Living Sacrifices

What does it mean to be a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God? It is to bring our whole selves, body, mind and spirit, to Him in response to His mercy and as an act of spiritual worship.

Grafted Into the Promises of God

Like a wild branch grafted into a cultivated root, in Romans 11 the Apostle Paul declares Gentile (non-Jewish) believers have become co-inheritors of the promises of God. Our salvation is by grace alone so that no believer, Jew or Gentile, may look down upon another.

Happy Feet

Each of us can become "beautiful feet" (v15), bringing the good news of the Gospel to those around us with a simple phone call, a listening ear, an offer of prayer or an act of service.

Children of Promise

In Romans 9, Paul announces a paradigm shift for his Jewish contemporaries and for the growing number of Gentile believers in Rome: that our adoption into God's family "depends not on human will or exertion, but on God, who has mercy." (9:16).

Inseparable From Christ

God is working to conform us to the image of his Son (Rom 8:29), so that the loveliness of Jesus and the beauty of his character will be reflected in our lives.

Sabbath | Part 4: Worship

How we spend our Sabbath reveals what we truly worship. In Christ, we have both the freedom and the responsibility to discern what God wants us to do with his gift of Sabbath. Every weekly gift of rest from God, one day in seven, is a foretaste of the feast to come and the rest he will give us forever.

Sabbath | Part 3: Delight

Jesus offers us joy to the full, sheer delight, but often we settle for mere pleasure. Delight entrances, refreshes and satisfies us...but pleasure leaves us wanting more pleasure.

Sabbath | Part 2: Rest

Jesus invites all who labour and are heavy laden to come to him and find true soul rest. Because in him, you have enough, and in him, you are enough.

Sabbath | Part 1: Stop

The rest we long for, what we ache for, is not another sleep in, it's not even another holiday in Fiji, it's not a minimalist phone...true soul rest is found in Jesus alone.
