This sermon by Jaye Mansbridge was recorded at our first Encounter Sunday Service for 2026, with our growing church-plant in Coffs Harbour.

In this message, Jaye takes to the pulpit for the first time and leads us back to the account in Genesis 26 of Isaac re-digging his father's wells. As it turns out, wells feature all through Scripture as places of Provision, Community, Encounter, and Divine Blessing!

This sermon was recorded at our Encounter Sunday Service in the lead up to Christmas.

In this message, we walk verse-by-verse through the opening of Matthew's Gospel, from Jesus' genealogy to the gifts He received from the Magi, and uncover the glorious reality that Christ is King, Priest and Prophet. Jesus, born into a world of dysfunction, is eternally worthy, holy, and able!

This episode of our Church-Planting Podcast features audio from our third 'Encounter Service' held Sunday 30 November.

We begin this message in Genesis 28, where Jacob (aka Israel) has his first encounter with God at Bethel, the place of the anointed stones. From there, we examine some of the admirable attributes of Israel's sons and consider how God today is fathering us to become a Praising People (Judah); a Priestly People (Levi); and a Perceptive People (Issachar).

This episode of our Church-Planting Podcast features audio from our second 'Encounter Service' held Sunday 16 November.

In this message, we take a brief look at the account of Isaac in Genesis 26, where he restored the wells of his father, Abraham. We then head to Acts 15 and explore how God, in the New Covenant era, is restoring what Amos referred to as "David's Fallen Tent", suggesting five possible implications of what this promised restoration includes.
