In this message, Ps Thomas Hansen unpacks a truth that reframes how we see our past, our failures, and our future: God factors in the X factor.

Drawing from the story of Jonah, Ps Thomas shows how God doesn't just redeem our mess — he factors it in from the beginning. The detours, the disobedience, the broken seasons — none of it surprises God. He already knew, and he already had a plan.

Whether you feel disqualified by your past, overwhelmed by the gap between who you are and who you need to become, or simply wondering if God can still use you — this message is for you.

Ps Thomas speaks on:

• Why patience is not about being good at waiting — it's about trusting the one in charge of the process
• How God accounts for the growth between who you are now and who you need to become
• Why your gift taking you where your character cannot keep you will destroy you
• The story of Jonah and how God used his mess as his message to an entire city
• Why no one is too broken, too lost, or too far gone for God to use
• The difference between dreaming in your own strength and dreaming with God
• How prayer transforms us, not just our circumstances
• What it means to be saved, called, and empowered by grace

In this message, Ps Mark Collard continues the series God, Money, and Me with a practical and faith-filled teaching on the principle of sowing and reaping.

Ps Mark also shares the story behind Equippers Church Surrey's first ever building purchase, bought debt-free in one of the most expensive real estate markets in the UK, and traces it directly back to years of faithful seed-sowing into churches and communities around the world.

Key themes:

• Seed time and harvest as a permanent kingdom law (Genesis 8)
• Why sowing sparingly produces a sparse harvest, and sowing bountifully produces a bountiful one
• Seeds are more than money: words, attitudes, actions, and thoughts all produce a harvest
• The difference between seed and bread, and how to discern what's in your hand
• Moving from need consciousness to seed consciousness
• The three tithes of the Jewish people and what they reveal about financial freedom
• How Equippers Surrey sowed into churches in Rome, Wales, Manila, Wellington, Kolkata, Ghana and beyond, and what that seed produced

In this message, Ps Mark Collard continues a series on financial freedom, unpacking the first and most foundational ingredient: stewardship through tithing.

Drawing from Malachi 3, Proverbs 3, Matthew 23, and the story of Abraham, Ps Mark teaches that tithing is not an obligation or a law principle, it is a covenant principle that runs from Genesis to Revelation, affirmed by Jesus himself.

This is a message for anyone who wants to stop struggling financially and start living under the blessing and protection of God, handled on God's terms, not the world's.

Key themes covered:

The four ingredients to financial freedom: stewardship, sowing/seeding, savings, and spending

Why tithing establishes God's sovereignty over your finances

The difference between paying, giving, and returning the tithe

Why the tithe is gross, first, and belongs to the storehouse (your local church)

The promise of Malachi 3 — open floodgates and a rebuked devourer

Why tithing is not generosity — it is returning what already belongs to God

How God does more with your 90% than you can do with 100%

In this message, Ps Jo Geerling brings a stirring challenge to see beyond the natural and step into supernatural sight.

Ps Jo calls the church to stop looking at circumstances and start looking at what God sees. This is a message about perspective, faith, and the courage to look again when God's promises haven't yet arrived.

If you've been discouraged by what you see in the natural, this message will shift your perspective and stir your faith.

Three areas explored in this message:

Look Up: Getting God's perspective above your circumstances, challenges, and limitations

Look Around: Actively searching for God's goodness and power at work in the world around you

Look Again: Holding on to the promises of God with persistence and tenacity, even when nothing seems to be changing

In this message, Ps Mark Collard unpacks one of the most well-known promises in Scripture, Proverbs 3:5-6, and shows us that God's promise to direct our paths comes with three qualifying criteria we need to put in place first.

Drawing from Proverbs 3, Ps Mark teaches on what it practically looks like to trust God with all your heart, stop leaning on your own understanding, and acknowledge Him in every area of life and why doing these three things is the key to God clearing the obstacles from your path.

Whether you're facing big life decisions, navigating uncertainty, or simply want to walk more closely with God day to day, this is a practical and grounding message for anyone who wants God to lead the way.

Key themes:

Trust is a decision, not a feeling and it grows as we get to know God's character

The difference between being soul-led and spirit-led

Why we need clarity less than we need faith

The danger of making big decisions in isolation and the value of wise counsel

What it really means to acknowledge God — making space for Him at the table

Surrendering the need to figure everything out on your own

Three questions to take away:

Where am I currently relying on my own understanding?

Is there a recent decision I didn't bring before God?

What would it look like to acknowledge God more in my everyday life?

In this message from the series God, Money, and Me, Ps Steve Graham lays the foundation for why Jesus spoke more about money than almost any other topic, and why this conversation is about discipleship, not fundraising.

Drawing from Mark 10 and key passages across Scripture, Ps Steve unpacks why Jesus spent so much time speaking into the area of money and why this is not a fundraising conversation, but a discipleship one. The rich young ruler becomes the lens through which we examine what truly has a hold on our hearts.

You'll be challenged and encouraged as Ps Steve speaks on:
The difference between a discipleship series and a fundraising series
Why Jesus targets money, sex, and power as core heart issues
The rich young ruler and what it looks like when wealth has a hold on your heart
Mammon as a competing spiritual power, not just a financial concept
Idolatry redefined: worshiping what we should use, using what we should worship
The two kingdoms and two spirits that govern how we relate to money
Why the conversion of the wallet is often the last and hardest conversion

Practical stewardship as flowing from a free and surrendered heart
This is a timely word for anyone who wants to be free from the pressure, anxiety, and grip that money can have, and wants to use wealth as a tool under the right kingdom.

In this message, Ps Jeziel Koehler brings a practical and personal word from the book of Nehemiah on how to activate your calling and step into the mission God has placed on your life.

Drawing from Nehemiah Chapter 1, Ps Jeziel walks through the moment Nehemiah was activated in his calling, showing how vision, tension, and people are the three keys to stepping into what God has called you to do.

Ps Jeziel covers three practical keys to activating your calling:
Get a Vision: Vision in the Kingdom of God comes through the Word of God and the presence of the Holy Spirit. You only build what you can see.

Embrace the Tension: When you carry a vision, you will feel the gap between what God has promised and what currently exists. That tension is not a sign to stop, it is a call to action.

Include People: God never gives us a vision to accomplish alone. Every position of influence is an invitation to serve and mobilise others for His glory.

You will be encouraged as Ps Jeziel speaks on:
How Nehemiah's vision was not emotional but theological, rooted in the Word of God
Why tension and grief over a broken picture is a sign of genuine calling
The story of Joseph and how God's positioning is always about serving others
Living with a sense of urgency in response to the news of the Gospel
The kingdom principle: Dream big, start small, build together

In this message, Ps Mark Collard opens a brand new series called God, Money and Me, a series designed to upgrade the way we think about money and help us walk in genuine financial freedom.

This message challenges the idea that breakthrough is a principled life. When we learn and live by God's principles with money, freedom follows.

If you have ever felt the pressure of debt, the fear of not having enough, or the tension of money leading your decisions instead of God, this message is for you.

Key themes covered:
A breakthrough life is a principled life and how God's principles lead to lasting financial freedom
Why Jesus talked about money so much and the two reasons behind it
Money builds but money can also destroy and how to stop money dominating you
When money leads, it leads you away from God and practical signs to watch for
Money follows vision, not the other way around. Stop waiting for the money, pursue the vision
Money releases or controls and how God wants to take you from bondage to abundance

In this message, Ps Steve Graham unpacks a transformative truth: God's grace doesn't just flow to you, it flows through you.

Building on the morning's teaching about standing under the downpour of God's grace, Ps Steve shifts the focus to how believers carry and channel that grace into the world around them. Drawing from 1 Peter 4:10 and Paul's writings, he teaches that every Christian is entrusted with a specific dimension of God's grace to steward faithfully.

This is a message for anyone asking, "What is my calling?" or "How do I serve God effectively?" You'll discover that you're not just a recipient of blessing—you're a priest who brings blessing, a river of life that brings transformation wherever you go.

Key moments and themes:
Grace to you vs Grace through you: understanding the difference
Every believer carries a gift and a function in the body of Christ
Faithful stewardship: discovering and developing your grace zone
Paul's three gift passages: Romans 12, Ephesians 4, 1 Corinthians 12
How to identify your grace gift (your "talent")
You crucify your flesh, but you steward your gifts
The river of life (Ezekiel 47): where grace flows, everything lives
Being a priest who carries the blessing into your world

Whether you're in business, healthcare, education, hospitality, or at home, God has graced you for mission. This message will help you identify your lane, steward it well, and see God's power flow through you to bring life and peace to others.

Grace protects us like a shield
Grace gives us success in what God has called us to do
