…by My Spirit, says the Lord of Hosts
Guest
Jesus died to give us the Holy Spirit. And we need Him, desperately. We must have the Spirit come upon us everyday, to enable us to be gracious to the ungracious, loving to the unloving, patient with the impatient. The only thing stopping us from receiving, is holding on to sin. Guest Speaker: Adrian Kebbe
Eldership – overcoming evil with good
Lam Paul Gak
Paul exhorts us to overcome evil with good. We need to be filled with the love of God to do this, for no human effort can overcome evil.
Eldership – the aim is love!
Rev. Michael Jensen
“The aim of our charge is love” – 1 Timothy 1:5 God’s love is unlike anything else. His agape love is supernatural – it is more than sexual love, friendship love or family love. We are called to be filled with this love, for without it we are nothing. (1 Corinthians 5)
Eldership – Building up the body of Christ
Rev. Michael Jensen
The body of Christ is not about one superstar person doing everything – it’s about all of God’s family becoming alive, serving God and one another in the unity of the Spirit. An elder’s heart is one that delights in others being built up in their faith.

Jonathan Wentworth
Guest Speaker: Jonathan Wentworth There is a fullness of God that is available to every believer. God gives you the permission to ask for all of Him. “You do not have, because you do not ask” – James 4:2

A man of God – a man under authority!
Rev. Michael Jensen
Authority is potentially one of the most vital things to understand as a follower of Jesus. What is it? Who has it? How should we relate to those who do? How do we honour authority in a culture which is consistently in rebellion against authority?
The necessity of scripture
Rev. Michael Jensen
The scriptures are God’s Word for us. They are 100% true, and are to be treasured and loved. To be a church who knows God, we must be a church who knows His Word.
Marriage – Made in Heaven
Rev. Michael Jensen
In the midst of chaos surrounding the subject of marriage, it can be easy to lose sight of what God intended when he designed marriage. When we look at God’s heart for this, we see a beautiful design:a man and a women becoming one, having authority and ruling the earth.
The priority of prayer
Rev. Michael Jensen
It is often the case that the Church has under-prioritised the need for prayer. We preach for hours and pray for minutes, and see little impact. When we look at the early church, they prayed for 10 days and in minutes of preaching, saw 3000 people saved! We need this power! We must fall on our knees […]
