This week in our Advent series, At The Right Time, we turn to Galatians 4:4–7 to see how Christmas is a time for God to redeem. Paul reminds us that Jesus entered history at the perfect moment—not just to forgive sin, but to rescue people trapped under the weight of the law. Fully human and fully obedient, Christ paid our debt and did what we never could, freeing us from slavery to performance and guilt. But Christmas doesn’t stop at redemption; it moves us into adoption, where God brings us home as sons and daughters. This message challenges us to stop living like anxious slaves and to rest in the secure love of the Father. Whether you feel burdened, striving, or overwhelmed this Christmas, this sermon invites you to embrace your true identity as God’s redeemed and adopted child.
This week, we kick off our Advent series, At The Right Time, exploring Galatians 4:4-5 and the perfect timing of God’s plan through Jesus’ birth. As Dezemba brings celebration, pressure, and reflection, we’re reminded that Christmas isn’t about calendars, culture, or tradition—it’s about God revealing Himself. Join us as we uncover how the incarnation was God’s decisive move to redeem, reveal, and reconcile humanity. This message invites us to lift our eyes, trust His timing, and see how Christmas points us to Jesus’ life, love, and salvation. Whether you’re celebrating, overwhelmed, or seeking hope, this sermon encourages you to experience God’s revelation at the right time.
In this message, we discover that gratitude is not something we manufacture, but the natural fruit of lives ruled by Christ’s peace, filled with His Word, and shaped by His name. Paul shows us how reconciliation with God brings deep peace that flows into our relationships and daily living. As Christ’s Word dwells richly in us — through teaching, correction, and worship — our hearts are formed to give thanks. Living in Jesus’ name reminds us that every moment belongs to Him, shaping how we speak, act, and respond. Gratitude becomes the overflow of gospel-shaped identity rather than a forced habit.
Paul reveals God’s breathtaking plan to bring Jew and Gentile into one family through sheer mercy. In a world marked by division, this passage reminds us that we all stand on equal ground — equally in need and equally met by God’s grace. As Paul reaches the end of Romans 1–11, he can only worship, overwhelmed by the depth and wisdom of God’s unsearchable ways. True understanding of the gospel always leads us to humble praise. Join us as we marvel at the God from whom, through whom, and to whom are all things.
Paul’s question in Romans 11 — “Has God rejected His people?” — reminds us that even when we wander, God’s faithfulness never fails. Through every generation, He continues to preserve a remnant, a people who stand firm by His grace rather than their performance. We’re reminded that no one is beyond God’s saving reach, and even when it feels like we’re standing alone, He is still at work. His grace secures what our efforts never could, and His promises remain sure.
In this week's sermon, we are reminded that God’s plan to reach the world has always involved His people — ordinary believers carrying an extraordinary message. Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of Christ — and we are the ones called to speak it. Even when the message is rejected, God is still at work, still reaching out, still saving. May we be a people who go, who speak, and who trust Him to do what only He can do.
This week, as we continue in our journey through the book of Romans, Wesley unpacks the simple yet profound truth of the gospel found in Romans 10:9 — that salvation comes through confessing Jesus as Lord and believing that God raised Him from the dead. In this message, we are reminded that we cannot save ourselves; only Jesus can. Christ alone fulfills the law, conquers sin and death, and offers us new life in Him. As we confess that He is Lord, we’re called to bring every part of our lives under His authority and trust in His transforming grace. Join us as we celebrate the beauty of God’s mercy and are reminded to never give up on anyone — because everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.
God’s call has always reached beyond every boundary.
In this message from Romans 9:24–33, we are reminded that we don’t belong to God because of our background, effort, or privilege — we belong because He called us by His grace.
Through Jesus, God draws people from every nation and story into one family of faith.
You belong because God Himself has called you in.
We all know the feeling — “It’s not fair!” But Romans 9 reminds us that while God’s ways may stretch our understanding, His justice and mercy are never unjust. In this message, Mike unpacks how God’s sovereign mercy and sovereign justice both reveal the riches of His glory. Rather than pushing us to intellectual mastery, they call us to worship, trust, and humble submission before Him. At the cross, the only One who was truly perfect received what was unfair — so that we could receive mercy we don’t deserve.
We continue our journey through Romans 9–11, tackling one of the most profound truths of the Gospel: that our salvation rests not on human effort, but on God’s sovereign grace. Paul reminds us that God’s Word has not failed—because His promises were never dependent on ancestry, achievement, or our ability to hold on to Him. From Isaac and Ishmael to Jacob and Esau, we see that God’s saving call has always been rooted in His mercy, not merit.
This doctrine of election isn’t meant to confuse or divide us, but to comfort us—to assure us that God’s hold on His people is firm and unbreakable. When we understand that our salvation begins and ends with His gracious initiative, we can rest secure and worship with grateful hearts. Join us as we unpack what it means to be saved by God’s choice, not ours.
These verses begin one of the most challenging sections of the letter, but also one of the most hope-filled. Paul writes with deep anguish over Israel’s unbelief, reminding us that true theology is not cold or detached—it is born out of tears for the lost. At the same time, Paul shows us that every blessing, every privilege, is meant to drive us closer to Christ, not further away. His words raise important questions: can the Gospel really hold our hope of salvation, or does Israel’s rejection undermine God’s promises? As we step into Romans 9–11 together, we’ll discover that God’s sovereign mercy is stronger and more secure than we could ever imagine. Lean in with us as we wrestle with these truths and find fresh confidence in the Gospel.
On this Heritage Sunday, we celebrated the beauty of God’s design for His people—a family made up of every nation, tribe, people, and language. In Heaven’s Heritage from Revelation 7:9–12, we were reminded that diversity in the church is not a problem to manage, but the very will of God.
We saw that heaven itself is a picture of joyful, unified diversity, and as God’s people we are called to live out that reality here and now. In South Africa especially, our unity across differences is one of the clearest and most powerful witnesses to the truth of the gospel.
This message calls us not just to tolerate one another, but to embrace our God-given differences with joy—because they are a foretaste of heaven and a testimony to Christ’s reconciling work.
In this message, we explored Jesus’ Parable of the Talents and what it teaches us about stewardship. Life is short, but God has entrusted us with time, gifts, resources, and opportunities of incredible value. How we use them depends on how we see Him—because our view of the Master shapes how we serve the Master. Through this parable, we’re reminded of God’s astounding generosity, His trust in us, and His promise of eternal joy for faithful servants. May this message encourage you to see God rightly, steward what He’s placed in your hands, and make it count for His glory.

We conclude our three-week series, Praying Through Pain, with Sibusiso Mdluli preaching from Psalm 5. In this psalm, David cries out for God’s justice against evil, but we are reminded that even he was not innocent—and neither are we. The psalm forces us to wrestle with God’s holiness and our own sin, pointing us to the only One who can stand in our place: Jesus Christ. In Him, judgment and mercy meet, and through Him, we can confidently bring our laments and longings to God. May this message encourage you to pray honestly, trust His justice, and rest in His redeeming grace.
Psalm 83 is a difficult psalm, an imprecatory prayer that expresses deep anguish and calls on God to act in the face of overwhelming threats. Mitch helped us see that real faith does not hide our emotions but brings them honestly before the Lord. In this passage, we are reminded that we can cry out to God in our pain, trust in His perfect justice, and hold fast to the hope that He is making Himself known among the nations. May this message encourage you to pray honestly, trust deeply, and rest in the hope we have in Christ.
How do we respond to hurt and injustice without letting anger consume us? In the first message of our Praying Through Pain series, guest preacher Johan Verster takes us through Psalm 70, showing us how to bring our pain honestly before God. Psalm 70 teaches us to cry out to God, entrust ourselves to His justice, and hold fast to the hope of His vindication. Most of all, it points us to Jesus, who prayed through His pain, bore our suffering, and was raised in glory. Because we are united with Him, we can pray through our pain with confidence that God hears, remembers, and will one day set all things right.
Continuing in Part 2 of “Why Your Salvation Is More Secure Than You Think”, we unpack the second unshakable foundation of your identity in Christ: God’s unbreakable love. If God is for you, who can be against you? No accusation, no condemnation, no suffering, no power in all creation can separate you from His love. This passage silences every fear with five powerful questions that anchor your assurance. You’re not just hoping you’ll make it — you’re eternally safe. Watch now and let your heart rest in the security of the Gospel.
Life can feel uncertain — like you’re barely holding on. But the gospel says your salvation doesn’t depend on your grip, but on God’s unshakable hold. Paul points us to the solid ground beneath our feet: God’s sovereign work, from eternity past to eternity future. Even your hardest moments are being woven into His purpose — to shape you into Christ’s likeness. You’re not forgotten. You’re not random. Join us as we discover why your salvation is more secure than you think — because God never lets go.
Your pain is real — but it’s not the end of your story. In this sermon from Romans 8:18–27, we explore what it means to live in the tension between present suffering and future glory. Paul doesn’t deny the reality of our pain — he reframes it in light of God’s promise.
