Who is the Holy Spirit? What is his mission?

"The Holy Spirit is the person of the trinity through whom the hidden life of God himself births, sustains and renews all life. The person through whom the life of God comes to us. In doing so, he applies the work of the Father and the Son and all its benefits to us." - Mike Paget

The Enchanted Battlefield

Series: This Enchanted World

This sermon was preached by The Rev. Michael Paget at St Barnabas Anglican Church Broadway on Sunday 23rd August 2026.

In this sermon, Mike explores what we know from Scripture about the devil, angels, fallen angels, demons, ghosts, dragons, snakes and much more. Ultimately, Mike brings us to where Scripture leads us - to Jesus, the ultimate snake crusher.

This Enchanted Gathering

Series: This Enchanted World

Bible Readings: Ephesians 2:19-22; Acts 2:42-47

This sermon was preached by The Rev. Rhys Duggan at St Barnabas Anglican Church Broadway on Sunday 16th August 2026.

What is miraculous about an ordinary Sunday gathering? What happens when Gods people meet together? The Church is a people in whom God dwells. Rhys helps us to see how having an individual and consumeristic lens impacts how we experience Church, helping us to see that the Church is not a product to be consumed, it a story about Jesus creating a new community, his family. What is miraculous about a Sunday gathering? That Jesus has reconciled us to God and too each other, bringing peace. Lets not let the familiar disguise that majestic.

Listen to this sermon and be challenged to think differently when you attend Church next week and thereafter. Will you ask "Is this Church right for me?" or will you see the miraculous and ask "What is God doing among us?"

The Enchanting Word

Series: This Enchanted World

Bible passages: Ezekiel 37:1-14, John 1:1-14

This sermon was preached by The Rev. Michael Paget at St Barnabas Anglican Church Broadway on Sunday 9th August 2026.

In this sermon, Mike explores the enchanting reality of the Word of God, the bible. Mike helps us to see with refreshed vision the reality of the words we read in the bible are not normal words, but life-giving, powerful words from our living God. In a world that is drowning in endless amounts of empty words and AI-slop, what we see in the Bible is God's Word for us, his life-breathing words, the true hope for all humanity. The bible we hold in our hands is no ordinary book.

"Anytime that we open a bible we should be in the brace position, because where the Word of God is, there is His life-giving breath" - Mike Paget

This Enchanted World

This sermon was preached by The Rev. Michael Paget at St Barnabas Anglican Church Broadway on Sunday 2nd August 2026.

Inhale... exhale... that breath is a gift from God.

In this sermon Mike preached about the enduring enchantment of this world. This world doesn't need re-enchanting; rather, we need to be undisenchanted so that we can see creation more clearly for what it truly is. We need to learn to see through scriptural eyes how God's goodness overflows through all of creation - through the trees, the stars, and in the people we see.

This week we started a new sermon series titled "This Enchanted World" where we will be exploring the spiritual things, that the secular flattening of our vision has made us blind to in this world. The goal of this series is not to re-enchant the world, but to open our lives to the reality that the world is and always has been enchanted.

The Book of Hosea

This sermon was preached by Michael Paget at St Barnabas Anglican Church Broadway on Sunday 19th June 2026.

Hosea is a difficult and confronting book. It shows us the seriousness of our unfaithfulness to God, and yet, we find a God who keeps pursuing his people.

Michael Paget takes us through Hosea and asks us to consider: What if our sin isn't simply breaking rules, but turning away from the God who loves us? And what does it mean that, despite our unfaithfulness, God continues to pursue us and bring us home?
