What can empower us as Christians to live radical lives? Statistics show that Christians don’t look different to the world around. This is a sad reality. In Romans 8, Paul talks about the wonderful identity that we have as Christians and then encourages us to see that, since we are adopted children, we need to act differently to the world. In this sermon, Nicolas Kyalangalilwa both shows us the jo...

Acts 1:1 - 5. What is the church? Many people have different views on this subject but almost no one will see the church as God's idea. If anything, the church is man's response to worshipping God. In this sermon, Roydon shows how the entire Trinity is active in the foundation of the church and how Jesus specifically worked and taught to one day bring it about. Thus, the church is not only God's i...

In Mark Chapter 3 we find different responses to Jesus by different people and spirits. These groups include the crowd, , apostles, Jesus’s enemies and the evil spirits. Crowds never committed to Jesus but there were either fans or spectators. The evil spirits are aroused to displeasure, they know Jesus’s identity and what he came to do but they had no intention to submit to him. The apostles list...

Why is this song so popular, why does it capture the culture of our age, what does it say about our age, and how does it relate to our Christian Faith? What is the problem with our culture today! We give in to a lie and worship the thing, rather than the creator, God! We have replaced God who is supposed to be at the centre of our life, with something that we choose to worship! What we pour and lo...

Listening to a cold playing song about a Hymn for the Weekend, it becomes apparent that so many are looking for an angelic figure in their lives to fulfil a thirst that can never be quenched, unless… Christ Jesus offered the Samaritan Woman at the Well Living Water, to quench the one and only thirst that we all experience before letting Christ into our life and tasting salvation. Join us as Pastor...

Pain and suffering is real in our world. Ps 74 is God song to his redeemed people to give them hope in this painful time of suffering. The Lord answer in PS74 to mankind’s question of “why are we suffering” is relational. I do Care He says and my actions show that. The question is will you trust Me in your suffering?

What is so deceptive about the comedy series, The Good Place, on Netflix? Surely it’s harmless, especially as there is no SNL? Is there ever a good time to have a church punch-up? Isn’t Jesus the Prince of Peace? What is wrong with switching the Assets and Liabilities on a Balance Sheet? If I go to church, give to charity, pray and read the Bible, what if I even give blood, won’t that qualify me f...

Christmas 2021 Part 4 - What’s in a Name? - Roydon Frost by Christ Church Midrand

Here is the sermon description: Christmas may not be 'Joy to The World' for many who have lost loved ones. Christmas, more than any other time of the year, is time of family.

In today's sermon, Gareth looks at a Naomi in the book of Ruth who has lost her entire family. His desire...

How does life look like at your work place or home, can your workmates or relatives take a bullet for you? In most cases that does not always happen, but we all long for such a society where we serve one another. Jesus establishes a kingdom that transforms Christians to live a life of service to others. In this sermon David Kobedi explains how life begins when individuals rise above self as they a...

Most of us are going through the most. If we may describe our lives in word, the best word would be ‘Pressure’. What happens when we are under pressure is that we begin to hoard the little we have. The coming of Jesus must our posture. In 2 Corinthians 8 Paul mentions that Jesus became poor so that sinners can have a relationship with God. If we have tasted Christ’s generosity it should cause us t...

What is Christmas all about? We know it's not centred on the gifts, or the message of 'A time of sharing' which we so often hear, but we all know it has something to do with a baby being born 2000 years ago. The question is, what was so great about that birth? Philippians 2 has the answer and David unpacks it in such a way that you are left truly understanding why Christmas is such an unbelievable...
