Pastor Graeme unpacks Jesus’ parable of the ten virgins in Matthew 25:1–13 and asks a pretty direct question: are we actually ready for the King to return, or are we just looking the part? He challenges the difference between religious performance and a real, life-changing relationship with Jesus, pointing us back to grace, the Holy Spirit, and what Christ has already done for us.

This is a wake-up call to stop relying on appearances and get serious about knowing Jesus while there is still time. The bridegroom is coming, and none of us knows the day or the hour.

Michael Keefe from Compassion joins us as a guest speaker looking at Matthew 22:35–40 and the connection Jesus makes between loving God and loving our neighbour. He challenges the idea that worship and justice can be separated, showing how genuine devotion to God should naturally overflow into compassion, generosity, and practical love for people who are vulnerable or struggling.

It’s a reminder that following Jesus isn’t just about what happens on Sunday. Our worship should shape how we live on Monday—and when worship and justice meet, people get to see something of Jesus.

This week, guest speaker Chris Luthy looks at Acts 16:6–10 and what it means when the door seems shut. Sometimes the timing isn’t right, and we’re called to pray, wait, and trust that God is doing far more than we can see. But other doors are already open—and the challenge is to notice them, step out in faith, and actually share the good news of Jesus.

It’s a practical reminder that mission isn’t about having everything figured out. We trust that God is in control, look for the people he’s already preparing, and obey when the opportunity comes.

In this message, Andrew walks through John 4 and the Samaritan woman at Jacob’s well, showing how Jesus meets her right in the middle of her questions, pain, and longing. He explores Jesus’ promise of “living water” and the deeper truth that the good things in life—family, work, food, success, and relationships—can be gifts from God without being able to carry the weight of our deepest desires.

It’s a reminder that the restlessness we feel isn’t always something to get rid of. Sometimes it points us back to the one we were actually looking for all along. Jesus offers more than another well to draw from—he offers life that becomes a spring within us.

Andrew walks through Genesis 16 and the messy story of Hagar, Abram, and Sarai, showing how the Bible refuses to hide the failures of real people. At the centre is Hagar’s discovery that God sees her—not just the surface, but the pain, confusion, and reality underneath.

It’s an honest look at suffering, trust, and why God’s presence is not a consolation prize, but often the greatest gift he gives us.

Andrew walks through Genesis 26 and the story of Isaac’s wells, showing how faith and fear can sit side by side in the same person. Isaac trusts God in a famine, yet still acts out of fear when pressure hits close to home.

It’s a grounded look at God’s blessing in the middle of opposition, and the way we live with the first fruits of God’s promises while still longing for the fullness to come. This message doesn’t pretend faith makes life easy, but it does remind us that God is still with us in the tension.

Andrew looks at the big question we all hit at some point: how do we know what to do when we don’t know what to do? Drawing from Revelation 6, Acts 16, Ruth, James 1:5, and Proverbs 3:5–6, he talks about fear, uncertainty, and the way God guides us through decisions.

It’s a grounded message about learning to pause, pray, seek wisdom, name what matters most, and then actually take the next step. Not with perfect certainty, but with the deep confidence that God is with us.

In this message, Mat takes 1 Thessalonians 4:9–12 and asks a pretty honest question: what does it actually look like to live quietly when everything around us is loud? He doesn’t land on escape or switching off from life, but on something deeper — a heart that treasures Jesus above every other competing thing.

From there, this becomes a practical call to love well, stop getting tangled in everyone else’s business, and pay attention to the work God has already put in front of you. It’s a grounded message about faith, distraction, idols, and learning to live with less noise.

Mat challenges the idea that there’s a “silver bullet” for following Jesus, ministry, relationships, or life’s messy situations. Looking at 1 Corinthians 9:19–23, he shows how Paul lived contextually—meeting people where they were for the sake of the gospel—because God doesn’t treat people like one-size-fits-all projects.

It’s a grounded call to stop trying to control every outcome and instead seek God’s leading, pray honestly, stay shaped by Scripture, and walk with Him one day at a time.

Andrew unpacks John 3 and the conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus, showing that new life with God is something we receive, not something we achieve. He connects that with Ezekiel 36, Judges 2:10, and Psalm 78, calling the church to make room for the next generation—both kids growing up in faith and people of every age being born anew in Jesus.

It’s a hopeful but serious reminder that faith doesn’t drift forward by accident; we have to keep investing, praying, and walking with those God is bringing to life.
