A summary of what’s happening this weekend

Coming up this weekend 14-15 March 2020

This week we are kickstarting our ‘Jesus Is___‘ campaign, a six-week series on who Jesus is. I will be leading this week’s sermon ‘Jesus Is Satisfying‘ as we look at John chapter 6 verses 35 to 59.

Each week in our services we have a question and answer segment, and here are this week’s questions:

1 How can we retain our Bible knowledge so that we can use it when sharing the gospel?

2 What is the best way to tell people about Jesus: a sit-down meal or a plain-old conversation?

3 If God knew we were going to sin and turn against Him, why did He create us?

4 Can people be demon-possessed today, and if so, what does it look like?

5 Should we be fasting today as Christians, and if so, what for and when?

6 Is it OK that we seem to speak more about Jesus than ‘God’?

7 Does God love everybody equally?

Come along on Saturdays at 5pm for our family service where we have a kids program, followed by dinner and a youth group for years 6-12. Or why not come along on Sundays at 9am for a more classic Anglican style service, followed by morning tea and hot espresso.

Grace and peace,
Jodie

Coming up this weekend 7-8 March 2020

This week we will have the second in our two-part series, ‘Know and Tell the Gospel‘. Last week we learnt the basics of what we believe, and this week we will learn how to tell and share the gospel with others.

Each week in our services we have a question and answer segment. To ask question, simply fill out your response slip at church. Here are the questions I’ll be answering this week:

1 When it says that the heavens will be destroyed, isn’t it talking about the sky?

2 If we confess our sins but continue anyway, does this mean we’re not really sorry for them?

3 Were the faithful Old Testament people saved by the death of Jesus, like us?

4 Since Old Testament saints were saved by Christ without knowing all about him, could this also apply today to those who haven’t heard about Jesus?

5 Won’t there be sadness in Heaven when people realise their loved ones are in Hell?

6 Should we be thankful when militant atheists are sent to Hell?

7 Will there be sin in Hell?

8 How do you stay true to God when people are hurting you?

Join us on Saturdays at 5pm for our family service! We have a kids program, share dinner together afterwards and also have a youth group for years 6-12 from 7:30-9pm. Or why not come along on Sundays at 9am? This service has a more classic Anglican feel, and we share morning tea together following the service, along with hot espresso!

Grace and peace,
Jodie

Coming up this weekend 29th February & 1st March 2020

This week Jodie will lead us as we start a new two-week series ‘Know and Tell the Gospel‘, as we look at the first topic: ‘Know the Gospel’. This is an ideal opportunity for us to be very clear about the basics of what we believe, so we can easily know it and share it with others.

We have a regular question and answer segment in our services. To ask a question, simply fill out a response slip at church. Here are the questions that Jodie will tackle this week:

1 What will happen on Judgement Day for the people who never heard about Jesus?
2 Should we be hungry for heaven when we know that it will be destroyed when Jesus returns?
3 Is it selfish to hope that Jesus won’t return for a while because you aren’t ready?
4 When it says that everyone will confess that Jesus is Lord, does this include people going to hell?
5 What is the “wealth” in the Parable of the Talents and what do the interest and bankers mean?
6 Is the Parable of the Talents about our gifts or about the gospel?
7 Is Satan’s role in our sin just his temptation, or can we blame him for physical events?
8 What are your top tips on how to have a thriving, personal relationship with Jesus?

Join us on Saturdays at 5pm for our family service, with a kids program followed by dinner for everyone and a youth group for years 6-12. Or come along on Sunday mornings at 9am for a more classic Anglican feel, followed by morning tea and hot espresso!

Grace and peace from Jamberoo Anglican!

Coming up this weekend 22-23 February 2020

This week we will hear Jodie speak to us on the last sermon of our current series ‘God’s Glorious Judgement‘, and will see how God’s judgement that is still to come in the End Times continues to showcase His glory and mercy.

Each week we have a question and answer segment. To ask a question, simply fill out your response slip during the service. Here are the questions that Jodie will answer these questions this week:

1 What would happen at the plague of the firstborn son if a Jew married an Egyptian?
2 If a person doesn’t believe in the bodily resurrection of Jesus then are they really a Christian?
3 Why couldn’t God just forgive us without needing a sacrifice?
4 If we can just forgive someone without cost, then why can’t God?
5 Can we forgive someone who hasn’t apologised?
6 How can a Christian be called righteous when they continue to sin?
7 How can we evangelise people without being too forceful?

Join us on Saturdays at 5pm for our all-age service where we have a pre-school and kids’ program and share a meal together, followed by a youth group for years 6-12 from 7:30pm-9pm. Or come along on Sunday mornings at 9am for a more classic-Anglican-style service, followed by morning tea and hot espresso.

Grace and peace,
Jamberoo Anglican

Coming up this weekend 15-16 February 2020

This week we continue our series on ‘Glorious Judgement‘, and will see how God’s judgement is full of grace and mercy at Easter time as Jodie speaks to us from God’s word.

Each week in our services we have a question and answer segment based on your questions from the week before. Here are the ones for this week:

1 Since Jesus is part of the Trinity, why does he say in Mark 10:18 that only God is truly good?
2 Which ‘pharaoh’ is referred to in the Exodus story?
3 How did the staffs turn into serpents if God wasn’t working through them?
4 Were the ‘magic tricks’ by the Egyptians a work of the Devil?
5 Would the water that turned to blood also taste like blood?
6 Should Christians continue to celebrate the Passover or is it now obsolete?
7 Is there a difference between predestination and predeterminism?
8 How can predestination and free will both be true?
9 How can we become more brave as a Christian?

This week we start a new series titled ‘Glorious Judgement’ which will help us understand more about the mercy and justice of our God.

Our regular question and answer segment also starts back this week, where I answer questions you have submitted about a sermon or just the Christian life in general. To ask a question, simply email office@jamberooanglican.com or via your response slip at church. Here are the questions:

1 Did Paul get to preach to Caesar?
2 What happens after Acts in the timeline of the Bible?
3 What happens to Paul after Acts and is there a book of the Bible on it?
4 How did the other disciples not figure out that Judas had left to betray Jesus?
5 Since they ate roast lamb at the Last Supper, should we also eat lamb at the Lord’s Supper?
6 Should we be specific when we pray, or can we just mention someone’s name?
7 How do you be strong when things are hammering you down?

The regular kids church program and youth group for teens starts back this weekend, so come along on Saturday at 5pm where we can have fellowship together and share a meal after the service.
