This week’s sermon was given by Elisha DaCosta, who beautifully reminds us that Jesus is accessible to us, whatever our needs may be. Elisha elaborates that Jesus, the miracle worker, has freely given us salvation through His death and resurrection. Knowing these things about Jesus reminds us that we are loved, cared for and chosen. The story of the man with leprosy shows us just how much God…
This week Jonny Rudd theologically breaks down Luke 5:1-11. In Luke 5:1–11, Simon Peter’s encounter with Jesus transforms his understanding of who Jesus is—from “Master” to “Lord.” But the encounter doesn’t stop with Peter. The men in his boat move from colleagues to fellowship as they share in the same life-changing experience. Jonny explores what happens when an encounter with Jesus reshapes not…
This sermon, given by Tim Khoo, encourages the church to "take the roof off". Through theological and philosophical reflection, Tim challenges believers to consider what this means in practice. He explains that we can unknowingly contain and limit God in our own thinking. Rather than trying to manage God, Tim encourages us to receive Him by allowing Jesus to lead and direct every area of our…
This week's sermon was delivered by Nick Wood, who used the analogy of a wedding day and marriage to illustrate the covenant between the Israelites and God. Nick explained that the covenant established in the Old Testament revealed its limitations, as it was impossible for the Israelites to keep God's Law through their own strength. Their relationship with God depended on their ability to remain…
Last week, Phil Hopgood explored Exodus 23 and helped us understand that the laws given in Exodus can be challenging. However, he encouraged us by reminding us that, as we journey with God and grow in understanding His expectations, the transformation He desires in us takes time. Using several examples from Exodus, Phil showed how these laws can challenge our thinking and beliefs. Ultimately,…
This sermon was given by Phil Hopgood, who thoughtfully unpacks Exodus 21. Phil reminds us that some of the topics and laws found in the Bible are genuinely challenging and require believers to wrestle with God's heart towards His people. He encourages us not to shy away from difficult questions, reminding us that wrestling with and questioning God's Word is okay. As believers, we are called to…
This sermon was delivered by Lally Wood, who speaks about the Ten Commandments and how they should be applied in our daily lives. Lally reminds us that the Ten Commandments remain just as relevant for believers today. Because they are so familiar, it can be easy to overlook their significance or dismiss them as simply part of the Old Testament law. However, as followers of Christ, we are…
In this sermon, Owen Hylton encourages us to consider how we worship the Lord. He speaks about what it means for believers to worship God and emphasises that our acts of worship do not earn us acceptance before Him. Instead of either trying to keep the law in our own strength or abusing the grace given through the cross, we are called to look to God and trust in Him.
The sermon was delivered by Frank Ocampo, who challenged us to reflect on our community and the way we pray for it, particularly regarding the decisions made within the church and in our wider workplaces and society. Drawing on the account of Moses and his father-in-law, Jethro, Frank explored Jethro’s advice for Moses to seek support from others while continuing to pray for the people, asking God…
