All of us have had people who have influenced us to be the people we are today, and now it is our turn to invest in others. In this message Nathan looks at how the Apostle Paul invested in people from 1 Corinthians 4:14-17.

What motivates you to be godly? There may be a number reasons why you chose to live a life that honours Jesus. In this message Nathan looks at Colossians 3:1-14 which gives us one reason for Godliness.

In Luke 17 we read the story of the 10 lepers who are healed by Jesus, but only one returns to say thank you. Jesus has done something much greater for us that healing our bodies, he has given us new life through His death and resurrection. How do we respond to this new life that Jesus gives us?

Ken speaks to us about keeping the One thing the One thing.

In life we can go many difficult situations. Some of the most difficult can be the result of other people treating us poorly. When that happens it is normal for us to feel hurt, rejected or even worthless. This message looks at why we should forgive others for the pain they have hurt us.

Most Christians find evangelism to be very difficult. However in life we naturally share with others important events in our lives. If we are deliberate in Encountering God, the natural thing for us to do is to share what God is doing in our lives does with others. Which makes evangelism easy and natural.
