The Gate of Heaven (Genesis 28:10-22)

God does not come to us by grace, for us to set the conditions.

He is the Lord God, and we are sinners who get to repent, to respond to the grace of God, and turn to him with our sin…and not our conditions.

God is Big Enough for Your Mess (Genesis 26)

“Do you believe that God is with you, in whatever mess you’re in? Do you believe that God has been with you the whole time? Then, drink from that well, and be refreshed in this life where we never feel quite at home, and yet - know, believe, that we are never alone.”

The Hope of Humanity (Mark 16:1-8)

For all who weep, grieve and visit cemeteries of loved ones, in the same way humans have done since that first funeral of Abel, we have hope we can see – even if through bleary-eyed tears.

For one day in human history, the Risen Jesus will come again, and he will empty the cemeteries.

The Passover of the Lord’s Supper (Mark 14:17-52)

Here is Jesus, whose blood of the covenant is poured out, for he though undeserving carried our curses.

Here is Jesus, whose blood shed for our sins, means that He is the covenant maker, and that He is the one who dies in the place of us covenant breakers.

The King Comes to Clean House (Mark 11:1-25)

Reforming, we need to see something amazing today. Answered prayer.

For such a long time we have been praying, asking the Lord to save people, we prayed. And today we saw Ash, saved by grace, professing faith in the Lord Jesus.

Reforming, let’s keep praying like that! Let’s ask the Lord to do it again.

How to Have a Changed Heart (Mark 10:1-31)

Jesus does more than go through the eye of a needle, he does the impossible by going through death on a cross, risen with an inheritance money can’t buy.

The rich man went away sad, because he went away from Jesus. Whereas all the sinners who come to Jesus, get their life back. In Christ is where God makes the impossible, possible, for you.

Grace and Gratitude (Psalm 116)

On the 3rd of February, 2013, 12 years ago, a church service started at 5pm in a funeral chapel with these words… “Welcome to Reforming Church, a new Presbyterian church in Bendigo.”

Since that day, many people have joined in to say “we are Reforming”.

The Weary World Rejoices (Matthew 1)

Our world is weary…

Marriages under tension, broken relationships, adultery, cheating brothers, crimes against women, refugees, murder, idol worship, wicked leaders…and that’s just in the family tree of Jesus.

In Matthew 1 we see a thrill of hope that our world has waited ages for.
