Barry Forrest: Sharing with more than words
Tune in as Guest Speaker Rev Barry Forrest shares about his experiences sharing the gospel to the indigenous people this NAIDOC week.
Safe In The Care Of A Loving God
Psalm 23 contains possibly the best known and best loved verses in the whole Bible. They have been a massive comfort to millions of people, especially when going through difficult times and even death. But can we genuinely say: “The Lord is my shepherd”? Only if that is true does the rest of the Psalm really apply. But if we really do know the Lord as our Shepherd, then these truths comes to life. Let God “restore your soul” as Pastor Murray takes us through this great old Psalm in this message.
Entering God’s Rest
Following on from last week, the writer focuses on the theme of “God’s rest.” He wants us to examine the state of our hearts as we consider the nature of this rest and the way in which we enter into it.
Our Relationship With God
God is vast, immense and we cannot fully comprehend him. Yet at the same time he is intensely intimate and draws us into a relationship with him, whereby we can know and experience his presence in a personal way. Listen as Pastor Dave shares from Psalm 139 about our ultimate relationship with our Heavenly Father, the God who made us.
Beware the Hardened Heart
The Christian life is a journey that begins with an “exodus” (salvation) and leads to an “entry” (heaven), and so much can happen in between. Today’s passage sounds a sober warning of the dangers every believer faces on this journey. Just as the Israelites grumbled against God and turned away from Him in the desert on the way to the Promised Land, we can also start to doubt God when things don’t go our way in life. Before long our hearts become hardened towards Him, and rebellion and disobedience soon follow. But this doesn’t have to be the case if we heed the advice we find in this great passage!
Reclaiming Love Wrap Up: Q&A Session
Christ has given us new life and relationships are the primary context in which we live out this new life. As we wrap up our “Reclaiming Love” series, let us consider why it is so important to express, in our relationships, who we are and what we have in Christ.
Includes Q&A Panel Session
Why Hold Fast To Jesus?
Have you ever had a crisis of faith? For whatever reason, you’ve found yourself questioning your beliefs. The words of songs like “Jesus is all I need” somehow don’t ring true. The writer of Hebrews had people like this in mind when he wrote these words, particularly those who felt like giving up and turning back to their old Jewish ways. But Jesus really IS better …. so keep your keep fixing your thoughts on Jesus …. keep holding fast to Him. Through all the struggles of life Jesus is the faithful, dependable One. Don’t let go of Him. Keep persevering in your faith. He won’t let you down.
Knowing The “Right One”
While the prospect of marriage is usually very exciting, being sure about whether to propose or accept a proposal can cause a lot of anxiety. Can you really know when you’ve found the “right one”? What qualities should you be looking for? What pitfalls should you avoid? Is there a process you can follow? And where does God fit into all of this? In this message Pastor Murray shares very practically from his years of experience in dealing with young adults and preparing them for marriage.
Jesus Redeems
Jesus is our great rescuer! He came down into our situation in order that he might lift us out of it. He did what we were powerless to do, he saved us from the slavery to sin and death. He is our great high priest. Listen as Pastor Dave looks at why Jesus both redeems and transforms our humanity.
Christian Marriage
Listen as Pastor Dave explores the topic – What is Christian Marriage?
The Danger Of Drifting Away
Very few Christians suddenly decide to abandon their faith. A far greater danger is a gradual drifting away from Christ as life gets busy, distracted, hard, complicated ….. (you fill in the space!). But how does this happen? And what can we do to prevent it? In today’s message we see how the writer to the Hebrews suggests two key ways to stop this drift. Firstly, to realise just how great Jesus is. Nobody, not even angels, come close. Secondly, to appreciate just how wonderful is the salvation Jesus offers. Jesus really is the anchor for the Christian life, to keep us safe and strong in the storms of life. So how’s your relationship with Christ today?

There are so many different approaches to dating in our world. And with so many opinions and dating “strategies” out there, it can make us wonder how we should approach dating as Christians. Listen as we think about some of the biblical principles for dating as well as some of practical guidelines to help us approach dating in a way that honours God.
