What Do People Mean by Anointing? | Acts 13:1-12
Some Christian talk in Christian communities do not make it out into the marketplace because they lack precedence or context. The term ‘anointing’ is one of those terms. In Acts 13: 1-12, we see the Holy Spirit, commission and call Barnabas and Saul to leave the comforts of the Antioch church to do the work the HS has prepared for them. Pastor Robin unwraps this narrative in order to help us see the value of the term anointing to the 21st Century Christian and its impact on the world surrounding.

What Healthy Churches Look Like
Like it or not, we need each other because God has created us for community. But what does that look like? Or more importantly, what does a healthy church community look like?

Living with Expectancy | Acts 3:1-10
There is a season for routines, procedures, safety and predictability but there is no life in ‘them’. There is only life and power found in a Person - in the Person of Jesus Christ. As those who are in Christ - we haven’t been made subject to rules of living but we have been made alive to God in everything we do, think and say. This lends itself to unpredictability, foiled routines, subsequent danger at times but most importantly joy. Pastor Robin explains in today’s message how Acts 3:1-10 illustrates a life lived and led expectant of a good God.
