The cross is foolishness to the world but is the power of God to those who believe. Speaking from 1 Corinthians 1:18-2:5, Rob shares how the message of the cross is foundational and irreplaceable if we are to truly be the church Jesus established us to be.

1 Corinthians 1:10-17 

Jesus' desire for His church is that it is united. Unity and perfect peace in the church flows from knowing the union we have with Christ and the perfect peace we have with the Father through Him.

1 Corinthians 1:1-9

The Lord wants for us to truly be all that he intends the church of Jesus Christ to be as we find ourselves immersed in 21st century society and western culture and all the worldviews, values, beliefs, norms and pressures that come with it. Rob preaches about what it truly means to be the church of Jesus in this world.

Preaching from 2 Corinthians 4:1-6, Geff shares with us the Gospel of Jesus Christ - both what it is and what it is not - motivating the church to share this Gospel.

Jesus + _______ is enough. How would you fill in the blank? Whatever you would add to the equation, know that it is only ever Jesus alone who could be enough - He is enough for salvation, He is enough in your everyday life, He is enough when you are not. Jesus is enough.

As we gear up for our upcoming Forgiven and Free Gospel Outreach Night, Mark Saunders from Saved and Sent Ministries shares a powerful message for the church about stepping out in the power of God to reach a lost world with the Gospel.

To be a faithful church means being true to the Scriptures and walking in step with the Spirit. Rob preaches from 2 Timothy 1:3-10 about the gifts of the Holy Spirit, encouraging the church to faithfully feed the flames of the gifts that God has given them rather than being afraid and neglecting the gifts of the Spirit. We do all this for the glory of Jesus Christ and the building up of His church!

As Christians, we all will carry burdens. Instead of hiding those burdens away from one another to keep up appearances or to simply not burden others, we are called to be humble enough to share our burdens and allow them to be carried as well as be ready to love one another like Christ loves us and be willing to self-sacrificially carry one another's burdens.

Passage: Galatians 6:1-5, 9-10

Speaking from Numbers 22, Russ challenges us as to whether our obedience to Christ is based on the personal benefits or whether it is simply grounded in who Jesus is as our Lord and Saviour.

What can give us a thrill of hope this Christmas?
