A church that goes beyond themselves

Leaders build teams (Nehemiah 3)

We continue our series on leadership as presented through the book of Nehemiah, this time we’re focusing on Nehemiah 3 where we have the record of all those involved in the rebuilding of the walls. We see that when it comes to building God’s kingdom nobody is less important than anybody else and that we each have a part to play. So Jono raises the questions; Are you mucking in? What is your lane? How will God use you? Speaker: Jono Simpson Bible reading: Nehemiah 3:1-14

Leaders carry vision (Nehemiah 2)

Today’s message is the second in our series on Nehemiah. Jono shows us that true leaders carry vision and explains that if you don’t have vision, you don’t know where you’re going. But how do you establish a vision, where do you start and how do you see it through? We find the answer in Nehemiah chapter 2.

Prayer before plans (Nehemiah 1)

We’ve started a new series on leadership; drawing from the book of Nehemiah. What do we do when troubles come our way? Jono shows us the steps Nehemiah takes and how we can find greater peace and confidence in our heavenly Father when we pray before making plans. Speaker: Jono Simpson Bible reading: Nehemiah 1:1-11

Trouser-pocket evangelism

Today’s message is brought to us by Reverend Sheila Perkins a long standing friend and spiritual mentor to the Simpson household Sheila walks us through Jesus’ commandment to “make disciples of all nations” and how that may not necessarily mean grand missionary journeys to far off countries. Rather we are called to simply make disciples in all areas of our lives, bringing the gospel to everyone we meet. This, as Sheila explains, can be the greatest and most exciting adventure. Speaker: Reverend Sheila Perkins Bible reading: Matthew 28:16-20

How to live a life of impact

On this Pentecost Sunday we remember the moment ordinary people were transformed into a movement that changed the world. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, the disciples discovered a new power source for life — one that filled them with courage, joy, generosity and purpose — and the same invitation is still open to us today. Speaker: Lucy Simpson Bible reading: Acts 2:1-21 and 42-47
