The Year of the Lord’s Favour | Joel Snibson | Luke 4:14-30
Despite our best wishes, not every year is a 10 out of 10 year. We often stumble into a new year after months of hardship or suffering. However, Jesus came to save the broken and the weary. So if you feel like you’re not “thriving” this new year, Joel’s talk this week will be just what you need to feel ready for this year.

Jesus’ Important Task for Us || Delle Matthews || Luke 24:36-49
Casper, Slimer, Bruce Willis in The Sixth Sense- ghosts appear throughout pop culture and we generally accept some rules around ghosts. They can be seen and heard, but usually can’t interact with physical objects, and definitely can’t eat or drink. The idea of Ghosts goes back a long way into human history though, and in today’s passage we see the risen Jesus working to convince his disciples that he isn’t a ghost, but a fully resurrected body.

Teaching & Table || Joel Snibson || Luke 24:13-35
Diving into a superhero movie these days can feel disorientating. You might not have read issue 486 of The Amazing Spiderman from 1982, and so are missing some important context for the new movie! Fortunately, your nerdy friend can explain things to you as you go – filling in details and throwbacks that were, at the time, foreshadowing things that are happening now. Our passage today isn’t exactly like that, but what we do see is the risen Jesus joining…
Easter 2024 || Maddy Bialecki || Luke 24:1-12

Zechariah’s Song || Delle Matthews|| Luke 1:67-79
Have you ever thought – what I’ve done is too bad. Unforgivable. Irredeemable? Well simply put. You’d be wrong. With Christmas just around the corner, here’s your reminder that Jesus is our one true hope, and that nothing can separate us from the love …
Mary’s Song || Joel Snibson || Luke 1:46-56
It can be hard to see from our 2000 year of removal from the birth of Jesus, but his coming was the start of a revolution. Like all good revolutions, this one had an anthem in song: Mary’s song, that we find in Luke.

Living flipped lives || Delle Matthews || Luke 19:1-10
Zacchaeus was restored, and his life flipped upside down as he responded to Jesus’ grace and mercy on him. We too are called to live changed lives of repentance, thankful to God for all he has done for us.

Where do you put your trust? || Joel Snibson || Luke 18:35-43
With all the safety nets around us – Centrelink, the NDIS, Superannuation – it can be all too easy to slip into a pattern of self-reliance, instead of trusting in Jesus.
