We live in a time of great questioning about the soul of Christian faith. In this message Pastor Fran unpacks how Jesus engaged fully with our humanity rather than steering us back into a narrow religious framework for life.

In this sermon, Pastor Fran talks about how Jesus is more than the modern Christian package which he illustrates by distinguishing the difference between Christ, the Church and Christianity. He then encourages an honest and self reflective journey of the heart towards restoration and towards the life of freedom and wholeness.

These days more people are getting honest about the variety of things found in the Bible, and it's causing some people to abandon it. Today Pastor Fran unpacks some things we've been taught about the Bible, and how Jesus spoke about it in a way that allows us to accept the Bible as it is, love it even more, and let it point us to the finding of real life.

In this sermon, Pastor Fran talks about why he is still a Christian - even with the past events of questionable church credibility. When we come out into the deep with Jesus, our faith can remain unshaken - no matter the past or present hurt of churches who have lost the plot.

In this sermon, Pastor Fran touches on how we as humans tend to make identities for ourselves and wear our failures that shroud us in so much darkness. Because of Jesus, our identity is recreated and we don't have to wear our failures. We cling to hope that God is restoring all things in due time.

In today's message, Pastor Fran explores what it means that we have become one with Christ in his death, and consequently one with him and his resurrection. He also touches on the fascinating way the early Christians spoke about how God tricked death and the devil by getting them to swallow Christ and bring him inside their walls... and that they never saw coming what happened after that.
