Sermons

Ever had a job you’d never want to do again—boring, bitter, and backbreaking? Church eldership is the opposite: hard work, yes, but joyful, privileged service, strengthened by God’s grace and centred on Christ, who is the same yesterday, today and forever. Come hear how Hebrews 13 calls us to imitate our leaders’ faith by following their lead, submitting to their care, and praying for their strength.

As 2025 draws to a close, we stop to ask: what’s changed for you this year? Hebrews reminds us that while life moves fast and we change constantly, Jesus never does — He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Join us this Sunday as we explore how His unchanging grace frees us to live changed lives that bring Him glory in 2026 and beyond.

We look at two very different mountains – Sinai and Zion. One reveals God’s terrifying holiness, and the other welcomes us in through the blood of Christ. When the cosmic shaking of the world comes … only one kingdom remains unshakeable. Come and hear why we must not refuse His voice, but worship God with thankfulness, reverence, and awe.

We continue through Hebrews, looking at what God says about hardship and discipline in Hebrews 12.

Ready for a challenge? Life, like endurance sport, is about pushing through when your muscles ache and your mind says “quit.” Join us as we see what happens when you fix your eyes on Jesus, throw off what holds you back, and run your faith race with a team cheering you on. Curious if you have what it takes to finish well, and who’s waiting for you at the finish line? Come and find out—the race is already marked out for you.

We explore how faith looks to God’s future promises while shaping our lives today. Hebrews 11 reminds us that true faith is confident trust—grounded in Christ, not ourselves. Are you seeking assurance in what’s unseen? Does faith help you persevere and obey, even when the outcome is unclear? Consider how God’s gift of faith leads us to endure, anticipate, and belong to His greater story.

Stay the course. Jesus, our High Priest, has opened the way, so let’s run to the finish with confidence and faith. How are you drawing near to God with a sincere heart this week, and what’s holding you back from living boldly? Are we spurring one another on and meeting together as Hebrews urges, or have we settled for comfort and coasting? The warning is real: don’t trample grace by drifting away, but instead press on: what does true confidence look like for us as a church?

What if your future inheritance depended on a will — not just for your earthly possessions, but for your eternal life? Hebrews shows us that Christ’s death is the ultimate “will,” securing, completing, and perfecting our salvation. Today we’ll see how the new covenant guarantees that what Christ began for us is finished and unshakable.

Who was Melchizedek, and why does the author of Hebrews make so much of him?
