June 1, 2025 - The Power of the Holy Spirit
01/06/2025 Duration: 22minThis week, Pastor Dana begins a short series on the Power of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit is the mysterious part of the Trinity and doesn't get talked about as much as God the Father and Jesus Christ, probably because the early church focused more on Jesus and his divinity. But it is the Holy Spirit who reminds us of Jesus' teachings, who urges us to open our minds and hearts, who helps us pay attention to the lessons around us. The Holy Spirit completes the Trinity in a way that keeps us in touch with our spirituality on a day to day basis.

February 23, 2025 - God is Like the ... Wind
23/02/2025 Duration: 21minOur last metaphor for God is wind, which happens to share a definition in Greek with Spirit. Like the wind, God is an invisible force with a very visible presence, and also a bit of mystery. We don't know where the wind comes from or often where it is going, and we certainly don't have much control over it. But it can be used to power our lives in very positive ways.

February 2, 2025 - God is Like a ... Consuming Fire
02/02/2025 Duration: 24min"God is a consuming fire..." This is our metaphor for the week. Most of us have never refined silver or gold, but most of us have been through tough times where God is seeking to purify us. The fire can be a metaphor for the challenges or tough circumstances of life. This is the place where we come closer to God, reaching out to Him in a way that our comfortable lives don't allow.

January 26, 2025 - God Is Like a .... Lamb
26/01/2025 Duration: 25minWhy don't we offer sacrifices to God the way the Israelites did in the Old Testament? Why you don't bring a lamb to church with you? Have you ever wondered how that changed? This week in our Indescribable God series, Pastor David looks at how we are meant to be a living sacrifice for God, and what that means we should do with our lives.

January 19, 2025 - God is Like A .... Parent
19/01/2025 Duration: 20minAnother way we try to understand our indescribable God is by equating God to a loving parent. A nurturing mother. A loving father. A mentor we can follow. Someone who wants the best for us, who guides us and has our best interests in mind. We will look at this metaphor of God as our parent this week in worship as we continue our Indescribable God series.

January 12, 2025 - God is Like a ... Shepherd
12/01/2025 Duration: 23minWe try to describe an immense God by giving him certain attributes and using similes and metaphors.

A good shepherd watches over his flock, caring for them and making sure their needs are met and that predators are kept away.

January 5, 2025 - God is Like a... Rock
05/01/2025 Duration: 17minHow do you describe the indescribable? Throughout the Bible, the authors use metaphors to try to give us ideas about God - God is like a rock, or a loving father, or a lamb, or the wind. These give us a picture of a specific attribute of God. This week, Pastor David looks at God as our foundation, a steadfast rock on which we can always rely.

10/12/2024 Duration: 22minAs we continue to look at the Characters of Christmas, Pastor Dana takes a look at Mary and Joseph.

November 24, 2025 - God Can Use It
24/11/2024 Duration: 21minThis week in worship, we finish the story of Joseph as he comes face to face with his brothers after 20 years. How does he respond? Will he repay them for their evil toward him? Or will he find a way to reconciliation? And what about us? When evil is done to us, do we respond by putting out more evil in the world or can we find a way to bless our enemies?
