John 3:16 isn’t just a memorised verse—it’s the gospel in action. We’re lost, loved,and invited into light. Nicodemus’ story reminds us that success, status, or religion can’tfill emptiness. Jesus offers something deeper: the ongoing, transformative life of beingborn again.

Life can be messy, confusing, and downright painful—but Romans 8:28 remindsus that God is weaving it all together for our good. The “good” God promises isn’t alwayscomfort or ease; it’s becoming more like Jesus. From heartbreak to delays, God’s Spirit isat work, shaping us for eternity. You don’t have to understand every piece now—you justhave to trust the One who does.

In the end, our lives are defined not by fleeting desires but by lasting decisions.Joshua’s maturity was revealed in his consistent choice to follow God, even when desirewas absent. True maturity is found in resilience, character, and calling. When desire fades,decision lasts.

Maturity isn’t just about surviving failure—it’s about stewarding success. Joshua’svictories gave him influence, and how he handled it revealed his maturity. Success bringsits own tests: will we persist in prayer, pass the promise, and praise God in prominence?Mature faith sees blessing as an opportunity to bless others.

Every challenge carries the potential to mature us. God doesn’t test us to break us,but to build us. Joshua’s obedience at Jericho teaches us that victory comes not throughour strategies, but through God’s. Maturity is choosing to obey—even when it doesn’tmake sense—because obedience doesn’t just start, it finishes.

This Sunday guest speaker Pastor Brent Liebezeit shared a powerful message, What’s in Your House. Even in difficult times, God is with you, He is for you, and He has incredible plans for your life. Just like David was anointed and prepared in private before stepping into his calling, God is developing things in you that you may not even see yet. God has placed treasures, gifts, and callings inside you that you may not even realize yet.

Life is full of change—new roles, responsibilities, and transitions. These momentstest our maturity. Like Joshua stepping into leadership, we don’t always know the plan,but God does. In the uncertainty, His promise is our anchor. Maturity means trusting Hispresence and His blueprint even when the path is unclear.

Life’s biggest plot twists often come from what’s happening inside us. Leftunchecked, emotions like anger, jealousy, and guilt can hijack the story God wants towrite. In this message, we’ll learn how to guard our hearts, take back the pen, and let Godflip the script toward freedom and wholeness.

Our world often treats intimacy like it’s only physical — something temporary withno lasting impact. But the “unwritten” part of the story is that God designed intimacy tobe spiritual, emotional, and physical, woven into His bigger picture of love and covenant.In this message, we’ll uncover why intimacy was never meant to be casual and howrediscovering God’s design can bring wholeness to our story.

Every good story grows through transformation. In this message, we’ll talk about how God uses relationships and seasons of singleness not just to bring people into your life, but to shape who you’re becoming. This isn’t just about finding the “right person” — it’s about becoming the person your story needs you to be.

We all start with an idea of how life is supposed to go — and most of us try towrite the story ourselves. In this message, we’ll talk about where that desire comes fromand why it’s okay to want connection — but even more important to trust the Author. Youdon’t need a perfect plan to be perfectly in purpose.

God is not safe—He’s holy. And He is a consuming fire. In the final message of theseries, we dive into what true worship looks like—reverent, sacrificial, and costly. Just likeyou wouldn’t play around at a bonfire, we’re called to approach God with awe. Your life isthe altar. So what kind of fire are you carrying?

When the world shakes, the Church stands. Looking at the early churches, thismessage explores what it means to be rooted in hope and built to last. An immovableChurch doesn’t retreat—it plants. Discover the strength found in spiritual stability andhow your life can become a steady witness in an unsteady world.

You weren’t just gifted—you were anointed. In this message, we break down whatthe anointing truly means in the New Testament and expose some of the myths that haveclouded our understanding. The anointing isn’t about hype or platform—it’s about beingset apart to carry the weight of God’s presence and purpose in your life.

What does it actually mean to grow in your faith, not just go to church? In this message, Pastor James Murray shares what a maturing church really looks like. He helps us see that growing in Christ isn’t about how long you’ve been around, but about growing in love, unity, and humility together. A lot of people have started to feel like church isn’t all that important anymore. But we’re making a Spirit-led effort to live differently. This is an invitation to grow up in Christ, not just grow old in church.

You’re more than just a believer—you’re a priest. You were created to minister toGod. This message calls us back to our purpose: to worship with our whole lives andoffer ourselves as living sacrifices. As New Covenant believers, we offer something better—through Jesus, the better High Priest. Let’s rediscover the power of intentional worshipand surrendered devotion.

As we close out the Be Rich series, we’ll take a deep look at what it means to berich toward God. It’s not about how much we have but how we use what we have toglorify Him. In this final week, we’ll explore the importance of surrendering everything—our finances, our time, and our hearts—so that we can live with eternal purpose and giveall for His glory.

It’s not just about giving money—it’s about living a life of purpose. This week, we’llchallenge ourselves to be rich in good deeds, using our time, talents, and resources tomake a difference in the world around us. When we understand that God has blessed usabundantly, we’ll feel called to do more with what we have for His kingdom.

What do we do with the abundance God has entrusted to us? In this week’s message, we’ll explore the heart of generosity, and the joy that comes from giving. As we reset God’s sovereignty over our lives, we’re reminded that He has given us more than we need and in response, we are called to give more. Let’s dive into what it means to be a rich giver and how we can use our resources to bless others and honour God.

In the first message of Be Rich, we’ll uncover the good news that God has alreadyblessed us with more than we need, making us richer than we realise. But with thatblessing comes the challenge of how we view our wealth. Do we see it as a gift to beused for His glory, or do we take it for granted? This week, we’ll discover what it means totruly be rich in God’s eyes.
