Sunnyhill Church Messages

This Pentecost Sunday, we explored what it means to live  in the flow  of the Holy Spirit—attuned, obedient, and ready to move wherever God leads. Drawing from Joshua 3 and the miraculous crossing of the Jordan, we were reminded that when God calls us forward, it often looks different than before—but always demands faith. If you’re ready to stop playing it safe and step into the new thing God is d...

Today, Sophie discusses how important forgiveness is for our walk with Jesus and highlights a passage from 1 Peter which says that Jesus set us an example as to how to not retaliate and even blessing the person you're forgiving. This whole concept is so counter cultural but it is integral to thriving as a christian. Forgiveness isn't just for the opposing party, it's for us to let go of the bitter...

In this heartfelt message, Adam reflects on loss, hope, and the power of stepping into God's presence with expectation. Drawing from Joshua 3 and Isaiah 43, he calls the church to  Dive In... on purpose —to live attuned to the Spirit, ready for the new and extraordinary things God is preparing. It’s a stirring encouragement to consecrate ourselves, elevate our faith, and move with God into unk...

This week's message is about  choosing life —making godly decisions in both the big and small moments of our lives. Drawing from Deuteronomy 30, Kevin shares how choosing to live, love, listen to God's voice, and hold fast to Him leads to blessing and deeper relationship with God. Through personal stories and Scripture, we're reminded that love is a choice, obedience brings life, and w...

In this powerful and personal message, Aline shares her testimony of God’s faithfulness, from unexpected miracles to life-changing revelations about purpose. With passion and humour, she unpacks how we can walk in God's purpose, recognize its enemies, and live a life that glorifies Him through relationship, transformation, love, and trust—even in trials. Be encouraged, challenged, and reminded...

Today we see how God speaking prophetically changed Pastor Dom's message in a single moment and explored the idea of how not choosing life is actually choosing death. We see that we can take time with God to analyse a problem, where it's rooted and what we can do to uproot these things.

This week, we dive into the powerful story of Mary, Martha, and Lazarus—where delays feel like letdowns, but God’s timing reveals something far greater. Through laughter, honesty, and a few confessions about reading glasses and fence fires, we explore how faith holds steady even when answers seem absent. Don’t miss this heart-hitting message about trust, eternal purpose, and the God who shows up r...

Today we again discuss the idea of what it means to ‘choose life’ and how community can edify us and keep us accountable in our walk with Jesus. Various scriptures point to God’s intention for us to be in community, most notably in Genesis when God says ‘Let us make man in our own image’. This references the very nature of the Trinity modelling community. 

Today we again discuss the idea of what it means to ‘choose life’ and how daily obedience and habitually getting into the word is a big part of that. A few key points from the sermon are: Obedience requires sacrifice and its not about control or an earning of love but its an expression of love. God’s commands are not a cage, they are a compass.

Life is short, but eternity is forever — are you living with that in mind?  In this powerful message, Fabiano shares a personal story of loss that sparked deep reflection on purpose, legacy, and what it truly means to seek God’s kingdom first. Join us as we explore how loving Jesus the King, His Church, and the lost can impact not just your life... but eternity.

Today we discuss the idea of what it means to ‘choose life’. We look at a passage from Deuteronomy 30:19 which essentially says you have now seen Life and Death, Blessings and Curses, So choose life! In society, we are faced with tens of thousands of decisions daily. But Choosing Jesus is the only one that matters ultimately. We should choose Jesus every day because He says; ‘I am the vine and you...

Pastor Fru explores the theme of being 'Directed on Purpose' in our lives. God is the ultimate choreographer. Just as a choreographer designs a beautiful, intricate dance, God lovingly leads each of us into a unique, complex, and abundant expression of His good will -  taking us from what is actual and towards what is possible… What does your abundance look like?

Today we talk about the greatest miracle of all time, Jesus' sacrifice on the cross, the Resurrection and the forgiveness of sins. The Empty Grave not only points to God's power but also to what God has planned for us, resurrection on this side of eternity. But in order to be resurrected, there has to be a death: We have to die to ourselves and be born again.

This Easter Sunday, discover Joy! We see how Jesus' ultimate destination wasn't just the cross or even the resurrection, but the complete restoration of our relationship with God —  His joy becomes ours . It's a message packed with parables, laughter, and powerful truth that’ll shoot adrenaline into your soul and joy into your week!

Today, guest preacher Jake Parker discusses the concept of feeling like we are in-between a rock and a hard place vs building our lives on the Rock of ages, that is Jesus. We read from Mark 11 to see the fruitless fig tree as a representation of the Pharisees, Outwardly seeming to do and know a lot, but inwardly bearing no fruit. Jake then made thew contrast about our society and saw how even back...

This Palm Sunday message,  Departing on Purpose , dives into the story of Jesus riding into Jerusalem not by accident—but with intentional, prophetic purpose (and yes, on a baby donkey!).  With humour, heart, and a few childhood head injuries, we explore how Jesus’ journey challenges us to stop “parking” in places we were only meant to pass through.  Whether it’s comfort, grief, success, or fear—t...

Today, guest preacher Phil Coleman discusses and contrasts the parallels between the transfiguration in Matthew 17:1-8 and the crucifixion. Jesus' divine glory was literally shining on the mountain top with Elijah and Moses, making these two big prophets look 'normal' in comparison, but then Jesus was exposed to the world on the other mountain and was shamed as He bore the weight of ou...

Today, Dan continues our 'On Purpose' series by looking at how we need to be purposeful about being disciplined. We don't want to rely on our own limited abilities and we will truly grow as we submit ourselves to God's instructions and teaching. Living under his grace (Like the Apostle Paul) is the free-est and best place to live.

Today, Helen Goldenberg preaches on what it means to live life in the victory that God calls us to live in and how, as a church, He want's us to not be the victim but the Victor .

🔥  Are you dangerous… on purpose?  🔥 In this powerful and life-changing message, we dive into what it means to live with  dangerous faith, dangerous hope, and dangerous love —just like the Apostle Paul, who faced trial after trial but stood unshaken. What if your circumstances didn’t define you, but instead, your  purpose in God  made you unstoppable? Get ready to be challenged, inspired, and  m...

Continuing our On Purpose series, Andy reminds us that we are gifted and empowered by God for action, which not only glorifies Him, it's where we find fulfilment. We need to ask ourselves - 'Are we Available' and 'Are we Ready' to pursue God's perfect plan for our lives?

Today we talk about Jesus’ best miracle - The Forgiveness of Sins.  We discuss the story of the 4 people bringing a paralysed man to Jesus and how Jesus saw their faith, turned to the paralysed man and instead of instantly healing the man’s legs, He forgave his sins. This is so significant because you can understand that Jesus knew he had a need bigger than having working legs. This man, like all...

Today we talk about Jesus walking on water and how it can speak into our day to day walk with Him. We explore the idea that we, like Peter, sink in the water when we doubt in God’s power. We sink when we take our eyes off of Him and try to walk on the water, above the waves, without Jesus.  It is important to note that Jesus, from His higher place, knew the apostles were heading towards a storm ye...

Life is full of ups and downs—kind of like a round of golf!  Some shots are great and some land in the rough. In this message, Pastor Adam explores how to grow through the highs and lows, creating the right conditions for spiritual maturity. Don’t let worry, comfort, or a victim mindset stunt your growth—let’s learn how to thrive with purpose, no matter what life throws at us! ⛳🔥 #OnPurpose #Gro...

Today we talk about God’s promise to Abraham and Sarah to provide a son and how against all hope, in hope, Abraham believed he would bare a child even in his old age. Abraham then was willing to give up his only son as a sacrifice to the Lord, yet God provided a ram as an alternative sacrifice, foreshadowing what God was going to do through Jesus in years to come. We then talk about 4 key principl...
