In this stand-alone message, Ella invites us to see community not simply as something that supports discipleship, but one of the primary ways Jesus forms us into His likeness.
Drawing on Jesus' vision of a new family in Mark 3, the community of Acts 2, and the Bridgetown Church Cycle of Community, Ella explores what happens when we stay through the heat of real relationships.
What if the very people and relationships we're tempted to pull away from are part of how Jesus disciples us and forms His alterative family?

A pastoral word of encouragment: Keep going
Three-quarters of the way through the year, with the end now coming into sight, Dan offers a simple encouragement as we consider our lives apprenticing to Jesus: keep going.
Drawing on Paul’s encouragement to “train yourself to be godly”, and his own newfound love of running, Dan explores what it means to intentionally train towards a life that looks more like Jesus. Whether you’re enjoying the journey, feeling the grind, or needing to begin again, keep making yourself available to the Spirit, keep practising the things that form you — and keep going.

Special message: Preparing to find CV a home
For some years, Central Vineyard has hoped and prayed for a home of our own. In this special co-leaders message, Dan, Gab, Alisha and Rob share why we sense it is time for a change of posture: from simply hoping for a home, to preparing for one.
Together, they explore why places matter, what a permanent home could make possible for our church and our city, the journey we have been on so far, and some of the practical steps we are beginning to take.
This isn’t an announcement of a building we’ve found, or a project we need to rush. It’s an invitation for us as a church to begin preparing together — praying, imagining, stewarding and making room for what God might have for Central Vineyard in the years ahead.
