Recorded Sunday 13th September, 2026. We cannot earn salvation or make ourselves good enough for God; it is His undeserved gift, made possible through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. By faith, we receive God's grace, mercy and forgiveness, trusting that it is His work—not our performance—that saves us and carries us through.

Recorded Sunday, 30th of August, 2026.Jesus is the ultimate seed who gave His life so that new life could grow and multiply, and that same gospel seed now lives within every follower of Christ. We are called not to keep it to ourselves, but to pray, give, go and share, faithfully sowing wherever God sends us and trusting Him to bring the growth and the harvest.

Recorded Sunday, 23rd August, 2026Jesus was sent by the Father to seek, serve and save the lost, and His life gives us the model for how we are to join God's mission in the world. As His disciples, we are called to be with Jesus, become like Jesus, and then go as He went — meeting people where they are, building genuine relationships, sharing the good news and inviting them to take their next step toward Him.

Recorded Sunday, 16th August, 2026.When Isaiah encountered the holiness and glory of God, he became deeply aware of his own sin, received God's cleansing and grace, and responded with a willing heart: “Here I am, send me.” In the same way, every follower of Jesus is called to be available to God, trusting Him enough to say yes wherever He leads and whatever He asks us to do.

Recorded Sunday, 09 August, 2026, 10:00 am.Moses felt inadequate, doubtful and reluctant when God called him, but God continually reassured him, “I will be with you.” His story reminds us that God is not limited by our weakness, insecurity or lack of ability, because His power is made evident when we step out in faith and obedience. Whatever God is calling us to do, we can move forward with confidence knowing that His presence goes with us.

Recorded Sunday, 2nd August, 2026.God's mission has always involved ordinary people responding in faith and obedience, just as Abraham went when God called him without knowing the full journey ahead. Through Abraham's story and ultimately the Great Commission, we are reminded that every follower of Jesus has been sent to participate in God's mission—whether across the world or in our everyday communities.We are blessed to be a blessing, called to step out in faith, use the gifts God has given us, support and encourage others, and bring the light and love of Jesus wherever God places us.

Recorded Sunday, 02 August, 2026.God's mission throughout Scripture is to save lost people, calling and sending ordinary men and women—like Abraham—to respond in faith and join Him in His work. Every follower of Jesus is invited to surrender their whole life, asking where God would have them go, pray, give and share so that His blessing can flow through them to generations and nations.

Recorded Sunday, 26th July, 2026True transformation doesn't come through our own willpower or strength, but through the power of the Holy Spirit working within us. As we allow God to renew our hearts, we are called to imitate Jesus, walk in the light, love and serve others, and live lives marked by gratitude, obedience and Christlike character.

Recorded Sunday, 26 July, 2026.Pascal preaches on grace as the free and unmerited favour of God, explaining that humanity's sin brought separation from God, but Christ's sacrifice made salvation, reconciliation, adoption and renewal possible. He calls listeners to stop pretending they are fine, bring their weakness, questions, addictions and heavy hearts to Jesus, and receive the grace that is sufficient for every area of need.

Recorded Sunday, 19th July 2026. Paul's message to the Galatians reminds us that salvation is found entirely in the finished work of Jesus—we cannot add legalism, religious performance or human rules to the gospel. As one family in Christ, believers are called to put aside divisive differences, walk in the freedom of the Spirit, love one another and gently restore those who fall.

Recorded Sunday, 19th July 2026. Because Christ has forgiven us and made us His chosen, holy, and dearly loved people, we are called to forgive others—not because they deserve it, but because forgiveness reflects God's limitless love and sets us free from the burden of unforgiveness. As we are clothed in Christ with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, patience, and love, forgiveness becomes an act of obedience that restores relationships, reveals our identity in Him, and allows God's love to flow through us.

Recorded Sunday, 12th of July 2026. Jesus entered Jerusalem humbly as the promised King, fulfilling prophecy and bringing a salvation far greater than deliverance from earthly powers—freedom from sin and death through His finished work on the cross. Because He has paid the price in full and will return as King of Kings, we are called to move from simply crying “Hosanna” to wholehearted faith, praise and surrender to Him.

Recorded Sunday, 12 July 2026. Ps Paul Butler unpacks Jesus' promise of the “keys of the kingdom of heaven,” showing that these are not our keys to use for our own purposes, but the Master's keys entrusted to His church to open access to God, proclaim freedom, and set people free. Through Matthew 16, Isaiah 22 and Jesus' ministry, he calls the church to recognise the authority Jesus has given them, humbly come to Him poor in spirit, and help others discover the freedom and purpose found in Christ.

Recorded Sunday, 5 July, 2026.Through the story of King Hezekiah, Devin showed how we can begin faithfully, experience God's victories, yet still open the door to pride when we stop bringing every part of our lives before the Lord. Unlike earthly kings who could open or close access to God, Jesus became the door and the key, inviting us to repent, guard what we allow into our lives and continually surrender our plans, successes and struggles to Him.

Because Jesus has made us righteous, compassion, generosity, forgiveness and love should flow naturally from our new identity rather than being performed for praise. As we remain close to Christ through prayer and Scripture, our everyday lives can reflect His light and lead others towards repentance, salvation and the hope found in Jesus.

Recorded Sunday, 05 July, 2026Jesus did not save us merely to gather safely within the church, but to become His living, mobile people—called out to carry His light, speak truth in love and confront the darkness around us. Built upon the unshakeable foundation that Jesus is the Messiah, the Church is empowered to pull down strongholds, release those held captive and confidently advance God's Kingdom, knowing that the gates of hell cannot withstand it.

Recorded Sunday, 28 June 2026.This sermon teaches that faith in Jesus is a journey of moving towards Him, surrendering control, and becoming more like Him as we recognise Him as the Messiah, the Son of the living God. Ps Paul explains that Jesus builds His church as a gathered, called-out people who carry the authority, Word and light of God into dark places, so that captives can be set free and the gates of hell will not overcome the work of God.

Recorded Sunday, 28 June, 2026.This sermon reminds believers that, because we have been raised with Christ, our identity is no longer shaped by the standards of the world but by who we are and whose we are in Him. Rather than drifting back into the old earthly nature, we are called to set our hearts and minds on things above, living from Christ's victory with holiness, faithfulness, love and renewed affection for God.

Recorded Sunday, 21 June, 2026. Nils Haug explores the loneliness, anxiety and search for identity that can leave people feeling trapped, pointing to Jesus as the only true source of meaning, hope and peace. Using the image of a chess game that appears lost, he reminds us that even when life feels like checkmate, God is never finished and the King still has one more move.

Recorded Sunday, 21 June, 2026.Dan Collins reflects on the Greek word telos—meaning the completed purpose or fulfilment of something—and wrestles honestly with Romans 8:28, especially when life includes suffering, disappointment, and unanswered questions. Through Scripture and his own story of God leading him to Sweden, he encourages the church to expect God's purpose not only in hardship, but also in blessing, the ordinary, and even death, trusting that Christ is bringing all things to completion.

Recorded Sunday, 14 June 2026.Through the story of Elijah and the widow of Zarephath, we are reminded that God often brings revival out of places of hopelessness, calling His people to carry His name and speak His life into a broken world. As followers of Jesus, we are empowered by the Holy Spirit to pray, proclaim Christ, and bring His hope, healing, and resurrection power to those around us.

Recorded Sunday, 07 June 2026.In the story of Bartimaeus, a blind beggar who recognised Jesus as the promised Messiah, we see that true faith is not about status, possessions, or self-effort, but about humbly crying out for God's mercy and trusting completely in Christ. While many who could physically see failed to recognise Jesus, Bartimaeus received both physical sight and spiritual sight, responding by leaving everything behind to follow Him.

Recorded Sunday, 7 June 2026.Paul calls the church back to 2 Chronicles 7:14, urging God's people to humble themselves, pray, seek His face, and turn from the ways of the world. He reminds us that revival begins with a surrendered remnant who radically return to God and invite His Spirit to bring healing, repentance, and new life.

Recorded Sunday 31st May 2026Paul explores Ezekiel 37 to show that faith is more than knowing about God; it becomes alive when we personally encounter the Holy Spirit and experience God's transforming presence. He encourages every generation to share their faith stories, seek the Holy Spirit, and help one another move from head knowledge into a living, heart-deep relationship with Jesus.

Recorded Sunday, 23 May 2026.This sermon is about the Holy Spirit as the holy breath of God who brings spiritual life, makes believers children of God, and empowers them to live as sons, daughters and heirs of His Kingdom. Ps Paul encourages the church not to underestimate God, but to pray boldly in Jesus' name for what only God can do.

Recorded Sunday, 24 May 2026. Genuine faith is tested and refined by God, just as Jesus resisted temptation in the wilderness through the Word and the Spirit. He encourages the church to reject “Plan B” distractions and trust God through suffering, delay, temptation and refinement.

Recorded Sunday, 17 May 2026.Dr Craig Heilmann uses Elijah's story in 1 Kings 18 to show that “heavy rain” represents the coming work of God: revival, spiritual hunger, renewed prayer, and people turning to Jesus. He encourages the church to keep praying, keep believing, and not give up when the promise seems delayed, because even a small cloud can signal that God is about to move powerfully.

Recorded Sunday, 17 May, 2026.Ps Brad Gardiner challenges the church to leave behind the “ships” that keep pulling us back — fear, self-pity, sin, addiction, unhealthy patterns, and anything that stops us from fully following God. Drawing from Elijah leaving the cave and Elisha burning his ploughing equipment, he calls us to step out in faith, surrender our backup plans, and move forward into God's purpose with wholehearted commitment.

Recorded Sunday, 03 May, 2026.Ps Paul Butler reflects on Jesus breathing on His disciples, God breathing life into Adam, and Ezekiel speaking to the valley of dry bones to show that the breath of God brings dead things to life. He encourages believers to live as Spirit-filled people who listen for God's voice, speak His words over impossible situations, and walk in their identity as children of God rather than victims of circumstance.

Recorded Sunday, 26 April 2026. Because of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, believers are no longer bound by fear, sin, or death but are given true peace, purpose, and power through His presence and the Holy Spirit. Just as Jesus entered the disciples' fear-filled, locked room and spoke peace over them, He meets us in our own broken places, transforms our inner reality, and sends us out with His mission and authority.

Recorded Sunday, 19 April, 2026. This sermon contrasts obedience driven by fear, rules, and punishment with obedience that flows from love, grace, and a relationship with God. True Christian obedience is not about earning acceptance through law, but about responding from the heart to God's love, as seen in the Epistle to the Romans, where believers are set free from sin and live under grace.

Recorded Sunday, 05 April 2026.In a world where truth feels uncertain, this message explores how faith in Jesus goes beyond logic or emotion, revealing that true belief comes through personal revelation that engages both heart and mind.Through the story of the road to Emmaus, it shows that unbelief, fear, and limited perspective can blind us to God's presence, but when Jesus reveals Himself, understanding shifts from head knowledge to a life-changing, deeply personal encounter.

Recorded Sunday, 03 April, 2026. (Good Friday). This Good Friday sermon reveals that even in the darkest moment of Jesus' crucifixion, God was accomplishing the ultimate victory—offering forgiveness, salvation, and restored relationship through Christ's sacrifice. It calls believers to see beyond present hopelessness and recognise that the cross is the source of true hope, where the price for sin was fully paid, and new life is made possible.

Recorded Sunday, 29 March, 2026.This sermon unpacks Psalm 23:1 to show that when God is truly our Lord and Shepherd, we can live with confidence, peace, and dependence on Him rather than fear of lack or uncertainty.

Recorded Sunday, 22 March, 2026.This sermon teaches that our core identity is not in roles or performance but in being children of God, called to live in humble dependence on a loving Father rather than self-reliance. Drawing from John's transformation, it emphasizes that walking in the light means honestly confessing sin, embracing God's grace, and allowing His love to continually cleanse and transform us.

Recorded Sunday, 22nd March, 2026.This sermon warns that believers can slowly drift into spiritual complacency, becoming lukewarm and “asleep” in their faith if they lose focus on Christ and settle into routine rather than relationship. It calls Christians to wake up, return to passion for God, and live as overcomers through Christ's power—choosing to walk in His truth, grace, and victory instead of being overpowered by the world.

Recorded 15 March 2026.This sermon uses the story of the rich young ruler to show that true discipleship is not about outward obedience or religious activity, but a wholehearted surrender to Jesus—even when it requires giving up what we value most.

Recorded Sunday 01 March 2026.The sermon explains that following Jesus involves enduring trials that refine faith, calling believers to pursue holiness, remain steadfast, and stand firm in truth despite cultural pressure and opposition. As “salt,” Christians are meant to preserve goodness in the world and reflect God's love through their actions, drawing others toward Him without compromising biblical truth.

Recorded Sunday, 01 March 2026. This sermon teaches that Christianity is not about knowing about God but entering into a deep, intimate relationship with Him—becoming one with Him and receiving His love rather than striving for it. It emphasises that God's desire is covenant, not contract, where we respond to His unconditional love and live from that love in unity with Him and others.

The sermon teaches that true relationship with God moves beyond intellectual knowledge into deep, intimate “knowing,” which leads to spiritual oneness with Him and the experience of His divine love. As believers grow in knowing God, becoming one with Him, and receiving His love, that transformation naturally overflows into loving others and revealing God to the world.

Recorded Sunday 22nd February 2026.This sermon teaches that many people claim to believe in God, but true faith is revealed when that belief is put into action, especially in the face of challenges.

Recorded Sunday, 1st February 2026.Drawing from Daniel 1, this sermon calls believers to live with spiritual resolve in a culture that constantly pressures them to conform, reminding them that even in exile and hardship, God remains sovereign and faithful.

Recorded Sunday 01 February 2026.This sermon from Daniel 1 teaches that even when believers live in a culture that pressures them to conform, they can remain faithful by resolving to follow God rather than the values of the world.

Just as Jesus fasted before beginning His ministry, believers are invited to seek God first—feeding on the “bread of heaven” rather than temporary, earthly satisfactions Fasting is presented not as a way to get something from God, but as a way to know Him more deeply—realigning desires, surrendering distractions, and strengthening union with Him before crisis comes.
