On Sunday, Mike Hardie shared with us one his final messages as lead paster at Goodlife. If you've missed that update you can find it here: In his message, Mike is revisiting the idea of "Thank God You're Here", a message he shared over 4 years ago about how can we, as followers of christ, be a group of people that when we show up in a situation people go; "Thank God You're Here". This sermon takes a look at 2 Kings 6 which demonstrates the God of everyday problems and that to live in the way of Jesus is to show up and be a presences that says: - You're not alone in this struggle - Your problem matters to God - Help is available - Restoration is possible - This community cares about you WEBSITE :: https://www.goodlife.org.au/ and https://www.goodlife.org.au/church-notices SPOTIFY https://open.spotify.com/show/5tgYs0DLkpe3yxj15nTRUh?si=KWSJIsI-Q7auMNx4WLn6xg Goodlife Collective:: https://open.spotify.com/track/6AIpkihS5W6fyQb81U53ql?si=eae8759fd4d947f6&nd=1&dlsi=45435542515e4942 CONNECT via socials FACEBOOK :: https://www.facebook.com/goodlifecommunitychurch INSTAGRAM:: https://www.instagram.com/goodlifecommunitychurch/ YOUTH:: https://www.instagram.com/goodlife_youth/ COLLECTIVE:: https://www.instagram.com/goodlifecollective_/
On Sunday, Mike shared a beautiful message about The Shema and how Jesus creates a radical combo of new and old teaching that all law and prophets hang on 2 things: 1. Love the lord our God with all of our Heart, Soul, Mind & Strength 2. Love our neighbour as we love ourself Mike highlights how Jesus is reshaping The Shema and a passage from Leviticus as a radical combo - A THEOLOGICAL EARTHQUAKE! "You can't love someone you can't see without loving someone you can see." - How do you love an invisible God? - Who is your neighbour?

On Sunday was our annual COMPASSION SUNDAY gathering where we highlight our partnership with Compassion to release children from poverty in Jesus' name. It was a fantastic morning where Ryan Smith (Our local compassion correspondent) shared about hope in the neighbourhood. "God's not dead, he's bread" - Sister Mary Conita Ryan draws from Matthew 15 and the feeding of the 5000 with 7 loaves of bread and 2 small fish. Like Jesus, we need to recognise the people in need and trust God to provide.

In Mike's Message today he is continuing to share on 'Heart Health' as found in Proverbs 4:23, "Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it." And in this message focuses on envy & desire. "You don't rid envy by trying harder- you heal by bringing it into the light and yielding to the spirit." Mimetic Process- 1. Imitation (I want what they want) 2. Rivalry (competition) 3. Conflict (tearing each other down) 4. Scapegoating ( blame someone else) 5.

In the lead up to Easter, we are reaching the end of our series looking through the Gospel of Luke. On Sunday, we had guest speaker James Hall share about Palm Sunday and what that has meant to him as an Anglican Priest. James wonderfully shares about the traditions he took part in and how the powerful imagery would allow him to feel the depth and the meaning of the journey to the cross and the Easter story.

From Advent into Easter we are going through the Gospel of Luke. Today Mike is sharing about Luke's Good News on Humility from Luke 18:9. Jesus shares a parable about what it means to be justified, and Mike explains justification and how it has been misunderstood. Humility is the posture of deep communion with God. Reliant, grateful, and confident in Christ's love for us.

As we continue through the gospel of Luke, Mike Hardie is sharing Luke's Good News on PRAYER. In his message, he dissects The Lord's Prayer and 5 ways Jesus invites us into transformation. It's not a strict rule or formula but each verse brings profound ideas about how to pray. 1. "Father, hallowed be your name" invites intimacy and holy awe. 2. "Your kingdom come" refocuses our priorities with God's purposes. 3. "Give us each day our daily bread" reminds US to trust in God's provision. 4. "Forgive us our sins, for we ourselves are forgive" reminds us of God's restorative justice. 5. "Do not lead us into temptation" expresses dependence on God for deliverance.

Carrying on from last week Mike is sharing a second part about LUKE'S GOOD NEWS ON FIRE. Today our reading is from Luke 9:51-56. Expanding on the fire of God's love, there is: 1. A FIRE WE MUST AVOID: the fire of judgment 2. A FIRE WE MUST EMBRACE: the fire of God's love "We need wisdom and discernment wrapped in God's love." Mike also finishes with 3 questions we can ask ourselves... Do we make people curious about Jesus, or push them away because of our attitude? Are we carrying the fire of God's love, or the fire of our own judgement? Am I using wisdom & discernment wrapped in God's love?

No, I tell you, but rather division." which Mike relates about the refiners fire; Luke's Good News on FIRE: 1. The fire is God's love expressed 2. God's fire of love divides 3.

We are very lucky today to hear from Guest Speaker; Dave Adamson (@aussiedave), as he shares that reading the Bible is complicated. 11% of Adult Christians read the Bible daily (Statista) and 47% of Christian teens have never read the Bible (ACC). So what can we do to fix this? It starts with our daily decisions that will determine our spiritual direction. Dave shares a beautiful encouragement that it can be easy to do, and that "one verse today beats good intentions tomorrow."
