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.

Hope in a Hostile World || Joel Snibson || Daniel 1

Often the world we live in can feel alien to live in with Christian faith. Society usually contradicts what we believe, and frequently tries to mould us into something that does not align with how God wishes us to live our lives. This week we start a new series looking at the book of Daniel, where Daniel and his friends are taken from their home and forced to live as Christians in an environment that is hostile towards their faith.…

I Believe in the Holy Spirit || Joel Snibson || John 14:15-27

Filled with the Holy Spirit, we’re empowered for mission – to know Jesus and make Jesus known. The Spirit gives us gifts to carry out this mission, and fruits within us to bear witness to the world. For more on the Holy Spirit, including the gifts and fruits of the Spirit, we’ve had a couple of series’ over the years. The 2019 series includes a couple of bonus episodes in addition to talks, including a Q&A. Go deeper into who…

I Believe in Jesus Christ || Joel Snibson || Matthew 1:18-35 & Colossians 1:15-20

There’s no mucking about today; it’s a big topic: How can Jesus be fully God and fully Human- and why does it matter? We’re spending this term looking through the Apostles’ Creed, line by line, in a series we’re calling “I Believe” – a line repeated throughout the Creed. Today “I believe in Jesus Christ, God’s only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary” Connect with us at ➜ Website: https://stjohnsdc.org.au ➜…

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…

Righteousness from faith || Joel Snibson || Romans 4:1-25

Where do we put our trust, and how do we justify ourselves? Are your actions accounting for your ‘goodness’? You’re probably a good person! That’s all it takes, right? We’re wrapping up our look through the start of Romans today, and Joel explores the gift of righteousness Jesus offers.

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. Connect with us at ➜ Website: https…
