At the start of our 2 Samuel series, Pastor Pete introduces the transition from Saul’s downfall to David’s rise as part of God’s unfolding plan. He highlights three themes: God brings people down in His timing, people often cling to what they know is no longer right, and God raises people up in His perfect timing – ultimately pointing to Jesus as the true King.

The early church grew rapidly, but not easily. They faced pressure from the culture around them, the pull of their own sinful nature, and the reality of persecution. Some compromised, but many endured, holding fast to Christ, even at great cost. Jesus’ words in Revelation call the church to stay faithful, anchoring them in the reality that history is moving toward Him. We live with that same hope - Christ will return, all things will be made new and until then, we pray, Come, Lord Jesus.

In this message, Pastor Pete outlines the birth of the Church at Pentecost after the ascension of Jesus. He traces its journey through Acts and the epistles, before bringing it into the present day by reflecting on its current global state.

This Easter, Pastor Pete shares the story of the Ethiopian eunuch, who encounters God in the wilderness, when Philip explains Isaiah 53 and the good news of Jesus to him. Pastor Pete concludes by reflecting on how the eunuch went on his way rejoicing – a joy that can be equally ours when we encounter God.

In this message, we explore Jesus, not only as the King of Israel but also as the King of the world, thereby fulfilling God’s promise through His life, death, and resurrection.

Discover what His Kingdom is like - a Kingdom of forgiveness, healing, restoration, and new life - and what it means to live under His reign.

Pastor Pete’s message explores the 400 years between the Old and New Testaments as a time of apparent silence, yet one in which God was actively working behind the scenes in fulfilment of prophecy. He then examines the hidden years of Jesus’ early life, showing God’s preparation quietly unfolding. Finally, he highlights Jesus’ public revelation at His baptism and the beginning of His ministry, revealing God’s plan to act in history and in our lives.

As Israel’s monarchy rose and fell, God raised up prophets to speak His truth and reveal His heart to the nation. Through warning, heartbreak, exile, and eventual return, their message kept alive a powerful hope: that God would one day send a deliverer to rescue His people.

In this message, Pastor Peter explores how Israel’s rise and fall reveal the unseen spiritual battles that often shape everyday life. Israel’s struggles with idolatry and compromise were not merely political or cultural—they were deeply spiritual, often influenced by demonic forces. Through Israel’s story, we are invited to recognise our own daily battles with fear, temptation, and spiritual warfare, and to see how God calls His people to remain faithful in the midst of it all.

What do we do when God brings us to the edge of His promise, but fear holds us back? Pastor Pete reflects on the twelve spies, contrasting the fearful report of ten with the faith of two, and challenges us to inherit God’s blessings as individuals and as a church.

In the fourth message of the God story series, Pastor Pete explores Israel’s deliverance from slavery, their journey through the wilderness, the giving of the Law; in effect, the birth of a nation. He highlights how God formed Israel into a chosen people through redemption and covenant. The message connects this story to the Church today, as a chosen people and Jesus as our Passover Lamb.
