This sermon was given by Phil Hopgood, who thoughtfully unpacks Exodus 21. Phil reminds us that some of the topics and laws found in the Bible are genuinely challenging and require believers to wrestle with God's heart towards His people. He encourages us not to shy away from difficult questions, reminding us that wrestling with and questioning God's Word is okay. As believers, we are called to consider the historical context and what Jesus teaches about the laws given in the Old Testament. Phil also makes it clear that when these laws seem mysterious or difficult to understand, we should look to God and His character. In doing so, we can find greater clarity, peace, and a deeper understanding of the God we serve.

This sermon was delivered by Lally Wood, who speaks about the Ten Commandments and how they should be applied in our daily lives. Lally reminds us that the Ten Commandments remain just as relevant for believers today. Because they are so familiar, it can be easy to overlook their significance or dismiss them as simply part of the Old Testament law. However, as followers of Christ, we are encouraged to take time to reflect on each commandment, consider its fulfilment and application in the New Testament, and understand how God continues to use them to guide us in living righteous and faithful lives.

In this sermon, Owen Hylton encourages us to consider how we worship the Lord. He speaks about what it means for believers to worship God and emphasises that our acts of worship do not earn us acceptance before Him. Instead of either trying to keep the law in our own strength or abusing the grace given through the cross, we are called to look to God and trust in Him.

The sermon was delivered by Frank Ocampo, who challenged us to reflect on our community and the way we pray for it, particularly regarding the decisions made within the church and in our wider workplaces and society. Drawing on the account of Moses and his father-in-law, Jethro, Frank explored Jethro’s advice for Moses to seek support from others while continuing to pray for the people, asking God to raise up individuals with wisdom and discernment. Frank emphasised the importance of not only praying for our leaders to make wise and sound decisions, but also standing as intercessors for those who do not yet know Christ. He encouraged us to recognise our responsibility to pray faithfully for both our communities and those whom God is calling to Himself.

This week’s sermon was brought to us by guest speaker Sarah Gelli. Sarah spoke about the seasons in our lives when we find ourselves in the wilderness, struggling to understand the journey God is leading us on as believers. She also spoke about the importance of not relying on our own strength, but instead looking to Jesus, who not only carries our every care but has paid it all through His sacrifice on the cross. Sarah encouraged us to continue walking faithfully with God, even when the journey does not make sense. While we may not understand His plans right now, God is faithful and will bring all things to completion in His perfect timing. -

This sermon was given by Phil Hopgood, who speaks about the significance of the Passover and how it foreshadows the death and resurrection of Jesus. Phil reminds us that the blood and water that cover and cleanse us still work, no matter our circumstances. As believers, we can sometimes think that the blood does not remain, but no matter what may come or how we feel, we can come to the cross because the blood still works and remains

This week, Matthew DaCosta continues exploring the remaining plagues, explaining how the Egyptians worshipped and how God of the Israelites displayed His power through great wonders. He highlights how God provided for, sustained, and protected the Israelites in many ways. Matthew reminds us that God should be the Lord and Saviour of our lives. Anything we place above Him becomes an idol, taking the place where He alone should reside. To truly make God our Lord and Saviour, we must repent, surrender, and trust in Him, recognising that He is everything to and for us.

This sermon by Matthew DaCosta challenges us to consider who we truly depend on. Reflecting on the plagues in Exodus, he shows how they revealed God as the true source of life, calling us to fix our eyes on Jesus. Matthew encourages believers to examine what we rely on instead of God, the author and finisher of our faith, and to surrender our hearts to Him even when we are tempted to go our own way. He also invites the church to reflect on the rituals, actions, and traditions we may elevate above God, rather than giving Him our whole heart.

This week’s sermon was given by Owen Hylton, who returned to the book of Exodus, chapter 6, highlighting the challenges faced by the Israelites and the call to obedience. Although Moses follows God’s direction, his weakness reminds us as believers that our weaknesses can be a good thing, as they lead us to press on with God and recognise that we cannot do it in our own strength. Moses encourages the church to see that through obedience we become dependent on God, not on ourselves, offering a powerful reminder of our human limitations.

This sermon was delivered by Daniel Featherstone on Easter Sunday, exploring the question of where our true hope for the future lies. Daniel reflects on how easily we can place our hope in temporary, worldly things—such as money, careers, and personal success. Yet he gently reminds us that these things do not last. Instead, he encourages us to anchor our hope in Jesus Christ. While everything else may fade, Christ remains constant. As believers, we are called to hold firmly to Him—our Living Hope—who rose from the dead not only to redeem us, but also to offer us the promise of eternal life in Him.

This week’s sermon was given by Raj Saha, pastor at Jubilee Church Teesside, on the theme of the “journey of descent.” Raj explained that before God elevates a person, He often leads them through a season of descent—a time of humbling, often marked by suffering and pain. Although this season can be difficult, it is not without purpose. He reminded us that God is not distant in our struggles; He is with us and fully understands. This is because God Himself came down from heaven and entered into human experience, enduring pain and suffering and ultimately bearing it on the cross. Raj encouraged us to remember that God is victorious. Whatever we may be experiencing now is only for a season, made certain by the finished work of the cross.

This sermon is brought to you by Owen Hylton, who speaks on the importance of believing in Jesus. Owen reaches out to those who are strong in their faith, those who feel lost, and those who have drifted away. He reminds the church that life with Jesus means holding on to the One who is the author and finisher of our faith. When the world tosses us back and forth, we can stand firm, trusting and relying on Him. For this reason, whether you have walked in faith before or have never known it, Owen encourages every heart to come to the cross.

This week, Owen Hylton explores the importance of turning aside. Owen examines the challenges we may face when we are called to our purpose. Owen reminds us that being called does not mean giving up easily, nor does it mean becoming boastful. Instead, we are invited to humble ourselves in obedience to God and to recognise our complete dependence on Him. Total surrender means trusting that it is God who accomplishes the work — not our own effort or strength. We do not strive in our own ability; rather, we learn to do things God’s way.

This sermon was given by Frank Ocampo and invites reflection on our attitudes towards serving the church and others. Through the Bible and everyday life, Frank shows that serving can be a challenge, but he points to Jesus, who served his community and even his enemies. He explains that serving wholeheartedly means being selfless, which is understood more deeply through an intimate relationship with Jesus, who shows us how to love, forgive, and be like him. If our posture is for selfish gain, then we are not serving wholeheartedly, and this must be brought to the Lord. -
This sermon was given by Elisha DaCosta, who teaches us the importance and true value of attending church and gathering together. Elisha makes it clear that it is good for us to come and dwell together, as God desires this for His people. Gathering together can be challenging, as we can be driven by emotions, but making the conscious choice to attend and gather with the church means that it is fruitful. It is at church that we are encouraged, taught, and reminded of God’s promises; furthermore, we build relationships and grow in our knowledge of God and one another.
