The Power of the Gospel

Genuine Love, Romans 12

Genuine Love, Romans 12
Paul Shoemark

What does it look like for a life to be transformed by God's mercy? Exploring Romans 12, Paul reflects on worship as all of life, being renewed rather than conformed to the world, using God's gifts open-handedly to build up the church, and overcoming evil with good.

A Story of Mercy for All, Romans 11

A Story of Mercy for All, Romans 11
Andrew Southerton

What happens when we turn an undeserved gift into a reason to feel superior? In Romans 11, Paul pictures one olive tree, with branches broken off and wild ones grafted in by grace alone. Andrew explores how God's mercy to Jew and Gentile leaves no room for boasting, and every reason to worship (Romans 11:33–36).

Righteousness That Comes by Faith, Romans 9:30-10:21

Righteousness That Comes by Faith, Romans 9:30-10:21
Tim Maddock

How can someone spend their whole life pursuing God and still miss him? In Romans 9:30–10:21, Tim explores the surprising reality that righteousness isn't something we achieve — it's something God holds out for us to receive by faith in Jesus. And if it comes by faith, it's available to everyone who calls on him.

God's Sovereign Mercy, Romans 9:1-29

God’s Sovereign Mercy, Romans 9:1-29
Andrew Southerton

Are God's promises too good to be true? In Romans 9, Paul wrestles with a hard question — if so many of Israel rejected Jesus, has God's word failed? This message explores how our place in God's family never rested on privilege or effort, but entirely on his sovereign mercy — and why that changes everything.
