Biblical Truths We Need in an Evil World

Much evil goes on in this world, just last Sunday 14 people were gunned down at Bondi beach. How can we believe in a good and all-powerful God when things like this happen? Well today we are going to explore Revelation 20-21 and see exactly why he is exactly the person we need in a broken and evil world like this.

Psalm 51

What does it mean to be a Christian? Is it to believe something intellectually? Does it mean you have to do certain things? While both of these are part of it, we can often miss one crucial part, our emotions. They are an integral part of our Christian experience, and we must find a way to incorporate otherwise we are left with a lop-sided Christianity and relationship with God.

The Sacrificial Life

Are willing to offer up that which matters most to us in the world? That is what Abraham was called to do, but in offering it up to God he received back a most precious gift from God, and God now calls us to do the same. Join us today as we unpack Genesis 22.

Passage: Genesis 22

Hope in the Wilderness

All of us must walk through the wilderness, not a physical one but a spiritual one. Times where we feel as though the presence of God has left us. That is what we call the wilderness. In many ways this whole life is wilderness, but there are times when we feel it most acutely. But as we go through Genesis 21, we will discuss four truths that shall help to keep our hope steadfast in God even when we cannot see him.

Passage: Genesis 22

Sodom and Gomorrah

Here we encounter one of the most atrocious and terrible accounts in all of scripture. It is here that we see humanity at its worst and righteous men making very dumb decisions. There is much for us to learn here about the depths of our heart's wickedness and the even deeper love of our God.

Passage: Genesis 19

Date: 16 November 2025

Justification by Faith

What was so important about the reformation and what does it have to do with Genesis 15? It is here that we see the seed that germinate and would become known as justification by faith. The bedrock from which every blessing of the gospel springs, and doctrine by which the church stands or falls, the doctrine without which we would cease to preach the true gospel. Explore Genesis 15 as we see justification by faith at work in the life of Abraham.

Passage: Genesis 15

Lifting Up Our Eyes

We are reading the story of Lot and Abram. One who looks with the eyes of the world, the other who looks with the eyes of faith. Abram and Lot will show us the reward and curses for walking the way of the world vs walking the way of faith, and we will see in that in all things we should be looking to Jesus in faith.

Passage: Genesis 13

Date: 26 October 2025

Tale of Two Cities

Two cities, Babylon and Jerusalem, they can be found from Genesis to Revelation. One representing the kingdom of this world, the epitome of human strength and ambition, the other representing the kingdom of heaven. We are either settling down in Babel or waiting with hope for the New Jerusalem. The choice is before us all, explore Genesis 11-12 with us as we survey the differences between these two cities.

Passage: 11:1-9, 11:27-32, 12:1-9

Second Chance

Genesis 9 marks a turning point in humanity’s story—freedom expands, but boundaries remain. After the flood, God grants Noah and his descendants greater liberty, including the right to eat animals. Yet this freedom comes with new divine guidelines: respect for life, accountability for bloodshed, and the sanctity of life, the covenant marked by the rainbow. Though the earth is renewed, sin still lingers in human hearts.
