What could happen if our faith stretched beyond our own lives?

In week two of Hunger Nights, C3 Nights turned its focus toward the nation and the nations the world and for the night, called the church to believe for an open heaven over New Zealand, pray for those serving on the frontlines, and partner with what God is doing around the world.

Listen to Ps Alan Hood as he gives a practical call to listen for God’s direction.

Through Samuel’s story, everyday examples, simple promptings and the image of the Holy Spirit as a GPS, this message reminds us that fruitfulness is not complicated: hear God, discern wisely, take the next step, and trust Him with the result.

This week, our Fruitful series continues as Ps Elena Hood gives four reasons why we need to pray.

With a call back to the secret place and the engine room of corporate prayer, this message invites us to rebuild conviction, make time for God, and become people of prayer again.

Opening this first week of Hunger Nights, Sam Edmeades calls C3 Nights to stir fresh faith before Increase Conference.

Through the story of blind Bartimaeus, this message invites us to cry out again, persist when other voices try to silence us, and lay down the “cloaks” of fear, disappointment, control or comfort that hold faith back.

Jesus still asks, “What do you want me to do for you?”

This week, Wayne Hardman speaks about the life-giving presence of God - Heaven On Earth.

Drawing from Ezekiel's vision of water flowing from the temple and Jesus' encounter with the Samaritan Woman, Wayne gives us something to consider: Are we ankle-deep, knee-deep, waist-deep or fully swimming in the things of God?

This is a call to be all in, carrying living water into our homes, workplaces, neighbourhoods and community.

Are we planted or are we just visiting?

Drawing from his own story of decades in church, the picture of a jacaranda seed, and the language of Scripture, Victor Haupt calls us to be rooted in the house of God. This message reminds us that planted people grow, withstand storms, affect those around them, and bear fruit in season.

Even if the process has felt slow — or disrupted — God can still bring life, growth and fruit!

It's the week before Hunger Nights begins, and tonight Abby calls C3 Nights to prepare the way for Jesus by examining the life of John the Baptist.

This message invites us to live as forerunners: people who know they are called, embrace repentance, point all honour back to Jesus, and trust God even when it's hard. Let's make room for Jesus and prepare our hearts for whatever He wants to do.

It’s always better back in Dad’s house!

Preaching from Luke 15, Dave Connett reframes the story of the prodigal son by showing that both brothers were lost: one ran from the father, while the other stayed but lived with a servant mindset.

With humour, urgency and a strong evangelistic call, this message reminds us that we cannot earn our way into the Father’s love — and that those already in the house are called to help others come home.

Fruitfulness begins with hearing and obeying.

Today C3 City Church begins a new series - Fruitful, and Ps Alan reminds us that God’s Kingdom advances through ordinary believers listening to the voice of the Holy Spirit and acting on what He says.

From Samuel learning to recognise God’s voice to simple everyday promptings, this message calls us to read the Word, discern carefully, obey courageously, and trust God with the fruit.

Fasting is not about proving discipline or trying to earn God’s attention.

As C3 Nights prepares for Hunger Nights and the lead-up to Increase Conference, Sam Edmeades teaches on fasting as voluntary weakness that reveals our dependence on God.

Looking at Jesus in the wilderness and Esther before the king, this message invites us to create space, surrender control, reshape our appetites, and turn our hunger into prayer.
