New Sermon Series: The Story

Published on July 30, 2025

Join us this Sunday 3 August at 9am, 11am, 5pm and online as we launch into a new teaching series together.

The Story: God’s relentless pursuit through history to call you home

The Bible is more than a collection of disconnected stories—it is a unified, sweeping narrative of God’s pursuit of humanity. Over this 12-week series we will explore ‘The Story’, of God’s redeeming work in the world as we reflect on the major turning points of Scripture and uncover the deep, consistent heartbeat of God’s redemptive love.

From creation to new creation, from covenant to Christ, we will trace the powerful thread of God’s sovereign plan to redeem His people and restore all things. From the forming of God’s chosen people, to His deliverance through the Exodus, the longings voiced in wisdom and worship, and the warnings of the prophets. We’ll reflect on the tragedy and hope of exile, the fulfilment of God’s promises in Jesus, and the explosive birth and growth of the Church.

At the heart of this series is the transforming truth of the gospel: through the cross and resurrection, God has defeated sin and death. Through the Holy Spirit, He empowers us to live as His people in a broken world. And with the return of Christ, we look forward to the final restoration of all things.

This series is for everyone—whether you are new to the faith, exploring Christianity, or a long-time believer seeking a richer view of Scripture. Our goal is to deepen your love for the Bible, increase your confidence in God’s plan, and call you to live as participants in His ongoing story. It is an amazing Story, it is our Story and it is a Story that calls us home.
