From death to life, from sin to salvation, God's love for us drives Him to be rich in mercy & a lavisher of grace on undeserving people. Humanity has a problem, and Jesus is the only solution. Join us as we check out what Paul had to say to the newly formed church in Ephesus.Dev Blair

We revisit the same passage as last week to pull out three salvation gems that flow from being chosen by God. To call God as Father, to be redeemed by the blood of Christ, and to have His Holy Spirit to ensure we get over the line is about as crazy wonderful as it gets!Dev Blair

God is sovereign in salvation. He chooses who He will save. Jesus said: "You did not choose me, I chose you". Ephesians 1 says: "he chose us in him, before the foundation of the world...He predestined us to be adopted...we were predestined according to the plan of the one who works out everything in agreement with the purpose of his will". But this…

The gospel reminds us that God has been incredibly generous to us! He's given us His Son and blessed us with every spiritual and material blessing we have. The gospel also compels us to be generous to other Christians in need, and other ministries in need.Chris Ekins

God determines our gender. He made us male and female and established order in the way we’re to relate to one another (based on his own nature and the way he created us). He wants us to embrace and express our gender in godly and honourable ways, without blurring the distinctions. What this looks like from culture to culture will vary, and has impl…

As the young Corinthian church finds its feet in a city that loves sin, Paul helps them once again to identify worldly living that's dominating the community. Divisions, squabbles, and disputes permeate through the small group. Taking each other to court and fighting in public bring the church into disrepute. Have a listen to how he says to shine t…

The Corinthian church were acting like babies when it came to their faith - and in this chapter, Paul says, 'enough is enough'! But, what steps should they be taking to begin growing up in their faith? Join us as Paul identifies some of their problems and helps them to see what Christlikeness looks like. --…

As Paul writes his first letter to the church in Corinth, you'd expect him to give them a bit of an uppercut. But, uniquely, he chooses first to give them a warm, brotherly hug, reminding them of their status in Christ and the grace that God has given them to live lives that are set apart for Him and His glory. --…

Paul loves writing about Jesus and the righteousness gifted through him. But, that's a Gospel truth that's under fire for the young church in Philippi. People are beginning to preach that there are other ways to be made right with God - and it's making Paul agro.Dev Blair

A few hours before Jesus is on the Cross, the Jewish & Roman authorities ask him who he is. Jesus doesn't give a direct answer - he just shows them. As he fulfils Scripture, proves he is the Suffering Servant, and takes the place of the guilty. If only the Pharisees, Herod, and Pilate would look and see who is standing in front of them rather than …

Jesus' last meal was the Passover. This was a shadow of his saving work on the cross. Jesus is the true Passover lamb, whose body was broken and blood was poured out for us. Christians now celebrate the The Lord's Supper (or Communion) to remind us that Jesus has dealt with our past, has made a new way for us to relate to God in the present, and ha…

As Jesus teaches about his kingdom, we see that none of us qualifies for entrance on our own merit. It takes sacrifice. Join us as we check out a guy that can't make the sacrifice, a Saviour that can, and what a life in light of that sacrifice is meant to look like.Dev Blair

Jesus has a go at the Pharisees for not listening to God. This, he says, will have huge & horrible consequences for them. A consequence that sees them in hell for all eternity. Jesus uses a parable to highlight the horribleness of spending eternity under God's judgement.Dev Blair

The Parable of the Dishonest Manager is a bit tricky to understand because Jesus calls us to use a dishonest guy as our role model in some ways. So what does it mean to be shrewd? How can we use our money in a way that honours God, strategically blesses other people, and is good for us?Chris Ekins

Jesus wrecked a dinner party by telling parables that exposed the hearts of both his host and the other guests. The key to working out what they mean is to understand WHY Jesus said them. And when you understand the point of his stories, they are offensive and humbling...and amazingly good news. You don't want to miss out on a seat at this table!…
