Transforming encounters with Jesus - the man born blind (Video)

There are many testimonies from individuals about what their life was like before a significant event, and their life after that event. For a man who had been born blind, that significant event was when he met Jesus. It was a transforming encounter, and his life was never the same again. Transforming lives is what Jesus has come to do.

Life is like an Arcade Game - (Audio)

Like most of us, I like to think I’m basically a “good guy”. I try and do the right thing by people most of the time in my own mind. And this is pretty common for all of us in 21 st century life; we assume that all people are basically good, that our kids are naturally good, even our pets! But something hit earlier in the year as I prepared for Good Shepherd Chapel - something profound that stretches all the way back to the Protestant Reformation - life is like an arcade game…

Our relational God - Our king, who equips us for battle (Audio)

An audio message by Pastor Michael Dutschke.

There are many images in the Bible to describe the relationship between God and us – different images to describe the different dimensions of how God relates to us, and desires to relate to us. This Sunday we will look at how God relates to us as our King who equips us for battle. The Apostle Paul tells us that we are living in a spiritual battle, whether we recognise it or not. He also tells us that our King equips us with the armour we need to stand strong in these battles.

Our Relational God – Our Guide, Who Shows Us the Way (Video)

There are many images in the Bible to describe the relationship between God and us – different images to describe the different dimensions of how God relates to us, and desires to relate to us. This Sunday we will look at how God relates to us as our guide, who shows us the way. We don’t need to ask him to guide us – rather to recognise how he is already at work in our lives.
