Part 4 - "Serving"

Jesus came to serve and not to be served. Naturally, human beings come to be served and not to serve. If we want to be great then it's going to look like a life of service.

Part 2 - "Challenging"

Part of our loving of others is not to affirm every decision someone makes! Sometimes we need to challenge, provoke and urge others to live lives that are pleasing to God.

Part 1 - "Raising"

Tomi Oyebadejo and Kirsten Higgins tag-team preach in the first of our new six-part series. A big part of our love for one another is having ambition for one another - to raise others up in the ways of Jesus.

This was the heart of the apostle Paul that we read of so clearly in 1 Thessalonians 2. #love #raising #discipling

Part 19 - "Jesus and Servanthood"

Part 18 - "Jesus Is Calling"

In this passage of scripture we read Jesus’ last call to the people before he goes to his arrest and crucifixion.

Part 13 - "Jesus Brings Freedom"

In today’s message we once again see Jesus in a lengthy discussion with the crowds, a discussion that gets very heated and ends with the crowd wanting to kill Jesus.
