Episodes

  1. Davourites: Acts 2

    What makes a good church? Whilst some of our answers will be personal preference, the New Testament gives us a blueprint for what are some absolutely necessary components for every Christian church to include. As well as being the final sermon in the series, it was Dave's final sermon in the parish.

  2. SRL: Luke 20

    Stephen preaches from Luke 20, exploring Jesus' authority as He responds to the religious leaders who challenge him. He also looks at the parable of the tenants and what it teaches us about who Jesus is and how we respond to Him.

  3. Davourites: 1 Peter 5:6-10

    This week Dave shared a verse that literally helped him sleep at night! And whilst 1 Peter 5:7 is a great verse on its own, understanding the context that it is in helps us know how best to apply it to our lives.

  4. Davourites: Ephesians 2:1-10

    Despite growing up in a Christian home, it wasn't until age 24 where Dave properly understood the gospel for himself. He credits that to the regular preaching of passages like this one, which is why he consider it one of his favourites.

  5. Davourites: Psalm 27

    Dave preaches from Psalm 27, one of his favourite passages of Scripture. In this psalm David displays his incredible confidence in God, and shares the 'one thing' that he wants from God.

  6. Deeper with God: in Relationships

    Churches can be socially awkward places, particularly if you approach them like an event. But churches aren't events, they are communities, they are a families. Therefore, God has expectations for how we treat each other. Dave offers some examples for how to make and maintain deep, loving...

  7. Deeper with God: in Bible Reading

    A sermon on Bible Reading could feel like a dietician telling you to eat more vegetables or a dentist telling you to floss... we all know it's good for us, we all know we should, but sometimes we just don't enjoy it. So what do we do? Try another reading plan? Dave offers another option, that…

  8. Deeper with God: in Prayer

    Sometimes we can believe the myth that God only wants to hear well-spoken prayers, which can leave us feeling like he doesn't to hear from us. Not only is that not true, but Jesus addresses this myth in Matthew 6, and then gives a very attainable model for deep prayer. Deep prayer doesn't come…

    more
  9. Deeper with God: in Worship

    Has modern, Western Christianity lost the biblical definition of worship, and conflated it with musical or theatrical excellence? Dave suggests it might be the case, and that the Bible offers a much different picture of what deep worship can look like today, and will look like in eternity.

  10. Matthew 14 - We Bring What We Have

    Stephen preaches a one-off sermon from Matthew 14, looking at the different responses to Jesus between the people who knew him in his home town and those who followed him out to the place of solitude.

  11. Genesis 45-47: We Are All in Full-Time Ministry

    There are many reasons we might put Joseph in the same category as any other hero of the faith, but he was quite a unique character, with unique gifts, for a unique season of Israel's life. Tim shares how God can, and will, use all of those who surrender their life to him to bring about his...

  12. Genesis 41: From Prison to Palace

    What can God do in the unknown? Can he work in the pain? Can he still bring fruit? Brendan asks these questions and shows how they are answered in this difficult time in the life of Joseph.

  13. Genesis 39-40: Where is God in the Unknown?

    Life is a rollercoaster. There are ups and downs and often we aren't in control of where we are headed. Chapters 39-40 of Genesis show the massive swings of in the life of Joseph, but they also show us that God is present through it all.

  14. Genesis 38: Where is God in the Mess?

    In a story full of adult themes, we once again get front row seats to the mess of sin in the family of Jacob. But at the end, there is one small glimmer of hope. Dave shows that, beyond Genesis 38, we see an ending that will shock everyone!

  15. Genesis 37

    We begin part three of our journey through Genesis from chapter 37, which is also the beginning of the story of Joseph. In this chapter, we learn about Joseph's place within his own family, and the tensions that were present. Stephen preaches about the wisdom that young Joseph could've shown, but...

  16. The Gifts of the Spirit: Using Them in the Church

    Just as Paul gets to the point in his first letter to the Corinthians of moving on from theology and into application, so our sermon series waited until the last week to get down into the 'how'. Thankfully, Paul is both helpfully specific and and helpfully broad in how he believes the Corinthians...

  17. The Gifts of the Spirit: The Endurance of the Spirit

    It was Pentecost Sunday, it was Baptism and Confirmation Sunday, and it was in the midst of a really challenging season for many people in our parish. So Dave opened Scripture to show how the coming of the Spirit at Pentecost fills God's people with power to endure in, and through, every season,...

  18. The Gifts of the Spirit: The Gifts

    Stephen opens God's Word to look at the various places where the gifts are described in Scripture, and what our church could look like if we discovered, understood, and used the gifts we've been given for the glory of God.

  19. The Gifts of the Spirit: The Intention of the Gifts

    To understand what we are to do with a gift, it often helps to understand who it was that gave us the gift. By calling them 'the gifts of the Spirit', we are not left in the dark about who gave them or why they were given to us. Dave shared that our gifts are given in alignment with the character...

  20. The Gifts of the Spirit: Rediscovering the Missing Middle

    In our context, to begin a series on the gifts of the Spirit with the gifts of the Spirit would be to assume too much. So Dave brought us right the way back to address a common blindspot in the Western Church: the spiritual world. When we ignore the spiritual world, we miss out on so much of the...

  21. Real Christianity: 3 John

    In John's third and final letter, he encourages the faithful Gaius to cultivate truth within a church that is being starved of it. It's a short letter, but builds on from what was said in the previous two letters. Dave shares about how we must be cultivating truth in our own lives if we are to…

    more
  22. Real Christianity: 2 John

    One of the ways we know that truth matters is because deception is a thing. Untruths masquerading as truth for the intention of leading people astray. In the letter of 2 John, John is warning the early church to be discerning. He wants them to recognise false teaching, refuse false teachers, and…

    more
  23. Real Christianity: 1 John

    The Apostle John is writing these letters to bring clarity and encouragement to churches under the threat of false teachings about Jesus. He gives them a brief set of tests that will not only help them discern the truth in their leaders, but also within their own hearts.

  24. The Way of the King Leads to Glory

    The Way of the King has some low lows - Jesus was brutally tortured and crucified - but his way doesn't end there. The path that Jesus was on powerfully continued, with God raising him from death, defeating sin and death and suffering, and continuing on to glory. We will all experience God's…

    more
  25. The Way of the King Reveals Hearts

    In Matthew 26 we read about the emotional few days leading upt o Christ's death. The way Matthew writes these events seems to leave us asking the question, "Is Christ enough for us?". And that's the question Dave posed to us, whether we are satisfied with Christ if he is all we receive, or…

    more
  26. The Way of the King: Anticipation

    Things are starting to heat up in Matthew 21-25, as the gap between those who believe Jesus might be the Messiah, and those who want him dead, widens. Stephen preaches from Sorell about the importance of who we say Jesus is, as we await his return.

  27. The Way of the King: The Messiah Revealed

    From chapters 16-18, Stephen Savage asks the question that Jesus asked Peter: "Who do you say that I am?" This was a pivotal moment for Peter in his own faith journey, and it is for us, too.

  28. The Way of the King... is Frustrating.

    Jesus, the most perfect human to ever walk the earth, yet divided crowds with his perfect conduct. Some marvelled at him, saw him as the Messiah, and put their faith and hope in him. But others, though they saw the same miracles, were blind to his divinity, and sought to kill him. This is the...

  29. The Way of the King: Rejection

    Before Jesus sends his 12 apostles out to proclaim the message of the kingdom, he gives them some sobering instructions. Jesus talks about their impending rejection with certain expectation, but also invites them to find rest in him from the sting of rejection.

  30. The Way of the King: The Perfect Authority of Jesus

    In Matthew 8-9, Jesus performs miracle after miracle, slowly revealing to onlookers the divine authority and power that he possessed. And whilst the miracles are many and varied, not everyone watched in awe. Dave shared some encouragements for how we can approach God with faith, and not fear,...

  31. The Way of the King: Kingdom Life

    In the first week of our new series in the gospel of Matthew, Stephen preaches on chapters 5 and 6, Jesus' sermon on the mount. Here, Jesus lays out the way attitudes of his followers if they wanted to live in his kingdom, and bring their lives into alignment with his, as the King.

  32. Jesus, the Light in the Darkness

    What do we turn to in dark times? What do we look to for hope? Is there anything that can push back the evil in our world? The Bible says there is. That hope is Jesus, the Light of the World.

  33. SB Christmas: The Top 3 Details You Need to Remember

    How well do you know the Christmas Story? Do you know all the details? Or, more importantly, do you know the right details? Because if you know these 3, it will change how you understand and experience Christmas forever.

  34. Advent: Brendan Noolan

    *Note some audio issues for the first 5 minutes* Our very own Brendan Noolan steps behind the lecturn this week to continue our Advent series, preaching on the topic of 'Waiting'.

  35. SB: Baptism Sunday

    A short encouragement for three baptisees from John 3 about why they can enter the kingdom of heaven but Nicodemus couldn't.

  36. Jonah: Don't Tell God What To Do

    The final chapter of the book of Jonah answer a lot of our questions! Why did Jonah not want to go to Nineveh? Will God really destroy them? Has Jonah's heart really changed towards the Ninevites? Dave preaches on Jonah 4 from Sorell and wraps up this amazing little book, and shows how the...

  37. Jonah: Don't Underestimate the Power of God to Transform

    Jonah's time in the fish changed his attitude towards God, but not towards the Ninevites. But that didn't stop God from sovereignly using his power to work through Jonah's (very short, quite abrupt) message to bring incredible transformation to Nineveh! In chapter 3, Dave shares that the…

    more
  38. Jonah: Don't Give Up When You Mess Up

    Dave preached from Jonah 2, where we finally see Jonah do something right! From inside the belly of the fish, he prays. His prayer is full of repentance and thanksgiving, which is quite mindblowing given the situation! His prayer invites us to consider how we respond when we mess up, and whether…

    more
  39. Jonah: Don't Run From God

    Chapter 1 of the book of Jonah sets out the premise for the story that we all know and love. It not only introduces us to Jonah, but reveals who God is, especially when we attempt to run from him and his plan. This sermon is preached by Stephen Savage at Sorell.

  40. Mission Month: Anglicare

    Bishop Chris Jones, CEO of Anglicare Tasmania, came and encouraged us to pray prayers like the tax collector, rather than the Pharisee, in the story that Jesus told in Luke 18. God fully knows us and fully loves us. And that is true for every single person on earth.

  41. Mission Month: Compassion

    Johanna van Tienen came and shared about the incredible work that Compassion does, particularly in the Philippines and Indonesia, where our sponsor children are located. Dave then shared an encouragement for us to approach Mission Month, and weeks like it, with an attitude of gaining inspiration,...

  42. Mission Month: BCA

    Josh Skeat, Regional Officer for Bush Church Aid in Tasmania, came and shared about the incredible work that BCA does in Australia by 'Aiding Churches in the Bush'. Alongside that he preached a great message from James 2, encouraging us to not only be hearers of the word but to live out our faith.

  43. Mission Month: CMS

    Scott Doran-Sargent from CMS Tasmania shares a great sermon from Philippians 2. Like Paul, Scott encouraged us to prioritise the virtues of Christ and hold onto him, so that we shine brightly in our communities.

  44. Genesis 31-36: The Transformation of Jacob

    Throughout Genesis God's faithfulness, patience, and love for Abraham and his family has been on constant display. But as we stare at the increasing messiness of Jacob's family, we are invited to wonder, 'Do they love God?' Dave unpacks these fast-paced chapters and zooms out to see how God's...

  45. Genesis 26-30: How God Responds To Our Mess

    God is making a people for himself out of the descendants of Abraham, and they couldn't be more... messy! Deception, betrayal, immorality, and sin are all becoming hallmarks of this family. The drama is everywhere! Which begs the questions, does God care, and if so, what's he going to do about it?

  46. Genesis 23-25: Becoming Heirs

    The stories of Genesis 23-25 are fascinating, but more than that, they show us who God is. And it's important that we know who our unchanging God is, because Christians are in an eternal covenant him! But the new covenant is not like the old one, we can't be born into this like Isaac could be. To...

  47. The Church is the Body of Christ

    This sermon was preached for our Parish-wide combined service, and is based on Paul's first letter to the Corinthians, where he unpacks the unity and diversity of 'the body of Christ'.

  48. Genesis 20-21: God Wants to be Involved

    There's no prize for getting through life without God, yet too often we leave reaching out to God as a last resort. Do we do this out of pride, or out of disbelief that he wants to be involved in our lives? Genesis 20-21 blows both of these reasons out of the water.

  49. Genesis 18-19 - God of Justice, Mercy, and Hope

    Many people will think they know the story of Sodom and Gomorrah. But perhaps many of us have gone away with the wrong idea. What is that story really about, what does it tell us about God, how does it forecast Jesus, and how can we apply this into our day to day lives? These are the questions…
