Leading together
In this new season at Redeemer, we’re revisiting the issue of leadership and why it is foundational to church life.

Leading well
In this new season of church life here at Redeemer, we’re revisiting the issue of leadership, and why it is such a foundation issue in church life.
In this message, we explore why leadership matters, why it can be sensitive, and how Scripture shapes a vision of leadership rooted in service, character, and humility. Drawing from the life of Jesus and the New Testament, we reflect on what it means to lead as stewards, not owners, so that the whole church can flourish.

Gospel freedom 2 - Replacing Lies with Truth
In the second of our talks on freedom, we explore the significance of what we truly believe and think, and how we need to learn to replace lies with truth.
God with us
In this sermon, Vahe unpacks Jacob's dream where he sees a ladder/staircase linking heaven and earth. He unpacks the extraordinary truth that God comes down the staircase to be with Jacob (Genesis 28:10-22, NRSV). Jesus references this dream in John 1:51 and makes the amazing claim that He is the One who comes down from heaven to be with us. Jesus is God with us. Vahe further describes practices he has found helpful to grow in our awareness of God's presence with us. Finally, he encourages us to hold on to the truth that God is committed to us, is with us, and is for us. As we do so, we are promised both freedom from fear and strength to persevere.
