Our God is a consuming fire (Hebrews 12:29), Jesus will return with blazing fire in his eyes (Revelation 1:14), we will be baptised with fire (Luke 3:16). We are representatives of a Holy God and we are to honour Him accordingly.

Get Stoked: Week 3

Ps Melanie encourages us that staying white hot for Jesus happens in our lives when we are living in community. As we are devoted to Christ our loyalty and steadfastness will shine through. Our reason for living ought to be to become more and more like Christ.

Get Stoked: Week 2

When the coals in a fire go out, they are no longer fit for purpose. So it is true with believers - we need to stoke the flames. Ps Melanie shares that the christian life cannot be lived in isolation and if we try, the fire slowly dies. However, fellowship with other believers can fire us up!

Get Stoked: Week 1

Ps Amanda states that there is a place for every type of person within the community, even those who are really different need to be in the community for someone who is equally different to connect to. There is a place for everyone. Being a connection point for others is equally important as connecting with others.

Done: Week 3

Nicholas spoke of the four major causes of relationship breakdown: criticism, defensiveness, contempt and stonewalling. He mentioned the importance of differentiation They then answered some interesting questions posed online by church embers about communication and conflict res...

Contact Lens: Week 2

Ps Paul spoke about the limitations we place on ourselves when we adopt a stance of defensiveness. We need to be in a place where we can receive correction in whatever form it takes without reacting defensively. Often this will mean laying down our own agendas and allowing God to soften our hearts so that we don’t react defensively.

Mother's Day

Ps Melanie talks about the role of mothers. They know everything about their children as God knows everything about us. He has a particular plan for us, but are we prepared to say yes to Him?

Contact Lens: Week 1

Ps Melanie shares on the importance of forgiveness as a dynamic in our lives, as it frees us to live a life forgiven. Forgiveness of our sins and forgiveness of others who have wronged us in our past is crucial, otherwise we are stuck in bondage.

Easter Sunday

He is risen! Ps Melanie shows us how our hope is found in Jesus’ death and resurrection.

Good Friday

At the cross Jesus paid the ultimate price as the sin He took on himself separated Himself from the father. One of those crucified with Him understood his own guilt as well s Jesus’s total innocence. We accept this sacrifice when we realise our need for His grace and mercy. Our messes and shame lose their power at the cross.

Unstuck: Week 3

Ps Mel shared how people get stuck through past hurts because they become cynical and only trust in God can move them back to where He wants them to be. Cynicism can lead to bitterness and addictions. Equally dangerous is when a person is believing in a false hope, one that doesn’t emanate from God. This person needs to leave false hope behind and put their faith in the living hope of the Lord.

Unstuck: Week 2

Ps Paul talks about how to deal with three significant ways we can get stuck: issues from our past, believing lies, and making bad choices.

Unstuck: Week 1

Ps Mel outlined four ways that we can be stuck in our lives: taking responsibility for others, refusing to let go of a season that has finished, ignoring what God is telling you to do, or you've handed the control of your life to others.

Get Connected: Week 4

This week we first heard from Tim Taylor who spoke about the importance of reading the word at least four times a week, and the great capacity it has to change our lives and connect us with God. Ps Mel then spoke about the need for worship as a form of positive connection is our lives. Worship has the capacity to change what is going on inside us, which will in turn influence our outward behaviour.

Get Connected: Week 2

One of the ways we grow as christians is through people we meet in the christian context of Groups. We learn to love people, be respective of their personalty type & character, and this helps with the development of our patience, acceptance and tolerance. We cannot do this in isolation.

Get Connected: Week 1

Every person craves connection - we are created for it. As Christians we are commissioned to make disciples of Jesus and 1 Corinthians 9:21-23 suggests we should lead people to Christ by serving them.
