In this message from the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus challenges us to look beyond our actions to the desires of our hearts. Exploring anger, lust and divorce, we discover that following God is about more than keeping the rules — it’s about learning to love others as God intended. Are we really wise to follow our hearts, or do we need to let Jesus transform them?

Are we serving God, or are we just trying to look good? In Matthew 6, Jesus warns us about the danger of pretending to be righteous for the sake of our reputation. Whether through our good deeds, our prayers, or even our suffering, how can we make sure we're living for God's glory rather than our own? Discover the freedom of living without a mask and resting in the grace of Jesus.

How do we respond when fear, conflict, and the sheer fragility of our world drive us to fight, manipulate, or seek revenge?
In this episode, we look back at the 14th-century mystic Julian of Norwich, who saw the entire universe as a fragile hazelnut held in the palm of God's hand—lasting only because God made it, loves it, and sustains it.
Jesus calls His followers in the Sermon on the Mount to a radical way of living that reflects this exact security:
Integrity over manipulation: Swearing oaths vs. letting your "Yes be Yes."
Creativity over retaliation: Turning the cheek and disrupting cycles of vengeance.
Radical love over hostility: Loving your enemies to reflect the complete heart of the Father.
Join us as we explore how letting go of our fear of lack allows us to move from self-preservation to kingdom love.

What does it mean to live out Jesus’ radical revolution? In this message on the Sermon on the Mount, we look at how Jesus turns worldly status upside down, calling His followers to be salt and light in a decaying world. Discover what it means to go beyond rigid rule-following and live out the heart of God’s Kingdom today.

Fresh off our journey through the book of Revelation, we begin a new series exploring the Sermon on the Mount in the Gospel of Matthew!
In this opening message, we look at how Matthew presents Jesus as a "greater Moses," bringing God’s royal instruction to His people. When Jesus goes up the mountain to speak, He announces a revolutionary shift in how the world works.
Dive in with us as we unpack the 9 Beatitudes:
The Inward Attitudes (1–4): Recognizing spiritual poverty, mourning brokenness, walking in humility, and hungering for righteousness.
The Outward Actions (5–7): Showing mercy, walking with a pure heart, and making peace.
The Kingdom Reality (8–9): Standing firm in the face of opposition and persecution.
Discover what it means to live in the upside-down kingdom that Jesus is ushering in!

As we reach the end of the book of Revelation John gives us some final reminders of what is important to get us through to the end.

What does God have in store for his people when the old creation passes away? In Revelation 21, John gives us a breathtaking vision of a new heaven and a new earth—a place where God dwells with his people, death and suffering are gone, and creation itself is renewed. Through the imagery of the New Jerusalem, the Temple, Eden and the tree of life, we discover that God's plan isn't to abandon creation, but to make all things new. And this hope isn't just about the future—it calls us to faithfulness today.

Revelation 20 brings us face-to-face with the millennium, final judgement, and the end of all things. In this sermon we explore the three major views of the millennium before turning to the sobering reality that every person will one day stand before God. When the costumes come off and all pretending ends, where will we place our trust? The good news is that salvation is found not in our own goodness, but in Jesus, the slain Lamb.

What happens when the kingdoms built on power, wealth, deception and oppression finally meet the justice of God? In Revelation 19, Babylon falls, God’s people are revealed as the bride of Christ, and Jesus appears as the true King of Kings and Lord of Lords. This sermon explores the hope that evil will not have the final word, that God will vindicate his people, and that one day we will feast with the Lamb.

In Revelation 17–18, John is shown Babylon the Great—a seductive and powerful counterfeit kingdom that promises money, pleasure and power, yet ultimately destroys itself. What can Babylon teach us about the ways our own culture can lure us away from God? And where should we place our hope when the kingdoms of this world seem so powerful? Join us as we discover that Babylon may entice, astonish and frighten—but the Lamb will conquer.
