    05/10/2025 Duration: 17min

    Jonah 2:1-6 - “Grace from the Pit” reminds us that God often meets us in our lowest moments to redeem and restore us. Jonah’s time in the belly of the fish wasn’t punishment but a rescue — a place where brokenness met grace.

  • Swallowed by Grace

    28/09/2025 Duration: 40min

    Jonah 1:10-17 - Though Jonah ran from God’s call because he feared that God would be merciful to Israel’s enemies, God intervenes through a supernatural storm and a great fish in order to redirect Jonah and preserve his mission. The central point: we can be “swallowed up” by God’s grace—He will pursue us, save us, and send us back out to proclaim mercy, even when we resist.

  • Arise and Go

    21/09/2025 Duration: 45min

    Jonah 1:5-10 - God often sends storms into our lives not simply to punish, but to awaken us, redirect us, and draw us back into His purposes. Jonah tried to run away, avoided facing God’s call, and in doing so created a bigger problem—not just for himself, but for others around him. Yet God’s purposes persist, and even through disobedience, He pursues, disciplines, invites us to “arise,” repent, and take up what He has for us.

  • Storms of Disobedience

    14/09/2025 Duration: 38min

    Jonah 1:1-4 - This sermon introduces Jonah chapter 1, emphasizing that Jonah’s flight from God’s command incurs “stormy seas” — turmoil and brokenness — because disobedience always brings consequences. Yet even in Jonah’s rebellion, God’s mercy pursues him: God sends storms, intervenes, and ultimately provides a way back.

  • Exploring what it means to be doers of the Word

    07/09/2025 Duration: 28min

    James 1:19-27 - In this message we are reminded that being doers of the Word means living out our faith in obedience, not just hearing Scripture. James 1 calls us to be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger, and to let God’s Word transform our actions. True faith shows itself through bridling the tongue, serving those in need, and living distinctly from the world.

    Luke 24:1-11 - This message centers on the resurrection of Jesus as the foundation of living hope, contrasting it with superficial hopes rooted in money, health, reputation, or religion.

    06/07/2025 Duration: 35min

    Genesis 2:1-3 - This message explores the biblical principle of rest as established by God in creation.

  • Sacred Pause

    29/06/2025 Duration: 28min
