Gospel freedom
In this message, we explore the meaning of freedom and what it signifies when Jesus proclaims that he has come to bring freedom to the oppressed.
Recovery - the power of forgiveness
In this message we look again at Jesus’ desire to not only ‘release to captives’ but bring recovery and restoration to our lives. In particular we focus on how learning to forgive others is such a powerful way of experiencing healing in our own lives.
Jesus brings recovery to our lives
Luke 4 teaches that Jesus has come to bring recovery to our lives. In this sermon, we look at different facets of what that means, including how Jesus restores our identity, our ability to represent God on earth and finally how he has come to make us whole.
Release - helping people find their way home to God
As we continue our series on the church being good news in the city, we consider what it means to be a community that helps people come home to God.
Release for the captives - finding our way home
In Luke 4 Jesus announces that he has come to being good news to the world, and that part of that good news is ‘ release for the captives.’ In this message we explore what it means to come home to God, and how everyone of us, no matter who we are or what we’ve done, can do that.
How to be good news in the city
Luke 4 teach us that Jesus came to bring good news which means the church is meant to a blessing in the city. But how do we do that? What should we actually do? In this message we explore 5 practical ways that all believers can be good news where they live.
Joy in the city
Jesus announces his mission in Luke 4 as being flooded with good news. He has come to bring forgiveness, freedom, release and healing to any who will receive him. This week we begin a series talking about what the church is called to, and why we are here in the great city of Rotterdam.
Luke: a journey to the cross
The way Luke sets up his gospel is as a journey. Not just Jesus’ journey, but a journey for us to follow. As we follow Jesus on his way to the cross - as he walks, and talks and works miracles - our lives too are transformed. We grow in our understanding of who Jesus is, and our identity in Him. We learn to surrender, and we begin to see the kingdom of God at work.

Don´t be afraid, just believe
Through the story of Jairus and the healing of the woman suffering from bleeding, we explore the nature of faith and how we can nurture it in our own hearts.
The Lost Sheep
In Luke 15, Jesus shares the well-known parable of the Lost Sheep. Through this story, we discover a profound truth: humanity is both utterly lost without God, but also completely and unconditionally loved by Him.
Holy Spirit - My Soul Thirsts
In this final message of the series, we look at Psalm 42 and consider what it means for our souls to long for God. We explore how this longing connects to the New Testament call to “walk by the Spirit” and why it is vital for each of us to cultivate a life of dependence on the Holy Spirit.

Transformed: Becoming Like Jesus by the Spirit
We long to be more like Jesus — loving, patient, gentle — but real character change doesn’t come through sheer effort. In this message, we explore how true transformation happens not by striving or rule-keeping, but by the power of the Holy Spirit. As we walk with Him, we bear the fruit of a life shaped by Jesus

In this message, Adrian unpacks the powerful truth that God is truly speaking to each of us, and that we can each learn to recognise and respond to His voice.
Together, we explore how to follow the Apostle Paul’s encouragement to “eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy” — embracing this call in healthy, meaningful, and impactful ways.

There is More - being baptised, filled, and propelled by the Spirit
In this message we explore the issue of being Baptised in the Holy Spirit. We consider the different views held on this position, but also that whatever your view, the main emphasis of the New Testament is to go on asking for and receiving more of the Spirit.

The now and not yet of the Kingdom
In the first message of a new series about the Holy Spirit, we consider how we live in the ‘now’ age of the Spirit, and yes also the ‘not yet.’ How we are both encouraged to go on being filled with the Spirit, and expect for more, yet at the same time understanding that there will be a day when we experience God’s presence fully.
