Jessica Carolissen continues week 4 of our Ruth series, exploring Ruth 3:1–18 and The Redeemer’s Promise. Naomi sets a bold plan in motion, Ruth responds with risky obedience, and Boaz reveals the redeemer’s response. Though Ruth does not yet have the wedding, land, or heir, she is upheld by Boaz’s word, provision, and character. This points us to Jesus, our greater Redeemer, who fulfils God’s radical plan, bears the cost of redemption, and secures our eternal hope.
Sheldon Moultrie continues week 3 of our Ruth series, unpacking Ruth 2:1-23. We follow Ruth as she steps into the unknown, meets the generous Boaz, and sees God’s kindness and providence at work. This encounter brings provision for the present and hope for the future, pointing us to the ultimate Redeemer, Jesus Christ.
Cam Venter continues week 2 of our Ruth series with a message from Ruth 1:15–22. As Naomi and Ruth return to Bethlehem, we are encouraged to see suffering honestly, recognise God’s hand in it, and find the hope that carries us through.
Paul Maughan from Common Ground Church Sea Point and Iain Kruger from Common Ground Church Rondebosch wrap up our God and Sex series with a special bonus conversation. Together they reflect on key themes from the series, tackle some tough questions, and explore how following Jesus shapes our sexuality and identity today.
Lee-Ann Maughan opens our new series on Ruth with a message from Ruth 1:1-18. We see how God is sovereign over every detail, how He works through ordinary people, and how even suffering can draw us back to Him. The story of Ruth points us to redemption, community, and the fullness we receive in Christ.
Iain Kruger from Common Ground Rondebosch closes our God & Sex series by drawing on Jesus words in John 14:6. He explores what it means to follow Jesus in our sexuality and how the gospel brings power and healing as we come to the Father.
Paul Maughan continues our God & Sex series in week 5, exploring the topics of same sex attraction and transgenderism. Jesus held both conviction, affirming marriage as between male and female, and compassion, shown in his encounters with the woman caught in adultery and the woman at the well. This message invites us to hold both conviction and compassion as we follow him.
Paul Maughan continues our God & Sex series with week 4, focusing on singleness. Together we wrestle with the cultural stories around singleness and the pressures they bring, and then turn to the hopeful vision Jesus and Paul give us in Scripture. The message invites us to see singleness not as lack, but as a gift to be embraced in Christ and within the life of the church.
Paul Maughan continues our God & Sex series with a message on marriage, exploring the difference between covenant and contract. This talk invites you to reflect and respond as you consider God’s design for marriage.
In this special Women's Evening recording, four women from our community share powerful personal stories that reveal four unique reasons to pray. Rooted in real life and centred on God's presence, this evening includes time for worship and reflection, reminding us that prayer is more than a habit – it's an ongoing conversation with our Father. Whether prayer feels familiar or new, this is an invitation to be encouraged and inspired.
Steph continues our God & Sex series by exploring how our sexuality shapes us. Are we being formed into the image of Christ—or something else—by the choices we make? From cultural extremes of repression and indulgence, Jesus offers a better way: the redirection of desire and deep satisfaction in Him. Key scriptures include 1 Thessalonians 4:1–8 and Psalm 32:5.
This week, we began a new series titled God & Sex. In an age of sexual confusion, this series seeks to anchor us in Scripture – no confusion! In the last 70 years, the world—particularly the West—has undergone rapid change in how it understands and practices sexuality. Marriage has been redefined. Technology, pornography, delayed marriage, and shifting norms around gender and identity have transformed what was once considered common understanding. Paul began by naming the cultural chaos around sexuality and affirming that while the world shouts slogans like “love is love”, “if it feels good, go for it” and “all things are lawful”, the Bible offers a story of design, purpose, dignity, and redemption.
In our final week of the 1 John series, Stephan Pienaar unpacks 1 John 5:13–21 - a call to confident faith in confusing times. John reminds us that we have eternal life, access to God in prayer, victory over sin, and a true Saviour in Jesus. This is more than doctrine - it’s assurance that anchors us. In a world of distortion and idols, we stand firm as God’s beloved children, secure in Christ.
In this week’s message, Greg Groenmeyer takes us deep into 1 John 5:6–13, calling us to find assurance in the real Jesus - the one who came by water, blood, and is testified to by the Spirit. We explore what it means to believe in the Son of God and how this belief leads to eternal life, not just in the future but right now.
Jessica Carolissen continues our series in 1 John with a message from 1 John 5:1–5.
Faith, love, and obedience aren’t in competition—they’re all part of what it means to be born of God. In this talk, we explore how true faith not only empowers us to love and obey, but also gives us the victory to overcome the world in a way that redefines what “overcoming” really means.
Sheldon Moultrie continues our 1 John series, exploring 1 John 4:7–21 and the powerful truth that God is love. Drawing from his own experience with Jesus, John calls love the defining mark of genuine faith. When we love one another, we make the invisible God visible—his love made complete in us.
In a world full of competing voices, how can we tell what’s true? This message reminds us that we are not alone—God has given us his Spirit, and he who is in us is greater than he who is in the world.
Paul Maughan continues our 1 John series by unpacking 1 John 3:19–24. In this message, we explore how our hearts, though often weighed down by guilt or doubt, can find assurance in the truth of God’s love. Through believing in Jesus and walking in love, we move from condemnation to confidence—living in the freedom of abiding in Him.
This week, Lee-Ann continues our series in 1 John, unpacking 1 John 3:11–18. We're reminded that love is not just a feeling or a word, but a call to action. Jesus shows us what real love looks like—laying down our lives for others.
