What does it look like when God chooses a leader? What qualities stand out? This week we're reminded that God's process, and the values He selects for, look vastly different from the world's. From 1 Samuel 16:1-13.

In the days before the kings of Israel, Naomi and Ruth faced a hardship not unusual for women in ancient times. This week, special guest Theo Reynolds explains how the story of their redemption, while powerful on its own, points the way to God's greater redemption through Jesus.

The bible is filled with stories of flawed people, especially those in the book of Judges. But it also recounts how over and over God redeemed those who earnestly sought Him in spite of their flaws, and pointing the way to God's perfect redemption in Jesus. This week, Sinethemba focuses on Gideon and his reaction to an angel of God calling him to lead Israel.

This week we celebrate and praise God for the Lundie family's journey with our community, as they venture in pursuit of God's call in their lives.

This week, Richard speaks about the impossible challenges we face in our lives, and the promise God gives us that when we serve in obedience He will do great things through us. From Joshua 6:1-21

This week, we turn to Moses on the cusp of the promised land.

Despite witnessing the miracles of God first-hand, many in Israel were ready to give up after years of wandering in the desert. For us today, we might have some sympathy! But faith is trusting that the past works of God are indicators of His promises for the future, even if the present feels like a desert. This week, Andre leads us through Numbers 13 as Israel stands on the cusp of the promised land.

This week, Stefan shows that Leviticus is more relevant than you might think. Its long lists of rules and rituals actually reveal God's deep desire for relationship with His people.
