In this second of three sermons on "Making Sense", Dave asks THE question - what's the meaning of life? And in doing so, Dave provides a powerful yet respectful critique of secular humanism and contrasts this with the Christian message of hope that's imperishable.

In this first sermon in a three part series on "Life, God and the Universe", Dave looks at doubt. Regardless of what we believe, whether we have Christian faith or otherwise, we all have doubts. How do we deal with it?

Where do we find meaning to life and lasting happiness? Many of us look for these things in various lifestyles and life goals, even religion. But there's only one answer that completely satisfies - the risen Christ, and what he means for our lives now.

As we endeavour to grow toward spiritual maturity, Tim Bones challenges us with the question - what's our next step?

Jesus is the image of the invisible God, and the image of what humanity is meant to be. Through him all things were created, including the billions of stars in our galaxy and the trillions of galaxies in the universe. There is no one greater.

This is the first sermon in series on Colossians. The Apostle Paul was writing to a group of Christians whom he'd never met in Colosse, a city that once was in modern day Turkey. And the words of advice Paul had to his readers then are just as applicable to us today. He urges us to hold fast to what is true; to to live transformed lives; lives that grow deep roots of spiritual maturity; lives that bear fruit.

It's so easy to start out with noble aims only to be distracted by things that gradually ensnare. Have we been seduced by the modern day idols of careers, wealth, power, sex; things that don't bring lasting happiness? How will we be remembered by others? Are we living in ways that are a blessing to others and honour God? These are the sorts of confronting questions Dave poses as he finishes up this sermon series on Numbers.

How do we resist materialism that leaches our lives of real meaning; where self-centered mindsets threaten our relationships and our communities? How do we resist things that bring short-term pleasures at the expense of lives filled with lasting love and joy and purpose? To answer these questions, Dave Rogers takes us back 3000 years to the story Balaam, and how he struggled with temptation for wealth and material comfort.

We seem to be living in an age of entitlement - where many of us (including Christians) expect special treatment. In today's sermon, Dave Rogers focuses on Numbers 20 and Moses' stumbling leadership, and his journey from privilege to presumption with God. Dave contrasts Moses' weak leadership with Jesus, who renounced all entitlements as God's son, and humbled himself to death on a cross that we might have life.

Fear can be controlling, whether it be fear of the approval of others, of not having enough, of being alone or whatever. In this sermon Dave shows us how fear can also lead us away from God, just as fear lead the Israelites in the wrong direction in Numbers 13-14, and how a rightful fear can lead us back to God.
