We continue on in Philippians Chapter 2! What does the Apostle Paul mean by “work out” your salvation? Is Paul speaking to believers or unbelievers? We dive deep into Philippians 2 to discover how the Holy Spirit helps us apply this wonderful truth to our lives today.

Each of these women, (Eve, Sarah, Rahab, Ruth, Mary) highlight for us what it is to be a Christian.

Philippians is a letter about joy. The idea of joy or rejoicing is mentioned 12 times in 104 verses in the NIV. Yet this book is written by a man in prison, in chains, isolated from his friends, facing potential death. How can he still be joyful? Can we have joy in the rough and tumble of life? This morning

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

This morning, we are wrapping up our series on 1 Samuel. We finish the series at chapter 8, which marks a significant turning point in the narrative of Samuel and even in the narrative of the Bible. In asking for a King like the nations, Israel rejects their identity as God’s chosen people. This chapter becomes a warning for us.

Join us for our 2025 Christmas service.

You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last.” – John 15:16. We continue our TULIP series with the “U” which stands for Unconditional Election. Of all doctrines, the grace of God is seen most clearly in election and it is this doctrine perhaps more than

This is the first of a five-part sermon series on the the five points of Calvinism, also known as TULIP. We take a look at the ‘T’ which stands for ‘Total Depravity’. R.C. Sproul said: “We are not sinners because we sin. We sin because we are sinners.” Due to technical difficulties the sermon is in two parts (i.e. two

Join us for our second week in the book of 1 Samuel. Godly leadership is so important in the building up of God’s Church and poor leadership can only lead to spiritual decline.

This year at Church, we have been working through “The Vine Project” and wanting to align all we do to become a ‘disciple-making’ culture. What is the Vine Project? The Vine Project is more than a book. It is a helpful roadmap which sets out to help the church to change its culture to become a disciple-making culture. Through the

“Why?” It’s the most repeated question in a child’s vocabulary … but it is also at the very heart of philosophy and faith. Why are we here? Why does anything exist? What is true? In an age of impressions, illusions, and opinions, how can we know what is true?

Discover how the gospel of Jesus Christ

We may not see the battle, but the spiritual fight is real. Ephesians 6 warns us of a fierce battle against unseen forces—angels and demons—and the good news is that, through Christ, we already know who wins. This afternoon, we’ll explore how to stand firm, know our enemy, and rely on God’s strength to fight the battle we’re in.

Romans 1:16-18 are the verses which many say the whole rest of Romans then unpacks.  Romans 1:17, in particular, is often known as Martin Luther’s verse, one upon which much of the reformation focussed.  Yet when we break down the elements of it and study the verse can we really explain what it means? What is the righteousness of God? 

As we enter 1 Samuel 5 the Ark of the Covenant is in the hands of the Philistines. However, God is greater than any of Israel’s enemies and far greater than any of their man-made idol. The Lord’s authority and power are on full display.

This Sunday we will continue our series on Ezekiel coming to chapter 34.

The Profession of Faith of CS. As we enter the second chapter in our Philippians sermon series we take a look at the example of Christ in the life of the church.

Theme: Judgement is Certain! Point One: Living in Denial Point Two: Living in Delay Point Three: Living in Expectation

This morning, as we finish 2024, we will reflect on the Church of Laodicea, exploring the dangers of self-sufficiency and the need to recognise our dependence on Jesus and the power of the gospel.

In the final of the 7 letters to the churches, Jesus has no commendation for the church in Laodicea. His criticism is that they are neither hot nor cold, rather they are lukewarm. Spiritually this amounts to Apathy. They are not against God, but not excited or passionate about him either. It is not criticism of something we think is

We move into 1 Samuel 3. The Word of the Lord was rare in those days, but God breaks through the silence by calling young Samuel to the office of prophet. His first task? To deliver devastating news to Eli the priest of impending judgment.
