Stadium of Faith
A 4 week summer series looking at people of faith.
As the world was watching the Olympics in London, we were witnessing biblical heroes of the faith and saw the races they ran for God. Be encouraged to step out, and run the race of faith.

Family Focus
A 5 week preaching series exploring Family Life

Making Life Work
An 8 week preaching series based in the book of Proverbs with the aim of taking God’s timeless wisdom and applying it to our everyday lives. Each session will give you practical and usable tools. Why not start reading Proverbs now where you will find one chapter for everyday of the month?

What If?
What if our understanding of the world is wrong? What if there is purpose to life? What if Jesus is the Son of God and Christianity is true?
Does this change anything?
Listen to Morné Smit’s message as he challenged us to consider these questions and explore the implications for us if they are true
The Gospel of Mark
Someone once said “be often in the Gospels”. I think their point was that it is good to deliberately expose ourselves to Jesus, His radical life and His life transforming teaching. We are currently drawing themes from the Gospel of Mark to do exactly that. It is a very hard hitting book and this series promises to pack some of that punch to us.
