God the Hedonist
4/18/2026
As we continue our new series looking at why Jesus came to die, Pete preaches from Isaiah 53:1-12. This famous passage talks about what Jesus accomplished by dying on the cross, and God’s desire behind it. As we consider what these verses mean, Pete unpacks an uncomfortable and remarkable truth: Jesus didn’t seek to love us (humans) above all else by dying for us - he sought to love God first. We see why this is significant to who God is - and what it means for us today.

Don't Be a Pufferfish
4/18/2026
Zooming in on Hebrews 12:18 - 13:8, Tom focuses our attention on a single verse: 'keep on loving one another as brothers and sisters'. Our commitment to God's people is critical to our commitment to God, but how much do we truly act on this? Perhaps it is time to reignite our unity as one living, growing body of Christ. 00:00 Introduction 00:36 Reading 06:04 Brotherly Love 12:10 Keep On... 17:13 ...Loving One Another... 26:24 ...As Brothers And Sisters. 44:39 Closing Prayer

To Absorb the Wrath of God
4/11/2026
As we begin a new series on 50 reasons Jesus came to die, Tom preaches from Romans 3:9-31. In this passage Paul comes to his conclusion about mankind’s standing before God - silent, facing his Just wrath, and guilty of sin. However, it doesn’t end there - God’s salvation has been given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. But how is this possible? Tom unpacks the severity of our condition before a Holy God, how Jesus makes a way for us to be pardoned, and what it means for us today.

The Mountain of No Fear
4/11/2026
Expanding on Hebrews 12 with the help of Exodus 19, Rory takes us on a mountaineering expedition. Before you are two awesome mountains: one of fire and wrath and law, the other of hope and justice and mediation. Both are of God. But which one have you, believer, been called to scale?

Go for the first
4/4/2026
In this special, Pete helps us take a look at what happened to Jesus’ disciples following his resurrection and the great commission - we look at their mission, their deaths and their sharing the good news with the world - and we consider what it means in a practical sense for Jesus’ followers today.

Death is Dead, Love has Won, Christ has Conquered!
4/4/2026
He is risen! In this fortuitously timed Easter Mix, Tom shows us the importance of the resurrection in 1 Corinthians 15. If Christ is not risen, then all our preaching and practising of faith is about as useful as an inflatable hammer. But if He is - and He truly is - then we have a sure and certain hope that we too will be raised with Him in glory.

The resurrection is not fake news
3/28/2026
As we conclude our series in Matthew’s gospel, Rory preaches from Matthew 28:1-20. In this passage we take a closer look at the events surrounding Jesus’ resurrection, and we consider the simple but world-shattering truth that he has risen. He rose from the dead and gave his followers a mission - the question is, what will you do with the risen Jesus?

How Not to Sell Your Soul to the Devil
3/28/2026
Esau sold God for a bowl of soup. Would we not? Here Pete examines the link between this story in Genesis and the apostle's words in Hebrews 12: 1-17. The race is long and difficult. Shortcuts may appear in the form of deals and compromises. And yet, our Father strengthens our weak knees and lifts us up. Keep pushing forward.

Greeting from the new creation
3/21/2026
As we continue our series in Matthew’s gospel, Pete preaches from Matthew 27:57-28:15. In this passage we see the most remarkable, extraordinary, unimaginable event in all of human history - Jesus has risen! As we take a close look at this incredible scene, we see the power and love of God, the fear and joy of those who witnessed it, the tender greeting of the Messiah, and we ask what this all means for us today.

Come today, Not Tomorrow
3/21/2026
In this next step of our journey through Hebrews, Tom takes a detour through Psalm 95. This oft quoted song is an invitation, both open to all and specific to you. We need not wait until tomorrow to come and meet our creator, saviour and shepherd; we can meet him right now, while today is still called today.

The burial of the Lord
3/14/2026
Tom continues our evening series in Matthew’s gospel, preaching from Matthew 27:45-66. In this passage we take a closer look at the death and burial of Jesus - we see his amazing power of salvation in the people that come to tend to his body, the paradox of his being numbered with the wicked yet receiving royal treatment, the fear and weakness of the religious leaders, and what all of this means for us today.

Fix Your Eyes on Jesus
3/14/2026
How would you pastor a believer in distress? In this look at Hebrews 12: 1-13, Pete confronts the challenges of living as a child of God in a broken world. We all face obstacles in this world; we all suffer; but we are not alone. Our suffering saviour blazed a trail for us, working in the past and present to secure your future. Are you ready to run the race?

A death bound with iron
3/7/2026
As we continue our series in Matthew’s gospel, Tom Smith preaches from Matthew 27:45-56. In this passage we see the death of Jesus, and as Tom unpacks the deep truths of this extraordinary event, we look at what Jesus’ death means for the world and for us today.

Life in the Bridge World
3/7/2026
Taking us through the entirety of Hebrews 11, Tom addresses a common question: where on Earth does Christian confidence come from? Certainly not from Earth - or us. God has proven himself faithful in millennia past, yesterday, and today. Why not tomorrow? Faith in Him will see us through.

What do you see when you look at Jesus?
2/28/2026
Pete continues our series in Matthew’s gospel, preaching from Matthew 27:27-54, with Dean also reading Psalm 22:1-18. In this passage we delve deeper into Jesus’ crucifixion, and take a closer look at the God-man who died such a cruel, humiliating death, while also fulfilling God’s pre-determined plan to save the world through Him.

One With My Lord
2/28/2026
The Mix of March brings a wealth of encouragements as Tom shows us what it means to be one with Christ. We are not simply followers of Jesus; we are united with the body of the church with Christ as the head. Whether you are the body's hand, its foot, or its left elbow, come and meet Him today.

The strongest weightlifter of all time
2/21/2026
As we continue our evening series in Matthew’s gospel, Joshua preaches from Matthew 27:32-44. In this passage we see the crucifixion of Jesus, as he carries - with help from Simon - and is then nailed to the cross he will eventually die on. As Joshua unpacks this passage, we see the physical weight of the cross isn’t the only thing Jesus is carrying, and we consider what it means for us today.

Remember the Past; Look to the Future; Keep Going in the Now
2/21/2026
Last week brought a grave warning, but here in Hebrews 10: 19-39, Pete delivers the apostle's encouragement to those who heed it. To all who feel distant in their relationship with God, who face persecution for speaking truth, the Father offers his almighty hand. Your future is secure; stay the course.

Innocent blood
2/14/2026
Rory continues our evening series in Matthew’s gospel, preaching from Matthew 27:1-31. In this passage we see Jesus stand trial before Pilate, and the verdict reached on his fate: to crucify him. As Rory unpacks this passage of scripture, we see Jesus’ utter beauty and innocence, the guilt of the perpetrators, an unexpected but glorious outcome for the accused, and what it all means for us today.

Are You a Pig or a Sheep?
2/14/2026
Preaching to us from Hebrews 10: 19-31, Pete delivers a truly terrible warning to God's people. Is it possible for a believer to lose their salvation? What does it mean to commit apostasy? Fearful as the answers may be, the faithful should remember: the Lord's sheep know his voice; they shall never perish.
