The One Who Already Knows (Richard Pemberton)

Encountering Jesus & The Kingdom In The Sermon on the Mount (Tope Akinola)

In this message, Tope takes us through the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) to reveal what Jesus really came to teach—not rules and religion, but the kingdom of God and the heart of the Father who gave His word. Through the Beatitudes, the call to be salt and light, and profound teachings on forgiveness, worry, and generosity, Tope shows us that we are kingdom royalty who must learn how to live as the Father intends, with responses (like rejoicing in persecution) that are radically different from the world's way. As you listen, consider: Am I building my life on the solid rock of Jesus' words and actually doing them, and am I willing to let the kingdom reshape how I live at work, in my relationships, and in my daily choices?

Jesus Transforming Culture and Traditions (Bolade Onilari)

In this message, Bolade challenges us to examine the traditions and cultural practices we've inherited, drawing on Jesus' confrontation with the Pharisees in Mark 7:1-22, where he exposes how human traditions can replace God's law and distract us from what truly matters. Through personal stories and examples from church life - cooking for new parents, checking on one another, nurturing marriages and children - Bolade reveals how the best traditions are those rooted in God's word and built on the language of love. As you listen, ask yourself: What traditions am I holding onto that might be contradicting God's law, and am I willing to let the Holy Spirit reshape me so that my life and relationships reflect Jesus' character and reflect his kingdom?

An Example To Follow (Phil Chapman)

In this message, Phil explores the profound moment when Jesus, fully aware of his divine authority and identity, humbles himself to wash his disciples' feet at the Last Supper (John 13:1-17). Through this intimate encounter, Phil reveals that Jesus' action demonstrates two powerful truths: a spiritual washing away of sin through the cross, and a practical example of servant-hearted love that Jesus calls his followers to imitate. As you listen, consider: Do I truly know who I am in Christ, and am I willing to follow Jesus' example of humble service to others, trusting in God's promise to bless those who love and serve one another?

The One With The Storm (Benj Lyon)

In this second instalment of Seaside Stories, Benj explores the moment Jesus calms a fierce storm on the Sea of Galilee (Mark 4:35-41), where experienced fishermen find themselves terrified, convinced they're going to drown—until Jesus speaks and everything becomes still. Through this encounter, Benj reveals two essential questions that sustain us when life's storms shake us: Who is Jesus to me in this moment, and what has he said to me? As you listen, be encouraged that Jesus doesn't promise to remove all trouble from our lives, but he promises to be present with us in it, bringing order to chaos and peace that transcends our circumstances.

Restored Not Condemned (Ovi Vlaicu)

In this message, Ovi traces Simon Peter's remarkable journey with Jesus across three pivotal encounters—from the miraculous catch of fish in Luke 5, through Peter's devastating denial in Matthew 26, to his restoration by the sea in John 21—revealing that Jesus meets us not with condemnation but with restoration. Through the profound question "Do you love me?" asked three times over Peter's three denials, Ovi shows how Jesus breaks through our shame, fear, and feelings of unworthiness to call us back to purpose and belonging. As you listen, know that no matter how badly you've failed or how far you've wandered, Jesus is asking you the same question today: if you say yes, your story is not over—restoration is waiting.
