This Easter Sunday we address life’s final question: Death. When a loved one dies - it’s never just the loss of a life. Dreams once shared, now become shattered. Hopes that were delayed, now turn into disappointment. Is death the end? Is there hope beyond the death of a loved one? Ps Johanan brings us a Christian perspective to these questions in Death, Delay, & Disappointment. And hear from Maria, as she shares her journey of bereavement & faith.

Last year, more than US$43bn was spent worldwide on Self-Help (just US$10bn less than what was spent on COVID-19 vaccines in 2021). Everyone is chasing some idea of “the good life” - what’s yours? Ps Johanan brings the first installment in this new Questions & Answers series: How Good is “Good Enough”? (from Matthew 19:16-22).

Evangelism poses a challenge - not only for us as individuals - but for the church as a whole. Ps Johanan helps us see how Evangelism is one powerful way God transforms His church in 'The Gospel Unleashed' from Acts 11:1-18.

There are many reasons why Christians might be reluctant to evangelise. But few would think that one of the core reasons for this reluctance, is pride. Ps Johanan helps us see God’s gracious inclusion of all peoples in His plan for salvation. Let Acts 10:30-48 challenge the pride in our hearts!

Does evangelism often feel like lonely work to you? Is it a struggle to find meaningful opportunities to share the gospel? Ps Johanan encourages us from Acts 10:17-29, in Divine Appointment!

Have you ever been excluded and left out? When it comes to evangelism, are there people you exclude from hearing the gospel? Are there realities about God and about Evangelism, that could speak into such exclusion? Ps Johanan answers these questions from Acts 10:1-16, in Terrified and Perplexed.

Do you struggle with evangelism? Do you feel like you lack both a heart and an ability to bring others to Christ?  Ps Johanan brings us Once Upon a Saul from Acts 9.

In last Sunday’s passage, Paul has shown how powerfully grace can fuel generosity. But practical questions do remain. This Sunday, Ps Johanan answers 3 of these questions from 2 Corinthians 8:8-15, in Not A Command.

What is generosity? How can I know if I am generous? And what does Christian grace have to do with generosity? As we prepare for next Sunday’s Gift To The King collection, we will see how we can Excel in Grace, in this first sermon of the series SAINTsational Generosity. Ps Johanan unpacks 2 Corinthians 8:1-7.

“But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation...”

1 Peter 2:9a

Is life just all of what we see and know? Is this all there is to the meaning of “being human”? Is this tangible existence all there is? Ps Johanan brings us the final sermon - Sacred People from Exodus 19:2-6 to hear how being priests provides unexpected answers to these questions!
