• Sermon on the Mount: A Judgemental or Gracious Heart? (Matthew 7:1-12)
    Nov 9 2025

    What makes us so judgemental? Is it a symptom of a self-righteous heart? As God's kingdom reorders our life from the inside-out, it reorders our self-righteous heart from judging to grace. Creighton Friedrich, 9 Nov 2025

  • Saints in Christ (Ephesians 1:11-14)
    Nov 4 2025

    A saint is someone who is "in Christ". But what does that mean? And what does that say about our truest identity as Christians? Let's consider the Apostle Paul's four identifying markers: saints are predestined, are purchased, are heirs to promise, and are to praise the Lord. Rob Denhoed, 2 November 2025 (All Saints' Sunday)

  • Sermon on the Mount: Anxiety (Matthew 6:25-34)
    Oct 26 2025

    We live in the most prosperous moment in history, and yet we also live in a moment with record levels of anxiety. Could anxiety be more than a material problem? Could it have a spiritual solution? Jesus wants us to understand: God's provision, God's protection, and God's paternal care reorders our anxiety. Creighton Friedrich, 26 October 2025

  • Sermon On the Mount: You Should Pray Like This (Matthew 6:5-15)
    Oct 12 2025

    God's Kingdom reorders all of life, including the heart of our prayers. So what does prayer look like when reordered by Jesus towards the heart of a compassionate Father? Performance is reordered to the personal; self-interest is reordered to submission; and self-reliance is reordered to dependence. Creighton Friedrich, 12 Oct 2025

  • Sermon on the Mount: Our Hearts Reordered Toward Heaven, Pt. 3: Beware of Self-Righteousness (Matthew 6:1-6, 16-18)
    Oct 5 2025

    God's kingdom doesn't merely reorder our outward self towards noticeably pious behaviour; it goes deep enough to reorder the inward core of who we are - our very heart - toward God's own glory. So be warned, Jesus says, against practicing self-righteousness to win the approval of others; especially in our giving, our prayer and our fasting. Mike Tweedle, 5 October 2025

  • Sermon on the Mount: Our Hearts Reordered Toward Heaven, Pt. 2: Oaths, Retaliation & Hostility (Matthew 5:33-48)
    Sep 29 2025

    God's kingdom reorders life toward heaven - starting with our own hearts. So what difference does that make to otherwise empty words, our desire for retaliation and our instinctive hostility towards our enemies? Jesus wants us to see: God's kingdom will reorder empty promises towards integrity, retaliation towards generousity, and hostility towards love and compassion. Creighton Friedrich, 28 September 2025

  • Sermon on the Mount: Our Hearts Reordered Toward Heaven, Pt. 1: Anger, Lust & Divorce (Matthew 5:21-32)
    Sep 23 2025

    God's Kingdom reorders our whole life towards heaven, starting with the heart. So how does a heart reordered by God's Kingdom express itself in the midst of life's hardest challenges? An angry heart is reordered towards reconciliation; a lustful heart is reordered towards purity; and a hardened heart behind divorce is reordered towards loyalty. Let's discover a heavenly peace living life according to Jesus. Creighton Friedrich, 21 September 2025

  • Sermon on the Mount: Salt, Light, and the Purpose of Your Life (Matthew 5:13-20)
    Sep 14 2025

    Jesus wants us to be clear on how the kingdom reorders the purpose of our lives: we are called to influence the world for good (like salt) and to illuminate the world with truth (like light). But we can only understand the purpose of our lives in light of Jesus' purpose: to accomplish true righteousness. Creighton Friedrich, 14 September 2025.
