  2. 258

    Faithfulness when God Seems Silent - Esther 2 - 3

    In Esther 2-3, a faithful man is overlooked, an enemy is promoted, and everything seems to be moving in the wrong direction. Yet behind the scenes, God is still at work. Join Ps Simon as we explore how God remains faithful, even when He seems silent.

  3. 257

    Running Your Race

    At our weekend away Ps Simon brings us a message Running Your Race from Hebrews 12. The scriptures bring us a way of picturing the christian life. its like a race and while we can grow weary it is worth enduring to the end to receive the prize! We will return to Esther next week.

  4. 256

    Faithfulness when God seems Silent - Esther 1

    God's name doesn't appear once in the book of Esther. But as Ps Simon shows in this opening message of Faithfulness When God Seems Silent, this doesn't mean that God is absent. Working through Esther chapters 1 and 2, we see how God is at work even through a king's foolish decisions and the unwanted circumstances of a vulnerable young woman and how we can be confident He's at work in our lives too.

  5. 255

    Right with God - Romans 8 Part 2

    What can separate us from the love of God? In this final message of our Right With God series, Ps Simon takes us to closing verses of Roman 8 - some of the most treasured words in all of Scripture - and unpacks three extraordinary promises: that the Spirit is present in your weakness, that God is working all things toward your good, and that nothing in heaven or earth can ever sever you from His love.

  6. 254

    Right with God- Romans 8

    Romans 8 is one of the most celebrated chapters in all of Scripture. Christians across the centuries have returned to these words again and again for comfort and confidence about what it means to belong to God. In this message, Ps James reminds us that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ and explores how the Holy Spirit is at work forming us into the people God is calling us to be.

  7. 253

    Right with God - Romans 7

    In Romans 7, Paul asks why the Christian life can feel like an internal tug of war - even for someone who genuinely loves God. Join us as Ps Simon walks us through this chapter and shows us that the struggle with sin isn't evidence that grace has failed - it's evidence that God is at work. And when we feel like Paul, crying out "who will free me from this?" - he points us to the same answer he found: Jesus Christ our Lord.

  8. 252

    Right with God - Romans 6

    In Romans 6, Paul confronts the question, "if grace covers our sin, why not just keep sinning?" Join us as Ps Simon walks us through this powerful chapter and shows us how the death and resurrection of Jesus hasn't just forgiven us - it has freed us from sin's ownership completely, giving us a new identity, a new power, and a new way to live.

  9. 251

    Right with God - Romans 5

    Join us today as Ps James shares from Romans 5. In that chapter we see that true joy comes, not from happy circumstances which can easily change, but from our hope in God's love and promises.

  10. 250

    Right with God - Romans 4

    In Romans 4 we discover that being right with God has never been about what we do, how religious we are, or how well we keep the rules - it's about what God credits to our account when we trust Him. Join us as Ps Simon leads us through this remarkable chapter and shows us how Abraham's story points us to the same God who, through Jesus, takes our sin and gives us His righteousness - freely, completely, and for certain.

  11. 249

Join us as Ps Simon leads us through this powerful passage and unpacks how the gospel cuts through our excuses, exposes our need, and points us to the free gift of grace received by faith.

  13. 247

    Right with God - Romans 2

    Ps James continues our series Right with God series in Romans 2, where Paul shifts the focus from others to ourselves. It's a confronting reminder that none of us are righteous on our own - but that's exactly why the gospel is good news.

  14. 246

    Right with God - Romans 1:8-17

    As we continue our series in Romans, Ps Simon leads us through Romans 1:8-17 where Paul shows us the fruit the Gospel produced in his own life - an encouraging heart, a deep love for the church, a vision for the lost, and a fearless faith.

  15. 245

    Right with God - Romans 1:1-7
