Since Jesus is returning soon to judge the world, is it right for us to just sit around and enjoy a holiday? Well, when we hold to the truth that God is sovereign over everything, then it means that it’s OK to stop and enjoy a break. This is why God originally created a Sabbath […]
For as long as I can remember I’ve known about Jesus. My grandparents were followers of Jesus, and they brought me up knowing that it was really important to know him personally. When I was ten I decided to follow Jesus myself, and I am now more convinced than ever that this is the greatest […]
Do you take the time to say “thank you” to God? At times of relief from danger, we thank God a lot. But what about at the normal times of life when things can be fairly mundane? If we are not thankful to God for what he has done, then perhaps it is because we […]
Learning things by rote is not very popular anymore. It has largely been dropped from school curriculums as an outdated method of teaching. Learning things deeply is far better than simple parroting off the facts. By nature it is also repetitious and hardly the funnest form of education. However this has impacted the Christian’s practise […]
As we approach another Anzac Day, we are reminded again of the horrors of war. The Australian War Memorial lists 102,825 people who have died as a result of service with Australian units. It is sobering to consider the tragic, human cost of these conflicts. Behind every name there is heartbreak, and behind every casualty there […]

This milestone reminds us that this building has had a special place in our hearts for we who have regularly gathered here since 1867.

And as schooling comes to our mind we should remember that education is a privilege we should never take for granted. Many parents around the world would only dream of offering their […]
Jamberoo Anglican Church will be celebrating the 150th anniversary of the opening of the church building at two events over the weekend of 18th and 19th of February 2017. The ‘Church of the Resurrection’ was officially opened on 2nd January 1867, and has been the meeting place for Anglican churchgoers in Jamberoo ever since. On […]
Ever since the Cold War, people have described the President of the United States of America as the ‘leader of the Free World.’ It’s quite an awesome title to print on your business card. And unless you’ve been blissfully enjoying a prolonged media blackout, you would know that this position has become vacant, and the successful candidate will […]
Our partner church at Oak Flats Anglican is looking for a new Assistant Minister to join our churches to help equip us for ministry. For as we see from Ephesians chapter 4, we know that Jesus has given speakers of God’s word to the church, so that every Christian will be equipped for ministry to everyone, so […]
