"The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory..." (John 1:14) How can finite people truly know an infinite God? In this message, we explore one of the most astonishing claims of Christianity: that God did not remain distant, hidden behind metaphors, symbols, or religious rituals. Instead, He revealed Himself fully in Jesus Christ. From Eden to the Tabernacle, from the prophets to the promises of Scripture, the Bible tells a single story of God's desire to dwell with His people. Every covenant, sacrifice, and prophecy points forward to the moment when the Creator stepped into creation and "set up camp" among us. Using a simple childhood memory of a toy elephant and a real-life encounter with the animal itself, this sermon examines the difference between hearing about God and truly encountering Him. The incarnation is not merely a theological idea. It is God's invitation into relationship. In this sermon: ✅ Why Jesus is the ultimate revelation of God ✅ How the Old Testament points to Christ ✅ What Hebrews means by "the exact representation of God's being" ✅ God's desire to dwell with humanity from Eden to today ✅ Why Christianity is about encountering a Person, not merely believing ideas Key Scriptures 📖 John 1:14 📖 Hebrews 1:1-3 📖 Hebrews 2:10-18 If this message encouraged you, please like, subscribe, and share it with others. #John1 #Incarnation #JesusChrist #ChristianSermon #BibleTeaching #Hebrews #ChristianFaith #KnowGod #WordBecameFlesh #Gospel #Christianity #BibleStudy #Jesus #Theology #ChurchSermon #StartingwithGod

Can We Really Describe God? The greatest minds in history have wrestled with the same question Moses asked at the burning bush: "Who are You?" When God answered, "I AM WHO I AM," He revealed a truth that still challenges us today. God can be known, yet never fully contained by human language, logic, or imagination. In this talk, we explore: ✅ Why God must reveal Himself before we can know Him ✅ The difference between metaphor and definition in Scripture ✅ Why Jesus is God's ultimate self-revelation ✅ How biblical images like Shepherd, Father, Rock, Light, and Word help us understand God's character This is a message about mystery, revelation, and the God who chooses to make Himself known. "The indescribable has become visible. The unknowable has made Himself known." If this message encourages you, please like, subscribe, and share it with others.

Names are important. They can convey so much more meaning than simply what the word literally means. So what can we learn from God’s name revealed to Moses: I Am Who I Am? Chris speaks on how through speaking His name God reveals part of his nature to us.

What is truth? In a world of fake news, AI-generated content, competing opinions, and endless information, how can we know what is really true? In this message, we explore the question famously asked by Pontius Pilate: "What is truth?" Using the same principles employed by historians and scientists, we examine the evidence for Jesus Christ and the central claim of Christianity: the resurrection of Jesus from the dead. Was the resurrection a real historical event? What do the eyewitness accounts tell us? Why did the earliest Christians stake everything on this claim? And what does it mean if Jesus truly is who He said He was? This sermon explores: How we evaluate truth and reliable evidence The historical case for the resurrection The testimony of eyewitnesses The reliability of the New Testament and Scripture Why Christianity stands or falls on the resurrection of Jesus What Pilate's question means for us today Christianity is not presented as a blind leap of faith, but as trust grounded in testimony, evidence, and the person of Jesus Christ. The challenge remains the same today as it was 2,000 years ago: Consider the evidence and decide what to do with Jesus. "Jesus came into the world to testify to the truth... The question is no longer 'What is truth?' but 'Will you listen to the One who is truth?'" #WhatIsTruth #ChristianApologetics #JesusChrist

In Psalm 119 the psalmist says that God’s word is a lamp to their feet and a light to their path. In the next in our Starting with God series Chris looks at how the word of God is essential to our journey, guiding our way through the darkness of life and illuminating the true path to Jesus.

We continue our series on Starting With God with Chris this week expanding on one of the topics from last week: that at the moment we can only see the glory of God like a reflection in a mirror. There is a danger that the mirror becomes so dirty and clouded that we only see our own reflection, that we take the atheist philosophy that God is simply a reflection of our own desires. Jesus turns that thought on its head, the God beyond knowing chose to make himself known and dwells among us. We only have to choose to accept him.

Throughout the New Testament it is stated that we should be born again in Christ. Continuing our Starting with God series, Chris speaks on how this is not a literal re-birth but a spiritual one. Putting to death our old sinful selves and instead living our lives moulded and guided by Jesus.

The book of Revelation can be an incredibly difficult book to understand, however in the concluding chapters of John’s vision it gives us a picture of God’s ultimate plan: a new heaven and a new earth, free from death and suffering. Until then we will endure trials, grief and hardship on this current earth. In an incredibly poignant sermon reflecting the season we are currently walking through as a church family Chris reminds us that we do this knowing that God does not abandon us to live life alone, he stands with us and experiences our all of our pain and sadness alongside us
