How Great is Our God—by Justin Renton

August 15, 2022

Sermon summary:

Genesis 1:1 God—Elohim—created heaven and earth from nothing. Beginning = the start of everything — he is the genesis of everything. Our lives should begin with him.

Our vision for our lives/the church must be God. He looked at the nothing and envisioned something. When we focus on people, instead of Him, we lose our way.


Genesis 1:2 God sees possibilities in the darkness. He saw possibilities. Without God life is depressing. There are solutions with God. It takes faith to see opportunities in the darkness and void.


Genesis 1:3 God's spoken word is powerful. Only the Bible is impressive. "And God said", . As people we have to labour, God only speaks it into existence (v6,9,11,24,26).

Am I still in awe of the Bible? Has the Word lost its impact on our lives? Read it daily, allow it to transform you/bring hope? Recapture the love.

"God said" ends all arguments we might have.


Genesis 1:31 Very good... 

God saw all he had made and it was very good. Sunsets, sunrise, flowers, insects etc. 

The bride of Christ is beautiful. We are always representing Jesus, and need to be careful how we talk about it.

Build Together (Book of Acts), Part 3—by Justin Renton

April 14, 2025
The Holy Spirit gives guidance and direction in our missionary work. Are we doing the work the Spirit has set aside for each one of us to do? He knows the time, place and person to reach out to. Are we listening and obeying when he nudges us? The Holy Spirit forms Christ in all of us and it's a lifetime journey. Seek to be filled. Listen to his voice. Step out boldly.

Sacrificial Giving—by Jacques Genis, CJ Roux & Fungai Blake

April 6, 2025
Giving is an act of trust. It is also not an obligation but an act of worship. Give from the heart, not as a duty, but as a way to express gratitude. Giving is about unity in the church, it is motivated by grace, not guilt, and a spiritual act of joyful worship. Jesus demonstrated sacrificial giving through his actions, leaving us an example to follow.

My Story, His Mission & Grace—by Erick Li Sik and Ettienne Wilke

March 31, 2025
To embrace Jesus's mission, I must first clothe myself with Jesus and have his character formed in me. He must become greater, I must become less. Then I"ll be able to do as Jesus did. God's grace is with me. We need each other. Grace is a gift.
