Sex, Politics & Religion Talk #4 by Mike Bird; Romans 16.1-16  

Mike Bird is an Anglican Minister, Academic Dean and New Testament lecturer at Ridley College in Melbourne.  Mike describes himself as a “biblical theologian” who endeavours to bring together biblical studies and systematic theology. He believes that the purpose of the church is to “gospelize,” that is to preach, promote, and practise the Gospel-story of the Lord Jesus Christ. As an industrious researcher, Mike has written and edited over thirty books including Bourgeois Babes, Bossy Wives, and Bobby Haircuts: A Case for Gender Equality in Ministry.  In this message he expounds Romans 16 and explores women in leadership in the Bible.

Sex, Politics & Religion Talk #3 by Allison Troth; Matthew 5.27-30   Between 7 and 10pm the cafes and casual bars of Pat Pong Rd flip their signs to become massage parlours, cuddle bars, discos, spas... 60% of the girls working that 2km strip are under age... they are tricked and stolen and trafficked. Those young girls will service between 7 and 10 men a night. Yes, they are prostitutes, but not by choice. One could claim the Bible has a preoccupation with the sin of prostitutes - they are mentioned dozens of times. But it is the weight of sin itself which is the issue, and the community which surrounds that sin. So what else can we do? Don't turn away like I did.  As Christians, let's join in force against this sin to rescue the least and the lost.

Sex, Politics & Religion Talk #2 by John Englezos; Matthew 5.13-16   Spoken word poet, author and performer, John's work centres around notions of Hope, Identity and Wonder. Whether its one on one speaker coaching, workshopping or his own performance, John brings out what is authentic and memorable in people's stories. John walks gently in any space he enters speaks to us about what it looks like to show genuine hospitality and speak truth and life in non religious spaces.  In the absence of common language and ritual, how do we be salt and light in our ever-changing context?

Sermon by Adam Cetrangolo; Hebrews 11.32 - 12.2   While little is known about the author or the audience of the book of Hebrews, we do know that their faith was 'under fire'.  The temptation for this first audience was to retreat to a form of quasi-Christian-Judaism that was more familiar and more acceptable to those they lived among.  In the earlier chapters, the author shows the futility of faith without Jesus.  In chapter 11 - the focus of this series - the author draws from the 'heroes' of the Hebrew Scriptures to show how their faith points to Jesus who is ultimately the pioneer and perfecter of our faith.    This short practical summer series will explore the definition of faith, the way it is lived out practically, staying the course, faith under fire and how to share it with others.

An informal reflection led by Adam Cetrangolo on the Pastoral Implications of 1 Timothy, Chapters 2 & 3   After preaching over two weeks from 1 Timothy chapters 2 and 3 and fielding questions, it became apparent that there were a number of pastoral questions that were arising that were important to unpack in a more relaxed setting than a Sunday Service.  This recording is an attempt to do this while answering specific questions asked on Sunday 25 October.   The theme of 1 Timothy is that the gospel leads to practical, visible change in the lives of those who believe it. It is often thought that the theme is church order, but the discussion of church offices is simply a piece of the larger argument that the true gospel, in contrast to false teaching, will always lead to godliness in its adherents.   This sermon can also be watched on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/yx_Cfg-MVac

Sermon by John E; Ecc 12.1 - 14

Ecclesiastes is a reconnaissance: the reflections of a man who knows God but explores what it is like to seek meaning and purpose of life from other things.  As such it is a book that contains practical wisdom for our time.  Like many today, he attempts to determine the meaning of life by progressively chasing the things that make for success in the world, i.e. knowledge, power, wealth, etc., only to find each time that the search does not yield the desired result.  This book seems dark and pessimistic in parts and yet builds to a satisfying conclusion about where true wisdom and purpose are ultimately found.    Full sermon texts can be obtained here: http://sermons.stcaths.net    Read Ecc 12.1 - 14 here: http://bible.oremus.org/?ql=468517885

Sermon by Stephanie Frobose; Ecc 7.1 - 20

Ecclesiastes is a reconnaissance: the reflections of a man who knows God but explores what it is like to seek meaning and purpose of life from other things.  As such it is a book that contains practical wisdom for our time.  Like many today, he attempts to determine the meaning of life by progressively chasing the things that make for success in the world, i.e. knowledge, power, wealth, etc., only to find each time that the search does not yield the desired result.  This book seems dark and pessimistic in parts and yet builds to a satisfying conclusion about where true wisdom and purpose are ultimately found.    Full sermon texts can be obtained here: http://sermons.stcaths.net    Read Ecc Ecc 7.1 - 20 here: http://bible.oremus.org/?ql=467051650

Jude 20-25

Sermon by Adam Cetrangolo given on 23 February 2020

The letter of Jude is one of the shortest in the New Testament.  Jude, most likely the half-brother of Jesus, is desperate for his readers to hold on to God’s truth and not to be led astray by false teaching.  He encourages his readers to stick to the teaching they were originally given, and to contend for the true faith.  This message resonates strongly in our 21st century culture that seeks to deconstruct traditional theology.  This three-week study aims to resource followers of Jesus to perceive wrong doctrine and to lovingly seek truth.

As we launch into 2020 we are taking four weeks to revisit our values (or pillars) that underpin our vision and mission. Our four values, derived from Matthew 10.5-15, are: To Teach, To Pray in Power, To Give Freely and to Partner with People of Peace. During these four weeks we will turn to the Gospel of Mark for fresh inspiration into these key themes with an aim to shape our culture and our goals in the year ahead around these values.

We saw the glory with our own eyes, the one-of-a-kind glory, like Father, like Son, Generous inside and out, true from start to finish.

Sermon by Adam Cetrangolo given on 22nd December 2019

The book of Romans has been described as God’s legal document and the believers title deed. It is one of the most succinct outlines of the intentional relationship between every believer and the God of Heaven and Earth; the details of how that relationship has come about and the affirmation of our changed status as citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven. One of the motivations for Paul's letter was the Gospel coming under attack both by Jews and Antinomians. The Jews insisting that salvation comes from the observance of the Law and the Antinomians believing that if we are saved by grace we therefore have license to do whatever we want. These two extreme views were driving a wedge in the young Church and only the power of the Gospel - clearly defined - would enable the effective spread of this life-changing message. This study of the book of Romans therefore invites us to also depth our understanding of the Gospel as well as allow our hearts to be convicted by the Holy Spirit.

It is one of the most succinct outlines of the intentional relationship between every believer and the God of Heaven and Earth; the details of how that relationship has come about and the affirmation of our changed status as citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven. One of the motivations for Paul's letter was the Gospel coming under attack both by Jews and Antinomians. The Jews insisting that salvation comes from the observance of the Law and the Antinomians believing that if we are saved by grace we therefore have license to do whatever we want. These two extreme views were driving a wedge in the young Church and only the power of the Gospel - clearly defined - would enable the effective spread of this life-changing message. This study of the book of Romans therefore invites us to also depth our understanding of the Gospel as well as allow our hearts to be convicted by the Holy Spirit.

Sermon by Adam Cetrangolo given on 22nd September 2019   Prayer is one of the dominant themes in Luke's Gospel. Jesus not only teaches about prayer in several unique parables, but Jesus is seen praying in Luke more than all three other Gospels combined.
