Here, Cam explores a key challenge spoken by angles in the resurrection narrative: Why do you look for the living among the dead?
Cam takes some time to explore the rather empty streets of our town, telling elements of the Easter narrative from various locations. This year the challenge is to consider the ways the "crowd" will respond to Christ, and that stepping away from it to make your own mind may be the best thing you will ever do!
Cam speaks from his workshop once again, exploring the idea of "looking up" as we move into the start of Ephesians Ch2. There's a lot of visual work in this particular message, particularly as Cam explores the idea of 'Grace.' We invite you to see the video version of the message on our website or YouTube channel.
After a number of things going on with Baptism and other world events shaping things, Cam continues the series in Ephesians, looking at the second half of Chapter 1, calling us to continue 'look up.'
This sermon was filmed in the time of social isolation that is sweeping the globe at this time. Cam filmed and shared this from his workshop, which will explain the different sound quality.

This episode opens up with some background on Ephesus first, drawing also upon some interesting parallels we saw while on our recent Thailand Missions Trip; but it also leads up towards a modern Western application on how we might see its relevance for ourselves also. Today's passage focuses on Ephesians 1:1-14.
This is the last message in our series from the book of Malachi. Thanks to all who have come on this journey with us, and stay tuned for our next series!

In this installment, Marguerite bravely tackles a difficult passage in Malachi Chapter 2 regarding marriage and covenant.

This is the opening message in a new short series for 2020: A 7-week journey through the book of Malachi. This week Cam launches with some history and the first few verses, showing us a rather simple blemish in faith that can be easily overlooked.
As a church, we hold four main values, and we revisit these each year to consider their expression in the year to come. Some might consider this "vision casting," but in our case it's more of a case of "value casting," In this fourth session, Cam speaks into our last value - about raising up people who can lead through service.

Ps Marguerite kicks of the final virtue of this preaching series as we cross from Brotherly Kindness to Love.

Tony bring out the idea of "Philadelphia" (the Greek word used in the Bible for love among family members) and brings it to life as he considers the way we use this word even today.
In this session, Cam talks about being "REAL." This is an acronym known within the men's ministry of our church, and it makes sense to bring it out in the whole community based on the Virtue we're currently exploring.
In this session, Cam brings an overview of the idea of what it means, and how it plays out in our lives

This is a shorter message that was delivered at our latest Baptism and Child dedication service on May 19. This week Cam explores part of Proverbs 6, tying it with the wisdom of parenting.
The natural way to go from a discussion on Knowledge is to start taking about Wisdom. This week, and for the next month, we'll be talking around Proverbs and some ideas about this subject. Today, Cam sets the scene with a behind the scenes look at Solomon before Proverbs is written.
