Join Adam Osborne as he continues teaching on the Apostolic and Prophetic ministry in a ministry time called - The kingdom realm of Yahweh's land. This final part exhorts the church to raise up a banner of love and come into the fullness of what God has intended in the days ahead. We hope you enjoy this time with us.

Join David Shooter the director of Sanctuary’s creative ministers as he translates to the body of Christ, some ideas about how to move further away from religion and deeper into the kingdom.

Join us for this special message on Easter Sunday from our special friend and fellow burning heart - Herald Isaac, as he invites to the widen our eyes to see more of the revelation of the cross and the fruit it is producing for the kingdom of God all across the earth. Enjoy. 

Our community wide prophetic word says: 2026 is a year of movement - not away from the former things, but towards inhabiting the ‘better way’ of personal and diligent seeking that is met by the ‘open’ reward of the Lord. Many have endured in 2025: in life, in circumstance, in the heart, in character and have had faith tested and the refining has now produced a substance of pure gold for Jesus. The wholehearted way continues, yet from vastness and more expansive vantage point. 2026 will see abundance where the word is carried. It’s a year of expansive ministry, like that seen in the book of Acts - where boldness fuses with faith and extraordinary things happen. This movement is catalysed not by works of righteousness, but of demonstrations of the the Spirit’s power. A year for the house of our lives to be fully undivided. A year of unhindered life with the Holy Spirit. With this in our hearts & minds we will come this weekend and help connect the dots of formation and movement together. Our God is the God who sees us and therefore sees everyone! Have you wondered what it would be like to share that with the downcast and the outcast?  Humility is the bedrock of all ministry, all of life, all relationships and is the key for living in and from the blessings of Almighty Yahweh God. This weekend we will venture from Genesis, seeing God seeing people! We will venture into Colossians and Galatians and finalise our time in early church ministry ways that turned the world upside down and inside out! We can’t wait to share this special time with you!

White fire meets black fire On Sunday the 8th of March we had the pleasure of Michael Cowley sharing the word with us. Michael is sharing around the following: The Torah was originally given by our Father as black fire on white fire, with the letters in a continuous, unseparated stream. Black fire is the literal (p'shat) meaning, while white fire represents deeper, hidden, or mystical meanings. To bring this into the light of todays church body, there are three scripture focuses that you can sit in this week leading up to Michael’s sharing: Isaiah 66:7-9, 1 Corinthians 12:19, Matthew 13:8. We encourage you to read these scriptures in the context of their passages to give you a broader picture.

The Lord Sees Differently In a world that often hates, rejects, and pulls us down, how do we keep our hearts steady and our hope alive? Join us as we explore what it truly means to see how the Lord sees. Through the words of Jesus and the apostles, we’ll discover our true identity as new creations who belong to a different kingdom. Janet Dawson will linking in our prophetic word for this sharing. The key scriptures are: John 16:16 & John 8:23 | 2 Corinthians 5:17 | Philippians 3:20. This will be another opportunity to learn to shift your eyes from the world’s view to heaven’s perspective. We look forward to sharing this time with you! 😊

No Turning Back This Sunday we had the pleasure of Esther Cowley bringing the Word. We’ve reached the shore of full surrender— no turning back. Burn the ships. Let every plank of compromise, every oar of half-hearted faith, go up in holy flame. For our God is a consuming fire (Heb 12:29), and He has not called us to drift, but to walk worthy, making the most of every moment (Eph 5:15-16), seasoned with salt, speaking with grace (Col 4:5-6). Count the cost. Leave the crowds. Carry the cross. Christ in you is the hope of glory (Col 1:27), and He is worthy of a life with no retreat. The ships are burning. The smoke rises like incense. Forward is the only direction left. 🔥⛵️No Turning Back. We can’t wait to share this special time with you all.

Maturity is compelling us in Christ to see beyond our limited positions of sight and our ‘before now’ lenses of life. Revival and Discipleship are incredible for the new believer! But what happens when we move into maturity in Christ? Into the fields of renewal that no longer require us to be brought back to life? We find throughout the precious scriptures that God has interwoven, emphatically and prophetically - markers of maturity as we move beyond the elementary things of the faith. This episode unfolds a little more of the authentic ways Jesus prophesied over people to not visit maturity like a holiday destination, but how He led people to reign and govern from maturity, displaying a formative process that empowers and nourishes believers to be able to ‘stand’ and ‘sit’ easily and simultaneously in faith. Kaleidoscopes give us fresh and joyful perspectives of the same reality, they give us alternative views of the same pictures, they give us re-imagined wonder. So it is in maturity or what the Bible calls ‘manifest sons & daughters’. This Sunday we will set out on an adventure into ‘formative ways to live in renewal’. We can’t wait to share this special and provoking time together as a kingdom family!  Enjoy. 

In this episode we have the pleasure of sitting under the teaching of Cath Osborne as she invites us to listen to the words Jesus speaks from the cross. Cath unpacks what it is to partake in and live from Biblical listening to our Lord and Saviour. This special time together will unpack the journey to the cross and the experience of the cross itself. Be sure to prepare by reading and engaging with the four Gospel accounts of the Cross! The Cross is one of the most special places where spiritual practices flow from and one of the most precious places of learning for the believer! We hope to engage in some examples of spiritual practices as a body which will spur you on and encourage you to stay the course. Enjoy

Into life is how the gospel is shaped to transform. It is a personal yet deeply communal way of living. Central to the believer growing in maturity is the recognition of confession. Confession is outdated and not needed. The Word of God implores us to readily confess, to become humble and to be empowered through sharing our weaknesses, so that His strength is perfected. In this latest portion from our series 'the heart of others', Pastor James Kenny encourages the body of Christ to take up our cross daily and follow Jesus.

Join us for the The Revealator and the Response-makers - Michael Cowley delves into the divine tapestry between God’s revelation and human response, drawing from Jonah 3:10–4:11, John 14:30, and 2 Corinthians 6:3. Michael will help us shine the light on God as the ultimate Revealator, unveiling truth and purpose through His word and Spirit. In Jonah, we see God’s mercy revealed to Nineveh, prompting repentance, yet Jonah’s reluctance exposes the human struggle to align with divine will. John 14:30 underscores Jesus’ submission to the Father, free from the enemy’s claim, modeling perfect response to revelation. In 2 Corinthians 6:3 Paul urges believers to live without causing others to stumble, we are called to become “Response-makers,” actively embracing God’s revelations with obedience and faith. He highlights the transformative power of abiding in Christ (John 15:7), where answered prayers flow from alignment with God’s will. Michael is calling the church to move beyond passive reception to bold, Spirit-led action.

Esther Cowley ignites a fire in believers to boldly proclaim their redemption through Christ. Drawing from Isaiah 61:1-4, she will unpack God’s promise to heal the brokenhearted, liberate captives, and rebuild ruined lives. In Luke 5:18-26, Esther will help illustrate the transformative faith of the paralytic’s friends, urging us to carry others to Jesus. Psalm 107:2 becomes a rallying cry—those redeemed must testify to God’s goodness! Esther will encourage us and challenge us to embrace our role as “repairers of the breach” (Isaiah 58:12), restoring hope in a broken world. With passion and conviction, Esther is calling the church to live as redeemed ambassadors of Christ’s love. This message will inspire you to stand firm against spiritual opposition, and actively participate in God’s redemptive work.

From the sacred words of Matthew 26, where Jesus, in the shadow of the cross, declares, “Look, the hour has come”. Senior Pastor Cath Osborne leads us in a word the spirit spoke 7 weeks ago… There is much that happens from the upper room to a garden and back to the upperroom.  It’s painful, yet so necessary… So much of what she is going to lead us in was confirmed on the weekend. Cath invites you into a poignant journey of the heart. In the garden’s hush, where betrayal looms and sacrifice whispers, we are called to awaken—to cast aside half-heartedness and embrace the fullness of devotion. This Sunday, let the weight of that holy hour stir your soul. Come, step into wholeheartedness, where love meets surrender, and the Saviour's call becomes our own. Join us as we seek to live fully for the One who gave all. Enjoy this enriching time of teaching.

There is a royal way and a royal life we are called and commissioned by Jesus to live from. Our hearts are royal realities of God’s dream for us. We will explore the keys to living with steadfast hearts as we pour ourselves out in Him and through Him. We will trek into the realities of the kingdom of God intertwining and threading through us and the ideas of our royalty in Christ that is on full display when we live from the whole healed heart ❤️‍🩹. We will dive deep into the understanding that “we have been made and designed to endure”. We can’t wait to share this special time with you all! Matthew 7 v 12-20 with an emphasis on; v 13-14 and 2 Thessalonians 3 v 1 - 5 with an emphasis on verse 5.

There are callous ways of thunking that inhibit the born again believer from finding the true nature of the incredible heart that God has created in each person. Circumstances, beliefs and trials can often show us how much callous thinking we are living from. Yet the believer has the mind and heart of God. We are called to be soakers who become so soft and supple from living in the Holy Spirit. Join Sanctuary Elder Janet Dawson as she unpacks insight into living callous free. Enjoy.

Jesus is constantly reminding you to believe that you are already clean because of the Word He has spoken over you. This week we begin a place of special significance in the Holy Scriptures in John 15. You can prep in verses 1 -17, where we will spend this Sunday unpacking the realities of ‘remaining: abiding in the thoughts of the Father’. This special time together will lead us a little further down the path in the phenomenal reality of being a branch that has been meaningfully put out to grow by the Father, the Son and the Spirit. Jesus didn’t need accolades or affirmations from the earthly realm because He had, Has , and was an archetype of the heaven reality being the place where we as believers are called, created and hand crafted to live from. It’s difficult to remain in Him, it requires such an unraveling, yet it is not impossible. You can be set apart unto the Lamb! 

As we continue our trek in John 13, it is vital to recognise the beauty and nature of Jesus’s life. Looking at how He is with His close and dear friends! From verses 18 - 38 we are catapulted into some phenomenal moments of kingdom friendship. In these verses we see Jesus respond to being betrayed by one of His closest, we see Jesus entrust His friends with the greatest mission ever and we see Him in an all knowing state that one of His closest friends was about to deny Him. Jesus shares a holy and powerful example of humility, prophecy and seeing the true gold in people, even in the midst of what can feel like shifting sands. It is a powerful example of the ebbs and flows of life in the Spirit. We look forward to being together again this Sunday and trekking a little further down this kingdom road.

There are times in life as a believer where it feels like there is nothing that can limit you or hold you back!

On Sunday the 4th of February we will explore the reality of the rooms that Jesus was in and what happens when you realise that you are a ‘room’ that changes the world: within you and around you! We can’t wait!

Jesus new commandment wasn't a law that needed to be followed and to be in fear of breaking, His new commandment was startling and a 'stop-you-in-your-tracks' type of life shift; to love others the way He displayed love, to see others through that love and to see yourself as one who has come from His love and is called to remain in His love. Enjoy this unpacking of John 13:31-38.
