Everyone, except David, was discouraged by and terrified of an arrogant and abusive giant coming against them. Their faith was shaken, and they were paralysed by fear. David however was full of faith in the Lord Almighty, which gave him the courage to face the giant, fight the giant and ultimately to defeat the giant. We all face some giants that shout at us, shake our faith and paralyse us with fear. We don’t find courage to face our giant by asking, “what am I capable of”, but rather “what is God capable of and what is He saying in this situation?”     

(1 Samuel 17:45-46) David said to the Philistine, “You come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the Lord Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. 46 This day the Lord will deliver you into my hands,

Despite being overlooked by his own family, David's heart for God led him to become a chosen leader. Jason Elsmore reminds us that God doesn't judge by outward appearances, and He has a purpose for each of us. If you hunger to serve Him, surrender and let His Spirit lead you in your sphere of influence.

How are you passing on the wisdom of the good life to the next generation? God’s vision for His family is that it is multiethnic, multicultural, and multigenerational. God doesn’t like when we divide down generational lines. In fact, He sees only one generation at a time – His people, alive and serving, in this moment!

Jesus had a tribe of people that he journeyed life with, so what does it mean for you to 'find your tribe' ? Join Brad Case in this as he uncovers the power of authentic community and opens a conversation about the significance of cultivating relationships at every level.

Welcome to our Finding the Good Life series. Harvard's 75-year study found that the key to a good life is relationships, mirroring Jesus' teaching on loving God and people. Family blessings begin when we follow God's wisdom. 

Whether your family table is messy with kids, teenagers, or missing loved ones, God wants to bless it. Just like our ongoing renovations at home, families need transformation and wisdom from God. Blessings come as we bear with each other, forgive, and love extravagantly. Embrace God's wisdom, submit to His will, and ask for His favour to see blessings flow into your family. God loves to bless your family, and there's hope for a better future.

To love and to be loved is core to our flourishing as humans. For most, this finds expression in the context of marriage – the most intimate relationship two humans can experience. Having a happy and healthy marriage is certainly part of the good life. Jesus surprises us with the revelation that the key to a great marriage is putting Him before your spouse. To live the good life, and to live it forever, He must be our first ‘plus one.’

This series called Finding the Good Life will help you in your relationships to those who you live, work and laugh with. As we know, living the good life is up to us and our investment in relationships with the people around us.  If those relationships are strained or broken, it doesn’t have to stay that way; if you’re lonely, it doesn’t have to stay that way; if your family is a mess, it doesn’t have to stay that way.

In this message, Elena Ciobo speaks about the transformative power of God's love in our lives. She reminds us of the importance of facing our fears and reaching out to those who may have hurt us, just as Jonah did in the Bible. Through faith and trust in God, we can experience a revival in our own hearts and relationships. If you've been struggling with forgiveness or letting go of past hurts, this message is for you. Elena Ciobo brings a powerful revelation on how God calls us to confront the Ninevites in our lives—the people who have offended us, hurt us, or simply those we find it challenging to trust.

In this message Derek dives into the story of the fall of Jericho in Joshua 6 and the shout of victory to the Lord that brought the walls down. What is the breakthrough that are you believing God can do? What is the shout of victory you can claim because the Lord is with you? We pray you would know the victory of Jesus over sin and death today.

In this message inspired from Ezekiel 47, Jason Elsmore encourages us to step out of the shallows and swim in the deep waters of the Spirit. Have you been thirsting for other things that don't satisfy? Have you lost your joy? Have you been dry? Our prayer for you today is that there would be an outpouring of God’s Spirit over your life and over the nations.
