    03 | A Marriage - Knowing God | HOSEA | Hosea 4-6 | Hannah Hylton

    In this message, Hannah Hylton continues our series in Hosea by exploring chapters 4 to 6, focusing especially on Hosea 6:1–6 and the invitation to truly know God. Hosea reveals a powerful picture of God’s relationship with His people, like a marriage that has been repeatedly broken by unfaithfulness. Israel had turned away from God, pursuing idols and trusting in other solutions instead of seeking Him. Yet even in their wandering, God’s desire was never simply to expose their sin, but to restore them to relationship. In this passage we see that God’s correction is not driven by anger, but by healing love. “He has torn us that He may heal us.” Like a bone that must sometimes be reset to heal properly, God lovingly convicts His people so that they can return to wholeness with Him. This message also distinguishes between conviction, which leads us back to God, and shame, which leaves us stuck and distant from Him. Hannah also explores the difference between knowing about God and truly knowing Him. Hosea calls us to “press on to know the Lord”, to pursue relationship, not just information. God desires steadfast love and genuine knowledge of Him rather than empty religious activity. This talk is a call to examine our own hearts, to turn away from idols and distractions, and to respond to God’s invitation to deeper relationship. As we bring our lives before Him in repentance and openness, we discover that His goal has always been restoration, intimacy, and life with Him.

    02 | A Marriage - Broken and Restored | HOSEA | Hosea 2 & 3 | Dave Carter

    In this message, we continue in Hosea, looking at chapters 2 and 3 and the picture of two broken marriages, Hosea and Gomer and ultimately God and His people. We see how the relationship breaks down through unfaithfulness, self-sufficiency, and simply forgetting God. But what’s so powerful in this passage is that instead of walking away, God says, “Therefore… I will allure her.” He pursues. He speaks tenderly. He turns a valley of trouble into a door of hope. This is a story about consequences, yes, but even more, it’s a story about covenant faithfulness. God doesn’t cancel His promises. He restores. He redeems. He refines. Hosea buying Gomer back is a beautiful picture of what Christ has done for us. We were bought with a price. And while restoration can be messy and painful, God’s goal is always intimacy and that we would truly know Him.

    01 | An Unfaithful People Loved by a Faithful God | HOSEA | Hosea 1-2:1 | Philip Richardson

    In this sermon, Philip Richardson ( a member of Freedom Church Romford, holds a Ph.D. in Biblical Studies, and serves as the Director of Theological Education for OMS), introduces the book of Hosea and unpacks the powerful message of chapter 1. Set in a time of political turmoil and spiritual unfaithfulness, Hosea’s life becomes a living illustration of God’s relationship with His people. Philip explores Hosea’s marriage to Gomer and the symbolic meaning behind the names of their children, revealing both the seriousness of spiritual drift and the depth of God’s covenant love. Even in judgment, God’s desire is restoration and He pursues His people with mercy and faithfulness.

    04 | Being with God | PRAYER PRACTICE | 2 Corinthians 3:18 | Jacquie Irwin

    In this recording, we explore the heart of prayer, not just as words spoken, but as time spent in relationship with God. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 3:18, we reflect on how prayer invites us to behold the glory of the Lord and experience a deep, ongoing transformation. Join us as we unpack what it means to be called God’s children, how spending time with Him changes us from the inside out and why even the messy, challenging moments in prayer are part of our journey toward spiritual growth. Through examples like Peter and Paul, we discover that transformation takes time, patience and faith. Whether you’re new to prayer or have been walking with God for years, this episode encourages you to find rest in His presence and embrace the freedom found in being with God.

    01 | Talking to God | PRAYER PRACTICE | Dave Carter | Matthew 6: 9-13

    01 | Talking to God | PRAYER PRACTICE | Matthew 6: 9-13 | As we begin 2026, we turn our focus to prayer—not as a last resort, but as the foundation of our life with God. Prayer is how we commune with the Father, through Jesus, by the Spirit, and how our inner lives are shaped before our public lives. Rooted in Scripture and guided by the Lord’s Prayer, this message calls us to grow in both private and corporate prayer, seeking not just answers from God, but deeper knowledge of God Himself.
