Panania Anglican Church Sunday Mornings

Oscar helps us see what it means to be brought into the light, challenges us whether we are children of the light, and urges us to walk in the light.

Rod uses the Parable of the Prodigal Son to open up the before-and-after of a Christian's conduct. He challenges us to put off the old "pigsty" behaviours and put on the robes of righteousness that our Father has graciously given us in Christ.

For our Combined Churches SRE Service, special guest Michael Hunt from Revesby Congregational Church reminds us of how God's grace shifts us to people of compassion who want to bring good news to others.

Guest speaker Stephen Gibson from Anglicare reveals how we are to live lives worthy of our calling in Christ: with a oneness that comes from our common salvation and God's own one-ness, so that we will grow in Christ-like maturity.

How can you improve not just your prayer-life, but your praise-life? Jon walks us through why Paul prays, who he prays to, what he prays, and how that leads to praise.

What is it that makes someone belong to the church? God's word reminds Gentiles (most of us!) that:

1) It was God who brought you in - so who can question that you belong?

2) God brought you in for his glory - so who can set any limits on God's grace?

Have you been saved by Jesus? Guest speaker Matthew Meek asks who needs to be saved, who saves who, and how are we saved?

Jono encourages us to keep going in following Jesus, even through the ups and downs. Ephesians 1 says we do that by knowing God better - his hope, his riches, and his power.

As we start a new series in the Letter to the Ephesians, Jon does some detective work on the letter and then we count our spiritual blessings.

Jon explores experiences of doubt that we have, examples of doubters in the Bible, and leaves us with some explanations of doubt.
