In Titus 2 we consider the Grace of God as it appears, as it trains and teaches us while we wait for Glory.

James tells us how to deal with troubles on the outside, how to deal with trouble on the inside and how not to waste your spiritual energy

Considering the start of the Lord's Prayer and the focus on Our Father, we will answer three questions: Who is the one that we pray to? Whose is the one that we pray to? Where is the one that we pray to?

When did you last pray? Do you only pray when things get bad? Tonight we hear Jonah's prayer from the dark depths of the great fish and how he goes from being a disobedient and drowning disciple to becoming a death-defying disciple...with God's help. We consider Jonah's Complication, Jonah's Cry, Jonah's Confession and once again, Jonah's Christ...this is who the book of Jonah points us to.

This Easter Sunday we see how things changed dramatically from last week's Palm Sunday. Following on from last week, we learn three lessons from Jesus again this Sunday: The Preparation, The Problem and The Proclamation.

Tonight we follow our stubborn servant Jonah, a disobeying disciple who boards a boat and flees from God. We'll see in the rest of chapter 1 that his disobedient disciple becomes a drowning disciple. We conder Jonah's Conscience, Jonah's Confession and Jonah's Christ, as ultimately we see Jesus and the Gospel revealed in the pages of this short book.

As we approach Easter, we start with Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem. Less than a week later, the same crowd who welcomed him in on a donkey singing "Hosanna" would be shouting "Crucify Him!" We consider three things from this passage today: The Command, the Colt, and the Crowd.

Join us for our new series on Jonah where we discover that there's more to this book than a big fish and a big city. We begin with an introduction to Jonah himself and discover his description, direction and disobedience which sets the scene for what is to come. But there is much much more to this short book as we see how it points us to Jesus and the importance of sharing the Gospel.

We welcome Feri from the International Mission to the Jewish People (IMJP) today as he shared with us a message from Acts 4:11-12 that Jesus is the only way for Salvation

Tonight we hear an account explaining the truth of the Gospel and the declaration of the person and work of Christ. Are you sure, certain, fixed and secure in your faith in Jesus?

Today with the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper, we we remember the Lord's death until He comes. We were reminded of some core truths about Jesus who died on the cross and why he died, then what was the cross and what does the cross mean today to you?

Tonight we prepare for the sacrament of the Lord's Supper and we consider one of the greatest examples of faithfulness to God and then God's loving provision.

Today we were blessed to have 6 children baptised in the congregation. We consider the Biblical warrant for Baptism and ask what is Baptism and why do we do it? We discover that Baptism is a call to rejoice, a command to repent, and a commission to reach out. "The Lord bless you and keep you; The Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; The Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace."

Tonight we consider the conclusion of the tale of two brothers and hear of Israel's sorrow, salvation and saviour.

When did you last go to the doctor? Has the doctor ever come to you? Today we are introduced to Matthew (known as Levi) who was considered a traitor by his fellow Jews because he was a tax collector. Not only did Matthew grow up in a religious home, he was from a priestly family and it looked like he was a lost cause and too sinful to be saved. But no sin is too bad for Jesus. Matthew ends up being called to trust and follow Jesus and that same offer of salvation is open to those who repent and believe the Gospel today.

Pride is destructive and deceitful. Pride can prevent repentance, reconciliation and restoration. Therefore we learn a solemn lesson tonight that we should not let pride prevent us from repenting and following Jesus. We must learn from Edom's example where the root of its ruin was its pride. Let us seek repentance, reconciliation and restoration through Jesus.

Today we read about the first ever house church at Peter's home where a group of friends brought a paralytic man through the roof to see Jesus. This man not only needed to be healed from his physical condition but also needed the spiritual condition of his heart healed. He came to Jesus in the same way we all come to Jesus, just as we are, with all our needs. Only Jesus has the power and authority to meet all our needs, to heal us, and to forgive all our sins.

Did you know that the Christmas Carol "Joy to the World" is based on the words found in Psalm 98? Not only is it a song which details the first advent of Jesus coming into the world but it also speaks of the second advent when Jesus will return.

Join us for our family Christmas service where we take a look at the candy cane and discover some important reminders about what Christmas and the birth of Jesus means.

Tonight we had the ordination and induction of our new Elders and give thanks to the Lord for His provision.

Apologies for the technical issue in this recording. Psalm singing recording is playing in the background for the first half of the service but it does stop shortly after the sermon starts. We have tried to reduce this background sound as much as possible.

Tonight we concluded our "Love Your Church" series by focusing on sending. From the earliest days, God has commissioned His people to spread the gospel—we are characters in that same ongoing story. Through generations of faithfulness, hardship, mission, and even martyrdom, the message has been handed down to us like a baton. Now it's our turn to carry it forward. Jesus is mighty to save, Jesus loves His church—so let us love our church and be faithful witnesses.
