    Deacons: Servants Who Guard the Church’s Godliness

    Deacons originate from Acts 6, where godly servants were appointed to protect unity and ensure fair care for the vulnerable. Their role mirrors Christ, the ultimate servant who gave Himself for others. While all believers are called to serve, deacons are set apart to ensure every ministry reflects God’s character. Their work—whether finances, child safety, or practical care—preserves gospel integrity and strengthens the church’s witness. Passage: 1 Timothy 3:8-17 Date: 16 August 2026

    The Church’s Shepherds: Elders Who Lead, Protect, and Love the Flock

    Elders are Christlike shepherds who oversee, teach, protect, and nurture the church. Their authority is limited by Scripture and expressed through humble burden-bearing love. True qualification is character, not gifting—men who resemble Jesus and “fit the mould” of 1 Timothy 3. Their priorities shape the church’s priorities, and their care strengthens the spiritual health of the whole body. Passage: 1 Timothy 3:1-7 Date: 9 August 2026

    When Justice Breaks Down: God’s Mercy in a Violent World

    Genesis 34–35 exposes the collapse of human justice—Jacob’s fearful silence and Simeon and Levi’s violent revenge. The sermon contrasts these flawed responses with God’s perfect justice: patient, measured, and rooted in mercy. Quoting Exodus 34, it shows how only Christ resolves the paradox of a God who forgives yet punishes sin. Jesus bears the guilt we deserve, offering hope where human justice fails. Passage: Genesis 34-35 Date: 2nd August 2026

    Faithful Provision and Protection: God’s Care for Jacob

    Jacob’s years under Laban were marked by exploitation, yet God provided abundantly, multiplying Jacob’s flocks despite Laban’s deceit. As the sermon says, “God was the one who caused those flocks to have so many… offspring.” When Laban pursued Jacob with harmful intent, God protected him, warning Laban in a dream. This passage shows God’s faithfulness in both provision and protection. Passage: Genesis 30:25-31:55 Date: 19 July 2026

    Providence in the Mess: How God Works Through Jacob, Leah, and Rachel

    Genesis 29 reveals God’s hidden providence in Jacob’s life—guiding him through blessing, discipline, and redemption. Though Jacob is deceived by Laban, God uses the hardship to shape him. Leah, unloved and overlooked, becomes the one God sees and honours: “When the Lord saw that Leah was hated, he opened her womb.” Through her son Judah, God begins the line that will bring forth Christ. Passage: Genesis 29:1-35 Date: 12 July 2026

    The Blessed Life: Honesty, Rest, and Returning to God

    Genesis 27 reveals a family undone by deception as Jacob steals Esau’s blessing through lies and manipulation. The sermon highlights how “all you see at every turn is lies, anger, deception everywhere,” yet God still fulfills His promises. We learn that blessing cannot be gained through deceit or self‑reliance but through honest dependence on God, who adopts unworthy people and leads them into true rest. Passage: Genesis 27:1-17, 30-45 Date: 5 July 2026

    Choosing Now Over Forever

    This sermon shows how Esau, Isaac, and even Adam and Eve chose immediate pleasure over God’s lasting promises. “Esau sold his birthright for some stew.” We often do the same, trading eternal joy for momentary comfort. But God calls us to trust Him, as Isaac did when he stayed in the land and was blessed a hundredfold. Christ holds our inheritance secure, enabling us to resist temporary temptations and pursue lasting joy. Passage: Genesis 25:19-34 Date: 28 June 2026

    Marriage, Covenant, and the God Who Provides

    Genesis 24 reveals God’s providence in bringing Isaac and Rebecca together and highlights marriage as a covenant shaped by God’s character. Derek shows why Christians must approach marriage deliberately, how marriage reflects Christ and the Church, and how the gospel alone restores purity and heals our failures. As he says, “Marriage stands as a pillar… holy and wonderful.” Passage: Genesis 24 Date: 21 June 2026
