Mich kicks off our new series in Jonah by looking beyond the famous story of the big fish to the God at the centre of it all. As Jonah runs from God’s call to Nineveh, we discover a God who pursues rebellious people with mercy, even using storms to draw us back to Him. This message challenges us to examine our own stubbornness, trust God’s ways over our own, and remember that we can never outrun a loving God who won't give up on us.

Through Titus, Romans, and the story of God's covenant with Abraham, this message unpacks the grace of God and reminds us that salvation isn't earned by trying harder to be better, but received as a GIFT through Jesus.

What helps us say "no" to temptation, distraction, and compromise? In the second part of this series, Darryl continues through Titus 2, showing that the grace of God doesn't just forgive us, it trains us. Through the lives of Joseph, Nehemiah, and Josiah, we're challenged to say a bigger "yes" to Jesus, stay focused on the great work God has called us to, and avoid the regret that comes from fighting the wrong battles.

Drawing from Psalm 119, he explores how Scripture guides us, counsels us, and strengthens us through life's toughest seasons.

Abraham believed God, even when there seemed to be no reason for hope, and it was credited to him as righteousness. In this preach, Darryl unpacks Genesis 15 and the covenant God made with Abraham, reminding us that friendship with God begins with faith and trust in His promises. But where there is covenant, there will always be vultures circling, waiting to steal what God is doing in us.

In this message, Darryl takes us to the road to Emmaus and the story of two friends walking through confusion, disappointment, and unanswered questions. As they wrestle with what’s just happened, Jesus comes alongside them even when they don’t recognise Him. It’s a powerful reminder that we’re not meant to walk this journey alone, and that even when we feel like giving up or going back, Jesus is still near, still speaking, and still inviting us to ask Him to stay. One real encounter with Him can change everything and put us back on the road again.

In this message, Darryl takes us to one of the most personal moments in the resurrection story. Two simple words: “and Peter.” Looking at Peter’s journey, from bold declarations to distance, denial, and breaking down, we’re reminded how easy it is to drift, mess up, and feel like we’ve disqualified ourselves. But the beauty of the gospel is this: even after all of that, Jesus still calls him by name.
If you’ve ever felt distant, disappointed in yourself, or unsure where you stand with God, this is a powerful reminder that He hasn’t forgotten you—He’s still calling your name.

This Easter Sunday, we celebrate Jesus not only as our risen, victorious King of Kings but also as our Gentle King. We trace the thread of His gentleness through his birth, life, ministry, death, resurrection and sending of His Spirit. May this exploration help us understand gentleness better, allow Jesus’ gentleness to heal the places in our hearts that have been hurt by harshness and challenge us to reflect and extend His gentleness to a hurting, harsh world.

Darryl brings a powerful Easter Friday message titled “The Victory is in the V.” Looking at the cross, he unpacks how what looked like defeat was actually the turning point of victory. Jesus didn’t avoid the suffering… He stepped into it, and in doing so, secured something far greater than we could imagine. This is the story of a victory that didn’t look like winning at first—but changed everything forever.

This week, we step into a brand new season—our first service in the tent—and Rory from 3Ci brings us a powerful message.
In this message, Rory takes us to Palm Sunday and reminds us that when Jesus comes, He comes gently—but with purpose. He calls us to untie whatever we’ve been holding onto—our time, our resources, our lives—and make it available for God to use. More than that, he paints a picture of what this new house in the tent is meant to be: a place of peace, gentleness, healing, and hope, where the blood of Jesus restores what’s been broken and people find real freedom. It’s both a challenge and an invitation—to stay surrendered, stay soft, and let the King ride into every part of our lives.

This was a special one—our last Sunday in the school hall after almost 9 years. In this message, Darryl takes us to Nehemiah and asks a simple but searching question: what actually stirs your heart?
Looking back at everything God has done—from first prayer meetings to lives being changed—he reminds us that church was never about a building, but about people being moved by the things of God. As one season ends and another begins, this is a call to not lose heart, not drift, and not become spectators—but to stay stirred, stay faithful, and keep saying yes to Jesus.
Because at the end of it all, there’s only one Hero of the house—and His name is Jesus.

This week, Wendy from 3Ci shares a powerful message titled The Privilege of Suffering. Through Scripture she reminds us that following Jesus has always included both joy and hardship.
Looking at what the Bible says about suffering, Wendy shows that these moments aren’t meaningless or wasted. God often uses the very things we’d rather avoid to shape our faith, deepen our trust, and draw us closer to Him.

This week, Kai from 3Ci shares a powerful message titled When the Wine Runs Out. Preaching from John 2, he uses the miracle at Cana to show how it can mirror the emptiness we sometimes feel in our own lives. We’ve all had that moment where everything looks fine on the outside, but on the inside, the tank is empty.
,
Kai reminds us that Jesus doesn’t offer a quick top-up or a coping strategy — He offers Himself. As the true Bridegroom, He steps into our lack, carries the weight, and turns what’s run dry into something abundant. And like Mary, our response is simple: bring Him the need… and do whatever He says.

This week, Chad from 3Ci shares a powerful message about identity and grace. In Framed, Forgiven, and Fathered, he unpacks how the enemy tries to frame us with guilt, shame, and accusation—but Jesus steps in to forgive us and bring us home as sons and daughters. This is a reminder that you are not defined by your past, your mistakes, or the labels placed on you. In Christ, you are forgiven, fully known, and deeply fathered.

In this message, Darryl brings us back to the heart of it all—the name of Jesus. As we walk through the opening chapter of Mark, he reminds us that the Gospel isn’t about platforms, personalities, culture, or performance. It’s about one name. From deserts and wild animals to nets being dropped and lives being rewritten, we see how Jesus meets deserters, restores the broken, and turns ordinary people into living stories of grace.

Walking through the story of Moses and the burning bush, he shows how God reveals Himself not as distant or untouchable, but as personal—so personal that Moses knew Him on a first-name basis. From murderer to exile to friend of God, Moses’ story reminds us that God meets us where we are, calls us by name, and invites us into a real relationship.

In this message, Mich turns our attention to how Jesus reveals Himself as the Great Physician. Walking through the story of Matthew’s calling in Matthew 9, she shows us how Jesus, as the Great Physician, meets the spiritually sick right where they are and extends the “medicine of salvation” to them.
While He invites them to follow him, He also addresses Pharisaical self-righteousness. This ancient story still carries immense weight for us today.

In this message, Darryl kicks off a new year with a new series by reminding us that names carry stories. A name isn’t just a label—it carries weight, tone, history, and meaning. And when it comes to God, His name isn’t casual or symbolic; it reveals His character. As Isaiah declares, God doesn’t respond to chaos with strategies or slogans, but by revealing who He is.
When life feels confusing, heavy, or uncertain, this is a reminder that God’s character hasn’t changed—and His name never fails.

Drawing from Luke 1 and the words of Mary, Zechariah, and Jesus Himself, he unpacks the meaning of God’s mercy—tender, undeserved, and life-changing. Whether you walked into church full of faith, full of questions, or just needing a fresh start, this message is a reminder that God’s mercy meets us where we are and invites us to extend that same mercy to others. This Christmas, it’s not just Merry Christmas—it’s Mercy Christmas.

Using stories from Scripture and real life, he shows how God can take the dry, difficult, and hidden parts of our lives and turn them into vineyards of growth and fruitfulness. Whether you’re facing trouble, waiting for breakthrough, or wrestling with your faith, this is your reminder that God’s not done with you. The valley can still grow something beautiful.

Using stories from Deuteronomy and 1 Kings, he unpacks what it means to trust a God who doesn’t just show up on the mountain tops, but walks with us through the hardest valleys too. Whether you’re celebrating, struggling, or somewhere in between, this is a reminder that you can flourish anywhere—because He’s the God of both.

In this message, Dean reminds us that life can often feel like one long series of waiting rooms—but how we wait makes all the difference. Looking at the story of Simeon and Anna in Luke, he shows how waiting with the Holy Spirit changes everything. Instead of wasting the wait, they worshipped, prayed, and stayed faithful—and when the time came, they saw Jesus. This is a reminder that even in the waiting, God is working, and if we invite the Spirit into our waiting, we might just see Jesus there too.

In this message, Darryl takes us to Romans 8 to unpack the first of the Father’s gifts—the gift of identity. He reminds us that being a child of God isn’t about what we do, what we’ve achieved, or what others think of us—it’s about being adopted into God’s family through Jesus. Darryl demonstrates how the Holy Spirit provides us with assurance that we belong, loved by a Father who invites us to call Him “Abba.”

In this message, Dean continues our journey through the fruit of the Spirit—this time unpacking patience, kindness, and goodness. He reminds us that real patience is more than just waiting in traffic, kindness isn’t weakness, and goodness isn’t “meh”—it’s strength with integrity. When we stay connected to the Spirit, the fruit grows naturally, even when life feels frustrating or people are difficult.

In this message, Morgan uses a simple building story to show how easy it is to drift when we measure our lives against the wrong standard. One little compromise here, one small “it’s not a big deal” there—and before we know it, we’re way off track. But Romans 8 reminds us that the Spirit is our true measuring tape, leading us into life and peace. Whether you feel like you’re running strong or barely holding on, this is a reminder that the Spirit is still calling you back, and nothing can separate you from God’s love.

In this message, Michelle reminds us that the Holy Spirit was never meant to be a “familiar stranger” in our lives—someone we know about but don’t really know. We were made to reflect God’s glory, but if we’re honest, we often chase our own instead.
So here are some tough questions worth asking: Am I living for God’s glory, or do I crave the spotlight for myself? Where is self-glory sneaking into my desires, ambitions, or relationships? Am I really yielding daily to the Spirit’s leading so that His character is reflected in me? This is a call to stop sidelining the Spirit and start letting Him transform us from the inside out.

In this message, Darryl shows us that trying to live the Christian life in our own strength is like swinging a hammer at solid rock—it’s exhausting and it doesn’t get you very far. But when we plug into the Holy Spirit, the pneuma of God, it’s like picking up a pneumatic drill—suddenly there’s power to break through what once felt impossible. This is a call to stop striving, start plugging in, and let God’s Spirit bring freedom, joy, and real change from the inside out.

In this first message of The GIFT for Life, Dean kicks off our journey into the Holy Spirit—not as some mysterious force, but as one of the greatest gifts God’s ever given us. Using the image of a rearview mirror, he challenges us to look back and spot the moments where God’s Spirit has already been at work in our lives, even when we didn’t notice it at the time. It’s a fresh reminder to stop just admiring the “wrapping paper” and start living fully in the presence of the One who’s been with us from the very beginning.

In this message, Darryl takes us to the story of Rebekah at the well—just going about her day when a simple act of service changed everything. He reminds us that serving isn’t about position, perfection, or who’s watching. It’s about saying yes when the Holy Spirit prompts us, even in the small things. Whether it’s a glass of water or something way bigger, this is a call to serve humbly, with no strings attached, because we’re doing it for Jesus.

In this week's message, Tonie delves into God's profound wonders and sacrificial love, inviting us to seek Him earnestly. Drawing from Acts 17:24-27, we're reminded of God's intimate involvement in our lives, orchestrating events to allow us to reach out to Him. All we must do is seek Him because he's never far from us.
This week, Darryl and Michelle share a message from Romans 12 about being a real, radical, and relational church.
Get ready to be challenged as Darryl takes us on a journey of faith and possibility in Part 1 of the series "With God, nothing is impossible." We're reminded that what seems impossible to us is entirely possible by God.
On Easter Sunday, Darryl shares the profound significance of Easter Sunday through the lens of John 20 and discusses intimacy, advocacy, ministry, and the power of the holy spirit.
On Good Friday, Mich shares on one of Jesus’ last seven statements on the cross, He spoke out forgiveness. Will we accept the gift of forgiveness He offers and follow His example and instruction to forgive others?
🎙️ This week on the podcast, Darryl continues our journey through the life of Job in Part Two of our series. Drawing from Job's story and biblical teachings, we look at the importance of keeping our advice and responses focused on biblical advice. Are we like Elihu, the comforting and empathetic friend, guiding others towards the greatness and majesty of God during times of crisis?

This week, Dean delves into the concept of truth. Using scripture, he highlights the deceptive nature of the Devil and the importance of seeking out God's truth. We challenge the notion of relative truth and explore the idea of living 'my truth' versus living in accordance with God's (the real) truth.
Tonie reminds us this week on the podcast that while life may throw challenges our way, and we may often question our purpose, we're here for a reason. As he shares relatable stories and profound lessons from the Bible, Tonie reminds us that our potential is a gift from God, meant to serve our purpose and THAT purpose is to bring praise and glory to our creator. In other words, our potential should serve our purpose, not vice versa. So, whether you're navigating the challenges of daily life or pursuing your dreams, remember that you have endless potential for eternal purpose.
This week, Darryl delves into the unanswered questions found in the book of Job. As we journey through life, especially in our commitment to know God better, we encounter seasons of both triumph and trial. When things are going well, it's easy to seek God eagerly, but what happens when the storms hit? Do we trust Him even without answers?
Join us for this week's episode as Morgan opens up and shares his powerful testimony, revealing how God's guidance becomes evident when we choose to live a life fully surrendered to Him.
Tune in as Darryl shares his wisdom and encourages listeners to embrace their roles and live by the timeless truths of the Bible.
This week, Darryl challenges us to allow God to use the storms of life to strengthen us, just as a tree develops stress bark in the storms to reinforce itself.
In this week's preach, Tonie takes us on a journey through the promises God has made and kept and shares real talk about the challenges and victories in our walk with Jesus.

Judas witnessed Christ's compassion first-hand, Jesus' love for the sinner. Yet when he committed sin, he ran away from Jesus. How many times have we done this, we fail, we sin, we disappoint, we betray, we make promises and then we break them.
Run to Jesus, Return to Him and receive His forgiveness and be restored.
A woman who pours out her love for Jesus.
She wets His feet with her tears, and wipes them with hair.
She pours her perfume out on the Saviours feet.
A woman who wasn't loved, who wasnt clean, who wasnt accepted, but Jesus saw her...
J
An unwanted, uncared for woman and how her encounter with Jesus changes her life forever.
Philippians 4:13 - I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
A deeper look into this scripture.
Its about being content despite our circumstances.
A closer look into Passion Week.
Jesus died and took the sin so we can be clean - as white as snow.
The only way we can deal with complaining is by realising that Jesus made up for our shortfall. That way we become a blessing.

The start of our series on Philippians
The three important points we look at:
God is Beautiful
God is Powerful
God is Practical
We take a look at Naomi in the book of Ruth, we see how bitterness was part of her life after she lost her husband.
What causes bitterness?
1. Hardship causes bitterness
2. People cause bitterness
3. Self Righteousness causes bitterness
A look at Elimelech-litus, the disease that God's people live with, when we move outside of the centre of God's will.
When trouble hits and you feel like running, we must run to the centre, to the throne room of Jesus.
The book of Ruth, a love story of weeping, working, waiting and then a wedding.
The 4 reasons to study the book of Ruth:
1. Because its in the word of God
2. Its a love story
3. Its the story of biblical manhood and womanhood
4. The Glory of Jesus
God wants you to come close to hear his voice
1. Results are dependent on God
2. We need to take our eyes back to the redemptive blood of Jesus
3. Living with the call of God on your life is going to cost you something
We’ve all got something, lets bring that and use that for the call that God has on our lives, don’t compare with others, just do what God has called you to do.
Sometimes, when we've been suffering for a long time we think God has forgotten us. He sees and He knows, and He is still busy during these times. God digs deep wells within us which become a source to others in their suffering. Let us continue to help one another in this journey of faith.
As Christians we are all running this race of faith. We all want to get to the finish line, but the race routes mapped out for us look very different - they are as unique as what we are!
God calls us to make a move whether its to refuse to stay stuck or make a Godly choice, we need to see the bigger picture.
The road to a successful marriage has never been straight or smooth, probably never will be, it takes a lot of work and prayer.
1. Love your heart out
2. Focus on the Covenant not the Contract

4 Calls of Christmas
1. Leave the timing to God
2. Call to be named (Jesus has the naming rights)
3. Call to courage
4. Message of inclusion
The enemies of our soul are the world, the devil and the flesh. It is important to know their tactics if we are to fight the good fight of faith.
The gospel says "I am accepted, therefore I obey." Religion says "I obey, therefore I am accepted."
A look into John 21, we learn four things:
1. Different groups of people around the breakfast table.
2. Run towards Jesus
3. A Jesus church always recommissions people
4. Do what God has called YOU to do, don't worry about anyone else, JUST FOLLOW JESUS.
We are living in a country where crime is huge, corruption is rife, and we believe that God has called us to be in this country at this time, like Daniel, God wanted him in the lions den.
God's grace is sufficient for us, grace is when we surrender, when we fall to our knees and recognize our weakness, when we call out to God, he will tell us His grace is sufficient. Grace is the ability to face your day. Message shared with us by Brad Scott.
A look into Psalm 63, David was in the wilderness when he wrote this Psalm. Wilderness times are significant in the bible, there are over 300 references. God is there, He shows up powerfully in the wilderness. God uses wilderness experiences in the Bible profoundly and He will use yours, for your good, for the good of others, and most of all, for His glory.
A look through Psalm 2, 22 and 110. Jesus is our King, He is our Saviour and He is our High Priest.
Psalm 142 - Loneliness.
David is running fro Saul, he leaves his family and friends and goes on his own. He finds himself in the depths of a cave all alone.
He cries out to God to rescue him.
A look into Psalms 40, learning to wait. Compared to being in a doctors waiting room, allowing the doctor to work on our hearts.
Psalm 32, Confessing our transgressions - David did not get there by himself, he confessed (acknowledged) and then God forgave him. He came back to life like a tree bearing good fruit.
A look into how David dealt with his anxiety, David ran to God, Hid in God, Cried out to God in Prayer and Trust God. Will we...?
Part 6 in the series of Psalms - Psalm 107. Cry out to the Lord whether you are a wanderer, a prisoner, foolish or in a storm.
Part 5 in the series of Psalms - Psalm 133. It is good and pleasant when God's people live together in unity. .
Dancing with Jesus, Psalm 132 helps us understand how we can be more undignified for God. We also unpack 2 Samuel 6 where the Ark is brought to Jerusalem.
A deeper look into Psalms 139, where we discover that we are fully seen and fully loved by God and that God chooses us and knows us. We learn that God is David's safe place, and David trusted God fully.
Part 2 in our series on Psalms. We explore the psalms of ascent from 120-134. We are pilgrims on a journey, the Lord watches over us and will not let our foot slip. There will be celebration in His church as we move from a focus on 'I' to 'we'. As in the Psalms, let us laugh and cry as we sow into the next generation.
Ephesians 5:19 encourages us to speak to one another with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. This is the first part in a series from the book of Psalms.
Like Joseph, God created us to be dreamers. Have you got a dream in your heart? Like Joseph's dream yours will probably be different to what you thought it would be, it will be harder than you imagine and will probably take longer than what you'd like it to, but, if it's a God-breathed dream, it will undoubtedly be better!
