September 14, 2026 A vision for bread: a Worshipful church.
Worship isn't just the opening act for a sermon. At bread, our vision is to
be people who know how to worship God in Spirit and in Truth, as Jesus
asks.
This sermon looks at how worship through our music continues the ancient
tradition of accessing the presence of God through singing, and how there
is no greater place to be than in the presence of the King of Glory.

September 08, 2026 A vision for bread: a Discipling church.
Throughout the New Testament, the early disciples, despite their vast
differences and in spite of the likely tensions and challenges, together,
were taught and they taught each other. They listened and shared. They
observed and they actively participated. They heard and they questioned…All
of this learning was centered around the person of Jesus.
In the midst of all the noise and busy-ness of life today, a call to
apprenticeship to Jesus invites us to prioritize His voice above all the
other competing noise, to sit at His feet, to dwell in His presence, and
teach us and show us and invite us to explore what it is to center
ourselves and our lives around Him. We do this not as a means of earning
our salvation - Jesus has already covered that cost for us as an undeserved
gift, without condition - but instead our discipleship is an act of worship
and gratitude for all Jesus has done, all he is doing, and all he will do
for us, in us, and through us. This is why we commit to discipleship to
Jesus here at Bread.

September 02, 2026 A vision for bread: an Empowered church.
Jesus doesn't leave us with marching orders and then tell us we’re on our
own. Rather, Jesus empowers his church with all the power of heaven by the
gift of his Holy Spirit. We’re neither left alone, nor weak.
So, the supreme need for every Christian individual and every Christian
church is to be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit. We all need the
gifts of the Holy Spirit, the experience of the Holy Spirit, and the
inclusion of the Holy Spirit for the sake of each individual Christian
walk, and for the sake of our collective impact in the world.

August 27, 2026 A vision for bread: a Good News church.
The Bible describes Jesus as good news. His church, therefore, must be
somewhere where people hear good news - good news that in Jesus, God can be
known, He is a friend who understands, He offers a way out of cycles of
destructive behavior, He goes before us in everything, He champions us like
an older brother, and he delivers us from all fear.
This is good news. And we aspire to be a good news church.

August 17, 2026 A vision for bread: a Now and Not Yet church.
John 13–17
Jesus announced - and demonstrated - that the Kingdom of God had come. And
yet, on the night before his death, Jesus prepared his disciples for a
reality they had not expected: the Kingdom had come, but it had not yet
come in its fullness. It is a tension we still live in 2000 years later.
At bread, we want to live faithfully in the overlap: praying boldly and
expecting the supernatural power of the Kingdom to break into the present,
while refusing to deny the very real suffering, disappointment and loss of
the world we still inhabit.
So, how do we live with expectation and disappointment, miracles and
unanswered prayers, joy and grief? The heart of Jesus’ Farewell Discourse
in John “Remain in me.” Correct theology matters, but theology alone cannot
hold us. We make our home in Jesus, as he makes his home in us — and from
that abiding place come the love, joy, peace and power we need to live as
people of the Now and the Not Yet.
NB - serendipitously, the Lectio 365 app is working through the Remain in
me verses in John 15 this week. Follow along there too!

August 10, 2026 A vision for bread: a Biblical church.
Acts 6:11-13 & Acts 7
From the beginning, Jesus' Church has been rooted in the Scriptures. This
is seen no more clearly than in Stephen's biblical defense of the fledging
Christian community in Acts 7.
At bread, we aspire to be a Biblical church. This means, amongst other
things, never reducing God to a particular geographical place; never
reducing him to a man-made cause; never shirking the reality of our human
sin and weakness; and always having our eyes fixed on Jesus. To be a
Biblical church is not just about teaching and interpreting the Bible well,
it's about having it written on our hearts - so that we, like Stephen,
might look just like the Jesus whom the Scriptures reveal.

August 03, 2026 Songs of the Kingdom: Psalm 2.
Psalm 2
This prophetic Psalm is one of the richest, Messianic Psalms written,
giving us an understanding of the absolute authority of Israel’s coming
Messiah. Psalm 2 points us to the future of the Messiah’s Kingship and
Kingdom, and the ultimate subjugation of Christ’s enemies and the kings of
this world, where the final reality is laid out: all will either submit to
Christ the King’s eternal reign, or be destroyed.
The timeline presented in Psalm 2 not only points us to partial fulfillment
in Acts 4, but also contains within it a key verse, that presents a
powerful foundational truth, positioning and enabling His church to have
the correct heart posture and spiritual response in this current era of the
Holy Spirit; both toward those who would oppose Christ’s authority, and to
those who are lost and need to know Him.

July 27, 2026 Songs of the Kingdom: Psalm 51.
⁠Psalm 51⁠
Psalm 51 gives us incredible insight into how David viewed God even when he
had gravely sinned. It’s a study in the nature of our Heavenly Father.
David didn’t allow shame to make him cower before God. He didn’t see Him as
a hard taskmaster to be feared, but rather as his safe place to run ‘to;
not run ‘from.’
David learned throughout his life that being in God’s presence was the most
precious thing he could ever experience. So, this Psalm isn’t self
abasement from David, but instead, intense liberating repentance based on
his absolute knowledge that just like us in our New Covenant reality, in
times of greatest sin, we can come fearlessly, boldly, and confidently,
before the throne of grace and receive God’s unfathomable mercy and
forgiveness.

July 20, 2026 Songs of the Kingdom: Psalm 46.
Psalm 46
Psalm 46 reminds us that God is not only supreme and powerful, but also
eternally merciful.
By painting the picture of a God who rules over all creation, as well as
the warring nations, the Psalmist reminds us of His love and mercy towards
His people. That even in the midst of total chaos, our God invites us to be
still and know that He is God.

July 13, 2026 Songs of the Kingdom: Psalm 139
Psalm 139
To be human is to be made for intimacy - with other people vitally, but
also with God primarily. In Psalm 139 we see how nothing is hidden from
God. He knows us intimately.
This can lead us to do two things - run away from Him; or run towards Him.
We run away because we're afraid - usually of rejection, abandonment, or
humiliation. But David understands that that is not what awaits us, nor is
running away anything but futile. No one can get away from God's presence.
Instead, He runs towards God's love - His love is intimately concerned with
us, it is fiercely passionate for us, and it leads us into life in all its
fullness. We can stop hiding.
