  1. Sermon - 6. You shall not murder - Exodus 20:1-13

    Sermon - 6. You shall not murder - Exodus 20:1-13

    Sermon Series: The Ten CommandmentsSermon Title: 6. You Shall Not MurderBible Passage: Exodus 20:1–13Preacher: Robin VonkDate & Time: Sunday, 8 March 2026 | 9:30am The command “You shall not murder” may seem straightforward, yet it reaches far deeper than the act itself. In Exodus 20:13, God affirms the sacred value of human life—life created in His image and worthy of dignity, protection, and care. This command calls God’s people not only to refrain from violence, but to cultivate hearts that value and preserve life. In this sermon, we will see that this command exposes more than outward behaviour. As Jesus later teaches, anger, hatred, and contempt can also reveal hearts that fall short of God’s intention for human relationships. God’s law shows us how seriously He values life, while also revealing how deeply we need His mercy. The gospel speaks powerfully into this reality. Jesus Christ, the innocent one, was put to death by sinful humanity. Yet through His death and resurrection, God brings forgiveness and new life to those who turn to Him. The cross exposes the depth of human sin while displaying the greater depth of God’s grace. In Christ, we are forgiven for the ways we have harmed others in thought, word, or deed, and we are transformed to become people who seek peace, reconciliation, and the flourishing of life. As part of The Ten Commandments series, this message will help us see that God’s command is not merely a restriction—it is a call to cherish life as He does. Through the power of the gospel, we are invited to move from anger to grace, from destruction to restoration, reflecting the life-giving character of the God who made us.

  2. Sermon - 5.  Honour your Parents - Exodus 20:1-12

    Sermon - 5.  Honour your Parents - Exodus 20:1-12

    Sermon Series: The Ten CommandmentsSermon Title: 5. Honour Your ParentsBible Passage: Exodus 20:1–12Preacher: Ian MorrisonDate & Time: Sunday, 1 March 2026 | 6:00pm The fifth commandment marks a turning point in the Ten Commandments—moving from our relationship with God to our relationships with others. In Exodus 20:12, God calls His people to honour their father and mother, grounding family life in respect, gratitude, and trust. This command is both deeply practical and profoundly spiritual, shaping the way we understand authority, responsibility, and love. In Honour Your Parents, we will explore what it truly means to honour—not merely outward obedience, but a heart posture that values, respects, and seeks the good of those God has placed in authority over us. For some, this command brings gratitude and joy; for others, it raises questions shaped by pain or disappointment. God’s word speaks into all of it with wisdom and grace. The gospel meets us here as well. None of us have honoured perfectly—whether as children or as parents. Yet Jesus did. He honoured His earthly parents and perfectly obeyed His heavenly Father, even to the point of death on a cross. Where we have failed in love and obedience, Christ has been faithful. Through His death and resurrection, we are forgiven for our shortcomings and adopted into God’s family, learning what true honour looks like through His Spirit at work in us. As part of The Ten Commandments series, this sermon will show how this command is not simply about family structure, but about reflecting the character of God in our relationships. In Christ, we are given both the example and the grace to honour well, building homes and communities shaped by humility, respect, and love.

    Sermon - 4. Remember the Sabbath - Exodus 20:1-11

    Sermon Series: The Ten CommandmentsSermon Title: 4. Remember the SabbathBible Passage: Exodus 20:1–11Preacher: Robin VonkDate & Time: Sunday, 22 February 2026 | 9:30 am In Exodus 20:1–11, the command to remember the Sabbath stands as both a gift and a challenge. In a restless world driven by productivity and pressure, God calls His people to stop, to rest, and to trust. The Sabbath is not merely about a day off—it is about remembering who God is, what He has done, and where true life is found. We see that this command is rooted in creation and redemption. God rested after His work of creation, setting a rhythm of work and worship into the fabric of life. He also rescued His people from slavery, reminding them that they are no longer defined by endless labour but by His saving grace. Yet the Sabbath ultimately points beyond itself to the gospel. We often live as though everything depends on us—our effort, our control, our success. But in Jesus Christ, the work that truly matters has already been accomplished. Through His life, death, and resurrection, Jesus secures our salvation, inviting us into a deeper rest: freedom from striving to earn God’s favour. He calls the weary to come to Him and find rest for their souls. As part of The Ten Commandments series, this sermon will help us rediscover Sabbath not as a burden, but as a blessing. It is a weekly reminder that God is Creator, Redeemer, and Sustainer—and that in Christ, we can cease from our anxious labour and trust in His finished work.

    Sermon - 3. You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain - Exodus 20:1-7

    Sermon Series: The Ten CommandmentsSermon Title: 3. You Shall Not Take the Name of the LORD Your God in VainBible Passage: Exodus 20:1–7Preacher: Robin VonkDate & Time: Sunday, 15 February 2026 | 9:30 am God’s name is not just a word—it reveals His character, His covenant love, and His holy authority. In Exodus 20:1–7, the third commandment calls God’s people to honour His name, refusing to misuse it in careless speech, empty promises, or hypocritical living. In this sermon, we will see that this command reaches far beyond avoiding certain phrases. It confronts the way we represent God with our words, our worship, and our lives. To bear His name is a privilege—but it is also a responsibility. This sermon will also show how the gospel speaks into our failure. We have not honoured God’s name as we should. We have spoken lightly, lived inconsistently, and at times claimed His name without reflecting His heart. Yet Jesus perfectly honoured His Father’s name. In every word and deed, Christ revealed the glory of God without distortion. At the cross, He bore the judgment we deserve for dishonouring God, and through His resurrection, He restores us to a life that reflects God’s holiness and grace. As part of The Ten Commandments series, this message will invite us to treasure God’s name, to speak it with reverence, and to live in a way that brings Him honour. Empowered by the gospel, we are not only warned against misuse—we are called into joyful witness, bearing His name faithfully before the world.

  6. Sermon - 2. You shall not make for yourself an idol - Exodus 20:1-6

    Sermon - 2. You shall not make for yourself an idol - Exodus 20:1-6

    Sermon Series: The Ten CommandmentsSermon Title: 2. You Shall Not Make for Yourself an IdolBible Passage: Exodus 20:1–6Preacher: Robin VonkDate & Time: Sunday, 8 February 2026 | 6:00pm The second commandment goes deeper than what we worship—it confronts how we worship. In Exodus 20:1–6, God forbids His people from making images to represent Him or replacing Him with something they can see, shape, or control. At its heart, this command reveals a God who cannot be reduced, managed, or remade in our image. In this sermon, we will explore how idolatry is not only about statues and shrines but also about distorting God to fit our preferences. Even well-intentioned hearts can create a god who is safer, more convenient, or more comfortable than the living Lord who reveals Himself in His word. This sermon will show how the gospel speaks directly into this struggle. Left to ourselves, we reshape God and give our devotion to created things. But God, in grace, makes Himself known—not through an image, but through a person. Jesus Christ is the true image of the invisible God. In His life, death, and resurrection, God reveals His holiness, mercy, and love in a way no idol ever could. Through Christ, we are forgiven for false worship and restored to a right relationship with the God who shows steadfast love to thousands who love Him. As part of The Ten Commandments series, this message will call us to reject false images of God and to worship Him as He truly is—listening to His voice, trusting His character, and delighting in the grace He has revealed in Jesus.

    Sermon - 1. You shall have no other gods before me - Exodus 20:1-3

    Sermon Series: The Ten CommandmentsSermon Title: 1. You Shall Have No Other Gods Before MeBible Passage: Exodus 20:1–3Preacher: Robin VonkDate & Time: Sunday, 1 February 2026 | 6:00pm The Ten Commandments do not begin with rules, but with grace. Before God calls His people to obedience, He reminds them that He is the Lord who rescued them from slavery. In this sermon, Robin will explore the first and foundational commandment—and why it still speaks powerfully to our hearts today. In Exodus 20:1–3, God declares His exclusive claim on His people’s worship. He alone is worthy of trust, devotion, and allegiance. Yet this command also exposes how easily our hearts turn to lesser gods (i.e. security, success, comfort, relationships, or control), looking to them for the life only God can give. This sermon will show how the gospel fulfils this commandment. We have all failed to love God above all else, but Jesus never did. Where we have placed other gods before the Lord, Christ remained perfectly faithful. Through His life, death, and resurrection, Jesus frees us not only from guilt but from the false gods that enslave us. In Him, we are forgiven and invited back into wholehearted worship of the one true God. As we begin The Ten Commandments series, this message will help us see that God’s law is not a burden, but a gift—calling us away from what cannot save and toward the only God who truly gives life.

  8. Sermon - Boldness in the Face of Opposition | Mitch Cornford - Acts 4:1-21

    Sermon - Boldness in the Face of Opposition | Mitch Cornford - Acts 4:1-21

    Sermon Series: Witnesses for ChristSermon Title: Boldness in the Face of OppositionBible Passage: Acts 4:1–21Preacher: Mitch CornfordDate & Time: Sunday, 25 January 2026 | 6:00 pm In Acts 4, the first miracle-fuelled witness of the church is met not with celebration, but with resistance. Peter and John are arrested, questioned, and warned to stop speaking in the name of Jesus. Yet instead of retreating in fear, they speak with remarkable clarity and courage. Boldness in the Face of Opposition explores where that courage comes from—and why it still matters today. At the heart of their boldness is the gospel itself. Peter proclaims that Jesus Christ, whom the leaders crucified, has been raised from the dead by God, and that salvation is found in no one else. The same name that brought healing to a broken man now stands as the only hope for a broken world. Opposition cannot silence this message, because it is rooted in the power of the risen Christ. This sermon will show that gospel boldness is not confidence in ourselves, but trust in Jesus. The apostles are ordinary, untrained men, yet their courage exposes an extraordinary reality: they have been with Jesus. Even when threatened, they choose obedience to God over approval from people, convinced that what they have seen and heard cannot be kept quiet. As part of the Witnesses for Christ series, this message will challenge and encourage us to stand firm in our faith. In a world that may resist the claims of Christ, we are called to speak the truth in love, trusting that the same gospel that sustained the early church still gives boldness, hope, and life today.
