In this message, Mauritz shares with us about a vital part of life, that is death. Death is inevitable and so is suffering. We all know this, but so many times we forget about the fact that God is still with us in the midst of suffering as well as joy. IN all seasons He is close to us. Even when it doesn't feel like it, He cares for and watches over us and we need to be careful not to buy into thi...

When I read through the book of Ruth this week, one question came up that I never thought of before: WHY IS THE BOOK CALLED RUTH? That sounds like a silly question. Why not Naomi who is a prominent person in this book and an Israelite, amongst the women of Moab. Or even better, why is it not called Boaz? He is the hero (in today’s terms) who “saved the day”, so to speak. My conclusion is, there mu...

As you might know, our series for this month is focused on the people we read about in scripture and what it was that inspired them to keep on going. In this week's message, we will be having a closer look at the story of Thomas the disciple.

There are passages in the Bible that we think to be irrelevant to our daily lives, but they could be hiding a special truth for our blind eyes. Look at the man Job, mentioned in the Bible. I know his story looks so unfair, but I believe there are some truths that God wants to reveal to us. Join us as we have a closer look at the story of Job.

Psalm 37 and Romans 12 both speak about overcoming evil. On Sunday I will attempt to extract practical applications from these Scriptures to be used in times of distress and hardship

Many times we decide, "This is a fresh start", and then days or weeks later we fall back into "how it was". How can we restart and keep going? How can we overcome without permanently?

If purpose is the door, perspective is the key. Without having the bigger picture, it becomes almost impossible to understand that even in our suffering, even in our darkest moments, we are not forsaken. Join us as we talk about how God can repurpose our pain. Facebook: https://bit.ly/2IDAbpE Instagram: https://bit.ly/38KTAQr Website: https://bit.ly/35JlwSO

To have a fresh start this year, we have to be refreshed ourselves. How does that happen? Join us for this message to find out! Facebook: https://bit.ly/2IDAbpE Instagram: https://bit.ly/38KTAQr Website: https://bit.ly/35JlwSO

If anything, this has been a year filled with highs and lows. But this is nothing new. Every year has good times and bad times, but this year has been especially long. And maybe, like me, you too feel a little broken. And that's okay. If there's anything I've learned through my walk of faith over the past 15 years, it's that sometimes things just suck. But we can't stay there forever. Join us as w...

Last Sunday we spoke about what defines us as Christians and who we are not and at the end of the day, we can only know so much about ourselves. Eventually, there has to be a point where we go beyond understanding to what God reveals to us about our identities. Join us as we look at who God says we are.

We have lost ourselves in the desires and predefined ideals of this world. We think that whatever is pure and good must be whatever the latest trends are. So, in this inconsistent, always shifting world, how can we find ourselves? How can we know what our true identity is, apart from the persona we think we need to be? Join us as we dive into the true origin of our identity. Facebook: https://bit....

Before we can understand who we are or where we belong in this world; before we can start searching for our identity in Christ and find our purpose; We must first, surrender our perspective as Christians. We have to accept the fact that no amount of good works or pleasant behavior could ever earn God's love and therefore we are given this as a free ticket, but actually using this ticket and gettin...

One can never over-exaggerate the importance of identity. Understanding who we are apart from what we like or do is the key to grounding ourselves in the Christian faith. John 17: 16 tells us that we do not belong to this world any more than Jesus does. Join us for this message as we discover the freedom that comes with understanding where we belong.

Have you ever been in a position where God was taking too long? A few years ago, I was listening to a sermon by some pastor who spoke about how his wife always complained about him not opening the car door for her. After countless days of nagging, he eventually gave in… and bought a car with central locking. Praise the Lord for central-locking, but I’m sure there are far fewer women who feel as lo...

Sometimes it's necessary for God to blind us to the things of this world in order for us to see His kingdom shine through. Join us as Kobus van Schalkwyk shares about how the love of God opens up our eyes to the truth. Facebook: www.facebook.com/westcoastvineyardchurch Instagram: www.instagram.com/wcvineyardchurch

The Bible is filled to the brim with wisdom for all situations in all seasons, but what is the most important thing the word of God teaches us? Join us as Landa shares about the most important thing in Scripture. #WCV #VineyardSA #themostimportantthing #realloveshows

Sometimes things just don't go as planned. It's easy to start feeling like God is far away when we find ourselves in these types of circumstances. Join Landa as she shares with us about how to deal when things just don't work out.

Who will have my back when the walls come down; when the system fails; when my plans don’t work out? What will you hold onto when the logic you stand upon gives in? What guarantee do we have that we will be okay in this life? Yet, His word says, “He refreshes and restores my soul.” How can this be? How can we live in a broken world and still experience the joy of our Lord? #wcv #RunningOver #GetOv...

This Sunday we were joined by David Pettit from Cornerstone Vineyard Christian Fellowship in Bothasig, CT. David is the senior pastor at Cornerstone. He also functions as the overseer of the district we fall in (our HUB leader). He also happens to be the pastor Mauritz (our previous pastor) served under for a few years. So it seems he's a good guy to listen to, with an amazingly humble heart and a...

Psalm 23 is undeniably one of the most quoted scripture passages to date. In this message we have a closer look at why this is as well as looking at how some people might misunderstand exactly what this Psalm is trying to teach us. #wcv #RunningOver #OurDailyWalk

Sometimes all we need is someone who understands us. Someone who you don’t have to explain everything to. The type of friend who completely understands the way your head works. It’s so important to understand and to be understood. To have that friend you can go to and just let it all out. That person who you don't have to apologize to when saying stupid things because they already know what you ac...

Any solid friendship is usually built on a foundation of time, having a history and shared experiences and a certain level of understanding and trust that only comes from being on this journey of life together. Jesus didn’t want us to be alone in this world – fending for ourselves. That’s why He sent the Holy Spirit to be our Helper. Join us as Tyzah shares her heart on friends and the Holy Spirit...

In this message, Landa shares with us the importance of spiritual disciplines. More specifically, the discipline of reading our Bibles and how it's not just about gaining more knowledge but getting to know the heart of God #wcv #AnotherStep #August #TheStolenBread #Word #Truth #FoodForThought

As humans going through various stages or seasons is part of everyday life. There's not much we can do to change that, but we can learn how to adapt. We can learn to embrace every moment of life and to find God in every season. In this message, Landa shares with us about embracing the journey of life #ministry #WCV #transformedlives
