Easter Changed Everything. In particular the simple fact that because of the death resurrection of Jesus, we now have a restored relationship with God. Yes, this means that people have to put their faith in Jesus. At Easter 2019, we will see two of the most profound aspects of God working in and through His Son. The reality of His sacrifice and the power of hope. As a result of both we are truly “Restored”.

The Book of Romans is not only the most profound book in the Bible, it is the most profound book in existence. It has been appropriately termed the “Cathedral of the Christian faith.” Many theologians describe it as the most important document ever written. The book of Romans is the most complete explanation of what the gospel is in the entire Bible – it gives, by far, the clearest and fullest exposition of the doctrines of sin and grace.

PreacherIan Barnett Date13/01/19 PassageJohn 6:16-27 Service10am SynopsisAfter feeding the 5000 Jesus sent the disciples in a boat to cross the Sea of Galilee. A strong wind came upon them. Jesus came to them walking on the water, but they did not know it was Him. Wow, enough said. He did what? They were justifiably scared to see someone walking on the surface of the sea. Jesus spoke to them and they immediately knew His voice. They welcomed Him into the ship. Are we still amazed what Jesus did and are we still searching for him? AttachmentsNo attachments Audio |
This 7-week series will seek to bring ongoing clarity to our 2020 Vision as we explore what it means to have a growing confidence that Jesus will build His church. As we head into 2019, our focus for the coming year will be on Kingdom Seeds. It has become increasingly important we accept our part in God’s plan and plant seeds for future generations.
For the Kingdom of God to grow in the Illawarra and beyond, seeds need to be sown and planted now. In doing this we will discover whether we believe that the Kingdom of heaven is truly our treasure.

When I am at my worst, I doubt who I am. I doubt I am good. I doubt I am valuable. Some days, I know, I don't look an iota like Jesus. I look in the mirror, but his image I do not see. Instead, I see the image of a woman who is flawed, faulted and failing. I can be hard on myself.” This comment captures the thoughts of many of our women, who want their men to stand by them for better or worse. AttachmentsNo attachments Audio |

PreacherIan Barnett Date03/06/18 PassagePsalm 51 Service10am SynopsisThis message captures many of the thoughts and feelings that have been expressed, especially by men. Psalm 51 is a standout word, which speaks of confession and repentance from personal sin. What David is seeking, and I sense that many men are seeking, is to ask God to “blot out”, “wash away” and be “cleansed” (vs1-2). What David does is provide a list of wrongs that is meant to be comprehensive. His confession was far-reaching and complete. What God is seeking from all of us is transparency in our lives. Women are also asking this from their men. AttachmentsNo attachments Audio |

PreacherIan Barnett Date24/06/18 PassagePsalm 127 Service10am SynopsisThere is a simple truth to the fact that so much of what goes on in our relational world happens in the home. Sometimes I am left wondering, “what are the homes we are actually building?” I also wonder if, at the end of the day, men and women get excited about being “homeward bound”. Is it possible, that over time we could grow weary of the simple pleasures that our homes bring, let alone the people who occupy them? Psalm 127 is well known and highlights that life itself is pointless unless the Lord is the builder. In the psalm, the psalmist declares the anxiety of life without God.
