We have often found ourselves chasing "mountaintop experiences," those high-energy moments of spiritual euphoria, only to realize that the true beauty of faith lies in a steady, daily walk with Jesus. In our journey through the shifting seasons of life—the laughter, the mourning, the building, and the tearing down—it is easy to mistake our changing emotions for God's distance. However, we’ve learned that while our feelings are often like shifting smoke or vapor, Jesus remains the same yesterday, today, and forever. By cultivating a "secret place" of quiet intimacy, anchoring ourselves in the truth of Scripture rather than our fleeting moods, and learning the raw honesty of lament, we can maintain a consistent connection with the Father. Ultimately, we were created to walk with Him in the "cool of the day," discovering that His presence isn't just for the highlights, but for every ordinary moment in between.Referenced Scriptures:* Ecclesiastes 3:1–13* Joel 2:12–13* Psalm 91:1–2* Romans 12:15* Isaiah 41:10* Psalm 23:4* Psalm 46:1* Psalm 118:6* John 14:27* Deuteronomy 31:6* Psalm 13* John 1:12* Genesis 3:8

In this message we are invited to explore the shifting landscapes of our spiritual lives through the lens of Psalm 63, recognizing that our walk with God is less like a fleeting crop and more like a maturing fruit tree that grows stronger through every cycle. Whether we find ourselves in a "desert season" characterized by thirst and a need for clarity, a "sanctuary season" where we must invest the surplus of God’s visible blessings, a "dark season" of quiet, lonely battles, or a "season of victory" where we stand against the enemy’s lies, the constant remains God’s unwavering presence. By reflecting on the resilience of figures like Mary, Hagar, and even modern-day spiritual mothers, we learn that seeking God is not reserved for the easy times but is a vital, daily commitment to turning our worries into worship. Ultimately, when we anchor ourselves in the truth of who He is, we become like trees planted by streams of water—steadfast, fruitful, and deeply known by the God who sees us in every circumstance.Referenced Scriptures:* Psalm 63* Luke 1 (The Magnificat)* Genesis 16* Genesis 21* Psalm 1:1–3

In reflecting on Jesus’ profound declaration in John 6, Pastor Carl is struck by the invitation to move beyond a life of mere existence—bios—into the vibrant, quality life of zoe that only He provides. Throughout our week, it is so easy to chase after "bread that spoils," exhausting ourselves for material security or external recognition that ultimately fails to satisfy our deepest cravings. Even our religious efforts and "works" can become a form of manna that we try to hoard, missing the heart of the Gospel: that God’s grace is a gift to be received through faith, not a wage to be earned. Jesus identifies Himself as the Bread of Life, urging us to move beyond the transactional and into a personal relationship where we find our nourishment in His presence, His word, and His sacrifice. My prayer for us is that we would stop asking what we must "do" and instead lean into the one who has already given His life for the world, discovering that He is truly more than enough for every hunger of our souls.Referenced Scriptures:Zephaniah 3:17Psalm 84Exodus 16:20Matthew 4:4John 4:34John 6:26-27John 6:28John 6:32John 6:35John 6:47-51John 6:53-59John 6:60John 6:68John 12John 15Ephesians 2:8-9

In this message, we explore the profound truth that our faith is often forged not on the mountaintops of miraculous provision, but in the dark, exhausting stretches of life’s storms. Drawing from the account of Jesus walking on the water in John 6, we are reminded that Jesus sometimes purposefully sends us into difficult seasons—not to abandon us, but to stretch our spiritual muscles and challenge our limited comprehension of who He truly is. We see that when we reach the end of our own strength, having rowed until we are completely spent, Jesus reveals Himself as the great "I Am," transcending our natural paradigms and proving He is bigger than any circumstance we face. Pastor Carl's heart’s desire for us is that we would not just admire Him from a distance or hold Him at arm's length, but willingly invite Him into the very boat of our lives, trusting that His presence transforms our journey and immediately brings us to the destination He has appointed for us.Referenced Scriptures:Psalm 40John 6:1-15John 6:16-21Psalm 23Exodus 3Psalm 107

Susan Elsmore explores the biblical story of Jesus healing a paralyzed man at the pool of Bethesda. She uses this narrative to illustrate how Christ offers restoration for the body, mind, and spirit, specifically addressing those who feel "stuck" in life or disconnected from God.Referenced Scriptures:John 5:1-14Romans 12:2Revelation 5:12Revelation 21:42 Corinthians 9:7

On Easter Sunday, Carl invites us to behold the King - to truly look, see, and focus our attention on Jesus. In this message from John 20, we discover that Jesus is not just any king, but the Risen King and that we get to celebrate Easter Sunday every Sunday. _____If you need prayer, we're here for you.

The sermon delivered on Palm Sunday examined the profound implications of encountering Jesus Christ, specifically through the narrative of the healing of the man born blind as recorded in the Gospel of John. The discourse posited that biblical encounters function as both historical records and theological frameworks, intended to facilitate a contemporary living encounter with the Divine. Central to this message was the assertion that Jesus acts as the primary initiator; just as the blind man could not perceive Christ without Christ first approaching him, humanity requires a divine revelation to overcome spiritual blindness. Furthermore, the speaker addressed the complexities of human suffering, suggesting that rather than seeking to assign blame for tragedy, believers should view Christ as a Redeemer who imbues pain with purpose. This was exemplified by the transformative power of forgiveness demonstrated by the Abdallah family, whose decision to entrust their grief to God led to widespread spiritual restoration. The sermon also highlighted Jesus’ role as a "Remaker" of creation, drawing a parallel between the use of dust in the miraculous healing and the original creation of humanity in Genesis to show that God seeks to restore, rather than discard, what is broken. Ultimately, the message concluded with a dual observation: a warning against the spiritual blindness that results from repeatedly rejecting divine initiative, and an encouragement that an encounter with God requires only a singular, incremental step of faith.Referenced ScripturesMark 11:8-10John 9:1-12Genesis 2:7

Through His first miraculous sign of turning water into wine at the wedding in Cana, Jesus revealed His glory to demonstrate that He has come to replace old religious rituals with the abundance of grace and the promise of everlasting joy in His eternal kingdom.Referenced Scriptures:Isaiah 55:8-11: God’s ways and thoughts being higher than our own.Matthew 6:9-13: The Lord’s Prayer ("Your kingdom come, your will be done").John 2:1-11: The wedding at Cana and the first of Jesus' signs.Revelation 19:9: The invitation to the wedding supper of the Lamb.John 3:29: John the Baptist speaking of the bridegroom and the joy of his voice.Amos 9:13: Prophecy of new wine dripping from the mountains.Isaiah 25:6: The prophecy of the Lord preparing a feast of rich food and aged wine.Matthew 22:11-13: The parable regarding the necessity of wearing proper wedding clothes.2 Corinthians 5:17: The old has gone and the new has come.John 13:1: Jesus knowing his hour had come to leave the world.John 1:17: The law given through Moses versus grace and truth through Jesus Christ.John 3:16: God’s love for the world and the invitation to eternal life through his Son.Hebrews 12:2: For the joy set before him, Jesus endured the cross.John 15:11: Jesus' desire for his followers to have joy to the full.

Senior Pastor Jason Elsmore centers on the Gospel of John, specifically analyzing the late-night meeting between Jesus and Nicodemus. He emphasizes the necessity of being "born again" and that spiritual renewal comes through divine grace rather than human effort or religious legalism.

Hamish explores Psalm 127, contrasting a self-directed life—marked by restless striving—with a God centered life that offers genuine peace. Through personal stories, including mowing lawns and meeting his wife’s brothers, he shows how biblical images of family and heritage highlight God as our true provider. He reminds listeners that through Jesus, everyone is welcomed into a spiritual family that brings comfort in anxious seasons. Hamish closes by sharing his brother’s journey as an example of how trusting God brings transformation, followed by a communal prayer and an invitation to connect with a faith community.________________________ If you need prayer, we're here for you.

The promise of an eternal kingdom ruled by a royal descendant was not a small promise, but a foundational one that shaped the hope of a nation. They saw many kings come and go through the generations that failed to worship God and rule with justice. Instead, they worshipped manmade idols and used their power to crush the powerless. Sadly, as their kings turned awayfrom God, so did the people they ruled. Despite the unfaithfulness of the people, God was faithful to His promise to send a baby born in a manger but worshipped by the kings of the earth. ________________________ If you need prayer, we're here for you.

Since the very beginning, we have been a community that has known the call to be a lighthouse in the city. In our words and in our actions, we have sought to be faithful to the command of Christ to shine a light. Having a place in the heart of the city to proclaim the truth of Jesus practically share the love of Christ through care and hospitality (e.g. care ministries and international ministries) has been central to our existence. And our deepest desire is that this will only continue to grow as we seek to meet the growing practical and spiritual needs of Brisbane. -----------Gateway Baptist Church meets across six locations in South-East Queensland and online.For over 90 years, we've been committed to guiding people to become fully devoted followers of Jesus.Learn more about us at ⁠⁠https://gatewaybaptist.com.au⁠⁠ or join us on Sundays at ⁠gtwy.au/live

God has called us as his people to invest our very lives into the heart of the city. In a context where others are transient and transactional, we have been called to live our lives, raise up the next generations, buy homes and find work in and around the city. Our presence matters deeply, because we bring the presence of God. In our workplaces. In our schools and universities. In the restaurants and shopping malls. On the streets. Our presence causes the city to prosper. Our commitment to be a permanent presence in the city matters deeply. As we make the commitment to live and share our lives in the city, we are proclaiming the life-giving good news of Jesus.-----------Gateway Baptist Church meets across six locations in South-East Queensland and online.For over 90 years, we've been committed to guiding people to become fully devoted followers of Jesus.Learn more about us at ⁠https://gatewaybaptist.com.au⁠ or join us on Sundays at ⁠gtwy.au/live

Writing to a church struggling under powerful forces, the last thing that you would imagine worthy of worship is a lamb! But that is exactly what is presented in John’s vision. Again, utilizing this rich metaphor that is replete throughout Scripture, Johnpresents a lamb slain that makes a way for the scroll to be opened. What is this scroll? The book of life that records all names of those who are God’s people. It is the death of the Lamb that makes a way for ‘persons from every tribe and language and people and nation’. This picture sets up a scene of absolute adoration, worship and praise. The death of Jesus has made a way. He is deserving of our worship.--------Gateway Baptist Church meets across six locations in South-East Queensland and online.For over 90 years, we've been committed to guiding people to become fully devoted followers of Jesus.Learn more about us at ⁠⁠https://gatewaybaptist.com.au⁠⁠ or join us on Sundays at ⁠gtwy.au/live

We find in the early chapters that John’s Apocalypse is a letter that is written to seven churches in Asia Minor, but also a letter to be read aloud for all (and all are blessed in reading 1:3). Indeed, these are words of encouragement and challenge from Jesus himself. The call is for the Church, the Bride (19:7-8), to remain pure in the context of temptation and persecution, and to ultimately be victorious (5:5-6). The church in the Roman empire was under intense pressure. The emperors (e.g. Domitian, Nero) demanded absolute and singular worship. To not declare ‘Caesar as Lord’ carried with it terrible physical, social and economic consequences. This was a question of ultimate allegiance: worship the Christian God or worship the Roman cult.---------Gateway Baptist Church meets across six locations in South-East Queensland and online.For over 90 years, we've been committed to guiding people to become fully devoted followers of Jesus.Learn more about us at ⁠https://gatewaybaptist.com.au⁠ or join us on Sundays at ⁠gtwy.au/live

Revelation has possibly become the most discussed and speculated on, if not the most controversial, of all books in the Bible. This is not that surprising, considering the incrediblyabstract literary images that are contained in this wonderful piece of writing. A four-week teaching series is not going to come close to answer all the questions that could be addressed, but what we can do is focus on the key characters and themes that we can find in this powerful book.  Firstly, it is helpful to understand that Revelation is a mix of literary styles. It is a prophetic text following in the tradition of Old Testament prophets, it is an apocalyptic work full of symbolic imagery,and it is a situational letter written to a group of people living within the historical and societal context of the Roman Empire.-------Gateway Baptist Church meets across six locations in South-East Queensland and online.For over 90 years, we've been committed to guiding people to become fully devoted followers of Jesus.Learn more about us at ⁠https://gatewaybaptist.com.au⁠ or join us on Sundays at ⁠gtwy.au/live

Every day, your thoughts are shaping the direction and quality of your life, whether you realise it or not. In this message, Derek Peters tackles one of the most important and often overlooked parts of your spiritual journey - your thinking. Together we'll look at scripture to see how the enemy uses lies to build strongholds in our minds such as false beliefs that hold us back from living as loved, free, and secure sons and daughters of God.If you’ve ever felt stuck in patterns of shame, fear, or self-doubt, this message is for you. Discover how to recognise the lies, replace them with truth, and begin thinking in a way that aligns with who God says you are. Because when your thinking changes, everything changes.If you need prayer, we're here for you.
