in the genuine promise of God to richly provide all we need in order to do what He calls us to do.

1st to 21st
Since the very beginning, Jesus? priorities for the church have always been the same ? to be a healthy, growing community that honors God in both word & deed. From Jesus? own mouth come 2 of the most telling statements of His will for us. The ?Great Commandment? in Matthew 22 tells us to love God & to love others, while the ?Great Commission? tells us to make new disciples, include them in the life of the church, and to be transformed in obedience through the truth. The way we do it in the 21s...

How to Have a Great Christmas
In the final message of our Christmas series, we add tinsel and treats to our tree. The Tinsel reminds us of the humility of the Saviour?s birth. If He had chosen to come as a king He would have needed to rule justly, treating us as we deserve. The Baubles we added to the tree on the previous week remind us that we have all sinned against God, and the penalty that our sins deserve is death. Jesus as King would need to pass judgement.However He did not come to function as a King, He came to pla...

The Lure of Sin
The Light of the World shows us who God is, but He also reveals who we are. Part of that is good news - we are people made in the image of God. Part of it is bad news - we have been corrupted by sin. There is a part of us that is attracted by things that we know are wrong, even though we are aware that the consequences of sin are disastrous.In this message we explore some practical biblical instruction for how we can turn away from the lure of sin in order to live the life Jesus came to give u...

Jesus is the Light of the World
Having established in the previous message that God is by nature relational - He exists in a perfect love relationship with Father, Son and Spirit - we now move on to explore Jesus as the One who reveals God to us. We can share in the love relationship that exists within God Himself as we believe and receive the truth that is found in Jesus. This truth not only reveals who God is, but who we are and how we can be reconciled to God.

Three's A Crowd?
The Doctrine of the Trinity is a mystery that is beyond our understanding, yet it is something that God desires us to know about Himself. In this message we discover some of the Biblical evidence for the fact that there is only one God, yet He exists simultaneously in three persons - Father, Son and Spirit. This perfect state of relationship is a picture for us of what we will enjoy for all eternity - a love relationship of complete unity, unbroken by sin.

Are You Robbing God?
"Will a man rob God?" That's the question God Himself asks the people of Israel through the prophet Malachi. We allow God to ask us the same question centuries later as we read it in His Word. We discover that just like the Israelites of Malachi's day, we can have a low view of God which causes us to neglect to worship Him as He deserves. We can lose sight of the fact that everything belongs to Him, we can forget our own dependence upon Him and we can doubt our accountability to Him. However a...

Prayer pt 2 - What Should We Pray?
In this message we explore the Lord's Prayer as a guide for the content of our own prayer. Jesus' example of prayer for His disciples is rich in meaning and helps us to develop our own prayer life in a healthy and effective way. We also take time to explore James 5:13-18 - a passage that speaks beautifully of the power of prayer, but is often sadly misused and misunderstood to reinforce an attitude and expectation in prayer which only fosters self-centredness and ultimately leads to disillusio...

Prayer pt 1 - How Should We Pray?
Using Jesus' teaching on prayer from Matthew 6, we look at some fundamental issues concerning prayer - what is prayer and how should we pray? We discover that prayer is a much bigger concept than many people realise. It goes beyond the literal meaning of simply asking God for what we want or need, to become a lifestyle of intimate and appropriate communication with God.
