The Cost Of Discipleship

Following Jesus costly, but it is ultimately worth it. But if we are to follow him, we need to know what we are signing up for. A life of sacrifice, a life of wholehearted devotion. A life where we will ultimately give up everything for him. As Pastor Ben unpacks the parable of the foolish builder and the wise King, we will learn just how important it is to count the cost of following Jesus!

The Resurrected King

The Resurrection of Jesus is the moment that death was conquered and resurrection life was made possible for all who trust in him. The resurrection of Jesus is the single most important event in human history because it is the moment that hope for our world dawned!

The Humble King

The Triumphal entry into Jerusalem is the moment when Jesus’ was recognised as the King of Israel. But Jesus was to be a different kind of King to the one that God’s people wanted. Instead of being a King who would overthrow Israel’s enemies with displays of power and military might, Jesus entered Jerusalem as the humble King who road in on a donkey’s colt.

The Fearsome Nature of God’s Justice

God is love. There is perhaps no more well known characteristic than to know that he is love. But God’s love isn’t the only characteristic of God that the Bible speaks of. Alongside his love, God is also the God of justice. Pastor Ben unpacks the opening chapter of Nahum to help us see how the gospel is the message of God’s saving love and perfect justice!

The Resenting Prophet

Jonah has been on a topsy turvy journey with God and as we reach the final instalment of his journey, he is shown to be full of resentment towards God. Jonah is convinced that Nineveh didn’t deserve God’s mercy. But Jonah’s vision of God’s plan for the world is nearsighted and narrow. Instead of resting in God’s grace, Jonah resents it. Jonah 4 gives us a glimpse into God’s plan to restore all things!
