Two men, Noah and Jeremiah, stood against the ungodly flow of their culture and left an indelible mark on the future of God’s people. In the next two weeks we will hear about how we too can live successfully and effectively in a culture that is increasingly anti God. Be prepared to think, to be challenged, inspired and to have a few balloons popped!

Listen to Denise and Robert Norriss share about how we are no longer slaves to fear. Robert shares some keys to overcoming fears and Denise shares stories about using these in overcoming fears.

Hear Graham Purkis share about how we have three promises within us. These promises are like seeds they need to be planted and watered to grow…

THE KINGDOM SERIES: Part One- Shifting to the Gospel of the Kingdom Our salvation is not a ticket to put in our back pocket to sit on until we get to the pearly gates. Our salvation is rather an invitation to meet with the King TODAY! It also grants us permission to enter in as part of his great plan, where he has specific impacts for us to make in bringing the reality of the Kingdom here on Earth...

Jesus came and we see Grace personified. However, we still see many Christians trying to live under the law, trying to be good enough. However there is freedom when we realize that in Christ, the law is completely fulfilled! Not done away with, and not still condemning us, instead, totally fulfilled.

October 29: Part two, The Law: The Mosaic Covenant - John Alpe God did not want a covenant of the law. He invited all the people to come and experience his glory, but the people said no. They said you go up alone Moses. We will stay here. You come back and tell us rules to obey. Then after that covenant, the people were judged under the law they asked for; we see thousands of people dying at the h...

SERIES: Is he God of the Old Testament the same as the God of the New Testament? The bible has five key covenants that God makes at different times in history.

Our deepest condolences and sympathies to all the family and friends of Maurice.

Our deepest condolences and heartfelt sympathies to all the family and friends of Maurice.

Robert Norriss speaks to us about bringing the Kingdom of God into the market place. God choses to use us to bring God’s presence to the world. Robert shares about how people are not saved or unsaved, rather, we are all on a journey, and as Christians it is all of our responsibility to ‘shepherd’ those around us, bringing the kingdom of God to them.

September 17: What is our Highest Value? John Alpe God's presence is experience-able. Our faith in God is not simply knowledge about God, but it is a relationship - something that is actually experienced. We can experience physical effects of the presence of God – goose-bumps, heat or cold sensations, or a general atmosphere. This is part of what brings the reality of God from a head thing to a ve...
