People Who Partner
Sunday, 18 June 2023
by Phil Irvine
Passage: Philippians 1:1-11
Duration: 30 mins 12 secs
When we believe and trust in the gospel message, Jesus comes into our lives and we are brought into this wonderful heavenly relationship with God through Him. But He also brings us into a relationship with one another, other believers who have responded to the same gospel message. He wants us to partner together so that we may continue to share this message with the whole world. This is what we see happening with Paul and the church at Philippi, Paul says he "prays with joy because of their partnership in the gospel."

People of Peace
Sunday, 04 June 2023

Passage: Acts 16:11-15
Duration: 18 mins 30 secs
Jesus is the Prince of Peace and as He sends us out into the world He tells us to look for People of Peace to share the Gospel with. What is a Person of Peace? It is someone that will welcome both the messenger and the message and be a doorway for a whole new community coming to hear the Gospel. Today we look at Lydia whose heart was opened by God to receive the message of salvation and then opened the way for others to hear the Gospel.

People of Prayer

Passage: Mark 1:35-39
Duration: 25 mins 49 secs
We all know that we are to be a people of prayer, but we often struggle to know how and what to pray for. Here in these 5 verses, Jesus models to us what prayer does, especially when we think of mission. First, prayer aligns our lives with the purpose of God. Second, prayer brings to our attention what God wants so we can do His will and not our own.

The Message of Salvation
Sunday, 21 May 2023
by Paul Rees
Passage: Romans 10:2-15
Duration: 26 mins 53 secs
God's message of salvation cannot be found in a version of Jesus that suits us. The central message of the gospel has been given to us in written form to ensure it is the message that God wants us to hear. As Christians, we have the responsibility to reach out to others who do not know Christ so that they have the opportunity of believing on Him and receiving eternal life.

Trusting in God
Sunday, 14 May 2023

Passage: 1 Samuel 1:1-28
Duration: 22 mins 14 secs
As we celebrate Mother's Day, today's message is the wonderful story of Hannah who trusted herself to God through all the ups and downs of life. She saw herself as a servant of God, rather than a casuality of circumstance. Hannah was willing to abide by God's will and waited upon Him in everything. What a great example she is for all of us today as we look towards God and trust in Him in all things that come our way.

Showing Love to Others
Sunday, 07 May 2023
by Alan Endicott
Passage: 1 John 3:11-20
Duration: 19 mins 14 secs
We can see troubles that were happening in the early churches of the New Testament. Over the centuries, things did not change much in the church with rules, regulations and self interests dominating, when what should have been shown was love to others. Today, when facing issues in the church, we need to determine what God wants. We need to show love to others by what we do - love in action! How will you react when faced with a difficult situation?

Disciples

Passage: Luke 24:36-49
Series: Luke
Duration: 27 mins 38 secs
In this last section of the Gospel of Luke, we see how Jesus re-connects with His disciples after their disbelief of His resurrection. We see Jesus showing 'Compassion' rather than criticism, 'Connection', rather than separation and 'Commissioning' them with a task rather than dismissing them for their lack of faith.

Passage: Luke 24:13-35
Series: Luke
Duration: 24 mins 15 secs
As these two disciples travel from Jerusalem to Emmaus we get to see the journey that every Christian needs to make. That is, as we read the scriptures, we allow Jesus to open our eyes and hearts to how the words speak of him and respond in faith to those words.

Responding to the Resurrection
Sunday, 09 April 2023

Passage: Luke 24:1-12
Series: Luke
Duration: 21 mins 15 secs
In this passage, the women were asked, "Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here, He is risen!" The women "came and saw" and then "go and tell". As Christians, we need to look for opportunities to tell others about Jesus, who died on the cross for all the sins of mankind, but has risen from the dead to show He has victory over all things.
