The Miracle Of Forgiveness – Pastor Andy Rattenbury

We all want fairness… until we realise we need forgiveness.

In this moving preach, Pastor Andy Rattenbury unpacks the life-changing truth that grace is unmerited favour — not something we work for, but something we receive.

Drawing from powerful encounters in the Gospel of Luke, this message reveals why forgiveness isn’t just a doctrine — it’s a miracle.

If you’ve ever wondered whether you have to earn God’s love, this message is for you.

Life is noisy, busy, and full of competing voices. In this message, Pastor Emily Rattenbury unpacks how to hear God in the middle of everyday life—not just in quiet moments, but in real decisions, conversations, and pressures. This preach explores why our words matter, how humility and prayer position us to hear from God, and how to recognize His voice when everything else is demanding our attention. If you’ve ever wondered whether God is speaking, how to tell if it’s Him or just your own thoughts, or how to navigate everyday decisions with confidence and faith, this message will encourage and challenge you.

In Week 2 of 'How to Pray' series, Pastor Andy Rattenbury reminds us that prayer isn’t always found in the noise, or the big moments. Sometimes it’s discovered in the pause. In a world that never stops talking, God often speaks in a whisper. If you’re longing for clarity, strength, or direction, it may be time to slow down, be still, and lean into His presence.

Prayer doesn’t need to be complicated to be powerful. This message reminds us that prayer is simply coming to God as a loving Father — with gratitude, honesty, and trust. As we choose to make prayer a priority, we discover that showing up consistently can transform both our relationship with God and the way we live each day.

God doesn’t call us to comfort—He calls us to movement. In Part Three of The Journey Christmas series, we explore the quiet courage of Mary and Joseph, the bold response of the shepherds, the pursuit of the wise men… and the invitation that some chose to refuse.

What happens when God asks us to trust before we fully understand?
This is a holy adventure—and the question is whether we will say yes.

Life doesn’t always unfold the way we expect. In this message, The Unexpected Journey, we explore how God remains faithful even when our path leads through valleys. Mary and Joseph were called into an unexpected journey filled with uncertainty, yet God was with them every step of the way.

Jesus Himself walked through pain, rejection, and suffering—experiences that are far more relatable than we often realize. Because of this, He understands our struggles and knows every valley we face.

No matter what you are going through today, you are not alone. Jesus knows your valley, and He walks with you through every season. Be encouraged as you’re reminded that God will never leave you, even on the most unexpected journeys.
