    The Courage of Faith: Joshua 2:8-14

    Speaking on Joshua 2:8-14 at Kingsthorpe Church of Christ, Australia, on the 3rd of August, 2025, Jarrod talks about the goodness of God. Is the God of the New Testament, the same as the God of the Old Testament? It’s a question many ask, and this passage helps paint a picture.


  • The Call to Courage: Joshua 1:1-9

    Jarrod’s sermon at Kingsthorpe Church emphasizes understanding God’s character rather than just His deeds. Using Joshua 1:1-9, he highlights God’s encouragement to Joshua to be strong and courageous as he leads Israel into the Promised Land. And the importance of meditating on God’s Word for guidance and strength is crucial in fulfilling one’s calling.

  • Striving for Christ: Philippians 3:12-4:1

    Striving for Christ: Philippians 3:12-4:1

    Introduction: When you picture a gravestone, what are your initial thoughts? If you’re anything like me, you’ve been asked a hundred times: “what do you want your gravestone to say?” These are well-meaning questions, asking us to think about the legacy that we’ll leave behind when we depart from this life. Last week Steve challenged…


  • The Journey of Humility: Matthew 18:1-10

    The Journey of Humility: Matthew 18:1-10

    Jesus spent the majority of His ministry teaching the disciples and His other followers how to treat one another. How is it that we as followers of Christ are to behave and accordingly, treat each other?


  • When Fear and Faith Collide: Galatians 2:15-21

    When Fear and Faith Collide: Galatians 2:15-21

    I wonder… what is your picture of church? What should a church look like? When I ask you to picture the perfect church, perhaps these images come to mind. Something traditional, even catholic. You might be chasing a spiritual high, raised hands praising God with thousands of other Christians. Here’s St Basil’s Cathedral in Moscow. Beautiful, isn’t…


  • The Just & The Justifier: Romans 3:21-26

    The Just & The Justifier: Romans 3:21-26

    A Holy God: 2 Samuel 12:1-14

    Speaking from 2 Samuel 12:1-14, Jarrod discusses the sovereignty and goodness of God. In the face of evil and sin, is God truly good?


  • The Joy of the Lord: Acts 5:17-42.

    The Joy of the Lord: Acts 5:17-42.

    Continuing through the book of Acts, we find that the church in Jerusalem has been growing. Early in chapter four, Luke advises there are 5,000 men counted in their number, and this is within a 2-year period of Christ’s ascension. The Holy Spirit is moving and growing His church. As dad mentioned last week, in…


  • The Community of Faith: Acts 2:42-47.

    The Community of Faith: Acts 2:42-47.

    Last year’s census results show a new change for our region. Historically, Catholicism has had a stronghold as the most popular religion. Last year though, that changed to “no religion”. In the 5 years from 2016 to 2021, there was an 11% growth in this group. They went from 20.7% of people to 31.7%. For…


  • Running the Race: Hebrews 12:1-11.

    Running the Race: Hebrews 12:1-11.

    Continuing our walk through the book of Hebrews, this week we come to chapter 12. This is arguably the most important chapter of the book, where the author draws on all the information presented to encourage and endorse their intended audience. To provide a quick sketch of what has already been discussed, the letter focuses…


  • Jesus Transforms: John 2:1-11.

    Jesus Transforms: John 2:1-11.

    Good morning church. It’s good to be back with you this morning! Last time I was up here it was due to an assessment in my studies, this time, however, I believe I’m here simply because Dad didn’t want to preach the day after his 59th Birthday! Growing up, I have many fond memories with…


  • What’s Your Foundation? Colossians 2:6-15.

    What’s Your Foundation? Colossians 2:6-15.

    A few years ago, before I met my wife, my world was flipped on its head. You see, I had entered a relationship that I was not emotionally, mentally, or spiritually mature enough for. Even though I was a Christian, this other person became my number one priority. As a Christian, I’m supposed to place…
