In this great message Mel explores how we can move from a world view to a WORD view where God is central to our thoughts and decisions. Often we are emotionally driven but when we have a WORD view we are eternally driven. God is His grace wants us to grow and change and sometimes that stretching can feel uncomfortable but His way is always better.

Mel challenges us in this message to focus on WWJD - What Would Jesus Do? as opposed to focussing on the WEEDS - What Everyone Else Does.

When a caterpillar is being transformed into a glorious butterfly it first digests itself into an oozy soup. Yet in this oozy mess a beautiful work of transformation is happening. Listen in this message how God can transform what feels like an oozy mess into a beautiful new creation.

FR LOUIS SCURTI SHARES PERSONAL STORIES OF HOPE OVER DESPAIR, ENCOURAGING US TO HOPE!

HOPE OVER DESPAIR 12th Sunday

In a world filled with turmoil and constant challenges, we all long for a sense of inner peace and rest. Join us on a journey as we explore the incredible privilege of being hosts of God's presence in our lives and how it leads to deep rest.

We delve into the story of Moses meeting with God on Mount Sinai, where God's presence was vital for the survival of His people. We discover that God's promise to Moses, "My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest," extends to us through Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.

This presence of God is the key to finding rest, just as King David knew when he declared, "The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want." His presence and rest are intimately linked, providing strength, hope, healing, and comfort in our lives.

We see the fulfillment of God's promise through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, as prophesied by Joel and experienced by the early Christians. Now, God's presence dwells within us, making us temples of the Holy Spirit.

To better host God's presence and experience deep rest, we explore practical steps like a life of worship, prayer, awareness of His presence, and living in unity and community. Ultimately, as we embrace His presence, we become agents of change, spreading a kingdom culture wherever we go.

Join us on this journey to discover how hosting God's presence leads to deep rest and transforms our lives. Don't forget to like, subscribe, and share this message with those seeking rest and peace in a troubled world.

The TABERNACLE that GOD commanded MOSES to build with very precise instructions (including an outer layer of what many Bible scholars believe to be porpoise skin or some other kind of marine mammal) - Everything about the tabernacle in some way represents CHRIST. We will be exploring how that outer layer of porpoise skin on the tabernacle represents Christ.

St Cuthberts Church Message 11 May 2025

In this July 20, 2025 sermon exploring Luke 10:38-42 and Colossians 1:15-28, we examine the familiar story of Mary and Martha through the lens of Christ's reconciling presence. The sermon unpacks how Mary's radical choice to sit at Jesus' feet connects with Paul's cosmic vision of Christ as "the firstborn of all creation." Through three movements - Martha's dilemma, Mary's unconventional response, and Jesus' affirmation of "the better part" - we discover how choosing relationship with Christ over anxious activity transforms both individual discipleship and community life. This message speaks to our modern struggles between doing and being, challenging us to center our lives on the One who reconciles all things and offers what cannot be taken away.

Choosing the Good Part
