5. The Dragon (REVELATION)
The dragon, the beasts and the mark of the beast. Revelation shows us the dragon working on earth through empires, power and propaganda, and asks where we have taken on his mark in how we live, spend and treat others. The victory is won, the kingdom is still growing, and we get to choose whether…

4. 7 Seals & Trumpets (REVELATION)
The most hectic stretch of Revelation, and too much to cover in detail, so we keep to the broad strokes. The Lamb takes the scroll, the right to rule heaven and earth, and opens each seal. Revelation 6-11 Benj Gould Revelation series
-
A Change of Status
Baptism Sunday. Why do we baptise people? All through the Bible, water is where God changes people's status: Noah, the Red Sea, the Jordan, John the Baptist. Jesus steps into every one of those stories, and that shows us what baptism means. Matthew 3:13-17, 28:16-20 Benj Gould
-
3. The Throne (REVELATION)
A look behind the curtain at what is happening right now, not at some future event. The throne is surrounded by mercy and covenant promise, and on it sits the Lamb. Revelation 4 & 5 Benj Gould Revelation series
-
2. To The Churches (REVELATION)
Jesus writes to seven real churches. We look at the first and last, Ephesus and Laodicea. He calls them back to the centre and asks them to stay on Team Lamb, while living in an empire that pulls hard in the other direction. Revelation 2 & 3 Benj Gould Revelation series
-
1. Of Jesus (REVELATION)
Most people ignore Revelation or get far too into it. We look at the main ways people read the book, then start where the book starts: the revealing of Jesus. Revelation 1 Benj Gould Revelation series
-
God Is Great, God Is Good (Phil Blair)
"God is great, God is good" might be a kids' grace, but it sums up who God is. In the song Israel sang after crossing the Red Sea, God is unlike any other god, and he uses his power out of faithful love for his people. Both truths meet at the cross, and we can lean on both in the week ahead.…

Suffering (Joseph Newman)
How do we suffer well when we've done nothing to deserve it? God's people in exile wanted a quick way out. Instead, God told them to plant gardens and seek the good of the city they were in. Our pain can become a place where God grows something, and when others are hurting, we can simply be with...
-
Becoming A Jesus-y Man
A Father's Day talk on what it looks like to be a Jesus-y man in a confusing time to be a man. Be watchful, stand firm in faith, be strong, and do everything in love. That means making spaces safe, praying daily for the people around you, using strength to serve, and showing warmth. Jesus is the...
-
Stages, Tables & Cores
Why do we gather on a Sunday, and why do we do it the way we do? A look at how Greenhouse is built, drawn from the life of the early church. Acts 2:42-47 Benj Gould
-
10. Do Not Covet (10 COMMANDMENTS)
The last commandment is about the heart, not an action. Desire sits underneath all the others, and it shapes what we worship and chase. That makes desire a deeply spiritual matter. Exodus 20:17 Benj Gould 10 Commandments series
-
9. Do Not Testify Falsely (10 COMMANDMENTS)
This command is narrower than "don't lie". It is about false testimony against a neighbour, and a community only works when words can be trusted. Lies bind us up, and when false witnesses came against Jesus, he absorbed it rather than strike back. Lies bind, but the truth sets us free. Exodus…

8. Do Not Steal (10 COMMANDMENTS)
Exodus 20:15 Angus McGregor.
-
7. Do Not Commit Adultery (10 COMMANDMENTS)
Sex is good, powerful, and designed for covenant. Between purity culture's starvation diet and our culture's fast food diet sits the banquet of covenant love. The 10 commandments are wedding vows between God and Israel, and Jesus stays faithful to his bride. A word for healthy marriages, hurting...
-
6. Do Not Kill (10 COMMANDMENTS)
"You don't have to spill blood to kill life." Every person carries the image of God, and killing starts in the heart with anger and contempt, when we see someone as an issue rather than a human. Jesus refused that way, even on the cross. We are called not only to avoid taking life, but to add…
more -
5. Honour Your Parents (10 COMMANDMENTS)
To honour means to give weight. In a culture that resents older generations and forgets its history, this is the only command with a promise attached. Even on the cross, Jesus made sure his mother was cared for, and he gave us a new spiritual family. What you refuse to weigh, you pass on thin....
-
4. Sabbath (10 COMMANDMENTS)
Why is the Sabbath the one command we feel fine breaking? It was a gift to former slaves and it is a gift to a weary, always-on people. Jesus said the Sabbath was made for us, not us for the Sabbath. Sabbath is not your salvation, but it might just save you. A simple rhythm: stop, pray, play....
-
3. Don’t Misuse My Name (10 COMMANDMENTS)
Misusing God's name is about more than swearing. It means signing God's name to things he never said. So much church hurt comes from this. Jesus carried God's name perfectly, and we carry it as we stay in him. Three questions for testing "God told me": Does it fit Scripture? Is it self-serving?…
more -
1. I Am The Lord Your God (10 COMMANDMENTS)
We start a new series on the 10 commandments. The first word isn't a command at all: "I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of slavery." Sinai is a wedding, and the commandments are vows that come after the rescue. In communion, Jesus invites us into a new covenant: "I am yours. Will you be...
-
Sheep & Goats (Beyond Sunday)
In the sheep and goats, Jesus says we meet him in the faces of the hungry, sick and imprisoned. That's why 10% of everything given to Greenhouse goes beyond our walls: half to church planting and half to our Beyond partners. We hear about the work of those partners and ways to get involved.…

Come Holy Spirit (PENTECOST)
Acts 2. Bernie Higgins.
-
6. New Creation (THE STORY OF GOD)
The ending changes everything. The Bible doesn't end with us escaping to heaven. Heaven comes down, all things are made new, and evil is dealt with. Knowing the ending, we live as ambassadors and citizens of new creation, working for peace, hospitality and reconciliation now. The church is a...
-
5. Church (THE STORY OF GOD)
Act five is where we come into the story. The church is God's new temple, where heaven and earth meet, and a witness to the story rather than the story itself. We are fragile clay jars holding treasure. On Mother's Day, we look at the church as our mother, and at how honesty about our cracks lets...
-
4. Jesus (THE STORY OF GOD)
At the centre of the story is a person. Jesus is the new Adam, Abraham, Moses and David. His life retraces Israel's story, and he is God's Word and presence in the flesh. He doesn't just trust the story, he is the story. Where everyone before took, in communion we learn to receive. John 1:1-14,...
-
3. Israel (THE STORY OF GOD)
Will there be anyone who can trust the story? Abraham, Moses and David each come close, then take the promise into their own hands. God gives the law and the tabernacle, but the story ends in exile and waiting. Name the part of your story that feels like exile, and instead of managing it, bring…
more -
2. Fall (THE STORY OF GOD)
The fall wasn't so much falling from something as falling out of trust. The serpent sows suspicion that God is holding out on us. That suspicion spreads from Eve to Cain to Babel: it touches me, my relationships, and society. Sin is crouching at our door and we can't master it alone, but Genesis…
more -
1. Creation (THE STORY OF GOD)
We all live by a story, and to know God we need to know his. In a new series through the Bible's six acts, we start with creation. Genesis isn't a science textbook. It tells us who made the world and why: it was designed on purpose, and it was good. The invitation is to trust the story. Genesis 1…

Who will roll the stone away?
Easter Sunday 2026. "Who will roll the stone away?" is humanity's great question, because death is our greatest enemy. The gospel is news: the tomb is empty. Jesus is the first fruit of the harvest, a sign that our own resurrection is coming. If the resurrection is real, everything sad will come...
-
4. SHEMA: Strength
The Hebrew word for "strength" means "muchness": your energy, your body and your money. Our limits make us human, and where we spend our limited muchness shows what we love. Jesus took on limits to show his love, and the widow gave her last two coins. Loving God with your strength lands in your...
-
14 Stations Of The Cross - Walking Meditation (REPOST)
It's Holy Week. The lead up to Easter. Take some time, grab your headphones, and go for a walk as we lead you through a guided meditation of the 14 Biblical Stations Of The Cross.
-
Prayer Walk Week Launch: Wheat & Weeds (Jeff Nagle)
We combined together with a bunch of local churches to launch our week of Prayer Walking.
-
2. SHEMA: Soul
You don't have a soul, you are a soul. Loving God with your soul isn't about spiritual intensity. It's about becoming whole, letting Jesus into every room of your life. Story is what integrates us: the true story of God in Scripture, and our own story brought to him in prayer. Mark 12:28-34 Benj...
-
1. SHEMA: Heart
Jesus called the Shema the greatest commandment: love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength. We begin with the heart. In the Bible the heart is more than feelings. It is the wellspring, the throne and the compass of our lives. Desire is contagious, so we train our hearts in worship...
-
Vision Sunday 2026
Seven years in, our vision is the same: following the way of Jesus into the restoration of our neighbourhoods. But the world has changed, and the tide is turning. Like the disciples at the lake, we're called to listen, work together, and put down the nets again. We share our five big prayers for...
-
What Is Work?
From our annual Sending Festival. The Bible begins with work: God turning chaos into order. Work is good, but since the fall it is cursed, and we swing between idleness and idolatry. The way through is to work as if Jesus is your boss, because he is, and to learn his unforced rhythms of grace. We...
-
4. LUKE 20: Religion & Caring For The Poor (Rich Hall)
Luke 20:41-47
-
3. LUKE 20: Resurrection & Marriage (Sienna Corkill)
Luke 20:27-40
-
2. LUKE 20: Who’s Image?
How do Christians live in a political world? When Jesus is asked about paying taxes to Caesar, he points to the image on the coin. Caesar can claim our coins, but God claims us, because we carry his image. We take part in the system without worshipping it, and give our first allegiance to Jesus,...
-
1. LUKE 20: Stewardship or Control
As we start 2026, Jesus tells a parable about tenants who try to seize a vineyard instead of caring for it. Control says "this exists to serve me". Stewardship says "this is a gift to look after". In marriage, parenting, work and church, the invitation is to make Jesus the cornerstone, loosen our...
-
3. TRANSCENDENTALS: The Beautiful (Benj Gould)
Truth and goodness sound like God, but beauty? God is beautiful and loves beauty, and the first person filled with the Spirit in the Bible was an artist. Beauty is where heaven and earth overlap. It reminds us who we are and where we're going. Every act of love, hospitality and creativity is a…
more -
2. TRANSCENDENTALS: The True (Benj Gould)
"What is truth?" Pilate asked, standing in front of it. In a world of "your truth", algorithms and fragmented realities, truth is reality, and reality has a name: Jesus. Sin is living against reality. Discipleship is learning to live in it, and Christians should never be afraid of truth, because...
-
1. TRANSCENDENTALS: The Good (Benj Gould)
This Advent we follow the signs that point to Jesus, as the Magi followed the star. We begin with the good. Creation was made good, and goodness is always relational. At the tree, we took the right to define good for ourselves. Jesus is the ultimate good who will make all things right, and when…

10. TRELLIS: Witness // light in an age of darkness (Benj Gould)
The final practice in our Trellis series. Together we are the light of the world, a city on a hill. That means not hiding and not attacking, but shining in the patch God has given each of us. The tide is turning and people are looking for light. Pray for the people in your world, and invite…
more -
9. TRELLIS: Silence & Solitude // depth in an age of noise (Benj Gould)
We live in the noisiest age in history. The busier Jesus got, the more he slipped away to quiet places to be with the Father. Silence isn't empty, it's full of God. The world doesn't need louder Christians, it needs deeper ones. A weekly rhythm of silence, and maybe a longer retreat, can help.…
more -
8. TRELLIS: Fasting // Spirit in an age of flesh (Benj Gould)
Fasting runs all through Scripture and church history, yet it has nearly disappeared. In a culture of instant gratification, fasting is your body telling your flesh that the Spirit is in charge. It isn't punishment, pressure on God, or a diet. It's a way of following Jesus with your stomach, and...
-
7. TRELLIS: Generosity // contentment in an age of consumption (Benj Gould)
We try to cure our endless hunger with more, but that's like drinking salt water. Jesus talked about money more than almost anything else. Money is seed, not just fruit. We give from joy, not guilt, and generosity enlarges our lives. A tithe is a good place to start. When we give, we don't lose…
