In this message, Josh Duckett explores one of Jesus' most challenging commands: forgiveness. Through Matthew 18's parable of the unforgiving servant, the story of Joseph, and personal testimony, we're reminded that we forgive because we have already been forgiven far more than we could ever repay.

Discover what biblical forgiveness really looks like: not excusing wrongdoing, forgetting the past, or ignoring healthy boundaries, but choosing to release the debt, trust God with justice, and walk in the freedom that comes from laying down bitterness. This message challenges us to examine our own "ledger" and ask who God may be inviting us to forgive, including ourselves.

What does it look like to truly bear with one another in love?

In this message, Rochelle Lamborn unpacks Colossians 3:12-14, exploring how our identity as God's chosen and loved people shapes the way we treat others. Rather than striving to earn God's love, we learn to live from it, clothing ourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.

Discover how God's transforming work in us enables us to love others as Christ has loved us and become a powerful witness to the world.

In this message, Joseph Vink explores the transformative nature of God's love and what it means for Christian community. Drawing from 1 John 4, he highlights how God's love is radically different from the world's understanding of love. God's love meets us in our brokenness, offers grace where judgment is deserved, and calls us to extend that same love to others.

What does it mean to be part of God's family? In this message, Artur explores the biblical picture of the church as the Household of God. Through Ephesians 2, we discover that God's family is multi-generational, intergenerational, and a place where we learn, grow, and become more like our Heavenly Father.

As members of God's household, we are called to love, honour, support, and encourage one another while carrying the hope of Christ into the world. Most importantly, we are reminded that through Jesus, we are welcomed into God's family and share in the inheritance of His Kingdom.

In this message, Kayla explores the deeper meaning behind Matariki through a biblical lens, unpacking how this season calls us to remember, give thanks, and look forward with hope. Rather than ignoring culture or embracing it uncritically, we’re invited to discern it through Scripture; learning what to receive, what to refine, and what to leave behind.

From Psalms to Genesis to the New Testament, we’re reminded that the stars were never meant to be the source; they are signposts pointing to the Creator. As we pause this Matariki season, we’re encouraged to lift our eyes beyond the skies and fix them on Jesus; the One who holds all things together.

In this powerful conclusion to The Upside Down Kingdom series, Josh Duckett explores the life-changing invitation into “the secret place”; a quiet, consistent space of connection with God that renews our strength from the inside out.

Many of us know what it feels like to be running on empty; busy, serving, doing all the right things, yet still spiritually drained. This message reminds us that true strength doesn’t come from doing more for God, but from being with Him.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stretched thin, or spiritually dry, this message will encourage you to pause, draw near, and rediscover the source of true life.

In this powerful message, Kayla Duckett unpacks the final Beatitude in Matthew 5, challenging us to rethink what it truly means to be “blessed” when facing persecution.

In a world where discomfort is often mistaken for suffering, this message calls us back to a biblical understanding of persecution - one marked by faithfulness to Jesus, even when it costs us. Through Scripture, real-life stories, and a global perspective, we are reminded that while persecution is real and costly for many believers, it is also where the Church often grows the strongest.

Kayla invites us to lift our eyes from temporary struggles to eternal hope, encouraging us to stand firm in our faith, pray for the persecuted church, and live with courage in the upside-down Kingdom of God.

In this message, Joseph unpacks a powerful moment in Mark 11 where Jesus curses the fig tree and clears the temple, revealing a deeper message about fruitfulness, authenticity, and God’s heart for His people.

Through vivid context and insight, we’re challenged to reflect on what God truly intended for His house: a place of prayer, openness, and transformation for all people, not something exclusive or obstructive.

This message calls us to examine our own lives as “living temples,” ensuring we are not like the fruitless fig tree, full of appearance but lacking substance, but instead people who carry the real, life-giving presence of God to the world around us.
