Move Church

In Matthew 5:1–16, Guy Brown looks at the third Beatitude and what it means to follow Jesus in everyday life.

When everything in life becomes unstable, the greatest need is not immediate answers, but a heart anchored in God. In 1 Samuel 30, David models this by strengthening himself in the Lord before seeking direction, showing that stability begins internally before it moves outward. Ultimately, this points to Christ, who secured an unshakable foundation for us, so that even in uncertainty, we can stand firm in Him.

In today’s sermon, guest speaker Tom Bourne focused on the hope we have in Christ alone. Drawing from 1 Peter 1, he explored the distinguishing marks of true hope compared to false hope, helping us see where our confidence is meant to rest.

This Sunday, guest speaker Derek Miedema delivered a sermon titled “If You’ve Seen Jesus, You’ve Seen the Father” based on John 14:8–11.

This message focuses on the reality of the resurrection and what it means for us personally. The empty tomb is not just an event to believe in, but the declaration that sin has been paid for and death has been defeated. Because we are united with Christ, His resurrection becomes our life. The central question is: Can we trust God when we cannot see clearly? Easter answers that question by showing us that God is already ahead of us, and that our lives are moving toward life, not loss.

The cross stands at the center of all history, where Jesus Christ willingly gave His life as a substitute, bearing our sin so that we might be forgiven and made right with God. Through His sacrifice, the barrier between God and humanity is removed, justice is fully satisfied, and access to God is now freely given, not earned. In response, we remember, receive, and proclaim this grace, trusting in Christ alone, who paid the full price so that we might have life.

This Sunday, guest speaker Kevin Hogan shared a message on what it truly means to know God—not just know about Him, but to experience a personal, relational connection through Jesus Christ. Kevin helped us see how the Bible, the Holy Spirit, prayer, a life of trusting God, and the church all guide us in growing closer to Him.

Today’s guest speaker, Ahren Summach, spoke about the realities of the Christian faith as Jesus expressed them in the later portion of the Sermon on the Mount. Using Matthew 7:13–27 as his foundation, Ahren examined the essential truths that every Christian—whether a layperson or a shepherd—must be aware of and live by.

Pastor Chad closes his time at the church by sharing the message God put on his heart for this final sermon.

In Pastor Chad's, penultimate sermon, he explored the internal threats to Jesus' Church.

Continuing in the According to His Purpose series, Andrew Martin turns our attention to the book of Deuteronomy. This sermon introduces Deuteronomy as a threshold book, given to God’s people as they stand between what has been and what lies ahead. The focus is on biblical remembering, not nostalgia, but living faithfully by remembering who God is, what He has done, and how He forms His people, especially in seasons of transition. The sermon will focus on God’s faithful presence: the God who has

This Sunday, Pastor Chad addressed the external opposition facing the Church, highlighting three key areas: the misuse of the separation of church and state, the dangers of socialism, and the threat posed by Islam.

This week in our sermon series 'According to His Purpose', Pastor Chad teaches on the story of Balak and Balaam from Numbers 22-25 and reminds us that while we face external enemies that will come against Jesus' church, the greatest threat to Jesus' church is not external, it is internal, when God's people concede ground to lies and immorality in their own hearts.

As we continue our sermon series 'According to His Purpose', this week Pastor Chad teaches on the story of the bronze serpent from Numbers 21. God offers his rebellious people a cure and all they have to do is look upon it to live. Jesus teaches, the bronze serpent was a foreshadowing of what He would do on the cross. Look to Jesus and live.

Continuing in our sermon series According to His Purpose, Pastor Chad walks us through Leviticus 26:14–46, exploring the heart and intention of the Lord behind His discipline. This passage helps us understand what we should expect from God and how His faithfulness is experienced through His discipline.

Continuing in the According to His Purpose sermon series, Ali Mahmoud walks us through Leviticus 19 to explore God’s call to holiness: “Be holy, for I the LORD your God am holy.” This sermon reveals that holiness is not merely about rules, but about being set apart for God’s purpose by offering Him our best, loving our neighbor with generosity and justice, and resisting the influence of the world. At its heart, the message reminds us that true holiness flows from a transformed heart in Christ an

Christmas proclaims the astonishing truth that God came near. In Jesus, the eternal Son of God entered our world, not from a distance, but as Immanuel, God with us. Matthew announces His name, John tells us the Word “became flesh and dwelt among us,” and Philippians reveals the breathtaking humility behind it all. Jesus willingly stepped down from heaven’s glory, taking on human weakness, limitation, and suffering. He who was worshiped by angels became a helpless baby in a manger. He who spoke

On the fourth Sunday of Advent, Mike Robinson shared a message on love, focusing on how God showed His love by sending Jesus at Christmas.

This Sunday, Doug Sprunt continued our Advent series, The Arrival, focusing on Joy and Romans 15:13.

In today’s sermon, Ali Mahmoud continues our Advent series The Arrival by exploring Jesus as our Prince of Peace. Looking at Israel’s encounter with God in Exodus, we see how every symbol points to Christ and the peace only He can give. This message calls us to rest in God’s presence and trust His promises.

This Sunday, Josh Clarke kicked off our Advent series “The Arrival.” Throughout this season, we’ll reflect on the hope, peace, joy, and love that come to us through Christ. Josh opened the series by exploring the theme of Hope, teaching from Psalm 131:1–3.

In the continuation of the sermon series According to His Purpose, Andrew Martin teaches from Exodus 3, where God reveals Himself to Moses not with a title or description, but with His very being: “I AM WHO I AM.” Moses learns that knowing who God is — eternal, faithful, unchanging — is the foundation for trusting what God says. And when we face fear, uncertainty, or weakness, God’s answer remains the same: “I am the God who is — and that is enough.”

Continuing in the According to His Purpose sermon series, Andrew Martin focuses on Genesis 43, where Jacob, his sons, and Joseph each face a crossroads between fear and faith. Through loss, guilt, and uncertainty, God uses painful circumstances to move His people from clinging to control toward trusting His promises. This message calls us to take that same next step of faith—letting go of what we hold too tightly and believing that God’s grace and plan can be trusted, even when we can’t see the

In today’s sermon, Ali Mahmoud continues our According to His Purpose series, reminding us that the Bible isn’t about us—it’s about God’s faithfulness and redemption through Jesus. Through the lives of Jacob, David, and Paul, we see that even in human weakness, God’s strength and purpose shine through. Our hope and story are found not in what we do, but in who He is and what He has done. Genesis 35:9–12

In the continuation of the sermon series According to His Purpose, Josh Clarke spoke on the final chapters of the book of Job where God responds to Job. Josh highlighted how God is Sovereign over all of creation, and how we are simply called to trust Him - even when our circumstances don't make sense.

Continuing in the sermon series According to His Purpose, Josh Clarke explored the theme of wisdom through the lens of the book of Job. He contrasted earthly wisdom—limited and self-reliant—with true wisdom, which begins with a deep reverence and fear of God.

Continuing the According to His Purpose sermon series and following the two-year Bible reading plan, Josh Clarke takes us into the book of Job. He provides an overview of the book — highlighting both its details and its intentional lack of details — and offers insight on how to approach reading it. From there, he narrows in on Job chapters 1 and 2.

This Sunday, Andrew Martin launched our new sermon series, According to His Purpose, which follows along with the two-year Bible reading plan. Fittingly, he began at the very beginning—in Genesis—laying the foundation for understanding God’s purpose from creation onward. Genesis 1-3

In today’s sermon, Pastor Chad concludes our Hebrews series by walking through the final chapter. In Hebrews 13, the writer closes the letter with practical and moral advice and exhortations on how to live. Pastor Chad uses these exhortations to leave the congregation with a parting encouragement before beginning his sabbatical.

In the continuation of the Hebrews series, Pastor Chad delved into the reality of suffering that a Christian will experience, showing from Hebrews 12:1-11 how God uses it to strengthen our faith and draw us closer to Him.

In week # 17 of our series through Hebrews, Pastor Chad takes us through Hebrews 11, looking at the definition of faith the writer gives in Hebrews 11:1 and the examples of the men and women of faith from the past who experienced extraordinary things and persevered through challenging situations, by faith as the writer uses their testimonies to encourage his readers in their own faith.

This week, in our Hebrews series, Pastor Chad takes us through Hebrews 10:19-39 where the writer of Hebrews gives us three exhortations, one warning and one reminder to persevere in faith all with the aim of encouraging us to draw near to God through Jesus Christ with full confidence because of what Jesus has accomplished on our behalf.

This Sunday, as we continue through the book of Hebrews, Pastor Chad teaches on Hebrews 9 and 10 where the writer of Hebrews encourages us that we have a better covenant through Jesus Christ, because through Christ, we always have an open invitation to approach God; and this is what we need, for our hearts to be set on the one who created us.

This Sunday, in our Hebrews series, Pastor Chad unpacks the challenging passage of Hebrews 6:4–6, exploring two key perspectives—one that suggests salvation can be lost, and another that affirms its eternal security. It’s an uncomfortable yet vital text that pushes us to wrestle with what we believe about salvation and God’s enduring grace.

As we continue our series in Hebrews, Ali Mahmoud shares a powerful message titled "What Is Your Assurance?" Through personal testimony and Scripture, Ali invites us to consider how God moves us from self-reliance to full dependence on Him. True assurance grows not from our strength, but from trusting in the finished work of Jesus and abiding in Him daily. Hebrews 10:19-23

In today’s sermon, Pastor Chad focused on Hebrews 5:11-6:3 where the author highlighted the need for the believer to mature in faith. As believers, if we read and hear God’s Word, but don’t apply it to our lives, then we risk hardening our hearts. Only by hearing God’s Word and applying it can we mature in our faith.

Continuing our Hebrews series, 'Jesus: Heard Because of His Reverence' (Hebrews 5:5–10), Pastor Chad explores how Jesus, our Saviour, can relate to us—having received a hard answer to His prayers from His Father. As God’s children, we often struggle when our prayers go unanswered, wondering if God hears us or cares. But just as Jesus trusted His Father’s goodness, we’re reminded that God always gives good gifts—even when they come in ways we don’t expect.

In today’s sermon, Pastor Chad continues our Hebrews series by exploring how true rest is only found when we come fully exposed before God. Drawing from Hebrews 4:13–16, we’re reminded that while our sin is laid bare before Him, we have a great High Priest who invites us to approach the throne with confidence. In Christ, we are both fully known and fully forgiven—and only then can we experience the deep, lasting rest our souls long for.

In the continuation of the Hebrews series (Hebrews 4:1-11), Pastor Chad explores the essential role of rest for our physical, mental, and spiritual health. God offers us a deep, lasting rest that refreshes our whole being and sustains us, but this promise won’t last forever—we must be sure to enter His rest while it’s still available.

As we continue our series in Hebrews, Pastor Chad examined Hebrews 3:7–19 this morning, reminding us that we are the house of God—His sons and daughters—if we persevere in trusting Him. True faith requires endurance through hardship and trials; it is by persevering that we affirm we truly belong to God. Scripture offers a sobering warning: some appear to go in and out of the house, but only those who remain show genuine faith. There’s a difference between seasons of struggle or doubt and a heart

In the continuation of the Hebrews series, Pastor Chad preached on Chapter 3, verses 1–6, which focus on Jesus being greater than Moses. While Moses was faithful as a servant in God’s house, Jesus is exalted as the Son over God’s house—worthy of greater honour and our full devotion.

In the continuation of our Hebrews series, Pastor Chad explored the profound truth of the incarnation—that Jesus is both fully God and fully man; He took on human nature while still remaining divine. Hebrews 2:17–18

In today’s sermon, we explore the wonder of a God who is both majestic and near—exalted above all, yet not removed from our pain. Jesus took on flesh, walked among us, and faced real suffering, making Him a God who understands. This brings deep encouragement and hope as we relate to a God who relates to us. Hebrews 2:5-15

In the second week of our series in Hebrews, Pastor Chad explains the pattern the writer uses—first laying out deep spiritual truths, then offering a warning in response. In Hebrews 2:1–4, the warning is that we must not neglect salvation. This is the urgent warning we explored together today.

This Sunday, Pastor Chad started a new sermon series based on Hebrews titled 'Jesus > Everything.' The inaugural sermon of the series centered on Hebrews 1:1-4.

This Easter Sunday, Pastor Chad concluded the sermon series, VII: A Study in the Book of Revelation by exploring the hope we have in Jesus Christ and the urgency for His followers to share the good news. Revelation 22:12–17

This Good Friday, in line with our Revelation series, we reflect on the powerful sacrifice of Jesus, who defeated death and sin.

In this Palm Sunday message, Ali Mahmoud explores Revelation 19:11–21 and several other passages, highlighting the contrast between Jesus entering Jerusalem meek and mild on a donkey, and His future return on a white horse to judge and make war. A powerful reminder of God’s greatness and Christ’s ultimate victory.

This Sunday, Erhan D'Silva continued our Revelation series with a message from chapters 15 and 16, unpacking the sobering imagery of the seven bowls and what they reveal about God’s justice, holiness, and ultimate plan for redemption.

As we continue exploring Revelation, we’re focusing on the ongoing conflict between the world and Jesus’ Church. In Revelation 12 and 13, John reveals the spiritual forces behind persecution, the rise of worldly powers against the Church, and the endurance required of believers. These chapters give a deeper understanding of the battle at hand while assuring us of God’s ultimate victory.
