Psalm 23 is rich with promises of God's care, guidance, and faithfulness. But how we understand this familiar Psalm begins with something deeply personal: knowing the Shepherd Himself. In this message, Thomas explores the foundation of Psalm 23 and how it shapes our confidence in God's provision, His promises, and the hope of dwelling with Him. We’re reminded that the comfort this Psalm offers flows from knowing the One who leads us. Please note: Due to technical issues, the first five minutes of this recording, including the Scripture reading, were not captured.

To close our Missions Month, we were joined by guest speaker Paul Wagstaff to hear about the work of Compassion UK and the lives being transformed through child sponsorship. Through stories from Compassion’s work, we were given a glimpse of how compassion can make a lasting difference and how we can each play a part in bringing hope to children around the world.

As part of our Missions Month, we were joined by Kevin from Convoy of Hope for a message exploring what it means to play our part in God’s Kingdom. Through the picture of a Kingdom supply chain, Kevin invites us to consider how God has uniquely created each of us, why comparison can hold us back, and what it looks like to faithfully do what God has entrusted to us.

Ingrid, from Globe Mission, joined us to begin our Missions Month with a timely message about what it means to move beyond simply watching from the sidelines. Drawing from the Great Commission and the story of Elijah, she challenges us to consider how easily we can remain comfortable and silent when God is calling us to step forward. Through Scripture and personal stories, we’re reminded that obedience requires movement—and that our response can play a part in what God wants to do through His people.

What does it mean to trust God when we cannot see how everything will work out? In the final message of our Nehemiah: Rebuild, Restore, Renew series, Paul explores what it looks like to place our confidence in God and remain faithful to His purposes, even when the outcome is uncertain. Please note: Due to technical issues, the first 5–7 minutes of this message were not recorded.

What happens when we don't simply hear God's Word, but allow it to shape the way we live? In this message, Wish explores the response of God's people as they encounter Scripture, challenging us to consider whether God's Word is something we hear from a distance or something that genuinely forms and directs our lives.

When the work God has called us to feels difficult, there will always be voices and circumstances that seek to pull us away from it. In this message, Thomas explores Nehemiah 6 and the challenge of continuing faithfully when opposition comes. We’re reminded that courage isn’t the absence of fear, but choosing to trust God and remain faithful when the outcome is not yet in our hands.

What happens when the work we're building comes at the cost of the people around us? In this message, Robin explores a moment in Nehemiah where a great need demands a response from God's people. We’re reminded that what we build matters, but so does how we treat one another along the way.

Building with God is never accidental—it begins with purpose. In this message, Ruth explores what it means to build intentionally alongside God, moving beyond good intentions to embrace a faith that is purposeful, courageous, and committed to His calling.

What if prayer is about more than bringing our requests to God? In this message, Paul explores how purposeful prayer becomes the foundation for God's work in and through our lives. Looking at the opening chapters of Nehemiah, we're challenged to align our hearts with God's purposes and discover how prayer prepares us to faithfully step into what He is calling us to build.

Bringing our Spirit & Truth series to a close, Wish explores the importance of holding together God's truth and the transforming work of His Spirit. Rather than settling for a faith that is unbalanced or incomplete, we're invited into a life that is firmly rooted in God's Word and continually shaped by His presence.

Understanding Scripture begins with understanding its context. In this message, Paul returns to Jesus' words in John 4, exploring how the surrounding context enriches our understanding and deepens our response. As we look beyond the surface of the text, we're invited to move from simply knowing about God to placing our faith more fully in Him.

What does it really mean to read and live the Bible well? In this message, Alex explores Acts 2 and challenges us to see the bigger picture of what God is doing through His Word. Rather than approaching Scripture with narrow expectations, we're invited to discover a faith that is shaped by God's purposes and attentive to His voice.

In the opening message of our Spirit & Truth series, Emma explores Jesus’ conversation in John 4 and the profound invitation at the heart of true worship. More than a place we visit or a practice we perform, worship is revealed as a way of life rooted in God’s presence and shaped by relationship with Him.

In this message, Robin explores the name El Roi through the story of Hagar—a powerful reminder that God sees us in every season of life. When we feel overlooked, forgotten, or uncertain about the future, we can take comfort in knowing that God’s perspective is far greater than our own.
