Looking for something fun for the kids to do in the September/ October school holidays? We are excited to open our doors to the Kedron community.

Our Kids Holiday Club program will encourage kids to explore through games, craft, music, food and bible stories. There is also a huge, free, family fun night.

Saved to Serve

Humility is not a particularly popular virtue today. In fact it’s probably seen as sign of weakness. We are taught to promote ourselves and encouraged to “have a bit of attitude”. So what does Jesus think? In today’s message we see Jesus turning the world’s values upside-down, and in a most dramatic way. To make yourself a slave to someone else seems ludicrous, yet that’s exactly what Jesus has done for us on the cross. In divine humility He took our place in order that we might be washed clean from our sin. How should we respond to this? By now following Christ in serving others.

Trusting Jesus

During his lifetime Jesus attracted many followers, admirers and even enemies. It seems that people were drawn to him, wherever he went. Listen as Pastor Dave looks at Matthew 8 at what it takes to truly follow Jesus. To be his disciple.

Giving Everything For Jesus

Surely one of the more bizarre incidents in Jesus’ life happened during the final few days prior to His crucifixion. During a meal with His friends, Mary of Bethany quite unexpectedly anointed Jesus with 300-400mls of the most expensive imported perfume, then wiped His feet with her hair. Why did she do it? What about the expense? How about the waste of money? Through this act of extreme generosity and devotion, Mary challenges the way every Christian ought to respond to Jesus. As we consider all that Christ has done for us, especially His death on the cross, is there anything we should not be willing to gladly give to Him?

“Lord, please change me”

We like to think of the Christian life as smooth-sailing and relatively free from the sins and evils of this world. But for most Christians the journey involves many challenges which affect our growth and progress in the Christian life. We know God wants us to become increasingly like Christ, but so often we find ourselves battling with our own sinfulness and the devil’s schemes. How can we change? How can we overcome those sinful habits or defeat those recurring temptations? In this message Pastor Murray urges us to honest self-examination and serious action, so that with God’s help we really can change and grow, and become more like Christ.

Gillian Asquith: Are You A Cats Cradle Christian

Women of Purpose 2014 – Afternoon Keynote Session The Christian life is like a race – the training can be tough, and we can easily become entangled as we struggle on. But we run by faith, with our eyes fixed on Christ, in the reality of the eternal hope that we possess. Recorded live at City North Baptist Church.

Gillian Asquith: Better In Every Way

Women of Purpose 2014 – Morning Keynote Session The writer of Hebrews encourages believers to “draw near (to God) with a true heart in full assurance of faith” (10:22). However in the Old Testament, worshippers could never approach God without the priest offering blood sacrifices on their behalf. How can it be possible to approach God just as we are? Because Jesus is better in every way. Recorded live at City North Baptist Church.
