To grow our own food we need a garden of good soil, free of weeds and rubbish.
To grow the fruits of The Spirit we need to constantly evaluate our words and acts.
We need to work with God to evaluate what is sinful (bad) and what is good.
We need to be sure we are not tricked by flowers that are actually weeds!
All Age: A young boy uses his initiative to help out others who don’t have enough.
This is exactly what Jesus would ask of us all.
Message: God eagerly awaits the Kingdom – a kingdom that would reflect God’s intuition for ‘human flourishing’ to take root in the real lived experiences of Jesus followers.
This message explores a powerful teaching from Jesus, reminding us to focus on what truly matters in life.
With warmth and clarity, Rev Dr Drayton unpacks Jesus’ words about greed, worry, and the illusion of security through possessions—challenging us to reflect on our values and where we place our trust.
Many voices can be heard in our world – What is true? What is false? What do we disregard?
Is it reasonable to believe something we did not get to experience?
The 2 people traveling to Emmaus may have the answer… on that road, the stranger with them, shared the scriptures which were enough to believe that what they had heard was true – Jesus
died and rose again – their hearts were set on fire!
Our unity is a command by Christ to embrace. It is not the name or label that counts, but the reality of showing the whole world the love we have for them and each other.
Leave prejudices and barriers
behind so the the world may see that we are indeed ‘one in Christ”
The ‘real world’ is not kind to underdogs!
Mary was a young Jewish woman in a Roman empire and pregnant out of wedlock – an underdog!
In her lonely situation she still sings praise for the God who extends mercy.
A God who has good news to the poor and oppressed.
