  Judgement, Heaven & Hell: What Happens After We Die? | God’s Book

  Jul 25, 202628 min

  What really happens after we die? Is judgement something to fear? What does the Bible actually say about heaven, hell and eternity? In the final message of our God’s Book series, Lynn Swart explores one of the Bible’s biggest and most challenging questions: What happens at the end? Drawing from Revelation, Matthew 25 and the wider story of Scripture, Lynn reminds us that God’s judgement is not simply about punishment, but about perfect justice, restoration and the hope of a new creation. Most importantly, she points us to Jesus—the One who was judged in our place so that we can receive eternal life through Him. In this message you’ll discover: • Why God’s judgement is ultimately good news • The difference between the Book of Deeds and the Book of Life • What Jesus taught about the Sheep and the Goats • Why grace and truth always belong together • How God’s justice restores what is broken • The hope of heaven and the invitation to eternal life through Christ Rather than becoming consumed by speculation about Revelation, we’re invited to keep our eyes fixed on Jesus—the centre of God’s story from Genesis to Revelation. Key Bible passages: • Revelation 20–22 • Matthew 25:31–46 • John 5:24 • John 8:1–11 • Romans 3:23–24 • Psalm 96:12–13 God’s Book is a teaching series inspired by Andrew Ollerton’s bestselling book, exploring the Bible as one unified story that ultimately points to Jesus.

  Is the Bible’s View of Sex Outdated? | God’s Book

  Jul 18, 202630 min

  Is the Bible’s teaching about sex, relationships and marriage outdated — or is it pointing us towards something deeper? In this message from our God’s Book series, Anthony Delaney explores one of the most personal and challenging questions people ask about Christianity today: does the Bible’s view of sex still make sense in our modern world? Looking at the big story of Scripture from Genesis to Revelation, Anthony unpacks how the Bible presents sex not as something shameful, but as a good gift from a loving God — designed around covenant, faithfulness, identity and love. With honesty and sensitivity, this message explores: • Why God cares about sex and relationships • How Jesus holds together both grace and truth • The difference between freedom and healthy boundaries • Why our deepest identity is found in Christ • What marriage, singleness and friendship reveal about God’s love • How Jesus meets us with compassion, forgiveness and transformation From the woman caught in adultery in John 8 to the picture of the wedding feast in Revelation, the Bible tells a bigger story — not of rules and shame, but of a God who loves us, restores us and invites us into true life.

  Do Miracles Still Happen? | God’s Book

  Jul 11, 202622 min

  Can we really trust the Gospel accounts of Jesus? And if we can, do miracles still happen today? In this message from our God’s Book series, Matt Donaldson explores the reliability of the Gospels, the evidence for the resurrection, and why Christians believe Jesus still heals, speaks and works miraculously today. Looking at both the historical evidence and the biblical story, Matt challenges us to move beyond “practical atheism”—believing in God while living as though He never intervenes—and instead rediscover a faith that expects God to move. In this message you’ll discover: • Why the Gospel accounts are historically trustworthy • The evidence for Jesus’ resurrection • Whether miracles still happen today • How to avoid both scepticism and unhealthy obsession with the supernatural • What it means to be a supernatural community centred on Jesus Ultimately, Christianity isn’t simply another philosophy or moral framework—it’s the story of a miraculous God who stepped into history to bring life, freedom and hope. 📖 God’s Book is a teaching series inspired by Andrew Ollerton’s book of the same name, exploring the Bible as one unified story that points to Jesus.

  Why Does God Allow Suffering? | God’s Book

  Jul 4, 202629 min

  If God is loving and all-powerful, why does He allow suffering? It’s one of life’s deepest questions—and one every worldview must answer. In this message from our God’s Book series, Anthony Delaney explores what the Bible really says about pain, grief, injustice and loss. Rather than offering easy answers or clichés, Scripture points us to a God who enters our suffering, weeps with us, and ultimately defeats death through Jesus Christ. Looking at the Bible’s four-part story—Creation, the Fall, Jesus and New Creation—we discover that Christianity doesn’t simply offer an explanation for suffering. It offers a Saviour. In this message you’ll discover: • Why suffering was never part of God’s original design • How the Bible makes sense of pain within the bigger story • What Jesus’ tears at Lazarus’ tomb reveal about God • Why our deepest trials can become places of deeper revelation • The hope of resurrection and the promise that suffering will not have the final word Whether you’re wrestling with unanswered questions or walking through a difficult season, this message offers a biblical perspective filled with honesty, compassion and hope. Key Bible passages: • Genesis 1–3 • John 11 • John 4:50 • Hebrews 5:8 • Revelation 21–22 📖 God’s Book is a teaching series inspired by Andrew Ollerton’s book of the same name, exploring the Bible as one unified story that points to Jesus.

  Why Is There Violence in the Bible? | God’s Book

  Jun 27, 202623 min

  If God is love, why does the Bible contain wars, judgement and violence? In this message from God’s Book, Anthony Delaney tackles one of the toughest questions people ask about Christianity: how can a loving God be connected to violent stories in the Old Testament? Looking at the wider story of Scripture — from Creation to Revelation — this talk explores how the Bible’s message moves from peace, through humanity’s violence and rebellion, back toward ultimate peace through Jesus Christ. This message explores: • Why context matters when reading difficult Bible passages • The bigger story behind Old Testament wars • Ancient warfare, hyperbole and spiritual conflict • How God restrains violence rather than celebrates it • Why Jesus is the turning point of the whole story • How the cross transforms “us vs them” into one family in Christ Because the Bible is not a story of a cruel God — but of a loving God entering a violent world to rescue and restore it.
