How Do We Stay Hopeful? - Against The Current: 1 Peter Series (Nathan Holland)

In the opening message of the new series 'Against The Current: 1 Peter', Nathan introduces 1 Peter 1:1–12, setting the stage for how believers are called to swim "against the current" of secular culture. Addressing a church facing regular trials and grief, he unpacks Peter's dual description of believers as both "elect" (chosen by God) and "exiles" (foreigners who do not truly belong to the world's system). The core of the message focuses on the reality of "living hope" anchored firmly in the resurrection of Jesus, which promises an inheritance that can never perish, spoil, or fade. Nathan explains that while our faith is actively refined by the fires of suffering and cultural pressure, this temporary grief ultimately proves the genuine value of our trust in Christ. The sermon concludes with a powerful reminder that our ultimate salvation and future glory are so profound that even ancient prophets and angels longed to catch a glimpse of the grace now given to us. 1 Peter 1:1–12; Daniel 6; John 15:18–19; Romans 5:3–5; 1 Peter 5:10; Revelation 7:13–17 Let Us Know You Are Listening [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2125288/fan_mail/new]

Partnering In God's Global Mission (Nathan Reid)

In this special guest message, Nathan Reid from Baptist Mission Australia explores Philippians 1:1–11, reflecting on the powerful dynamic of partnering together for the sake of the global gospel. Drawing on his own cross-cultural experiences, he shares how stepping out into mission—whether locally or supporting work in rural Southeast Asia—profoundly shapes our understanding of what it means to be a shepherd and a servant. He highlights that despite poverty, trauma, or cultural barriers, God actively calls and empowers ordinary people to display remarkable gifts in His global mission when the church stands together. The message concludes with a prayer for fresh, green shoots of love and a challenge to continue walking faithfully with the great God of Pentecost, who constantly sends us out to partner in His transformative work across the world.

All Nations Powered By The Spirit - Pentecost Sunday (Andrew East)

In this special Pentecost message, Andrew celebrates the radical unity brought about by the Holy Spirit, contrasting human division with God's inclusive Kingdom. Referencing the incredible linguistic diversity of Papua New Guinea as an illustration of how fear historically separates tribes into isolated groups, he explains that the Day of Pentecost beautifully reversed this division by gathering people from every nation into one family under Christ. Andrew emphasises that the Holy Spirit provides both a deep, shared connection across our differences and the divine power needed to live out our faith in a broken world. The message concludes with an invitation to move away from individual isolation and step into authentic community, encouraging believers to continually seek a fresh infilling of the Spirit's presence for healing, comfort, and bold service.

The God Who Rules History - Dare To Be Like Daniel Series (Andrew East)

In the final message of the Dare To Be Like Daniel series, Andrew explores Daniel 7, using Daniel’s terrifying vision of four chaotic beasts to reveal a consistent biblical framework for navigating secular culture. He explains that when earthly governments and powers reject God’s ways, they inevitably become "beastly"—oppressing people and crushing what is good. However, the message shifts to a powerful promise: the "Ancient of Days" and the "Son of Man" will ultimately destroy these corrupt systems, establishing an everlasting Kingdom of true justice and peace. Rather than placing our ultimate hope in failing human politicians, Andrew challenges the church to embrace their true calling: to live with bold integrity and courage, standing firm in the tension of the modern world because we know that God has the final victory.

Jesus, Women, and Children - Mother's Day (Grant Watts)

In this special Mother's Day message, Grant explores Jesus’ revolutionary "new order" that elevated women and children from the fringes of ancient society to the very centre of His ministry. He highlights how Jesus consistently broke cultural taboos by honouring women as the first witnesses of the resurrection and welcoming children, whom the disciples initially tried to turn away. Grant challenges the modern church to reflect this heart by leading the way in dignity and equality, ensuring that the marginalised—including refugees and the abandoned—are given a place of identity and belonging. The message concludes with a call to apply these values by actively loving those on the edges of our own communities, moving them from the shadows into the warmth of God’s family. Matthew 19:14; Luke 24:1-11; Galatians 3:28; Psalm 68:5-6.
