2000 years ago, the characters of the Christmas story looked up and saw a star guiding them to Jesus. Stuart Roberts unpacks the well-known Christmas carol “The First Noel,” encouraging us to be guided by Jesus in everything we do.

There are spiritual moments in life that can change everything in an instant — one silent, holy night and our world can be turned upside down. That’s exactly what the beloved carol Silent Night is about, as Alex Grime explains. This message will challenge you to be open to the still, quiet, unassuming moments when God speaks.

Every promise starts with a word, but if that word doesn’t lead to action, it is an unfulfilled, unfaithful promise — all bark and no bite. In this message, Lachlan Ford preaches on O Come All Ye Faithful, contrasting the unfaithfulness of half-hearted carol-singing so-called-believers versus the faithful, promise-keeping Jesus, who is the long-promised Word of God.

The Christmas story is one of joy and exuberance, yet at the same time, longing and waiting in a dark and desperate world for a Saviour to come and “ransom captive Israel.” In this message, Morgan RS unpacks the historical and theological roots of O Come O Come Emmanuel. Tomorrow… Tomorrow, He will be here.

“Gloria in excelsis deo” — glory to God in the highest. In this first message of our new “Why We Sing” Christmas series, Karen Brading unpacks the familiar song Angels We Have Heard on High, lifting our eyes to see the glory of God in the Christmas story.

Virginia Mathews wraps up our 2021 vision series: Love in Action with a sermon on the Good Samaritan. This message will encourage you to follow Jesus’ example of putting love into action by seeing, heart and understanding; acting; and committing.

When asked what the greatest commandment is, Jesus answered “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength… and love your neighbour as yourself.”
