Made Well –

John 5:1-15

Do you ever feel stuck in a difficult situation that seems to last forever, wondering if change is even possible? How does the story of a man’s 38-year paralysis being instantly cured reveal Jesus’ power to finally end our longest struggles, and what does he ask us to do after we’ve been made whole?

Faith –

John 4:43-54

In John 4, we encounter a royal official whose desperate plea for his dying son becomes a powerful testament to faith. His story asks us to consider: Can we truly believe in a miracle when it’s not standing directly in front of us, but is only a word spoken from afar? Join us as we explore this transformative journey, discovering what it means to trust not just in a person, but in the power of a single word.

Worship in Spirit –

John 4:27-42

Are you feasting on the empty pleasures of entertainment, food, phones and excess worldly amusements? If so, you are feeding on wind. The only food that lasts is doing God’s will and work.
Jesus has told us the fields are white to harvest – let’s be harvesters for His kingdom!

Worship in Spirit –

John 4:23, 24

What is Spirit? In the famous encounter with the Samaritan woman in John 4:23-24, Jesus moves beyond the debate of where to worship and reveals something far more profound about the nature of God Himself. His radical claim—”God is Spirit”—is a truth that fundamentally redefines what it means to worship.

We are spiritual beings created to connect with the divine Spirit, and this message will challenge us to move from external religious practice to true, life-transforming communion.

The Ministering Heart’s Message Part 2 –

John 4:1-19

What kind of hearts do we need to have to reach those on the margins of society? And what is this “living water” that Jesus offers that can quench our deepest thirst? This message isn’t just a story about evangelism; it’s an invitation to have a ministering heart that sees people not for who they are, but for who they can become in Christ.
