It's time to review what's happened this year and have robust informed conversations about what we will do next year? What won't we do again? How we will do things differently? And why? To make realistic decisions, we need to know what's helpful to measure? And what isn't? Not everything that's measurable matters. And not everything that matters is measurable.Mike Hastie has been serving on the team at Newtown Erskineville Anglican Church, and is about to become the senior pastor of Toongabbie Anglican Church. Mike's the founder of a project called Growing Healthier Churches which is all about helping us pastor better by measuring and tracking.

The speed and anxiety of our lives often means that we don’t slow down to spend meaningful time with God. Reading the scriptures can seem like just another task, or simply more information to process. But God promises that in his word we might find peace,

1 John is a pastoral letter written to believers in the midst of confusion created by false teachers. John writes to reassure God’s people about the reality of Jesus Christ and the way of life found in him. John’s first concern is not to knock down the false teachers but to protect his beloved readers from the destructive lies about their Father. 1 John speaks to us of the profound life of love God has summoned us to, to the absolute centrality of Jesus Christ and how we can have fellowship with God because of Jesus’ death and resurrection. All of this brings us to Christmas. The truth of Christmas is that God has come to have fellowship with us by sending his son and inviting us into the way of life he shares as Trinity: the way of love. At the end of a tiring year, let us reflect on this immovable comfort and anchor for our souls!

My cup overflows" - Psalm 23:5 Our new sermon series will take a look at God’s rich and abundant generosity. His relation to his creation is necessarily abundant - it's who he is. He is not a stingy creator. He goes above and beyond, he is constantly caring, giving and replenishing his creation. He is always ‘rich’ in mercy, glory, goodness, power, might. He had no need to create the world, he did it out of his own overflowing delight in himself and his glory. Come and hear about the overflowing love and mercy of our God.

What should we say about the pursuit of the good life in 2020!? “Meaningless!” is what one one biblical writer says! There is a deep frustration that is being exposed in each of us as we look around at a world we know could be better, and seem to just being going down the toilet. The book of Ecclesiastes outlines one king’s pursuit of meaning; only to find that everything is subject to the tyranny of chance, evil and death. Right now we are also searching...disoriented in a season we couldn’t have written the script for. We need to find solid ground, something to give us meaning and hope. Come with us as we pursue meaning and find out how Jesus is able to speak into this moment and all eternity.

Returning to present living, Paul encourages the Thessalonians to live in light of the future. Their true identity is as children of the day, not night. Therefore, they can live a life of faith, hope, and love (5:8), filled with encouragement (5:11), rejoicing, (5:16) and prayer (5:17). Best of all, they need not have a fear of the future (5:4, 9). Jesus death won all of this for his people (5:10).

Mark’s resurrection account is short! But it is full of evidence of Jesus' resurrection. The response of the women to run away in fear and trembling is suppose to make us question what the right response is. If Jesus has been raised from the dead, he is God’s king, this is not to be feared but its good news to be rejoiced in, good news to be shared!

Jesus pronounces again his verdict on the leaders of his day through his parable of the tenants. The evil of Jesus' day will result in the execution of the beloved son who will become the cornerstone (v.10). Jesus then positions himself in relation to Rome (v.17), the Sadducees (v.24), the teachers of the law (v.34). Jesus warns against the teachers and instead, we are offered the example of the widow. The true way to respond to Christ’s authority is to offer what we have to him.

After the declaration of the nature of Jesus' kingship, we see the importance and obstacles to entering Jesus' kingdom. Jesus is revealed at the transfiguration to be the Son of God. To not listen to him is to deny God (v.7), yet there is doubt in the heart of Israel (v.19), those who walk in the way of the kingdom will not be forgotten (v.36; 41). The reality of judgement makes it better to lose many things in this world to gain the kingdom.
