One Hope Community Church

We wrap our series in Romans by looking at the end of Romans 8. By focusing on the work of the Spirit, the future hope we have and the power of God, we are assured of His love & grace, giving us all we need to move forward!

We get into some practical implications of Romans, as Joel unpacks our struggle with sin (chapter 7) & walking with the Spirit (chapter 8). We are reminded of the danger of sin, but encouraged to walk into life through the Spirit of God that dwells within us.

This Sunday we look at Romans 6, looking at our new identity now in Christ; we are dead to sin and raised to new life! Therefore we have a new master, and this completely changes how we live out this life and gives us hope for eternity.

We continue our series on Romans and the Power of the Gospel. In Chapter 5 we are reminded that we have peace with God, which totally changes our battle with sin and suffering.

Diving deeper into our Greater theme and seeing how our 'Hands' are an integral part of growing a greater relationship with Jesus. We look at the story of Moses, and how God uses what was in his hands, not just for His plan & purposes, but also so Moses could know God more!

This week we unpack Romans 4, looking at the example of Abraham and what his life of faith means for us. Paul makes it clear that salvation is for Jew & Gentile, and that God is able to do abundantly more than we think or imagine!

Life is hard sometimes. We all go through trying and testing times, and most of us will go through a few periods of extreme distress in our lives. When this happens we start asking a number of questions: Where is God? What is He doing? is He in control? Does He still love me? What is the purpose of my suffering? James 1:1-18 gives us a glimpse into God's heart during our trouble and it gives us th...

This week we get stuck into the good news, the righteousness of God that is revealed. Breaking down the passage, we focus on the big, key words that many of us have heard a lot, but lose their significance. We explore what it means to be justified, redeemed and atoned for.

After introducing the good news, Romans get straight into the bad news: the wrath of God is revealed against all ungodliness. We look at what this means, how God does wrath right and in the end, it is a good thing that evil is dealt with.

We begin our series on Romans, as Glenn takes us through Romans 1:1-17. We see how the gospel has power to save, removing our sin and shame and giving us a whole new life of joy and peace, as we move into right relationship with God.

We continue our series on 'Greater', working through the HEAD | HEART | HANDS. Dani takes through the heart, and how a pure heart leads to a greater connection to God and living out His Kingdom.

A message from Philippians 4:1-9

Romans 6:14-23 | With Christ's sacrifice on the cross done for us, does it matter now what we do? We will take a look at Paul's response to this in Romans 6, looking at what it means to be slaves of righteousness.

As part of the CRCA in Victoria, each church takes turn hosting a state-wide youth service. This year we have been exploring the theme of 'Living in Christ', and so Joel takes us through Galatians 2:15-21 and what this means for our daily lives.

With Numbers 13 : 25 - 14 : 10, we will look at a very specific turning point in history, when the people of Israel had to be reminded of some key spiritual truths: 1) Forgetting what God has done in the past can be dangerous 2) God’s promises are trustworthy, even in the face of seemingly impossible circumstances 3) Sometimes we are called upon to ‘see with the eyes of faith’. We will see how the...

We continue our series on GREATER and we start to look at our HEAD | HEART | HANDS - firstly HEAD and how a greater Knowledge of God works out in our walk of faith.

We celebrate Mother's Day together, but seeing how God compares His love for us with a mother. Andrew leads us as we look at Isaiah 49:8-16 and we are all reminded that we are loved and not forgotten!

We wrap our series on The Way, as Joel looks at Acts 1:1-14. We see that we have all we need to move forward in following Jesus and living The Way.

We continue our series on The Way, as Andrew picks up the story following on from Easter in Luke 24, looking at the story of Jesus' appearing on the men on the road to Emmaus and to the disciples. We see how Jesus opens our eyes to Himself by helping us understand the Scriptures.

We celebrate the resurrection of Jesus together, as Andrew Boonstra looks at Luke 24:1-12 to ask and answer the question: 'Why do you look for the living among the dead?'

We celebrate Good Friday together, remembering the sacrifice and death of Jesus. We join with the Roman Centurion, recognising that 'surely this was a righteous man'. Andrew Boonstra leads us through Luke 23:44-49 as we reflect on the cross together.

We continue our series through Luke, as Joel focuses on Luke 19 and the narrative of Palm Sunday. We see how receiving Jesus as King captures our whole lives, as we submit to His reign, allow Him to renovate and respond to Him in praise.

We explore what it means to live in Greater Community as a church. We look to the Bible for a proper definition of what this means, and focus on the 'one another' verses scattered throughout the New Testament to give us the values and principles to apply to our context.

This week we have Shane de Kretser, one of our young adults who is completing his theological studies, share on Luke 18:9-14 and how The Way is one of humility, recognising our brokenness before God, but also recognising that all grace and power comes from Him.

We kick-off a new series heading into Easter called The Way. We are looking at the book of Luke, and start off by seeing not just the challenge, but also the invitation of Jesus to lose our life and find it in Him.
