   The Ways of Jesus // Formation: Knowing God's Ways

   What does it mean to truly follow Jesus? As the early Christians were known as followers of “the Way,” this sermon continues our journey through The Ways of Jesus by exploring what wholehearted discipleship looks like in everyday life. Beginning with 2 Corinthians 3:17–18, we are reminded that following Jesus is not simply about knowing what Scripture says, but about engaging with God’s Word, contemplating His ways, and allowing Him to transform our thinking and our lives. We are called to resist conformity to the world, renew our minds, and become increasingly more like Christ. Through the story of Balaam and Balak in Numbers 22–24, we are reminded of two powerful truths: God has blessed those who belong to Him, and the Lord is with His people. Whatever others may say or plan, our identity is not determined by their opinions. Our identity is found in Jesus, and His presence goes with us wherever we go. From Joshua’s courage, to Isaiah’s promise of God’s presence, to Jesus’ assurance that He is with us always, Scripture repeatedly points us back to the same truth: we are not alone. Even in difficult seasons, nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. The challenge is simple: get to know God’s ways in Scripture. Engage your mind. Put Jesus first. And live each day with the confidence that the Lord is with you. As you listen, consider: Are you taking time to contemplate God’s Word and discover His ways? And how might knowing that God is with you change the way you face the week ahead? Speaker: Philip McAlister

   The Ways of Jesus // Formation: A Living Sacrifice

   What does it look like to respond to the mercy and grace of God with the way we live? In this message from Romans 12:1–2, we explore Paul’s invitation to become a “living sacrifice”, offering our whole lives to God as an act of worship. After spending the first eleven chapters of Romans explaining God’s mercy, grace, forgiveness, and the new life we have through Jesus, Paul calls us to respond by allowing those truths to transform the way we live. Following Jesus is not simply about what happens on a Sunday. Worship involves our whole lives. Our time, our work, our finances, our relationships, our choices, and the way we serve others. We are called not to be conformed to the world around us, but to be transformed through the renewing of our minds. As part of The Ways of Jesus series, this message explores the importance of practices such as Scripture, prayer, service, and continually filling our minds with God’s truth. When we make space for these practices, we become increasingly shaped by Jesus and learn to recognise what is good, healthy, faithful, and pleasing to God. Rather than simply going through the motions, we are invited to live with a renewed mind and a transformed life - not to earn God’s love, but because we have already received His grace and mercy. “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind.” Romans 12:2 What would it look like for your whole life to become an act of worship? Speaker: Dwain Mckay

   The Ways of Jesus // Following Jesus: Into Deeper Waters

   What does it really mean to follow Jesus? In this opening message from our new series, "The Ways of Jesus", we look at Luke 5 and the story of Simon Peter and the fishermen after a long, exhausting night with empty nets. Jesus meets them in the middle of their ordinary routine and says, “Put out into deep water, and let down your nets for a catch.” Their response is simple: “Because you say so, I will let down the nets.” Through this story, we’re invited to consider what Jesus might be saying to us today. Are we willing to push out from the shore, go deeper, and trust Him even when we are tired, discouraged, or unsure of what comes next? The Ways of Jesus explores how we can shape our lives around the ways Jesus lived and taught. Through practices such as Scripture, prayer, solitude, rest, generosity, community, witness, and service, we create space to encounter Jesus and allow the Holy Spirit to transform us to become more like Him. Following Jesus isn’t about simply ticking boxes or completing religious activities. It’s about surrendering our time, energy, attention, and lives to Him - learning His ways, becoming more like Him, and joining Him in loving God and loving others. As we begin this journey together as a church, we’re reminded that we don’t have to do it alone. There is an invitation to go deeper, to make space for Jesus, and to discover what it looks like to faithfully follow Him in the everyday. “Master, because you say so, I will let down the nets.” Luke 5:5 What might it look like for you to let down your nets again, push into deeper water, and follow where Jesus is calling you? Speaker: Victoria Moore
