Continuing our What If? series, Joel looks at Jesus’ parable of the Good Samaritan and asks a simple but challenging question: how many people do we see every day but never really notice?

Jesus challenges us to look beyond our own comfort and routines, to become people who see, care, and move towards those God places in front of us. What if following Jesus means becoming the kind of people who don’t just see a need, but stop and do something about it?

“Go and do likewise.” — Luke 10:37

In the second message of our Give, Serve, Care 2026 campaign, Matt looks at Jesus washing His disciples’ feet and what it means to follow His example of humble, selfless service.

The King knelt first. How might we follow His example and serve the people around us?

What if God could make a difference through you?

In this opening message of our Give, Serve, Care 2026 campaign, Joel explores Jesus’ words about being the salt of the earth and the light of the world. We may feel too ordinary or insignificant to make a difference, but Jesus calls each of us to bring His love, hope and goodness into the places He has already put us.

As we reach the end of Acts of the Apostles, Joel looks at Acts 28:16–31 and the surprising way Luke brings the story to a close.

Paul is under house arrest, yet the Gospel continues to spread “unhindered.” The story doesn't really end — it continues through ordinary people empowered by the Holy Spirit.

A final challenge: Will we allow God to use our ordinary lives, wherever He has placed us, so that nothing hinders the Gospel from reaching others?

What do we do when life feels like a storm? 

In Acts 27, Paul finds himself caught in a violent storm on his journey to Rome. From this dramatic account, Matt explores three ways we can respond when the storms of life come — trusting that God is still at work, holding onto His Word, and becoming a source of hope to those around us.

In Acts 19:8–20, we see Paul faithfully making Jesus known in the spiritually charged city of Ephesus. As the Gospel takes root, we discover three important lessons for our own mission: patience in reaching others, confidence in the authority of Jesus, and a commitment to seeing lives transformed.

The name of Jesus is greater than every competing power, and His Gospel continues to change lives.

In a world filled with endless information, opinions, and ideas, people are still searching for truth, purpose, and hope. In Acts 17, Paul enters Athens — a city full of thinkers and seekers — and shows us what it looks like to share the Gospel with compassion, wisdom, and courage. 

In this message, Joel explores how Paul’s love for people led him to listen, engage, go into the places where people were, and ultimately point them to Jesus.

When life doesn’t go according to plan, what do we truly depend on? In Acts 16, Paul and Silas find themselves beaten, imprisoned and chained — yet in the darkness, they discover a joy and freedom that cannot be taken away. As they worship in the middle of their suffering, God moves in power. But the greatest miracle isn’t the prison doors opening; it’s a heart being transformed as the jailer asks, “What must I do to be saved?”

This passage challenges us to consider what our lives are really built on. When everything around us shakes, only Jesus can be the foundation that holds.

In Acts 15, the early church faced a defining crossroads: would they make it difficult for outsiders to belong, or would they embrace what God was doing?

This week we discover that the Gospel is not “Jesus plus” — Jesus is enough. A message that challenges us to receive grace, remember our own story, and become a church that removes barriers between people and their Saviour.
