Do we often pause to think about how God feels about us? Many of us only focus on what we think we should do for God. While doing things for God is part of our calling, if we only ever focus on this we can miss God’s heart of us, His church, leading us to feel isolated, burned out, or even distant from God. In this sermon, Daniel reminds us of just how much God delight’s in the Church, so much so that Jesus gave His life for us.

Some of us struggle to grow our relationship with God, this might be because we relate to Him in the wrong way. Many relate to Him out of fear of punishment. The bible often tells us to fear God, however this fear has to do with a reverential awe of God, not a fear of punishment. In this sermon, Marcio unpicks this and other reasons why we are not growing in our relationship with God. He then helps us to understand how we are to relate to God so we can grow in our relationship with Him.

The world is made of things that are natural and supernatural. In the same way there are things about us that are natural and some things that are supernatural. While some religions might prioritize flesh over spirit, or spirit over flesh, the Christian view is that Jesus has come in the flesh to bring our bodies into the domain of the Spirit, the kingdom of God.

Do you feel like you are doing all that you can do to please God, yet constantly have a worrying feeling that you aren’t doing enough? A lot of Christians go through life with a feeling of constant condemnation, trying more and more to reach an unattainable standard. The truth is that we have fallen short of God’s standard, but the good news is that the bible tells us that, “There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus”. In this sermon Daniel unpacks what this truth means for Christians.

So often we Christians approach God through the law, we continually try in our own strength to reach the standards of the law but fail at it, putting heavy burdens on ourselves. The law is like a perfect husband who continually reminds us of our failures but never helps us to overcome them. In this sermon, Pete reminds us that we are to relate to and approach God through Jesus because He is the perfect Husband who has satisfied the demands of the law and who helps us to become more like God.

In this sermon Daniel reminds us that Christianity is not about the externals of our lives e.g going to church on a Sunday, but about a complete transformation of our inward self.

Nehemiah 3 tells the story of how each person played a part in rebuilding the wall of Jerusalem. Charles links this to the church today reminding us that each of us have a part to play in the Kingdom of God. He challenges us to remember that we are not called to a life of comfort, but to a life following Jesus wherever He leads us.

God is doing amazing things in our generation, turning the hearts of people back to Himself. In this sermon we are reminded to go to God in prayer, continually seeking His help to see a revival in our churches, City, and Nation.
