Mentor

Make Disciples

February 25, 2024 • Adrian Porter • Hebrews 6:1–3, 1 Corinthians 4:15–17, Matthew 28:19–20

If you don't change how we worship, it's like building your house on sand. Build strong foundations in others. Develop a life time of learning culture in ourselves. Develop a disciple making way of life. What can I do today? Invest ourselves in community life and have a next generation basis. We live in a broken world, so mentors are needed to speak into their lives.

Leaving a Legacy

May 26, 2024 • Adrian Porter • Colossians 1:3–8, Colossians 4:12–13, John 12:24, Philemon 23

This is our time to see the ripple spreading out and making Disciples to help others and starting other legacies. There are some big characters in the bible: Epaphras is one of them although he is only mentioned in the bible three times. He changed his area of the world - Turkey. Epaphras went from Colossae to Ephesus during Paul's stay at Ephesus. He was known as a servant of Christ Jesus. Paul was talking about everyone as being slaves, we are slaves to Jesus, with a master who loves us and gave his life for us. God came to set the captive free.

Clothed In Power

May 19, 2024 • Chris Staples • 2 Corinthians 12:9–10, Judges 6:34, 1 Chronicles 12:18, 2 Chronicles 24:20, Isaiah 40:29–31

Feeling weak and overwhelmed? In this episode of the "Making Disciples" series, Chris Staples explores how God's power can strengthen us in our moments of weakness. He dives into 2 Corinthians 12:9-10, where Paul emphasises that God's grace is sufficient and his power is made perfect in weakness. We are also encouraged by examples in the Old Testament (Judges 6:34, 1 Chronicles 12:18, 2 Chronicles 24:20) of how the Holy Spirit clothed individuals with power to accomplish God's work. Discover how being "Clothed in Power" from God can equip you with: * Strength for the Weak: God empowers those who feel inadequate (Isaiah 40:29-31). * Peace for the Troubled: The Holy Spirit replaces fear with God's love and peace (2 Timothy 1:7). This message also explores how God can use our weaknesses to His glory. The key people Chris mentions are: * Gideon (Judges 6:34) * Amasai (1 Chronicles 12:18) * Zechariah (2 Chronicles 24:20) * Disciples (Luke 24:49) * Paul (2 Corinthians 12:9-10)
