“The mystery of human existence lies not in just staying alive, but in finding something to live for.” ?Fyodor Dostoyevsky

"There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up." - John Holmes

"It is not our purpose to become each other; it is to recognise each other, to learn to see the other and honour him for what he is."

- Hermann Hesse

We often value others based on what we feel others value in us. If honour is measured by the value placed on us, which value do we use to decide who is worthy of our honour?

Listen as Pastor Nick Barber explains why choosing to honour people is more than just responding to their social, financial, or worldly value.

"You can always give without loving, but you can never love without giving."

- Amy Carmichael

Love is more than an emotion. It is a choice.

It is a call to acceptance, action, and affection. What do you understand love to be? Could it mean more?

"Being a mother is an attitude, not a biological relation."

- Robert A Heinlein

Do you truly understand what it is to be a mother? What value do we place on ourselves as mothers, or on the mothers in our lives?

Listen as Deb Glassford shares with us the true design for motherhood, and why we are all called to celebrate motherhood, both in our own lives, and the lives of the ones we love.

“Worship has been misunderstood as something that arises from a feeling which ‘comes upon you,’ but it is vital that we understand that it is rooted in a conscious act of the will, to serve and obey the Lord Jesus Christ.”
- Graham Kendrick

What is worship to you? Is it an expression of an emotional state? Or is it a statement of faith and gratitude for our God?

Listen as Pastor Nick Barber shares why worship is more than just an emotional response.

Will you choose to worship, no matter the situation?

“The bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead is the crowning proof of Christianity. If the resurrection did not take place, then Christianity is a false religion. If it did take place, then Christ is God and the Christian faith is absolute truth.”

- Henry M. Morris

What will you believe?

Listen as Pastor Nick Barber shares why the resurrection is not only the cornerstone of our faith, but also the hope of a broken, dying world.

"The cross was two pieces of dead wood; and a helpless, unresisting Man was nailed to it; yet it was mightier than the world, and triumphed, and will ever triumph over it."

- Augustus William Hare

What was achieved by the cross? What does this moment really mean for us as a people of God?

Listen as Pastor Nick Barber shares with us what was truly triumphed over on that cross.
