The Whitehouse Church

The Whitehouse Church The Whitehouse Church is a Christian community that meets weekly in a big white house in Kaleen, Canberra.

The Whitehouse Church is a Christian community of young adults and families that meet in a big white house (hence the name) on the northern side of Canberra. As a community based church it is central to our values that members build deep and meaningful relationships with one another (which is just a long way of saying we like hanging out together). It is our aim to create an environment where ever

yone feels safe, loved and supported as they journey through their lives and faith. We don't expect everyone to agree on everything and we do our best to welcome all people into our community. We're fans of Greg Boyd, Brian Zahnd and the ReKnew Manifesto. If you're looking for a community that loves kids, has honest discussions about faith, and excellent coffee you should definitely come check us out.

If God is indeed a polyglot of the soul, then human beings have naturally developed distinct spiritual languages over the centuries. What follows are some of the highly observable ways that people — both throughout church history and right here in this room — instinctively come to experience and relate to God.

"Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father."

This is the theological centre of John's gospel and the centre of our theology as a community. We can’t get to the Father without Jesus, we can’t understand the Father without Jesus, the only way to truly comprehend the Father is to know Jesus.

God looks like Jesus. God has always looked like Jesus. And if your picture of God doesn't look like Jesus – patient, kind, compassionate, present with those who are suffering, eating with the outcast, even weeping at the tomb of a friend, then the picture you have isn't complete.

The Way

When Jesus says, “I am the gate for the sheep”, he is saying he is their protector. Imagine the sheep in the cleft of a cave at night and the shepherd sleeping across the entrance to protect them from getting lost and from predators.

But the leaders of Israel, king Herod and the Pharisees, and the revolutionaries that would challenge the imperial authorities, they are thieves and brigands. On one end there are those who collude with Rome to get wealthy by stealing from the flock, and on the other end are the warlords that happily kill and destroy in order to amass power.

This condemnation is just as relevant today. We have leaders that promote the agenda of the rich without a concern for justice and righteousness. And we have leaders that kill, steal and destroy in order to gain power and build their own personal empires.

The Gate for the Sheep

The road to Emmaus is not a one time event. It is the pattern of the Christian life. We walk with Jesus, even when we do not recognise him. We bring our questions, our doubts, our disappointments, and we invite him into our story. We listen as he shows us how the whole of Scripture points to his resurrection. And then, in the simple act of sharing a meal, of welcoming a stranger, of taking, blessing, breaking, and giving, our eyes are opened. We see that death has been defeated, that a new world has begun, and that the risen Christ is walking with us every step of the way.
