What God Reveals Through Moms

The Pearl of Great Price

We are all seeking, but do we realise it’s for Jesus? In this message, Luke Hulley reflects on Jesus as the "Pearl of Great Price" (Matthew 13v45-46) – the deepest desire of every human heart. Drawing from his own journey and Jesus' parable, Luke explores the different stages people go through as they search for meaning, purpose, belonging, and everlasting life. Whether someone is unaware of their need for God, awakening to a deeper longing, or wrestling with the cost of following Christ, this message reminds us that only Jesus can satisfy our deepest desires and needs.

Luke was a passionate schoolteacher for six years but now takes care of God’s children full-time, with a passion for teaching the Word and writing.

How Culture Affects Our Bible Reading

Are we interpreting Scripture through God’s intended lens? Our culture can influence the way we understand the Bible. In this message, Andrew Selley explains what faithful interpretation is: studying Scripture within its proper historical, cultural, and linguistic context to understand what it is really saying. This requires learning how Hebrew culture thought and communicated in the time the Bible was written. When we lack understanding, we can twist Scripture and apply it wrongly, leading to false beliefs that can ultimately be dangerous. Through an analysis of John 10v27-30, Andrew unpacks how our Western ways of thinking shape interpretation – helping us discover the true meaning of grace.

What God Reveals Through Moms

How does God’s design for motherhood reflect His nature? What is God’s plan for mothers? Motherhood is more than a role – it reflects an aspect of God. In this Mother’s Day message, Andrew Selley unpacks the beauty and purpose of biblical womanhood in a culture where God’s design is often challenged. Through Scripture, we see how mothers nurture, comfort, train, and shape lives in unique ways. Andrew highlights the importance of spiritual mothers within the church family. Whether through natural or spiritual children, every woman is called to build life into others and reflect God to the world.

Getting the Help You Need

What is the process for us, as saints, to have our needs met in church? In this practical message, Andrew Selley unpacks how God has designed His church to function when caring for people, drawing from Scripture and real-life experience. We are reminded that it begins with openness – speaking honestly and asking for help. At the same time, difficult conversations need to be embraced, as we take ownership and receive correction where needed. As Scripture shapes our expectations, we begin to understand where the church’s responsibility lies, and ours begins.

How We Are to Be Taught the Bible

Are you gaining knowledge—or actually being shaped into Christ’s likeness? Are we truly learning the way God intends, or simply gathering information? In this session, Andrew Selley challenges modern approaches to teaching and explores the biblical model of discipleship. Andrew contrasts information-driven learning with life-on-life transformation, showing how true growth happens through relationship, imitation, and intentional guidance. Drawing from Scripture and personal experience, he unpacks why proximity to godly leaders and practical application are essential for spiritual maturity. This session calls us beyond passive listening into active formation-reminding us that in God’s Kingdom, we are not consumers, but disciples being shaped for His glory.
