In this message Wouter looks at what it means as believers to be ‘aroma of Jesus’ to the world. We consider the question of whether there are personal sacrifices that Jesus is calling us to, in order for him to be able to use us to reach those around us.

In this message, Sarah looks at the issue of gifting, and how God has given gifts to each one of us to use within the church family. Here we see this amazing picture of both a unified body, but one which also exhibits wonderful diversity and difference in gifting.

Paul writes to the church in Ephesus, ‘make every effort’ to keep the unity of the Spirit. In this message we talk about unity; what it is, why it’s so important, and how all of us have a part of play in looking after it.

Jesus’ feeding of the 5000 is a story that displays both God’s great compassion for people, but also the responsibility on all believers to care for the people around them. On one level, we have a responsibility for the city of Rotterdam. It is a call that comes both with real cost, but also great privilege.

26th Jan 2025 | Phil Varley

In this message, we look at how our circles of friendship and connection are always meant to be open and outward facing. We are called to share what we have, and make space for others. Jesus’ mission to seek and save lost people has become our mission. Therefore, we should aim to be as aware of those who are ‘not in the room yet’ as much as those who already are.

19th Jan 2025 | Sarah Varley

In this message we looked at the story of the paralysed man brought to Jesus, and the power of belonging.

As we enter a New year and we consider how important it is to press into community, find friends and how Jesus promises to meet us in the midst of those relationships.

In the first of our Clear Vision series, we look at Psalm 1 and how God’s plan for our lives is for us to live fruitful lives that count.

In this message Sarah explains how the birth of Jesus is a multifaceted expression of God’s love for humanity.

In our all age Christmas service, we consider how the Christmas story is the account of Jesus, the true light that gives light to everyone coming into the world.

15th Dec 2024 | Phil Varley

Have you ever wanted to press ‘reset?’ Have you ever desperately wanted to start again and try to get something right that has gone wrong? At the start of our Christmas series we look at how Jesus’ birth is the story of new life breaking into humanity. It is the story of new possibilities, new opportunities and new life for all people.

Vahé preaches out of Ephesians 3:20-21 and unpacks Paul’s calling for the church to reflect the glory of God.

Our hidden life with God will be the most important aspect of who we are as people, and the direction our life is moving. Chris encouraged us to not hide anything from God, but rather to cultivate a flourishing hidden life of prayer and devotion with God.

17th Nov 2024 | Chris Taylor

In this message we explore God’s plan to create ‘one new humanity’ (the Church) who will display something of his wisdom, power and grace.

We ask the question, what is our role in this and how can we play our part in building together across cultures, generations and people groups?

10th Nov 2024 | Phil Varley

In Ephesians 2:11-22, Paul urges the Ephesian believers to “remember” both where they once were, and where they now are. They were excluded but now they have been radically included. In this message we explore how fully accepting these truths can impact our lives and our church, creating confidence, humility, compassion and gratitude.

3rd Nov 2024 | Phil Varley

Vahé looks at Ephesians 2:1-10, particularly zooming in on verse 10. He explains the structure of the paragraph and how God’s power in us is greater than any other power, freeing us from sin and empowering us to walk in good works. Vahé explains how God has prepared these good works for us before the foundation of the world and how our life is bursting with meaning and purpose.

27th Oct 2024 | Vahé Jebejian

In this message we look at Paul’s desire for believers to understand just how bad things were without God, and how good things are and will be with him. We consider Paul’s encouragement to live out our lives in light not simply of what God has done, but in view of what he promises to do going forward. We need to go ‘back to the future’ so we can see just how good he promises to be.

20h Oct 2024 | Phil Varley

In this message Sarah looks at Paul’s prayer for the Church. In particular we consider how Paul prays that we would know Christ more and that the Holy Spirit would reveal to them their calling, their inheritance and the power available to them.

13th Oct 2024 | Sarah Varley

In this message we explore being assured what our inheritance in Christ is, and how it changes our priorities and perspective. Without such confidence we easily drift into lifestyles indistinguishable from the world.

Dave Holden zooms into Paul’s understanding of Christians indwelt by treasure (2 Corinthians 4). Dave reminds us to have a sober view of ourselves (jars of clay) and at the same time upholds our value as containing a treasure of incomparable value (the life of Jesus in us).

If that treasure was available to one of Christianity’s worst enemies (Paul), then the indwelling treasure is available to all.

22nd Sep 2024 | Dave Holden

God consistently speaks into Joshua courage, strength and boldness. He knows that for Joshua to step into all that God has for him, he will need faith. In this message we consider how to live lives more shaped by faith than by fear.
