Saturday Ev Sermons

The nurturing nature of women, the relentless comparisons in our culture, and our own failings can all contribute to "mum-guilt", yet we ALL have a deeper problem of sin. Jez Reynolds shares about the amazing patience and grace that God showed Paul "the worst of sinners" and also to us.

The book of 1 Timothy is Paul's passionate reminder to the Ephesians about what is truly important in life. Andrew Heard begins this series reminding us that the gospel truth is what matters when lives are at stake for eternity.

How do we experience the presence of God? Grahame Fuller takes us through the whole Bible, where we see how God's presence has been experienced by his people, and is ultimately found in Jesus.

James 2 can be a confronting, and even confusing passage. It talks about how to be saved, and it seems to say something different to what we see in John, or Paul. Is salvation by faith, or do we also need to add good works? We see that James and Paul do not contradict each other, but rather they fight against different errors. The truth is we are saved by faith, not what we do. Yet real faith shows itself in what we do. A challenge to consider if our faith is real.

As the book of John concludes there is much to puzzle over. Andrew Heard speaks on the disciples ordinary context as they wait, contrasted with the extraordinary salvation Jesus brings and the impact this should have on how we live as we wait.

John tells us this book was written that we might believe that Jesus is the Son of God. Graham Fuller challenges us in the battle for Christian belief, that we might trust in God's Word to us.

Our culture is all about personal truth. Andrew Heard takes us through the account of Jesus and Pilate, where Jesus claims he is The Truth and a King who's kingdom is not of this world, it is to come.

"Follow your heart" is the message we hear constantly. But Peter's denial of Jesus teaches us a different message. Walking through John 18:15-32, Dan Ford helps us consider the problem of our hearts, and how Jesus is the solution.

The gospel of John gives us a historical eyewitness account of Jesus' arrest in the Garden. Jez Reynolds brings us deeper into the narrative where we see Jesus' strength as he goes to drink the cup of God's wrath.

Jesus' biggest concern as he goes to his death on the cross is to pray for Christian unity. Graham Fuller helps us understand how we are to live out our unity with God in Jesus, by growing together in common-unity... Community.

Our prayers reveal our priorities. Jez Reynolds opens up Jesus' longest recorded prayer in John 17 which gives us a window into what matters most to him - the glory of God and the good of his people.

What does it mean to be a spirit filled Christian? Andrew Heard encourages us from John 16 to be a spiritual church - one that loves God, desires his Word, and grows in obedience to him.

What is it like to follow Jesus...it's often hard! Andrew Heard shares on Jesus' words to the disciples, as a comfort and forewarning of opposition as we follow His teaching.

What is your big hope for your life? Christianity offers a hope that is bigger, and more secure and solid than anything else in this life. Jez Reynolds shares from the Bible the evidence for this hope we can have in Jesus.

Who goes to heaven? Those who are good, or who aren't super-bad... This popular thinking is dangerously wrong! Andrew Heard speaks from Jesus' story of the Pharisee and Tax Collector where we see our real hope for heaven is in Jesus.

Grahame Fuller highlights the reasons why our life really matters and the eternal consequences of being indifferent towards God.

The Bible claims there is a God and he really cares for you. Andrew Heard shares the incredible news that God has pursued us and welcomes all those who return to him - He is the good Father.

The heavens sing a new song because salvation has come to us in Jesus. Andrew Heard delves into Revelation to help us understand the implications of Jesus death for us.

The message of Christmas is something to sing about. As Jez guides us through Mary's song, we can see that joy is the mark of God and we should sing joyfully with great anticipation for the future.
