A new mini-series in John 19, as we look at the various people who stood at the foot of the cross. What was their reason for being there? What was their understanding of Jesus? What was their spiritual attitudes? Did his death make an impact on their lives? Join us to see what we can learn from them.

John 19:1-16, Conforming is not an Option

Stuart — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 23:00:47 +0000

Pilate, although in a position of power and authority to release Jesus, chose instead to compromise and conform to the Jewish Leaders to have Jesus killed. Tonight we will see how external pressures to conform can also compromise the Christian’s life and how instead we should be confident in Jesus and his transforming power in our lives

Stuart — Fri, 13 Aug 2010 21:23:18 +0000

Where can we find the truth? TV? Newpapers? Wikipedia? Sadly many people who call themselves Christians no longer believe that the Bible is totally accurate in the principles it teaches. In this sermon Pastor Stuart examines where to find and how we should handle the truth.

John 17:20-27, Unity in Diversity

Stuart — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 12:35:28 +0000

Do we confuse church unity with uniformity? Do we mistake diversity as division? In our final study in John 17, Pastor Stuart examines what Jesus has to say are the benefits of church unity and why he uses diverity to accomplish that plan.

John 17:6-19, Passing the Baton

Stuart — Sat, 10 Jul 2010 21:29:17 +0000

Jesus was leaving the earth and leaving the building of the church to some fishermen and tax-collectors, there was no backup plan. Pastor Stuart takes us through the prayer that Jesus says for his disciples as he passes the baton to them to spread the gospel, a prayer for them that the father may give them the things they need to be successful.

Who is the command of the Great Commission for? The Apostles? Missionaries? Pastors and Evangelists? No the command to ‘Go make disciples’ is a call for all Christians to obey. This message gives some practical advise for the hesitant and encouragement to those on the mission.

John 16:16-33, Abundant Joy

Stuart — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 14:13:46 +0000

Do you loose your joy when your new car is scratched, or if you are threatened with redundancy or have problems in a relationship, then your joy is focused on the wrong thing. In this sermon we see how abundant joy does not just come after our troubles but the very thing causing the problem can become the source of our joy.

John 16:1-15, The Winning Strategy

Stuart — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 13:56:45 +0000

If you have ever played chess you will realise that often a good player will give up a key piece to gain an advantage, even when they look like they are losing they have a winning strategy which gets them checkmate in a few moves. Jesus shows his disciples that although others looked on His death as a loss, we see from this sermon that it was part of God’s Winning Strategy as the Work of the Holy Spirit is revealed.
