    Do You See This Woman? | Learning to See Differently | Luke 7:36–50

    A dinner party. An unexpected guest. An uncomfortable moment. And a question from Jesus that changes how we see everyone at the table. “Do you see this woman?” It’s a familiar story, but perhaps there’s more happening here than we first realise. As you watch, consider two questions: What is this story really about? Who is the main character? There’s no right answer to discover. Just notice whether your perspective changes along the way. Perhaps that’s part of what it means to follow Jesus: learning to see beyond what we think we already know. Do You See This Woman? Luke 7:36–50 Preached 8 November 2026 Hinterland Chapel | Eureka, NSW, Australia

    5. Follow me...again

    Come, Follow Me… Again | When We Fail, Jesus Remains Faithful What happens when we discover we're not quite the people we thought we were? In the final message of our Come, Follow Me series, we return to the shores of Galilee, where the risen Jesus meets Peter after his devastating failure. A story of forgiveness, restoration, renewed calling, and the extraordinary faithfulness of Jesus—even when our own faithfulness fails. Scripture: John 21:1–19Speaker: Dean JohnstonHinterland Chapel | 25 October 2026

    4. Take up your cross

    Take Up Your Cross | Come, Follow Me – Week 4 “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves, take up their cross and follow me.” — Mark 8:34 These are some of Jesus’ most confronting words. What does it mean to deny yourself? What kind of life has to die? And why does Jesus place the cross at the centre of discipleship? In Week 4 of Come, Follow Me, we explore the paradox of losing our lives in order to find them, and the radically different way of life revealed in the crucified Christ.

    3. Who do you say I am?

    Come, Follow Me | Week 3: Who Do You Say I Am?Mark 8:22–33 | 11 October 2026 Peter correctly identifies Jesus as the Messiah, but moments later tries to correct him! In this message, we explore what happens when following Jesus challenges our deepest assumptions. Does the Jesus we confess have permission to contradict us? Because any spirituality that never contradicts us cannot transform us. Discover why correction isn't rejection, but part of the journey towards freedom and becoming more like Jesus.

    2. With Him

    Come, Follow Me – Week 2: With Him How does Simon become Peter? In Mark 3, Jesus calls the disciples “that they might be with him.” In this message, we explore discipleship as learning the way of Jesus by walking with him, watching him, and allowing his life to shape our instincts. Because following Jesus is more than knowing the right answers. It is learning to remain in him until his way begins to become our way. Mark 3:13–15 | John 15:4

    1. Leaving their nets

    What does it mean to follow Jesus when you don’t know where the road will lead? In the opening message of our Come, Follow Me series, we journey to the shoreline of Galilee where Jesus calls a handful of ordinary fishermen to leave the familiar and follow him. They don’t yet understand who Jesus is, where he is taking them, or who they themselves will become. But Jesus makes them a promise: “Follow me, and I will make you become.” A message about uncertainty, grace, transformation, and taking the first step.
