This week, we conclude our relationship series ‘Mates, Dates and Marriages,' as we look at how to correctly address conflict in our relationships. The question isn't whether or not we should fight, it's how to fight right. After every conflict should be a reconciliation and a resolution that comes from seeking God.

God's design for sex and intimacy is counter to what the world says. Culture has opinions, but God has the final word! This week Ps Dan & Ashari McGaw unpack what Godly sex and intimacy looks like and the path forward to healing and restoration.

We're in Week 3 of our series The Armour of God — and this week, Ps Dan unpacks what it really means to “put on the breastplate of righteousness.”Righteousness isn't about perfection — it's about protection.

Prayer is not just a Christian duty — it's Christian oxygen. You can survive without many things, but you cannot survive without breath. For the believer, prayer is breath.In Week 2 of our Are You Ready? series, Ps Dan unpacks what it means to be ready in prayer:Humble Prayer – “If my people will humble themselves and pray…” (2 Chron. 7:14)Confessional, Surrendered Prayer – “Your kingdom come, Your will be done” (Matt. 6:10)Bold Prayer – “After they prayed, the place was shaken” (Acts 4:31)Prayer is not about performance, but dependence. It's not just whispers before meals or emergency hotlines to heaven — it's intimacy, surrender, and boldness before God.

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.

Ruth's story began with famine, loss, and emptiness… but it ends with fullness, joy, and a future that points to Jesus. In the final chapter of Ruth, we see redemption completed, losses restored, and a legacy that leads all the way to Christ.Boaz was Ruth's kinsman-redeemer. Jesus is ours. He stepped into our world, took our shame, paid our debt, and brought us into God's family. The story isn't over—it's just beginning.

Llegamos al final de nuestro recorrido por el libro del profeta Joel. En esta última prédica, el pastor Dan nos lleva al valle de la decisión (Joel 3), un lugar donde Dios confronta a las naciones con su justicia, pero al mismo tiempo se muestra como refugio seguro y como el Dios que restaura con abundancia.El mensaje nos recuerda que el día del Señor está cerca, y que cada decisión que tomamos hoy tiene un peso eterno. Sin embargo, también nos llena de esperanza al saber que Dios habita con su pueblo y lo sostiene con amor.“El Señor será un refugio para su pueblo, una fortaleza firme para los suyos.” – Joel 3:16

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.

El libro de Joel no solo habla de devastación, también nos abre una ventana a la esperanza. En esta segunda prédica de la serie, el pastor Dan nos recuerda que, aunque nuestro pasado haya sido marcado por pérdidas y momentos difíciles, Dios tiene el poder de restaurar los años que la langosta se llevó.Joel 2 nos invita a volvernos al Señor con todo el corazón, a confiar en su misericordia y a creer en su promesa de restauración. La última palabra no la tienen el dolor ni el fracaso, sino la fidelidad de Dios."Yo les restituiré los años que comió la oruga, el saltón, el revoltón y la langosta." – Joel 2:25

Ps Dan shares 3 parables Jesus told in Luke 15 about lost things.

Redeeming Love – Week 3 | Covered by the RedeemerIn Ruth 3 we see Ruth take a bold step of faith, laying at the feet of Boaz and asking him to redeem her. Boaz responds with compassion, commitment, and covering – a picture of the greater Redeemer, Jesus Christ.In this message, Pastor Dan unpacks:How bold faith moves us toward the RedeemerHow the Redeemer covers and commitsHow God honours those who wait on His timingThe story of Ruth and Boaz points us to Jesus, the One who covers our shame, clothes us in righteousness, and calls us to trust His perfect timing.

In Ruth 2, we discover that God is always at work behind the scenes, weaving His providence through the ordinary moments of life. Ruth steps out in faith-filled obedience, and God leads her right into the field of Boaz – a man who not only provides but protects and blesses her beyond measure.Boaz's kindness is a powerful picture of Jesus, our true Redeemer:He notices us when we feel unseenHe invites us into His graceHe provides abundantly for our needsHe protects and covers the vulnerableJoin us as we explore how God's providence, provision, and redemption are at work in our lives today – and how the story of Ruth points us to the ultimate Redeemer, Jesus Christ.

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.
