Looking ahead to a new year, this message from James 4–5 reminds us that our plans are never ultimate — God is. We’re invited to hold our hopes with humility, trust God’s sovereignty, and endure hardship with patient confidence in his mercy. Whether the year feels full of optimism or heavy with struggle, James calls us to strengthen our hearts and rest in the compassion of the Lord who holds our f...

Blake retells the Christmas story through a simple idea everyone understands: we make messes we can’t clean up ourselves. Tracing God’s promises through the Bible, this message shows how Jesus fits every clue of the promised King — born to fix what humanity broke. Christmas is good news because Jesus steps into our mess, restores our relationship with God, and promises to make all things right.

Trav zooms out on the Christmas story through John’s Gospel and the carol  Hark! The Herald Angels Sing . Christmas isn’t about strange visits or sentimental moments — it’s about God becoming one of us to bring light, life, and reconciliation. This message traces the bigger picture of why Jesus came and invites us to move from just hearing the song to joining the triumph it announces.

This Church Plus, Tim explores the carol  O Come, O Come, Emmanuel  and shows why Jesus is the greatest Christmas gift of all. Emmanuel means “God with us,” and Tim explains how Jesus didn’t just arrive as a symbol, but as God Himself, coming to open the way back to God for us. What may seem small or insignificant at first turns out to be the most valuable gift imaginable — God with us, here to sa...

Craig unpacks the words of  O Holy Night  and asks whether we’ve really understood what we sing every Christmas. Beneath the carol’s poetry is a bold claim: the world is broken, a Saviour has come, and real peace is being offered. This message explores what Jesus has already done, what he promises to do, and why Christmas only makes sense when the Saviour becomes  your  Saviour — not just a nice i...

In this Christmas message, Blake uses the story of  The Grinch  to help us see the deeper longings we all feel — to be known, loved, forgiven, and never alone. Like the Grinch, we’ve all pushed God away and damaged the relationship we were created for. But the true Christmas story is far better: God comes to us in Jesus to offer forgiveness, restore what’s broken, and reconnect us to Himself. Chri...

In this sermon, Terry shows that true faith isn’t blind risk-taking — it’s trust in Jesus that responds to His word. Looking at Peter walking on water, we see that faith steps out when Jesus calls, even when it feels costly or uncomfortable. And though Peter falters when he looks at the waves instead of Jesus, he’s never beyond Jesus’ saving grip. Faith grows as we keep our eyes on Him and follow...

To start our Faith Series, Trav unpacks what the Bible really means by  faith —not blind optimism or a leap into the dark, but  trust based on evidence . Looking at Hebrews 11, Trav shows that God invites us to investigate, question, and follow the evidence that leads us to a real relationship with Him. Faith isn’t just believing ideas about God; it’s learning to trust the God who has proven Himse...

In this sermon, our mission partner  Lachlan  opens God’s word to show how Jesus meets us in our confusion and doubt and calls us into a faith that shapes our everyday lives. He reminds us that real faith is not passive but active — trusting Jesus enough to follow Him, obey Him, and join His mission in the world.

In this sermon, Craig concludes our  Vision Series  by unpacking what it means to be  devoted  to Jesus and to the good works that flow from knowing Him. From Titus 3, he shows that salvation is entirely the work of God—His mercy, not our effort. Through Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection, and the renewing work of the Holy Spirit, we’re made new people—washed, renewed, and transformed. Because o...

In this sermon, Craig continues our  Vision Series  by exploring what it truly means to be  transformed  in response to God’s mercy. From Romans 12:1–2, he reminds us that worship isn’t limited to singing or Sunday services—it’s offering our  whole lives  to God as a living sacrifice. When we see the depth of God’s mercy in Jesus, we’re called to resist being shaped by the values of this age and i...

In this sermon Craig continues our Vision Series by exploring Colossians 3 and the call to live as people who have been raised with Christ. He explains that following Jesus means taking off the old self — the earthly ways of living marked by greed, lust, anger, and pride — and putting on the new self shaped by compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. We are to seek the things abov...

In this sermon, Craig begins our Vision Series by exploring how real transformation happens — not through willpower, self-improvement, or trying harder, but through seeing and treasuring Jesus. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 3, Craig shows that true and lasting change comes as we fix our eyes on the glory of Christ. When we behold Him, the Spirit transforms us from the inside out — from glory to glory...

In this Sermon Craig continues our series,  Asking for a Friend , exploring how Jesus accomplishes extraordinary things through ordinary people. Drawing from Luke chapters 6–10, he shows how Jesus carefully trains, equips, and empowers his disciples—ordinary fishermen, tax collectors, and zealots—to teach, heal, and transform lives. Craig emphasizes that God’s plan often starts small, investing in...

In this message, Craig explores what the Bible says about  rest and sleep . While our culture glorifies business, Scripture reminds us that God never sleeps, but we do — and that’s by design. Sleep humbles us, shows us we’re not God, and points us to the greater rest we have in Christ. Salvation is not earned by our work but received as a gift of grace. Because God is always at work, we can rest —...

In Luke 9:51–62, Craig unpacks what it means to truly follow Jesus. As Jesus resolutely sets his face toward Jerusalem — knowing he will suffer and die — he shows himself to be both the promised King and the suffering Servant. Along the way, would-be followers reveal common excuses: comfort, delay, and divided hearts. Jesus challenges us to count the cost and follow him with everything we’ve got....

In this message from Luke 9, Craig unpacks the transfiguration of Jesus. The disciples see a glimpse of Jesus’ true glory as God’s chosen King — but they struggle to understand what it means. With Moses and Elijah pointing to Jesus’ greater rescue — his “Exodus” at the cross — God speaks clearly:  “This is my Son, the Chosen One. Listen to Him.”  We are reminded that Jesus defines himself, not us,...
