To The Core - Family: God The Builder

We finalise our current series this week on our core value, Family. Pastor Neli highlights in Psalms 127, the next generation is the now generation. The church is not a building, it is us, our family and spiritual family and whether it's our children or our disciples, unless God is building what we're doing in life we are wasting our time.

Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.
Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain.
- Psalms 127:1 (ESV)

To The Core - The Cost Of Discipleship

We continue our series on "To The Core" with this week about Discipleship. Join us today as Pastor Neli breaks down the cost of discipleship and our effectiveness as we grow in our journey with Christ. We reflect on the Book of Luke and compare the examples of Jesus to the cost of following Him. We must consider this; discipleship is more interested in building strong selfless Christians than it is about attracting crowds.

“If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple.
- Luke 14:26 (ESV)

To the Core - Wake me up Inside

In week 3 of the 'To the Core' series we welcome back Paster Neli as he brings 'Wake Me Up Inside.' Outreach must be rooted in compassion, not performance.

Then he went up and touched the bier they were carrying him on, and the bearers stood still. He said, “Young man, I say to you, get up!” ¹⁵ The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother. They were all filled with awe and praised God. “A great prophet has appeared among us,” they said. “God has come to help his people.” Luke 7 14-16

Get In Shape - Hello From The Other Side

Week two in our new series, Get In Shape.  Pastor Neli preaches from the Book of Mark and compares our faithful walk with God to having a cell phone.  You can't receive a message from Heaven clearly unless you have a connection i.e you were born again.  You signal will be the strongest when you walk united in the Spirit of God.  If you're not walking with the power of the Holy Spirit you're going to miss what he's wanting to say to you

So that “‘they may indeed see but not perceive, and may indeed hear but not understand, lest they should turn and be forgiven.’”
- Mark 4:12 (ESV)

Get In Shape - The Workout Program That Never Fails

Get In Shape is a new series focusing on strengthening our spirit. Pastor Neli outlines a workout program for our spirit which, when strengthened, will give us focus on God's purpose for our lives. We should be developing a lifestyle of prayer and meditating on God's word because when we do, making life decisions becomes a lot easier. We should also preach the Gospel to ourselves and to others and fight for fellowship with other believers.

But we ought always to give thanks to God for you, brothers beloved by the Lord, because God chose you as the firstfruits to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth.
- 2 Thessalonians 2:13 (ESV)

The Greatest Story Ever Told - Let It Be

As we close another series and another year, how will we be remembered? Pastor Neli closes our festive series with this week talking about Mary and how she has been remembered by her reaction to the news she will soon be the mother to the Son of God. Mary is an example of the utter obedience to God. Are we entering 2017 acknowledging God's presence and that he'll give us everything we need this year or are we trying to detach ourselves from the knowledge that He is with us? So let us know God's word, obey God's word and spread God's word, then we can find favour in His presence.

And Mary said, “Behold, I am the servant of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her.
- Luke 1:38 (ESV)
