Family Matters: Healthy Fear
02/03/2025 Duración: 34minLet's reflect on what truly drives us forward this weekend. 1 John 4:18 reminds us, "There is no fear in love.

Family Matters: Generational Sin
09/02/2025 Duración: 33minIn a society where traditional values meet modern challenges, it's crucial to reflect on our generational legacies. The verse from 2 Corinthians 10:5 reminds us: "We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ."

Family Matters: Giving as Worship
26/01/2025 Duración: 35minIn lives filled with challenges, the essence of family and faith shines brighter than ever. As we reflect on the story of Abraham, we learn of how his powerful act of faith teaches us that true worship is not just about songs and prayers but also about our willingness to give back to God what is most precious to us.

Surprised By: Peace
15/12/2024 Duración: 28minIn a world filled with chaos and uncertainty, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed; yet, amidst the noise, there’s a profound peace that transcends all understanding. As we navigate through the busyness of this year-end season, let’s remember the words of John 14:27: “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” This promise reminds us that true peace is not found in our circumstances but in a deeper connection.

Surprised By: Hope
01/12/2024 Duración: 34minAs we continue to chase for greater things, it’s easy to overlook the small beginnings that hold immense potential. Just like the plumb line in Zerubbabel’s hand, every little step we take matters. As we navigate through challenges and uncertainties, let us remember the words from Zechariah 4:10: “Do not despise these small beginnings, for the LORD rejoices to see the work begin.” Each moment of hope, each act of kindness, and every dream nurtured is a foundation for something greater.

For the Sake of the World: Beauty
17/11/2024 Duración: 35minLiving in a world that often prioritises outward appearances, it is important for us to remember that the true essence of beauty lies within.
