Scene 1. John had some questions about the nature of Jesus’ ministry and Messiahship. Understandable really, he was in jail. Death was a very likely outcome. And the reports about Jesus that he was hearing didn’t add up with his expectations. Jesus wasn’t taking over Jerusalem. He was out with the common…

Foundations of being the church. Jesus walked out and lived these anointed lanes of heaven. We too can walk in His footsteps under the same anointing that Jesus does.

Isaiah 63 Jesus echos the words of the prophet Isaiah in: 16 He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom.

Joy is a major theme in both the Old and New Testaments, so both Judaism and Christianity are faiths full of joy. But what exactly is joy? Where does it come from? What suppresses it? How does it work today, in my day-to-day life in 21st Century Australia? Join us as we tackle these questions.

If you could see God change one person’s life, who would it be? And how do you imagine it would happen? Today, we’ll see how Jesus the Messiah transforms us to become ministers of the life-giving presence of God in the lives of others. The Messenger Isaiah 61:1-4 - Those who mourn in Zion have good news.…

Reception Uncovered — “Rejection is not the Exception But the Rule” It is easy to assume that God’s Word ought to be a welcomed guest wherever it is preached. We are also surprised when that same Word is met with apathy or rejection by those who hear it. It is also easy to conclude that when the Word…

Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. We mentioned…

What lanes is God's anointing on? We first humble ourselves and come to Jesus with our afflictions. Let Jesus heal your heart from any bitterness and life long afflictions or loss. After you receive that connection and rest run towards this lane of sharing the good news to those afflicted, set the trapped free, lead those who keep falling into their prisons of lies or shame out into freedom, and morn with those who have lost. Ted Hanson released a new prophetic word Sunday speaking into the season we are in now... "Good news is going to sweep the nations, says the Spirit of Life! But not in a rising up – in a standing up. That the arms can reach out, that the hands can be those who bring life because the connection between the feet and the hands is the heart and I'm healing the bitter places this Day, says God.
