As public debate heats up in politics, on social media platforms, and society in general. Where does one go to find agreement, or any sense of unity? Jesus seemed to think that His followers would show the way. Join us this week as Mandy Stark walks us through the final section of Jesus’ last prayer for those who follow him. You might be surprised and challenged at the confidence and clarity Jesus has about their unity. Key Scripture John 17:1-26

When Jesus speaks of love, he speaks of something far more demanding. Join us this week as Mike Riddell unpacks Jesus’ New Commandment to those who follow him. Be ready to be surprised, not only by the demands he makes for those who wish to follow him, but at the promises that come with them.Key ScriptureJohn 15:9-17

Some years ago he wrote the following lyrics to a song called, "Follow Me". It challenges me, and in the light of our current series, to ask, "Am I Following Jesus?"I met this preacher from Australia―He'd read the Bible searching for its dominant themes―And he counted 87 times when Jesus said, "Follow me!"Well, you know that got me thinking.Maybe that's the bottom line of what "Christian" means.Cause "I follow Jesus" is deeper than "I believe."It doesn't take much to mentally agree.Wit

The word “lost” can describe experiences emotionally, physically, spiritually, and socially. When we are “lost” in these ways it can be very difficult to find a way out. Jesus made some radical claims about how he can help those who choose to follow him to find their bearings when they are lost. Join us this week as we explore what it looks like to not only know ‘The Way’ but learn to consistently walk in it.Key ScriptureJohn 14:1-14

The only one to do the dishes, to wash the car, to vacuum the floors, to mow the lawns, to feed the kids? The only one to turn up, to cook the supper, to fill the roster, to look out for others? In this week’s passage, Jesus takes the disciples through an entirely different understanding of service to others. Join us as Bill Brown explores an awkward moment among Jesus and his disciples that cuts straight to the heart of serving and what it means for those who wish to follow him.Key ScriptureJohn 13:1-17
