During the month of December we are going to explore an ancient prophecy from Isaiah 9:1-7.

At the heart of the prophecy is the Messiah's arrival, and we recognise its fulfilment in Jesus, the Messiah who began his ministry in Galilee, embodying that light (Matthew 4:15-16).

Written around 700 BC amidst looming threats, this passage transforms despair into the dawn of God's eternal kingdom through the Saviour's birth.

As we near the end of an extraordinary 2025 through the biblical feasts outlined in Leviticus 23, Mathys brings closure to our year of immersive learning in the ancient rhythms of God.

As we have continually tied together the profound themes within God's feasts toward their fulfilment in Jesus, we are encouraged to value the relationship that is grounded in an annual rhythm with God.

Debbie shares our final Hebrew Moment for 2025 - 'qahal' - an assembly of people called together for divine purpose.

Eugene returns to share a message during a milestone celebration of all God has done - bringing together the Renew family, bound by love, united in Christ, growing in God's Word - and eager for God's continuing adventure ahead.

Jesus lived a life marked by profound gratitude, even amidst suffering, rejection, and the weight of his mission. He didn't just feel thankful, He expressed it openly, modelling a posture that acknowledged God's sovereignty, provision, and goodness in every circumstance.

Cultivating this kind of gratitude isn't about forcing positivity — it's about training your heart through intentional practices rooted in Scripture.

“Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good.” (Psalm 136:1)

As believers in Jesus, the practice of gratitude and thanksgiving is a profound spiritual discipline that anchors our hearts in the unchanging goodness of God.

This series, we learn that gratitude is an act of faith — a declaration that our Provider is faithful, our Redeemer is worthy, and every breath is a gift calling us to live with open hands and overflowing praise.

Mathys explains Hakarat Hatov - which is a call to 'recognise the good' in all things.

Jay highlights the Hebrew word 'Ed' meaning witness and 'Ud' to bear witness.

As our church matures, we should expect the Holy Spirit to lead us into new seasons of alignment with God's plan for renewal.

This talk is about Renew embracing a set of annual rhythms, deeply rooted in Scripture, that invites every member of our community to live in the unshakeable rhythm of heaven's calendar.

Jude employs vivid historical and apocalyptic imagery, to warn his readers against the influence of false teachers infiltrating the early Christian community.

Jude's cautionary tales lead towards urging believers to contend earnestly for the faith, by recognising and resisting such corrupters, lest they share in the ancient patterns of divine wrath.
