Coming up this weekend 16-17 March 2019

Well maybe it was because we were talking about sex, but last weekend was probably our biggest weekend in recent history, as we gathered in great number to hear God’s word, to pray to him, and to do it in a community of energetic, enthusiastic and loving disciples of Christ.

If you’re thinking of joining us this weekend, you’d be very, very welcome. We love it when new people come along, and we really do go out of our way to include visitors and newcomers. God is working among us to draw many people into our church, and maybe this is the weekend you’re going to experience that, first-hand?

Our topic this weekend is ‘True Sex is Honourable’, as we look at our second instalment in the four-week series on the Old Testament book, ‘The Song of Songs’. It’s going to be an important word from God about an issue that touches all of us in a real way. Don’t miss out!

Each week we have some questions from the week before that we answer. Here they are for this week:

  1. Where does the Bible say that slavery is wrong?
  2. Would you recommend Melinda Tankard Reist as a resource against child sexual trafficking?
  3. Is it OK for Christians to attend a yoga exercise class?

Our service times are 5pm Saturday, which caters really well for kids and youth, but still includes good numbers of people from all ages and stages. We have dinner afterwards, then they youth hang around for their group. Or, join us 9am Sunday for a classic Anglican service, which includes espresso coffee for morning tea.

It’s been a buzz to welcome so many new people to our church over the past few weekends, and we’d really love you to join us at 5pm Saturday or 9am Sunday.

This weekend we begin a four-week series called ‘True Sex in the Song of Songs’. We’re going to look at the book of the Bible that is dedicated to sex, and learn what God thinks about this very important part of our human life.

This week’s topic is ‘True Sex is Wonderful’, where we will see that God is far from being anti-sex… because he made sex, and he made it to be enjoyed… which is truly wonderful.

Like every week, we spend some time answering your questions from the previous weeks, and this time we’ve got some pretty meaty issues to discuss:

  1. Should Christians be active in protecting the Judeo-Christian virtues of our society?
  2. Should we use secular reasoning to engage with the world, or only Biblical arguments?
  3. The Bible appears to be in conflict with science, so how can we help unbelievers with this hurdle?
  4. What can we do to help bring an end to the sex trafficking of children?
  5. What is our new body going to be like in heaven?

So, join us for dinner after our 5pm Saturday service, which includes a kids’ program, with youth program after dinner. Or come at 9am Sunday for a more classic Anglican service, with some great espresso right after our service.

Grace and peace, Jodie.

Hola!

This weekend we’re having a special South American feel, as we welcome our special friends, Adrian and Anita Lovell (along with Matias, the newest member of their family).

The Lovells serve in Cochabamba, Bolivia, which is a country in South America. They are missionaries with CMS (The Church Missionary Society) and their job is to help Christian leaders grow in their understanding of the Bible, so they can teach and influence others with the great news of Jesus.

To celebrate, we’re going to have a special Bolivia night this weekend, with special Bolivian food and trivia during our after-church dinner. So, be sure to turn up at 5pm Saturday 2nd March, and hang around for dinner, which will finish around 8pm.

During our 5pm Saturday and 9am Sunday services, Adrian Lovell will be our guest preacher, and we’ll also have a special opportunity to learn more about what these Aussies do in faraway Cochabamba!

As always, we’re also having a bunch of questions answered during our services and here they are:

  1. If church is dual-action, then should we avoid running men’s dinners, kids’ clubs and other community events?
  2. Does God speak to us through the Bible using audible voices or words on our heart, and how do we know it’s really him speaking to us?
  3. What does verse 15 mean when it speaks about singing in the Spirit?
  4. Is it good for Christians to be on social media?
  5. Are there surfing beaches in Heaven?
  6. Will there be espresso in Heaven?
  7. If there is technology in Heaven, will it be Apple or Android?

If you’ve not come before, then this is an awesome weekend to join us. Sunday’s service is a little more classic in style, and Saturday night is a little more relaxed and has a bunch of kids and youth programs happening as well. We’d really, really love to see you!

Grace and peace, Jodie.
