In this week’s message, Mark explores how a truly beautiful life begins with a right relationship to creation. Drawing on Romans 1:20 and Psalm 19, he contrasts the biblical vision—where the world reveals God’s power and invites awe—with our secular habit of seeing the world as mere “stuff” to exploit. From McCubbin’s Lost to Brack’s Collins St, 5pm, Mark traces how our posture toward nature and the city has shifted, often dulling wonder and weakening faith.

Mark then offers a practical, hope-filled reset: receive the world as a gift, embrace the limits of creation as engines of holiness, and practice attentiveness and gratitude in the ordinary—learning to look up, notice, and worship. As image-bearers and stewards, we’re called not to conform to the “age,” but to cultivate God’s beautiful order in the very places we live, work, and walk.

In this week’s message, Mark explores what it means to live with God-given purpose at the heart of a beautiful life. While our culture tells us to maximise pleasure, comfort, or self-made meaning, Scripture offers a different vision: we were created by God, in His image, to bring His beautiful order into the world.

Drawing on Genesis, Ephesians, and Joshua, Mark shows how purpose is awakened through intention—how our posture, our people, our patterns, and even what we choose to parent shape us into who we’re becoming. A life centred on Jesus doesn’t just receive His order; it releases it—like rivers of living water flowing into a thirsty world.

This is a message for anyone hungry to move from drifting to intentional living and to discover the beauty of a life aligned with God’s purpose.

In this week’s message, Mark launches a new series exploring what it means to live a beautiful life. In a world filled with noise, filters, and false signs pointing us in every direction, beauty often feels shallow and fragmented. But the Scriptures offer a richer vision—where beauty means harmony, coherence, and life ordered around the One who holds all things together.

Drawing from Mark 8, Isaiah’s prophetic vision, and Colossians 1, Mark reminds us that true beauty is not abstract or cosmetic—it is Jesus Himself. He is the centre, the King in His beauty, who brings order to our chaos, peace to our striving, and harmony to our lives.

Through story and Scripture, Mark invites us to step back and see the bigger picture: that when we place Christ at the centre, even the ordinary moments of life become part of a greater, breathtaking symphony.

This is a message for anyone tired of chasing the wrong signs, and longing to discover the beauty of a life centred on Jesus.

In this week’s message, Trudi Sayers unpacks the tension, purpose, and beauty of waiting. From the ache of unanswered prayers to the joyful anticipation of what’s to come, she reminds us that wait time is never wasted in God’s kingdom.

Drawing on the prophet Habakkuk’s honest cries, the parable of the ten virgins, and stories of persevering faith, Trudi shows how God uses waiting to align us with His timing, deepen our trust, and prepare our hearts for His move. Waiting is not passive—it’s a time to keep our lamps burning, remove roadblocks, and let God build in us a steadfast spirit that will endure and shine for generations to come.

This is a message for anyone longing to see God move—and learning to trust Him in the in-between.

In this week’s message, Mark Sayers explores how the kingdom of God advances—both in our world and in our hearts. Drawing from Mark 1 and the expansion of Melbourne, he unpacks what it means for Jesus’ authority to reclaim territory long held by other powers.

As our culture grows more spiritually open, how do we respond? Mark outlines three vital conversions—towards Christ, His cause, and His Church—and shows how they unlock lasting renewal in an age of deep hunger.

This is a message about surrendering resistance and partnering with God’s mission in a post-secular world.

In this week's message, Mark Sayers explores the story of Simon the Sorcerer in Acts 8 to reveal a deeper warning for our moment: when spiritual hunger is high but surrender is low. As our culture searches for power, shortcuts, and techniques, what happens when faith is reduced to just another tool for self-gain?

Mark traces the return of magic, the rise of spiritual curiosity, and the danger of maximising everything—even our faith. But there’s another way. Like the Magi who bowed before Jesus, we’re invited not to control the Spirit, but to kneel in awe before the One who gives it.

This is a message for a culture chasing wonder—and a Church called to welcome the seekers home.

In this message, Mark Sayers explores the “excluded middle”—the spiritual space between the natural and the overtly religious that modern secularism tries to ignore. But as crises shake our sense of control, more people are becoming open to the mysterious, the spiritual, and the unexplainable.

With insight from scripture, cultural trends, and personal stories, Mark challenges us to recognise this growing space and step into it with the authority and power Jesus gives. What if we’re not just called to believe high truths or navigate daily life—but to minister in the messy, mysterious middle where heaven meets earth?

Come be reminded: the middle isn’t something to fear. It’s the place Jesus sends us.

In this message, Mark Sayers explores how our world’s belief that “everything is just stuff” is beginning to crack. As spiritual hunger rises and people experience things they can’t explain, we’re seeing signs that the secular worldview is losing its grip.

With Psalm 19 as a guide, Mark reminds us that creation itself is speaking—declaring the glory of God. What if sunsets, surprise moments, and even questions are pointing us back to Him? And what if faith isn’t about escaping the world, but waking up to the wonder already within it?

Come and discover a simple, powerful way to live every moment with Jesus—no longer divided between sacred and ordinary, but fully alive to His presence in all things.

In this thought-provoking message, Mark Sayers unpacks Paul’s encounter in Athens from Acts 17 to help us see our cultural moment with fresh eyes. As interest in spirituality rises—from Gen Z turning to church, to tech leaders discussing the Antichrist in mainstream media—could it be that secularism is cracking?

Drawing on stories from across Europe and beyond, Mark suggests we’re not just seeing a revival of faith—but the beginning of a decline in secularism itself. What if people around us are more open to Jesus than we realise? And what if the Church is being invited to wake up and see what God is already doing?

Come be challenged and encouraged to step into this moment with courage, compassion, and a fresh sense of mission.

In this stirring message, Mark Sayers reflects on his recent time in Europe—where stories of surprising spiritual renewal are emerging from some of the world’s most secular environments. From ChatGPT pointing people to church, to rising faith among Gen Z across Scandinavia and beyond, something unexpected is happening: God is spreading a table in the wilderness.

But this message isn’t just about Europe—it’s about us. With Psalm 78 as a guide, Mark challenges the posture of cynicism that asks, “Can God really move here?” and invites us to reimagine what God might be doing in our own lives, churches, and cities. What if God is already at work—in the pain, the doubt, the slow days and dry seasons? What if the crumbs in your wilderness are the beginnings of heaven’s feast?

Come and be reminded that the wilderness is not a place of absence—but a place of encounter, transformation, and table fellowship with God.
