The Sermon on the Mount finishes with 2 roads, 2 trees and 2 houses, that all make the same point.  This week, what way will you choose? Will you choose the way of life? Our choice matters.

Exercising judgement and passing judgement are two different things. This message challenges us to resist the judgement of another person's heart and challenges the judgementalism about ourselves which leads to condemnation.

"What worries you in the dark is nothing to be afraid of in the light".  In this message Trent explores the words of Jesus in Matthew 6:25-34 where Jesus exposes what worry is attached to, exposes what it is and offers the cure.

Our attitude to material wealth is not a peripheral concern to Jesus, but rather a central aspect of how we live as Kingdom citizens. Discover the importance of the location of our treasures, because where your treasure is will be where your heart is.

3,000 were slain by the sword if the law at Mt Sinai. 3,000 were baptised into the new covenant n the day of Pentecost and became the first church. Here we look at the four practices the first church devoted themselves to. 

This message looks at Matthew 5:33-37. Here Jesus is calling us to have honesty with our words and simplicity with our speech, that our words are trustworthy and that our words build others up.  We are reminded that where our words might fail, God's words never fail. He means what He says. 

Here we look at what Jesus says in Matthew 5:38-48 where Jesus challenges the script of our age (alongside Leviticus 24:17-22 and 1 Peter 2:23-24). We are reminded that will power is not the answer, rather we need a reframing of our minds. It takes a deep abiding in Christ to live as Jesus did.

Here we look at Jesus's words in Matthew 6:1 where He talks of practicing our righteousness. This serves as an introduction to 3 spiritual practices that will help us grow in our faith - when you give, when you pray and when you fast. What we practice is what we become.

Here in Matt 5:31-32 Jesus is condemning the practice of treating women as property and not people. Men are to grant women grace and honour as fellow heirs, who bear the image of Christ.

This message concludes with talking about what marriage...

This message takes a look at Matthew 5:21-26. With the coming of Jesus there is a new way of doing things. We are challenged to consider the things we are to think on and to consider who is our brother? Maturing in Christ is the aim, with the narrow way leading to life.

The world says that if we have a longing you should have it met - a culture of immediate gratification. Religion sees our desires as bed - a culture of repression and suppression. This message takes a look at Matthew 5:27-30 and helps us to find Kingdom solutions for life situations.

Following Jesus and living the Beatitudes leads to divine life but it also leads to persecution. The final Beatitude is not limited to those who suffer violent persecution; to be rejected and ridiculed and misunderstood is part of living the Jesus way. This final beatitude comes with the same blessing as the first.

The 8th Day is part of the Passion Week around Easter. Here where learn that the the 8th Day is where new creation breaks into the old with promises of forgiveness and life. 

By calling His followers salt and light Jesus is saying that we are vital to the world as a preserving agent in society, restraining corruption and shining as a visible witness.  We are challenged to consider that salt loosing its saltiness is equivalent to Christians loosing their Christlikeness.

Here we are encouraged to understand that the language of Christianity is that something has already been done; Christ has done for us what we could not do for ourselves. Our salvation is not based on us being good. Our salvation is based on God being good.

The Beatitudes reveal the personality and the heart of Jesus. This 5th Beatitude “Blessed are the Merciful” tells us that blessed are the ones who show loyal love and grace” Unique to this Beatitude is the fact that it is the only Beatitude where the blessing and the promise match. When we extend mercy to others this positions our being to be in a place of receiving God’s mercy and healing in our...

Learn how to live with inner peace.

Here Trent looks at "What does meekness look like?" and "What does it mean to inherit the earth?"  We learn that meekness means full of power, but restraining that power for the sake of love.  When Jesus says the meek will inherit the earth He is directly quoting Ps 37 which is all about God's plan to elevate the poor and oppressed and the unimportant,

Here we are reminded that Blessed means "How fortunate". We learn that God is mighty to save and that our righteousness does not depend on what we do but on what God has done. Will we hunger and thirst to know Him?
