LIFE Adelaide

Ps Jacob Meinel continues our 'You Asked For It!' series as we unpack the question: How do I know the will of God? God's will is revealed one step of obedience at a time, in His Word and in our Surrender.

This week, Ps Ashari continues our series ‘You asked for it!' as we look at some of the most commonly asked questions from our congregation. We all know reading our Bible is an important practice but sometimes it is easier said than done. This week, we dive into the question, ‘How do we read the Bible?' as we explore the practice of Lectio Divina - a slow practice to reading inspired by the Holy Spirit.

This week, Dylan Crouch continues our series ‘You asked for it!' as we look at some of the most commonly asked questions from our congregation. Have you ever found yourself asking the questions,  ‘How do I be the bringer of good tiding?' ‘How do I be a good witness?' or ‘How do I evangelise?' Tonight we look at some practices to help us grow as witnesses of Christ.

Ps Dan kicks off our new series ‘You asked for it' as we dive into some commonly asked questions from our congregation. This week, we focus on hearing the voice of God as we look to what spiritual practices help us to engage with His voice.

Praise is not the tempo of a song, but a posture of the heart. This week we are joined by LIFE Melbourne Lead Pastor, Ps Craig Clark, as he reminds us of the power of praise and the impact it can have.

We have a responsibility to protect the righteousness of the things in our life. This Father's Day, Ps Dan encourages us to stand in the gap. We are drowning in advice but starving for fathers and mothers - we need to choose to stand in the gap for others where the wall is thinnest. 

The church of Thyatira had tolerated false teaching and idols from the cultures around them. This week, Ps Dan continues our series ‘Letters to the Church' as we study the letter written to Thyatira as a correction directed at this tolerance. Compromise and tolerance leads to our destruction, however, Gods way leads to joy through holiness.

Laodicea was a materially rich but spiritually bankrupt city. This week, Ps Dan continues our series ‘Letters to the Church' as we study the final letter which was written to Laodicea. Laodicea's belief that they were self-sufficient led to their indifference and lukewarm spirituality.

The little things we compromise end up eroding larger areas of our life overtime. This week, Ps Dan continues our series ‘Letters to the Church' as we study the warning written to Pergamum. Internal compromise creeps in, we must guard ourselves against it.

The church of Sardis gave the impression of godliness but they had no power or impact on their city. This week, Ps Ashari continues our series ‘Letters to the Church' as we study the rebuke written to Sardis. It not about keeping up appearances but about inward to outward change.

This week, Ps Dan continues our series ‘Letters to the Church' as we look at the encouraging letter given to Smyrna during a time of trials and suffering. Although there may be pressure from the world around us we are called to stand firm on the goodness of God.

This week, we are joined by Ps David Doery as he dives into the powerful story of Luke 8 where a demon-possessed man encounters Jesus, experiencing a miraculous transformation. No one is beyond Gods grace or beyond Jesus' authority to bring freedom and healing.

This week, we tune into Life NZ as Ps Luke de Jong continues our series ‘Letters to the Church.' The letter to the church of Ephesus is just as relevant today as it was when written. If we are not careful, in the midst of our good works, we may forget to love the lord and His people as we did at first.

This week, Ps Danny Guglielmucci continues our series ‘Letters to the Church' as we look at what it means to be a church of open doors. God is bringing about a new season of unity and truth in the Church. Let's partner with Jesus as He builds the Church His way.

This week, Ps Dan McGaw kicks off our new series ‘Letters to the Church' with an introduction to Revelation.  We shouldn't avoid the book of Revelation, but we must not interpret foolishly through our own cultural lens.

This week, Ps Ashari McGaw encourages us to take up our mantle with seven keys to living with spiritual authority. Our identity is that we are children of God. This gives us heavenly authority to walk as more than conquerors over whatever we face.

When we partner with God by saying a faith filled "yes" to His unconventional requests, miracles unfold. This week, we gather together for Giving Sunday as we give our pledges for Expansion.

‘The world of the generous gets larger and larger.' This week as we continue our focus on Expansion Ps Dan McGaw looks at the life of Abraham and explores how to respond when God asks us to give something that we don't want to give. God wants our heart more than He wants our belongings.

This week we begin our time of Expansion as we discuss our three pillars kingdom, facilities and community. Our time of Expansion is built on the scriptures that speak of how the world of the generous gets larger and larger. God loves a cheerful giver because that is what He is like.

Bethlehem was God with us, Calvary was God for us, but Pentecost is God IN us! This week, we celebrate Pentecost Sunday as we are reminded that we walk with the presence of Jesus in us. The Holy Spirit is not only for the few but is for everyone!

This week we hear from guest speaker, Ps Dustan Bell (Senior Pastor, Calvary Christian Church). Jesus has called us to bigger and greater things, both as a church and in our individual lives. There are many reasons why we can feel inadequate or unable to fulfil the call of God upon our lives, but Ps Dustan encourages us that when we make that step of faith, we're not alone!

This week we are joined by LIFE Melbourne Lead Pastor, Nadia Clark,  as she shares on how to direct disappointment. We aren't responsible for what happens to us, but we are responsible for what happens in us.

We aren't called to echo the city, we are called to echo the King. This week, Ps Dan McGaw speaks to the culture of Adelaide. The culture of the city is not meant to shape us, the culture of the kingdom is meant to shape the city.

This week, we come together to celebrate Mother's Day as Ps Ashari McGaw encourages us to pursue a presenced life rather than a perfect life. We live presenced as we walk at the pace of God, in the path of God.

When it comes to kindness, it's not the thought that counts but the action that matters. This week, Ps Dan McGaw concludes our series ‘Fruit of the Spirit' as we focus on the fruit of Kindness. Kindness is the expression of love in action and is ultimately the tangible sign of our faith. 

Jesus has risen from the dead! His resurrection proving he was who he said he was. This week, we gather together to celebrate Resurrection Sunday. Sin no longer has power over us, we are free and free indeed!

Happiness is the counterfeit of joy. This week, Ps Luke de Jong continues our series ‘Fruit of the Spirit' as we focus on Joy. Joy doesn't come and go like happiness does, it remains in abundance throughout life's up and downs because of the Lords constant presence in our lives.

This week, we are joined by Ps James Murray as he encourages us in continuing the ministry of Jesus. Together we look at what it truely means to be a disciple of Christ as we look to the early church and the example they set. 

We have a choice to step into the life God intended for us. This week, we join LIFE Melbourne as Ps David Doery continues our series Fruit of the Spirit. Together we look at peace and patience and what it means to learn to rest in the will of God.

Gentleness is not weakness or a lack of power! This week, Ps Ashari McGaw continues our series ‘Fruit of the Spirit' as we focus on the fruit of Gentleness. Gentleness is humility in action, it is strength under control.

Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. This week, Ps Dan McGaw continues our series ‘Fruit of the Spirit' as we focus on the fruit of love. The love we are called to give is more than showing friendly gestures to people, it's a sacrificial love.

This week, Ps Ashari continues our series ‘Fruit of the Spirit' as we focus on the fruit of goodness and faithfulness.  When we don't live in truth we live in a counterfeit reality. The counterfeit of goodness is truth without love. The counterfeit of faithfulness is love without truth. 

This week, Ps Dan kicks off our new series ‘Fruit of the Spirit.' As believers the Holy Spirit within us produces good fruit, bringing light and life. Left to our own devices our sinful nature produces works which bring death and destruction. We have a choice to be led by the spirit, allowing God to live and reign in our lives. 

This Discipleship Sunday, Ps Ashari McGaw shares on what it means to live out the great commission. The life that we've been given is an incredible opportunity to share the love of Jesus to those around us. Are we willing to grasp this opportunity?

This week, we join together for Communion Sunday. As we take communion together we remember the sacrifice which created a new covenant. Jesus, the fulfilment of the Passover lamb, died for us so that we may have new life in Him.

After Jesus's birth we see him fulfil over 324 prophecies. This Christmas Day we gather together to celebrate the reason for the season. Today, Ps Dan focuses on one such prophecy Jesus fulfilled, he is Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father and Prince of Peace.

Christmas brings an undeniable sense of Hope. This week, Ps Ashari McGaw speaks on what it means to hold onto hope. The antidote to our learned helplessness is learned hopefulness.

Christmas sets course for the cross, the servant king came to set all of humanity free. This week, Ps Dan McGaw shares the reason for the season. We proclaim to all the one who existed from the beginning, he is the word of life!

There is an importance in gaining understanding of spiritual warfare. This week, Ps Dan McGaw encourages us to equip ourself with our weapons of warfare. The devil fears the Word of God, and the more you engage with scripture, the more you will be armed for battle.

Our responsibility is how we conduct ourself not controlling someone else's behaviour.  This week, Ps Dan and Ashari McGaw wrap up our relationship series ‘Unfiltered' as they speak on recovering relationships. This is not a journey to walk on our own but instead one to walk side by side with Jesus.

In this episode of the Unfiltered series, Ps Dan and Ashari are joined by Aidan and Sarah Stanley for an honest and insightful conversation about friendships, dating, and marriage. Drawing from their experiences as leaders and mentors at LIFE Adelaide, Aidan and Sarah share wisdom and practical advice shaped by years of discipling youth and young adults.

The main goal of marriage isn't companionship, it's to advance the kingdom. This week, Ps Dan and Ashari McGaw continue our new relationship series ‘Unfiltered' as they speak on Marriage & Sex. So what is marriage is for? It is a way for two spiritual friends journeying together to become the people God designed them to be.

The quality of our relationships determines the quality of our lives. This service, Ps Dan and Ashari McGaw continue our new series as they speak on the importance of relationships to our lives. Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples.

Persistent prayer is one of the most powerful tools we have in our lives. This week, Ps Dan McGaw encourages us in the way of persistent personal prayer. Jesus demonstrated to us the importance of a daily prayer life; it was the fuel of His ministry.

We can have all the right materials but still be building on the wrong foundation. This week, Ps Ashari McGaw shares on how we can live our life from a foundation that is built to last. Foundations are the only thing that remain steadfast in a storm, even if we lose everything we can build upon them again.

We are called to be set apart for Holy use. This week, Ps Dan McGaw shares on the ‘Call to Consecration'. We need to wash off the dust of the wilderness before we take step into the promise land.

Altars are built to mark a moment with God. This week, Ps Dan McGaw speaks on ‘The Art of the Altar'. God's will for your life isn't found in striving, but learning to surrender at the altar.
