11.01.2026 (Classic) - Exile and Return

Reproducing the full life of Jesus by discipling one another in missional congregations where everyone knows your name.

At PBC our longing is that people encounter the Lord Himself. 
We regularly pray that someone who joins us will be drawn to some inescapable conclusions:

“God is really among you!”

“Look how you love one another!”

And that after ministry their sense would be that “God did that!” This leaves us dependent upon God because ultimately it is about whether He does this or not.

We are passionate about the “finished product”, which ironically is something that will never be finished in this life. That “product” is not a big congregation or a new building or great services or a profile in the community. The “product” is ultimately personal and concerns who and what we are becoming. We believe that we are on this earth to discover, live out and pass on what it means to be whole-hearted followers of Jesus.

Sunday services are:
CLASSIC - 9am (WhatsApp)
EXPLORE - 9am (Pinehurst Primary)
EVENING - 4.30pm (Various)
