Title: Lost and Found Is Heaven’s Sound Speaker: Ps Paul Mulroney Location: C3 Stand

In this message, Ps Paul Mulroney explores the heart of God toward those who are lost, drawing from Luke 15 and the parables of the lost sheep and the lost coin. Through humour, personal stories, and biblical insight, Paul shows how deeply God values every person—those who wander off in “stupidity,” those who don’t realise they’re lost, and those whom society has pushed to the margins.

From childhood memories of losing his class while dressed as a clown, to stories of ministry in country churches and community outreach in Langford, Paul paints a picture of a God who actively seeks out His people with relentless love. Heaven rejoices when even one person is found—and we’re invited to share that same heart.

This sermon challenges us to:

  • See ourselves as valued and sought-after by God
  • Reject the Pharisee mindset and embrace compassion
  • Notice the people around us whom God is drawing
  • Celebrate every life transformed by the gospel
  • Join the Good Shepherd in His mission to find the lost

Whether you feel close to God or far away, this message is a reminder: You are valuable. You are worth seeking. God is pursuing you with joy.

Key Scripture: Luke 15:1–10 (NLT) Big idea: Lost and found is heaven’s sound.
