As Pastor Chris continues our focus 'Love God', he looks at Exodus 33, and how Moses was able to speak with God face to face. 

If you don't have a personal relationship with God, this message will help unpack what it means to be friends with God.

Love God Connect Study Guide: bit.ly/4a0j6NF

Worship is something that can take many different forms, it's not just singing songs in church. In this podcast, Pastor Chris sits down with Mitch, one of our worship leaders and preachers, to unpack what exactly worship is and how it can transform us along the journey.

In the world today, love has been so twisted. But what does it actually mean to love God? Jesus said this was the most important command for believers to obey.

Join us as Pastor Chris launches a new focus 'Love God' that takes a look at what it really means to love God and how that can flow out into everything we do.

There will always be opposing forces trying to take you off the path that God has called you on. But we need to stand firm, and know our authority in Jesus, and take hold of the victory which He has given us.

This is a great reminder on the power of our mindset from our Connect Pastor here at Awaken City - Pastor Hariata!

As we move past the Easter weekend, Pastor Rhiannon took the time to look at what happened after Jesus was resurrected, and how our Faith can at times be like the two men travelling from Jerusalem, walking alongside Jesus, but not recognising Him.

There were many that doubted that Jesus was resurrected, and Chris takes a look at Thomas and how Jesus challenged him.

Easter is a chance for us to remember the sacrifice that Jesus made for us, but also to remember the freedom from darkness we now have through the cross.

Jesus had a choice to take up the cross, bear the weight of all sin for us and make all things new.

This is such a powerful reminder for us that the Jesus we worship made this sacrifice for us.

Do you recognise that you are chosen by God? This understanding can change how you view your calling and how you respond to life. 

Jesus has given us keys to standing firm throughout life in our faith, and these keys can be found all throughout the Word of God. If you feel stuck, dig in for yourself and see what God has for you.

As Pastor Rob continues our focus 'Built to Stand', he unpacks a scripture out of Luke. Being a christian doesn't mean you will not have troubles, doesn't mean all the problems in your life suddenly disappear, however we now have Jesus by our side to walk through these situations with.
