How Great is Our God—by Justin Renton

August 15, 2022

Sermon summary:

Genesis 1:1 God—Elohim—created heaven and earth from nothing. Beginning = the start of everything — he is the genesis of everything. Our lives should begin with him.

Our vision for our lives/the church must be God. He looked at the nothing and envisioned something. When we focus on people, instead of Him, we lose our way.


Genesis 1:2 God sees possibilities in the darkness. He saw possibilities. Without God life is depressing. There are solutions with God. It takes faith to see opportunities in the darkness and void.


Genesis 1:3 God's spoken word is powerful. Only the Bible is impressive. "And God said", . As people we have to labour, God only speaks it into existence (v6,9,11,24,26).

Am I still in awe of the Bible? Has the Word lost its impact on our lives? Read it daily, allow it to transform you/bring hope? Recapture the love.

"God said" ends all arguments we might have.


Genesis 1:31 Very good... 

God saw all he had made and it was very good. Sunsets, sunrise, flowers, insects etc. 

The bride of Christ is beautiful. We are always representing Jesus, and need to be careful how we talk about it.

Sacrificial Giving—by Ivor Botha, Erick Li Sik & Bridget Mokoteli

May 4, 2025
We are called to excel in the grace of giving—it’s not just a duty, but a spiritual act of worship. Be consistent and faithful in our giving. Set it aside intentionally, and don’t delay in fulfilling what you’ve committed to the Lord. Don't let your imperfect view of God impact your giving.

Biblical Parenting Part 1 —by Justin & Sarah-Jane Louw

April 27, 2025
Changing takes courage—but parenting God’s way means choosing His path, and knowing where our help comes from. Righteousness is about healing and strengthening relationships, not achieving perfection. Don’t conform to the world’s ways—seek God’s perspective on parenting. Model the behaviour you want to see, and let His Word draw your heart to your children, and theirs to yours. Be present in their spiritual journey—it's not optional, it's your responsibility.

Treasure in the Field—by Justin Louw & the Teens

April 20, 2025
We are like broken pieces of pottery. God went looking for us, he found the fragments of our lives discarded by life/shame/disappointment, and put us back with the blood of Jesus. Treat each other not as broken but perfected through Christ.
