Picture this: you're out in public watching as a bunch of important men carrying a young woman. She's not well, possibly not even breathing. They place her awkwardly at the feet of this guy called Jesus. As you listen in, you realise they're not asking him to heal her. They're asking him to give them the green light to publicly humiliate her and then to execute her for her sin.



You close your eyes and walk away, not wanting to see the scene unfold any further. A few minutes go by, and by then you can't resist--you turn around and see her still there at his feet. The men who brought her have gone. It's just Jesus left standing there. He reaches out and grabs for her hand.

Who is it that's in charge of the world today? Who's pulling the strings? Is it the elite establishment in Canberra or in the board rooms of big corporations? Or is the real power in the hands of the silent majority--ordinary people who work hard to build their families and communities?



No matter how you answer that question--one thing is true. No one was ready--not the elites, not the 'normies'--to meet a Saviour like Jesus. No one was ready to admit that their time was short. That they had a deep thirst for something more that nothing on earth could satisfy.



Jesus was ready with an invitation like none other.

Last week Jesus made it clear that no one comes to believe the Gospel unless God the Father does a work to draw a person in. But that doesn't mean that refusing to believe always looks the same. It doesn't mean that a person who doesn't believe today won't believe in Jesus tomorrow.How do we understand the sin of unbelief--the sin that lies at the root of all other sin? How do we spot evidence of unbelief in our own hearts and minds? This week we'll be taking a look at least three types of unbelievers and unbelief on display during one encounter with Jesus. The goal is that we recognise unbelief not just in others, but in ourselves.Join us at 10:00 as we continue our journey through the Gospel of John. 

Who could refuse free bread? It's pretty common these days to leave bread uneaten on the table. Not so much in Bible times. So when Jesus compared Himself to free bread, you'd think people would be super keen. But instead, many walked away.

What is it about Jesus, the Bread of Life, that attracts some and repels others? And what did Jesus mean when He told his followers to eat....his flesh?!? Come this Sunday to find out.

Did you know that Jesus’ most talked about miracle in the Bible is the time he turned a boy’s lunch into a feed for a crowd of thousands? And if that’s true, why are there still so many hungry people today?Get excited for this Sunday when Tyson leads us further and deeper into the life and times of Jesus. You’ll have to see Him to believe.

Last week we heard that Jesus is the only true and perfect judge of every person. But what happens when the judge becomes the accused? How will Jesus defend Himself? What witnesses will he call to help us get to the truth?

The witnesses Jesus calls to the stand don't just benefit the original audience--they benefit us too. Listening to their testimony just might open the door to abundant, eternal life.
