    Costs Nothing - Worth Nothing - Ps Matt Wyatt

    What is your worship actually worth? King David was offered everything he needed for an offering, free of charge, and he turned it down: "I will not offer to the LORD my God that which costs me nothing" (2 Samuel 24:24). In this message from Manningham Christian Church, Ps Matt unpacks Hebrews 13:12–16 and the "sacrifice of praise". Worship is far bigger than the songs we sing on a Sunday. It's the response of our whole life to who God is.   We look at three things: 1. Worship's Source: it starts with His affection. We love Him because He first loved us (1 John 4:19). Through the woman with the alabaster flask (Luke 7), we see why those who know they've been forgiven much, love much. 2. Worship's Sacrifice: it costs me something. From David at the threshing floor to Abraham on Mount Moriah, and the warning of Amos 5 that worship without justice is just noise. 3. Worship's Shaping: it changes everything. We become like what we gaze upon (2 Corinthians 3:18), and the Father is seeking those who worship in spirit and truth (John 4:23–24). This week's challenge: THANK. GIVE. GAZE. - Write down three specific thank-yous every day. - Do one costly act of worship: do good or share. - Give God the first five minutes of your day, before the phone. "Worship is not a song I sing — it's my whole life I bring." Scriptures: Hebrews 13:12–16 · 2 Samuel 24:24 · Luke 7:36–50 · 1 John 4:19 · Genesis 22:12 · Amos 5:21–24 · Romans 12:1 · Isaiah 61:3 · 2 Corinthians 3:18 · Matthew 4:8–10 · John 4:23–24 · Psalm 99:5 Manningham Christian Church, Melbourne.

    Leading Ourselves in the Way of Jesus | Justin Stockman | Manningham Christian Church

    Before we can lead anyone else well (our families, our teams, our church), we have to learn to lead ourselves. And Jesus shows us how. This Sunday we were joined by guest speaker Justin Stockman from Bethel Atlanta. He challenged us to look honestly at what’s going on inside us. So many of us are busy on the outside but running on empty on the inside. We lead from exhaustion, isolation or unmet needs, often without realising it. Justin invites us to notice those places and to see them as an invitation to grow, not a reason for shame. Jesus led from an overflowing inner life, deeply rooted in His relationship with the Father. As we follow His way, we can move from leading out of deficit to leading out of fullness. That kind of transformation starts within and happens in relationship with God and His people. Whether you lead a ministry, a workplace, a household or just your own heart, this message is for you. About Justin Stockman Justin and his wife Jenn have been leading people for more than twenty years, from the stage, in groups and in one-on-one coaching. They have served in leadership at Bethel Atlanta since 2013. Together they founded Internal Leadership Experience (ILE), which helps leaders grow internally and lead from wholeness. They live in Georgia, USA, with their four daughters. 🔗 Connect with Justin & Jenn Website: https://justinandjennstockman.com Take the ILE Assessment: https://justin-lgnn6hm6.scoreapp.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@justinandjennstockman 📍 Manningham Christian Church Join us Sunday in Manningham, Melbourne.

    ARISE - What you recieve matters! Ps Matt Wyatt

    Part 1 — What You Receive Matters (James 1:21-25) We all know the feeling of hearing something true, nodding along, and forgetting it by lunchtime. James calls that a mirror problem. In Part 1 of this two-part study closing out James chapter 1, we unpack the implanted word — a seed grafted into your soul with the power to save it — and why hearing was never meant to be the finish line. Three points: The Seed, The Selfie, and The Steady Gaze. James 1:21-25, NKJV. Part 2, "What You Spray Matters," follows next episode.

    BAPTISM - The Water, The What and the Why - Ps Matt Wyatt

    What's really going on when someone goes under the water? In this episode, Ps Matthew Wyatt separates baptism from the traditions we've often confused it with — christenings, dedications, and "just what our family's always done" — and walks through what Scripture actually says it is, why Jesus commanded it, and what it asks of us afterward. Drawing on pictures from Noah's ark, the Israelites crossing the Red Sea, and Paul's writing on being "buried and raised" with Christ, this message makes the case that baptism was never meant to be a box to tick — it's a funeral for your old self and a birth for the new one. Expect some honest reflection on tradition versus Scripture, a story or two that'll make you laugh, and a straightforward challenge for anyone who's been putting the decision off. A message for anyone who's ever nodded along at a baptism without quite knowing what it meant.

    The Feasts of the Lord in the Gospel - Laurence Hirsch

    In this powerful message, Laurence Hirsch of Celebrate Messiah unpacks the rich significance of the Feast of Trumpets and the Feast of Atonement — two ancient appointed times that call us to wake up, examine our hearts, and get ready for what's coming. Laurence shows how these feasts speak directly into our everyday walk with God, and points forward to their ultimate fulfillment: the "Last Trumpet Call" at the return of Jesus. A timely, stirring word for anyone longing to live ready for His coming.

    ARISE: To Be First | James 1:9-20 | Ps Matt Wyatt

    ARISE: To Be First | James 1:9-20 | Manningham Christian Church Where does sin actually come from — and who's really to blame when we fall into temptation? In this message from our ARISE series, we dig into James 1:9-20 and uncover three truths: the world's ranking system gets completely flipped in Christ, sin has a genealogy that starts small and ends in death, and God — the Father of lights — never changes, no matter how much everything else around us does. We land it all in two of the most practical verses in James: be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath. 📖 James 1:9-20 (NKJV) 🔑 THREE POINTS The Flip — status in Christ overturns status in the world (vv. 9-11) The Family Tree — sin is conceived, born, and grows up to kill (vv. 12-15) The Faithful Father — with God, there is no variation or shadow of turning (vv. 16-18) 👉 So then... arise. Swift to hear. Slow to speak. Slow to wrath. #ARISE #JamesSeries #ManninghamChristianChurch #SundaySermon #Temptation #FaithfulFather
