Do you think you can murder someone? While David was a great warrior, he never set out to kill an innocent man, but, through 4 steps, David killed a man to cover up his sinfulness. In this sermon Symon explores the story of David and Bathsheba to see that through not being vigilant, each of us are suceptible to being enslaved to sin.
Dr Stephen Parker from the Australian College of Ministry unpacks this beautiful story that clearly show's God's loving kindness.
In this sermon Symon explores 2 Samuel 8 which summarises how God fulfilled the promises he made in 2 Samuel 7:9-11.
In response to God rejecting David's desire to build a temple, David spends time with God and prays, recognising the great promises that He has made for David and his lineage. David prays through God's promises, which leads to prayer that gives God glory.
In 2 Samuel 7:1 - 17 we explore God's covenant with David this is still shaping human history.
In this sermon Symon encourages the listener to be creative & to use your gifts and passions for God's glory and to encourage others.
It has been said that bitterness is like drinking a glass of poison and hoping for the other person to die. So why is that we hold onto bitterness? In this sermon Symon explores this issue of bitterness & how to let go of it.
In this sermon Symon investigates the final parts of the Sermon on the Plain in Luke 6. Jesus gives some of his most vivid word pictures in this passage. Some are meant to be comical & they are all meant to be memorable.
In this sermon Symon explores the Sermon on the Plain in Luke 6. Luke shows us that the new kingdom that Jesus brings is good news for all the people who haven’t had any for a long time. The poor, the hungry, those who weep and those who are hated.
Symon explores Luke's stories of the tax collector Levi being called to be a disciple and then the party at Levi's house afterwards.
You can simply see Jesus as a great miracle working showman by reading about the first three miracles in Luke 5, however, Luke doesn't want us to see a showman. By looking at each of the miracles a little deeper we have a deeper sense of who Jesus is & what he came to do.
In this sermon we return Luke's gospel, where Jesus is preaching before his hometown synagogue in Nazareth.
In this sermon we were blessed to have renowned Churches of Christ pastor Graham Agnew preaching.
In the last of the Chasing Carrots series we investigate the endless pursuit of comfort.
Too often we have an unhealthy dependence on people's approval. In this sermon we explore the danger of people pleasing, along with the reassurance that our value comes not because of who we are or what we've done, but is instead found because God approves of us.
In this sermon we're looking at the unhealthy pursuit of perfectionism.
This sermon explores the pursuit of Money & Stuff.
In this sermon Symon explores how the pursuit of fame is unfulfilling - much like the mouse on the mouse wheel chasing a carrot. note: because there was no Sunday School, there were kids colouring in at the front of the church. There are some interesting interactions at the start of the sermon that probably won't make sense in the podcast.
In this sermon Symon looks at the temptation of Jesus that we read about in Luke 4:1-13."Because of his faithful life and sacrificial death, we, his people are free from both the power and the penalty of sin."
Darren Hutton from our church congregation preached on Jesus' baptism as recorded in Luke 3.

In this sermon Symon explores the events surrounding Jesus' birth, and in particular, Mary & Joseph's encounters with Simeon & Anna at the temple. Through the encounter, even at this stage in Luke's gospel, we see that Salvation does not come through a "what" or a "where", but a "who".
Pastor Dale White from the Churches of Christ Queensland Board gave an encouraging message titled 'Minority Report'.

In the Parable of the Bags of Gold Jesus continues the theme 'be ready'. But where the warning to be ready was clear in the Parable of the 10 Virgins, Jesus now addresses the question that was left unanswered in that parable: 'What is Readiness?'
In the the parable of the 10 virgins Jesus continues the theme from chapter 24 of being ready for his return.
