What drives your desire to be great—recognition or purpose?

In this message, Andrew Mayne explores the tension between personal ambition and spiritual calling. Using the story behind the Hardy Boys and the pseudonym Franklin W. Dixon, Andrew draws a compelling parallel to the church: many individuals working under one name, not for personal fame, but for a greater purpose.

Through personal stories and biblical reflection, this message challenges us to examine our motivations and invites us to live for the name above all names—Jesus.

Key Scripture: Philippians 2:5–8

"In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus... he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant..."

What breaks your heart when you look at your city?

In this message, Jason Elsmore challenges us to move beyond comfort and complacency and to engage deeply with the brokenness around us. Drawing from Nehemiah 1, Jason explores how proximity to pain awakens prayer, and how ordinary people—like Nehemiah, a public servant—can shape the future of a city through intercession.

Whether you're in Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Goondiwindi, or watching from anywhere in the world, this message invites you to stand in the gap for your community. Jason reminds us that we have access to a King—Jesus—who hears, responds, and moves when we pray.

Key Themes:

• Awakening the Church across Australia
• The power of proximity to pain
• Interceding for cities with compassion, not judgment
• Standing on God’s covenant promises
• Being positioned by God to pray with purpose

Nehemiah 1:4–11 "Lord, the God of heaven, the great and awesome God... let your ear be attentive and your eyes open to hear the prayer your servant is praying..."

Let’s not get numb to the numbers. Let’s pray for transformation, revival, and healing in our cities.

Are you spiritually asleep? In this message, Jason Elsmore kicks off the Awaken series with a call for the church to rise from spiritual slumber and become fully aware of God's presence, active in prayer, and walk in the light of Christ.

Through personal stories, biblical insights, and three spiritual "alarm clocks," Jason challenges us to wake up to the reality of God's grace, the urgency of prayer, and the promise of revival in our nation. From the mountaintop transfiguration to the quiet whisper on the mountain with Elijah, this sermon reminds us that God is speaking—are we awake enough to hear Him?

Set your spiritual alarms:

• Morning: Pray for awareness of God’s presence.
• Midday: Pray persistently for breakthrough.
• Evening: Reflect, repent, and rest in His grace.

Every day, your thoughts are shaping the direction and quality of your life, whether you realise it or not. In this message, Derek Peters tackles one of the most important and often overlooked parts of your spiritual journey - your thinking.

Using the story of the Prodigal Son, and alongside other parts of scripture, Derek shows how the enemy uses lies to build strongholds in our minds such as false beliefs that hold us back from living as loved, free, and secure sons and daughters of God.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in patterns of shame, fear, or self-doubt, this message is for you. Discover how to recognise the lies, replace them with truth, and begin thinking in a way that aligns with who God says you are. Because when your thinking changes, everything changes.

In a world obsessed with comfort, Jesus calls us to something far greater. In this final message from the Your Kingdom Come series, we’re reminded that the Church doesn’t exist for our convenience, but to reach others with the transforming love of Jesus. On Commitment Sunday, we celebrate what God is doing locally and globally through Gateway Beyond, and we’re invited to step out of our comfort zones to be part of His mission.

You weren’t created for a capped life. You were created to overflow. In this Pentecost Sunday message, Jason Elsmore challenges us to stop settling for “just enough” of God. The same Holy Spirit who empowered the early church is still moving today - and He wants to fill you with boldness, power, and purpose. Just as He reminds us in Acts 2: the Spirit is poured out on all people. That means you.
