In this message, Chad takes us for a journey verse-by-verse through Acts 13, where we are introduced to the Church of Antioch: a church famed for serving as the base from which the apostle Paul's ministry was launched into the Roman world.
Today, this dynamic church continues to serve as an inspiration and a model of authentic 'Apostolic Christianity', one which embraced Apostolic Priorities, Apostolic Pastoring, and Apostolic Proclamation.
This message was recorded live at Harmony Church, Christchurch New Zealand, on Sunday 31 August, 2025.
Key texts include: Acts 11:19–30; Acts 13:5–48.

In this message, presented in February 2023 at Jubilee Church in Sydney Australia, Chad walks the congregation through an overview of Old Testament history, with a special focus on the developing theme of ‘God’s Bride’. This powerful metaphor, describing God’s special relationship with His covenant community, comes to the fore particularly strong in the Old Testament Prophets, at a time when Israel was divided into two kingdoms, and then climaxes in the New Testament Scriptures with the arrival of the new-covenant Bride of Christ!

Today’s special release podcast offers an exclusive look into the first lesson of Chad’s soon-to-be-released Video Mentoring Program for his multi-award-winning book ‘You Can Handle the Truth: Making Sense of the Bible in 3 Simple Steps’. In this session, Chad examines the 3 Main ‘Toolkits’ God has provided in order to correctly handle His Word, as well as unpacking the 3-Step Process to healthy hermeneutics as demonstrated in Nehemiah Chapter 8.

In this brief excerpt from the Mansbridge family’s Farewell Service to Bayside Church, Chad takes us to Acts Chapter 20, where we find Paul’s famous ‘farewell address’ to the Ephesian elders—a speech which, in many ways, reflects those given by Old Testament leaders such as Moses, Joshua, Samuel, King David and Jesus. Drawing on highlights from each of these biblical examples, Chad offers the congregation a sincere and heart-felt farewell of his own as his time of serving as Bayside’s lead pastor comes to a close after 20 years. Key texts include Acts 20:17–38; Deut. 31:8; Josh. 24:14–15; 1 Sam. 12:23; 1 Kings 2:2; 1 Chron. 29:17–18; John 13:34–35; Acts 20:28.
