Maitland Church

Rob launches our Acts preaching series, encouraging us that Acts is about what Jesus continued to do and teach His church. We are encouraged to pursue Jesus fully, expecting to close the gap between the Acts church and the church today.

Rob speaks about the need for the church to have a renewed confidence in God, the Word of God, the deeds of God, the desires of God and the things of God, as well as recalibrating our lives to align with God’s kingdom.

On the brink of a new year, Dave asks an honest question: will we stand still, look back, or trust God enough to move forward in faith.

When was the first time God spoke to someone in the New Testament? In a part of the Christmas story often overlooked by nativity plays, the divine silence is broken and joy is coming!

We round up our Real Jesus Series by looking at Jesus as the King. Was Jesus legitimately a King or was it just an unfounded claim, a delusion? Today, does Jesus Christ genuinely have all authority and sit on the throne of Heaven? If true, how do we respond?

The Real Jesus is fully God AND full human. Geff speaks about how God would make himself a human being like us, and why it was necessary that he did!

People want a Jesus who fits in with what they think is best for them: the influencer Jesus, the life coach, the motivational speaker or the religious celebrity. Central to His identity, however, is that the Real Jesus is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.

Could you even begin to imagine what it must mean for a human to be completely pure, sinless and perfect? Words like 'holiness' and 'righteousness' are lost on us in our culture but are at the heart of who Jesus is.

What words would you use to describe what God is really like? In Matthew 11, Jesus allows us to peer to the deepest depths of His heart where we find gentleness and lowliness.

Dave preaches from John 15 about the real Jesus not being merely figure from the past but the true vine who we can be connected to today, the one who brings us life and fruitfulness.

Christine shares a really powerful and vulnerable devotion at Worship Nights about waiting on God from a place of trust.

Rob invites us to consider the claims of Jesus, the eyewitnesses of Jesus and the Biblical accounts to discover who the real Jesus really is. Today, we wonder about what it would mean for Jesus to really be God himself, as He claimed.

Which Jesus do you know? The culturally palatable Jesus? The all-affirming Jesus? The over-tolerant Jesus? The Jesus portrayed in another religion? Or do you know the Real Jesus? Rob explores who the Real Jesus is and how we can have confidence in Him.

In a world that falsely promises light, life freedom, and truth through different religions, opinions, philosophies and ideologies, Jesus steps in and offers himself as the only one who can truly give those things. What do you make of that? In this preach, we’re diving into a powerful dialogue between Jesus and the Pharisees, where Jesus reveals the reality of our rejection of Him, and where Jesus...

Buddy Owen comes to share about the work of Tearfund, as well as to stir the church for the transformative power of the Gospel as the church reaches the physical, emotional, relational and spiritual needs in the community.

On this baptism Sunday, Rob preaches on the resurrection and how we can know that it was true! Do you believe it?

Life is hard. We face discouragement, disappointment, and unanswered prayers. But what if our suffering isn't a sign that God has abandoned us? This week's preach from Psalm 77 challenges us to be honest with God about our pain, while also reminding ourselves of his unwavering faithfulness.

Russ preaches about evangelism, giving biblical and practical advice for how to share the Gospel effectively in the world.

Just as we are created to physically crave water to quench our thirst, we have thirsty souls that need satisfying. Where are you searching to satisfy? Jesus showed the woman at the well that He had exactly what she had been searching for, and that she had been looking in places that would only ever prove empty. True satisfaction is found in Christ.

How do we live in the way that God has called us to live, especially if we're feeling unequipped, anxious or lacking in some way? Matt shares that God provides what we need, when we need it, if we trust Him.

Peace making is at the heart of the Gospel and a value of the Kingdom of God. Rob preaches about how the God of peace (Jehovah Shalom) has given us a gospel of peace where we receive peace with God and are filled with the Spirit of peace. It is only by the Spirit of God that we can truly pursue the peace that God is looking for, since it is the God of Peace Himself who fills, empowers and enables...

Andy Dykes lifts our gaze to Jesus in a way that leads us to a greater expression of worship. Listen, be blessed, and worship our King!

Geff encourages us to endure the difficult moments where God seems silent, to pursue repentance and faithful obedience and to look to the One who brings breakthrough, the Overcomer, the God of victory!

Guest speaker Josh Keiley leads us through the book of Jonah, helping us to see Jesus as the greater Jonah and leading us to deeper love for the Gospel and desire for the lost.
