Colossians 3:1-14When we step in to this new life with Christ, everything changes. The practices of death are replaced with behaviours of life. And this life is ultimately revealed in and through love. Love that brings forgiveness and hope to even the most broken and lost. Love that brings unity and peace.If you need prayer, we're here for you.

In Paul's appeal to the Colossian church, he reiterates the creative and sovereign power of Jesus in a what seems to be a known song or prayer. For Paul, everything is about Jesus. It is Christ who is the agent in creation, it is Christ who reigns over all things, and it Christ who redeems and reconciles creation back to God. In Christ, our relationship with God can be restored. That is what gives us hope. That is what gives us meaning and purpose. That is what gives us life. That is true power. The invitation for everyone is to make Jesus King. Make Jesus King over all things. If you need prayer, we're here for you.

In this message, Andrew unpacks that as Christians, we live in the tension of being in this world under earthly ‘kings' and members of earthly nations, yet we are citizens of another world and dominion – the ‘kingdom of light' as Paul refers to it in his letter to the Colossians. The question that we wrestle with as members of this kingdom is - how? How can we exist with all the pressures and temptations of the world around us? How do we ‘live a worthy life and please him in every way'? Well, Paul's answer is simple. Ask. Ask that the Holy Spirit fill you with knowledge, wisdom and understanding.

On Easter Sunday, we remember the moment that changed history—and changes our lives today. In this message, Andrew shares how the resurrection of Jesus speaks directly into the brokenness we see in the world and feel in our own lives. We're reminded that the resurrection of Jesus Christ defeated the power of sin and death that has plagued every person in every culture throughout every generation. Through His resurrection, Jesus offers us all a new beginning – a chance to break free from the bondage of sin and death and live in the freedom of His love and grace.If you need prayer, we're here for you.

On the night before He died, Jesus gave His disciples a newcommand – to love one another. This doesn't seem all that new at first glance. The Old Testament law commanded God's people to love their neighbour (Leviticus 19:18) and the expert in the law knew the whole law could be summed up by “Loving God and loving people”. The new part of the command was – as I have loved you. Jesus was commanding a new pattern of love and a new power to love. Elena unpacks this for us in todays message.

We've all made promises we couldn't keep. We've all felt the weight of brokenness. But what if there was a better promise—one that never fails? In this message, Andrew Sercombe kicks off our New series by showing us the power of the new covenant through Jesus. If you've ever felt tired, stuck, or spiritually flat, this is for you.

What does it mean to be fully devoted to Jesus? The early church in Acts 2 demonstrated a deep commitment to the Apostles' teaching, fellowship, breaking of bread, prayer and the word. As Christians, it is important that we cultivate the same ongoing, single-minded pursuit of God through His Word. We are invited to anchor our lives in the transformative power of God's Word. As we hunger for Him, we are changed from the inside out, reflecting Jesus to the world around us.If you need prayer, we're here for you.

Isaiah writes that this child shall be called "Wonderful Counsellor." This title ‘Counsellor' does not mean a therapist or simply a good listener (though he certainly does listen to us). It has little to do with the child's capacity for empathy or compassion (though he has an abundance of both). Rather, it refers to his wisdom, a godly and kingly wisdom far and above that of human wisdom. Isaiah later writes: “And the Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the LORD” (Isa. 11:2). This Wonderful Counsellor would be wisdom for Israel, fearing and obeying God in their place. He would be a ruler who would not run and hide from evil, as some rulers had done. Nor would he be a ruler who would yield and conform to evil, as other rulers had done. He would instead face and confront evil with complete wisdom. And He would in every respect be the ultimate and most perfect teacher, guiding his people with sound judgement. If you need prayer, we're here for you.

One of the keys to understanding how God is at work in the book of Esther is knowing the God who is working. The rest of Scripture helps us understand who God is, and when we know what it looks like for God to move, we start to see his fingerprints all over this story. Even in these moments of confrontation and celebration, we see God's heart for the powerless. God's heart is for the ones who had no way of saving themselves, and he works through the established order to bring hope to their situation. This is the grander story of Scripture. God works through the established order to bring hope and life to his creation. We were powerless, and God gave us hope and offered us life. As we read the account of Jesus on the night before his crucifixion in the Garden of Gethsemane, we may have a similar reaction to the one above. Why did Jesus have to die? Couldn't God have just worked it out another way? Yet Jesus chooses to surrender himself to God's plan and God works through the established order (with a few miracles in the midst) to bring life and hope to his people. What do you need to surrender to God today? If you need prayer, we're here for you.

John 15:4–5 "Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing." Jesus's teachings are full of agricultural metaphors. That makes sense for the creator of the earth!

The only way a branch can bear fruit is by remaining in the vine. A detached branch loses any chance or hope of bearing fruit.  Fruit is not for the vine or the branch but produced to be enjoyed by others. When fruit is picked from the branches, no harm or damage is done to the branch. In fact, it increases the potential of the branch as it remains in the vine, drawing the necessary nutrients for fruitfulness.

In Luke 22 Jesus healed an ear that had been cut off. Join us as Jason Elsmore speaks about how Jesus chose to preserve the ear of a man who was about to kill him. This ultimate act of mercy demonstrates the love and compassion of God – a love that is underserved yet given unreservedly. It also reflects Jesus' divine authority and the nature of His kingdom, which is characterised by healing and reconciliation rather than violence and retribution.

God has been in the business of provision since creation.  God met the needs of Abraham, where He received the name Jehovah Jireh, when He provided a ram for the sacrifice. Genesis 22:14 says, “So Abraham called that place The Lord Will Provide. And to this day it is said, ‘On the mountain of the Lord it will be provided.'” The death of Jesus on Calvary's hill was God's ultimate provision for our greatest need. Jesus is Jehovah Jireh, our great provider. He is able to provide forgiveness for our sins and meet our daily needs and the needs of those around us (Matthew 6:31-33). ________________________ Gateway Baptist Church meets across six locations in South-East Queensland and also online.

Jesus performs a miracle by calming the storm—a demonstration of His divine authority over nature, his control over chaos. But what if the miracle wasn't just the storm Jesus calmed on the outside, but also the storm He calmed on the inside? The calming of the storm serves as an image of Jesus' ability to bring peace and order out of chaos, both in nature and in human lives. God can bring the miracle of peace in troubled waters of anxiety and fear. When we stand in reverent awe of the power and majesty of God, we can know the peace that surpasses understanding – a peace despite the circumstances around us.

Jesus' miraculous deliverance of the possessed boy occurs after the Transfiguration (Mark 9:2-13), where Peter, James, and John witnessed Jesus' divine glory. Upon descending from the mountain, they find the other disciples who are unable to exorcise a demon from a boy. This event, found in Mark 9:14-29, highlights Jesus' authority over evil spirits and the necessity of faith. If you need prayer, we're here for you.
