Are you tired of running on the treadmill of "good behavior" just to please God? Many of us grew up thinking Christianity was just a long list of rules to keep—or things to stop doing. But what if the "good news" isn't actually about being good?

In this sermon, we open Romans 7 to explore the radical difference between living under the exhausting weight of the law and walking in the life-giving freedom of the Spirit. We’ll look at the burden of performance, the gift of our new "marriage" to Christ, and how to stop trying to please an old master.

If you’ve felt like you’re constantly trying to "win" your faith but are only finding low-grade exhaustion, this sermon is an invitation to rest in the finished work of Jesus. Discover how to stop performing, start living, and embrace a relationship with the Saviour who loves you at your worst.

When conversations around gender often feel like navigating a minefield of power struggles, how do we find a path that leads to flourishing rather than friction? In this sermon, we're continuing our series on church membership by exploring one of our core distinctives: the biblical design of family, and how that pertains to gender and gender roles. Moving beyond "who gets to be in charge," we look at God’s original design in Genesis as a "lighthouse"—not a restriction to bind us, but a means of mercy to keep us from drowning in the chaos of a broken and confused world.

Our culture hasn’t just drifted from God’s design for sex and marriage — it has inverted it, treating personal sexual freedom as sacred and God’s wisdom as the problem. This sermon looks at what’s behind that shift, what the Bible actually teaches about marriage from Genesis to Revelation, and what it means to respond faithfully — whether that calls us to repentance, to costly obedience, or simply to pursue Jesus with fresh wonder.
