Welcome to Village Church! In this powerful message from our "Bigger Than Us" series, Pastor Finu dives into the heart of leaving a legacy that echoes beyond our lifetime. Drawing from 1 Chronicles 29, we explore King David's vision to build a temple for God—a project he would never see completed, yet one he invested in wholeheartedly for God's glory. This week, we're challenged to think about the eternal impact of our lives and how we can join God's redemptive mission to bring the Gospel to all people.

In this message from Pastor Chris, we're invited to step off the sidelines and into the mission of God. A mission that is global, urgent, and deeply personal. Drawing from Genesis, Matthew, and Romans, we see how God's redemptive work has always been about reaching every nation, and how Village Church is playing a part both locally and around the world. From church plants in Cuba to hospital births in Uganda, the impact of faithfulness stretches far beyond what we can see. This is not just about buildings or budgets. It's about participating in a movement that God began long before us, and will continue long after. What if the mission of God has been waiting for you to say yes?

The Holy Spirit is one of the three persons of the Trinity, along with God our Father and the Mother and Jesus, the Son. Scripture tells us that the Holy Spirit was present at creation, descended upon Jesus at his baptism, called the church into being at Pentecost, and is present among us now. Yet many of us find it challenging to understand who the Holy Spirit is and how the Spirit relates to our lives. Today's scripture reading is Mark 1:9-11.

And God? He seems nowhere to be found. But even in the silence, something is stirring beneath the surface. Support the showThe Village Church's sermon podcast is more than just a weekly message. It is an invitation into the great and ongoing story of God's work in the world. Pastors Eric, Mark, Susan, Daniel, and other leaders open the Scriptures not as a collection of abstract ideas but as the living, breathing witness to God's kingdom breaking into our midst. Each episode is a call—not merely to listen, but to take part, to step forward into the life of faith with renewed vision and purpose. Week by week, the pastors and leaders explore the deep rhythms of Christian discipleship—prayer, fasting, generosity—not as isolated duties but as part of a larger, richer, and more beautiful whole. They unpack these ancient practices in light of Jesus himself, the one in whom heaven and earth have come together. But they also turn their attention to the realities of everyday life—relationships, finances, the struggles and joys of being human—demonstrating how the gospel is not merely about what we believe but about how we live as God's renewed people in the present age.

It is 1700 years since the council of Nicaea and the publication of the Nicene Creed - but what are we to make of it?It was the twentieth of May in the year 325 that the Council of Nicaea first met. Pope Francis said ‘The Nicene Creed is a powerful sign of unity among Christians.'The 17 hundredth anniversary of the Council of Nicaea - is being used - by the Roman Catholic Church to push the idea that ‘All Christians are Nicene Christians.'However the difficulty is that while we say the same words, Roman Catholics and Protestants mean vastly different things, and any unity is a fake unity at best. Leonardo de Chirico is pastor of the Church Breccia di Roma and director of the Reformanda Initiative.Rachel Ciano lectures in Christianity and History at Sydney Missionary and Bible College.

In this sermon series leading up to Pentecost, we will explore four ways the Holy Spirit liberates and frees us. Today's scripture reading is Genesis 1:1-2.

Send us a textIn this episode of the Village Church podcast, Pastor Mark carries us further into the Eastertide series, guiding us into the rising storm of Esther chapter 3. The story tightens. What once seemed like palace intrigue now begins to expose something far more urgent, far more familiar—the clash between pride and faithfulness, fear and courage, self-preservation and quiet trust.Here, Mark introduces us to two unforgettable figures: Mordecai, the man of conviction, whose refusal to bow sparks the fury of empire; and Haman, the embodiment of ego, whose power is as fragile as his pride is inflated. The story doesn't resolve quickly, nor does it offer easy answers. Instead, Pastor Mark invites us to remain with the tension—to recognize that this is the world we live in. A world where injustice often goes unchecked, where the faithful are misunderstood, and where God's hand is hidden—but never absent.Support the showThe Village Church's sermon podcast is more than just a weekly message.

The three reflect on the upcoming week-long event held each June at The Village Church, a place where art supplies, cardboard creations, and storytelling collide in joyful chaos.Their voices carry a sense of anticipation as they revisit memorable moments from past camps.

Send us a text In this episode of the Village Church sermon podcast, Pastor Eric opens our Eastertide journey with the story of Esther—a story often tucked between grander tales, yet brimming with quiet, unsettling brilliance. From the start, he reminds us that Esther was written not as a fairy tale of triumph but as a mirror held up to those living in exile. This isn't a tale of fire from heaven or seas splitting open. No—this is a story for those who feel the silence of God, who wait in the shadows, and who wonder whether faithfulness still matters when God seems to be hiding. Esther whispers what we often forget: deliverance may come not in spectacle, but in subtlety. Not with fanfare, but with faith. Support the showThe Village Church's sermon podcast is more than just a weekly message.

In this message from Pastor Finu, we celebrate Village Church's 15-year journey as part of a story far bigger than ourselves. Reflecting on God's faithfulness through the generations, we are reminded that our lives find their deepest meaning when they are woven into His eternal purposes. Just as God invited Abraham into a redemptive story that would bless all nations, He calls us to step into His unfolding work today. Through gratitude, trust, and sacrificial generosity, we are invited to write the next chapter of Village Church's story for the glory of Christ and the good of generations to come.

For decades, the trend across Western countries seemed one-way: away from faith in Jesus Christ. But could the tide be turning? Evangelist and author Glen Scrivener outlines signs of a "quiet revival" emerging, particularly among young people in the United Kingdom (and how things are different in Australia).Drawing on new research from the UK Bible Society and reflecting on wider cultural shifts, Glen discusses why the story of secularisation may not be as inevitable as once thought — and why a surprising number of young adults are returning to church. We also reflect on influences like Jordan Peterson, the role of community in a hyper-individualistic culture, and the opportunities — and challenges — now facing churches in both the UK and Australia.Is this the beginning of a new movement towards Christ? Reach Australia National ConferenceReach Australia's National Conference is from 19 to 22 May 2025 on the Central Coast of NSW.

The death of Pope Francis marks a pivotal moment for Roman Catholics.What does this transition mean for the future of Catholicism and how should Protestants respond?From Vatican City, Leonardo Di Chirico offers a firsthand perspective on reactions in Rome, while Rachel Ciano provides historical context from Sydney. Many Protestant leaders have referred to Francis as a "brother in Christ," but Francis's final public act—granting indulgences during Easter—epitomizes the theological chasm between Catholic and Protestant understandings of salvation. His distinctive Marian devotion and frequent requests for prayers further highlight fundamental differences in how salvation is understood. The contrast between Benedict XVI's emphasis on Roman doctrine and Francis's focus on Catholic universality reveals a pendulum swing in Roman Catholicism that will likely now swing back.

Are you ready to live with intention and adjust your mindset to be fully equipped to handle anything life throws at you? The reality is that you were made for this exact moment in human history. Things may look gloomy, and you may feel discouraged, but because of the promise and hope found in Scripture, you can be brave, confident, and victorious today! Joining us today on the podcast to remind us of the overcoming power, love, and grace that we get the opportunity of clinging to and finding victory in is renowned pastor, elder, and author, Matt Chandler! Matt has served over 20 years as the Lead Pastor at The Village Church in Flower Mound, TX which recently transitioned its 5 campuses into their own autonomous churches. He is also the Executive Chairman of the Acts 29 Network, a large church planting community that trains and equips church planters across the globe. In today’s conversation, Matt joins Zach & Josh to unpack his most recent book, The Overcomers which takes a chapter-by-chapter view of Revelation rather than a line-by-line deep dive, helping readers practically understand what God wants to say to us today through this extraordinary book written thousands of years ago. He also talks about how we should view current events, knowing that the writers of the New Testament understood themselves to be living in the “end times” or “last days.” Believers will be reminded that they are uniquely wired and uniquely placed in this moment in history as part of God’s big plan to push back darkness and to establish light. Christ has overcome, and in Him we, too, are the overcomers!
