Reaching Out To Others - Bill Vasilakis  

Acts 8:4-40  

Pastor Bill Vasilakis, national chairman of Christian Revival Crusade Churches International in Australia, challenges us to seek Christ and our hearts, as to how God wants us to be ministers and missionaries for His kingdom.  

 

Have To/Want To  

Ephesians 5:33-6:9  

Are your days a list of things you have to do or get to do?  Are God's commands a list of things He demands you do or lets you do?  Deep down we hate to be slaves, but sometimes it seems we prefer the lash and the leash to the freedom that God desires for us.  

 

How Do I Get My Mojo Back?  

Psalm 51  

At the heart of the matter it's a matter of the heart.  Somewhere deep down we know that the half hearted effort we can put into life robs both us and those we do it for.  But how do we find the passion for life again?  

 

#TheStruggleIsReal - Danny Morton  

What does it mean to "have faith"?  Is it a matter of strong, stubborn belief, or is it blind, ignorant risk taking?  Does God want us to be thrillseekers in our relationship with Him, or is there something else required?  

 

50 First Dates - Jodie Habermehl  

What's love got to do with it?  Why is passion and devotion so important?  In what way is our relationship with God similar to our human relationships?  

 

Restoration - Peter Heyworth  

You know that feeling.  The feeling of taking something that has seen better days and working on it until it is back to it's original glorious look and function; once again back to how it was originally designed to be.  Cars, furniture, houses, the list goes on.  God takes great delight in restoration work as well.  How can we help Him?  

 

CAP Sunday - David Kendall  

Christians Against Poverty (CAP) is a global organisation created to help people who find themselves in difficult financial situations.  David Kendall helps us to understand the ministry of CAP in the light of the heart of God and the teachings of Jesus.  

 

What's Love Got To Do With It?  

Part of our human condition is that we sometimes portray our personal 'truths' as though the are 'The Truth'.  Sometimes it is the minority squeaky wheel that gets all the focus and attention.  Sometimes we get clouded to the bigger issues and realities by the abundance of noise and our own attachments.  

 

The Love of a Father - Ashley Downing  

Father's Day  

In an era where fathers are becoming less important to society by the day, Pastor Ashley shares with us his experience of father, and fathering, and why we need to be careful when dismissing fathers as less important parents.  

 

The Jesus/You Switch-a-roo  

Romans 5:12-21  

Sometimes we need a big picture to make sense of suffering, and that's what Romans gives us - the victory of Jesus over the "sin that brought suffering" of Adam; and in that victory He gives us the right to reign in Life.  

 

Is This Wrath?  

Romans 5:6-11  

One of the hardest things to separate out in our Christian growth is learning to tell the difference between discipline and punishment.  In this passage Paul helps us see God's love at work so that our pain doesn't become the pain of rejection.  

 

An Excellent and Profitable Message  

Pastor Kevin Hodges  

Have you ever had that experience where you and someone else are disagreeing on a topic, only to find that the cause of the conflict is a differing of topic definition?  What is the definition of 'good'?  What is the definition of 'bad', 'positive', 'negative', 'holy', 'sin' etc.?  For different people these have different meanings and definitions than they do for other people.  Pastor Kevin takes us on a journey to help us clarify a topic that many Christians have differing definitions of.
