Saul's Conversion - Jack Boon | Bigger x Bolder

We love being completely certain. It feels good to have your lists sorted and your opinions firmly locked down. But keeping score gets exhausting. Living with a checklist for everyone else leaves us tired and isolated.In this talk, Jack looks at Acts chapter 9. He tracks the story of Saul, a religious elite who had his life completely flipped upside down on a dirt road. He wasn't looking to change. He thought he was the hero of his own story. Instead of forcing our own rightness, this conversation invites us to drop the mental scorecards. It invites us to open our lives to an unexpected interruption. We might just find that being changed means being sent to the exact people we used to avoid.Join us Sundays at 11am + 6pm.

Peter's Preaching - Stephen Tisnell | Bigger x Bolder

We hate losing control. Letting someone truly love us feels terrifying. We build high walls to stay safe. In this talk from our Acts series, Steven looks at Acts chapter 2. Peter stands up to give the very first church sermon. The crowd is waiting for a massive shift. They get something completely unexpected. Instead of staying safe and isolated, this conversation invites us to accept an unconventional birthday gift. God offers a promised kingdom to live in. He gives a real king to follow. He provides a new heart to live with. It happens through normal people having normal conversations. Join us Sundays at 11am + 6pm.

Pentecost - Steve Ormerod | Bigger x Bolder

Ascension - Heather Lee | Bigger x Bolder

We spend so much time worrying if we're doing enough. It's exhausting to constantly try to earn everyone's approval. Life can feel like an endless checklist of things to fix, debts to pay, and people to please. It leaves us tired and lonely. In this talk from our Bigger x Bolder series, Heather looks at Acts 1:1-11. She talks about the moment Jesus left and explains why his departure is actually good news for our daily lives. Instead of living under the constant pressure of performance, this conversation invites us to rest in a finished work. Salvation is a gift you don't have to earn. Join us Sundays at 11am + 6pm.

What has your attention? - Jonathan Smith | Talk Archive

We all try to build a life that feels secure. We put our jobs, our partners, or our ambitions on the top shelf of our lives. Then we wonder why the pressure feels so heavy. We expect regular people to give us what only God can provide. In this talk, guest speaker Pastor Jonathan Smith looks at Mark chapter 8 and Peter's very honest mistake. Peter tried to correct Jesus because he wanted the Messiah to follow his script. Instead of carrying the crushing weight of control, this conversation invites us to let go. We don't have to hand God a script for how we want our lives to go. We can step back, let Him take the top shelf, and follow where He leads. Join us Sundays at 11am + 6pm.
