Jesus is driven into the wilderness - and so too are we! (Audio)

An audio message from Pastor Wayne Kerber.
If the temptation of Jesus was not real — if the wilderness that Jesus entered was not dangerous — then this story in Mark's Gospel means absolutely nothing for you and me!
A problem for many Christians is that they don’t take the temptation of Jesus seriously — they don’t want to believe that it actually happened. However, if sin had not been a possibility then the temptation of Jesus would not mean anything to us — it may have just made for a good story.
The temptation of Jesus was Spirit-driven: it was real, it was difficult. Jesus identifies with us in the trials and tests that we face. It was by the power of God’s Spirit he was delivered from temptation. And the same is true for you as well! Our times of testing and temptation will continue, and it will be in those times that we discover that our help can only come from our gracious God.

Sunday Feb 11, 2024
The idea is that God has given us great clothes, a “suit of Salvation” and a “robe of Righteousness”. These are beautiful clothes, and God tells us to put these wonderful clothes on each morning, and to wear them with pride.

A video message from Pastor Stephen Abraham.
Ok, so maybe you don’t personally know a “Moses” who has recently passed away, but maybe you’ve lost an important leader, or you are the “newly elected leader” of your “tribe”, or you are on the precipice of some massive life changes and are unsure of what lies ahead for yourself or your family, and the fears/worries/doubts are creeping in!😬 Let’s lean into Joshua 1.1-10 and hear what God might be saying to us as we face the challenges that lie ahead for us in 2024.

Dealing with Hecklers (Audio)
Sunday Jan 28, 2024
Sunday Jan 28, 2024
Mark 1:21-28 “Dealing with hecklers: How to respond to people who react negatively to your Christian witness and lifestyle.”
Do people sometimes have a go at you for your faith in Jesus? In today’s Gospel we see Jesus responding to a demonic heckler with authority and grace. There are lessons from this for us too. It’s helpful to think a little more deeply about what is going on at a spiritual level when people criticize you or put you down for following Jesus. Try to understand what’s prompting the heckling. Often it comes from a fear of being exposed and/or judged. Rather than destroying him (as he feared), Jesus spoke words of liberation and healing over the man with the unclean spirit. We too need to be people of grace and healing, of acceptance and compassion. Sadly, too many Christians have a reputation for being judgmental and rejecting. St Paul in Romans 12 has come helpful advice for us when facing opposition: “Do not let evil defeat you; instead, conquer evil with good.”
