Walking with God – Part B

Friday, May 16th, 2008
This is Part B of a now 5 part sermon series on Walking with God. In this sermon Sue says that the second reason she has needed faith in order to journey more closely with God is to believe she can trust God; unless we trust God we will not obey Him, and unless we obey Him, we will not experience Him.

Using the parable of the talents Sue illustrates that it is as we are faithful in the little things that we will experience God’s strength/His power which is what will enable us to trust and obey Him with bigger things.

The Church . . . As it is in heaven – Part B

Thursday, November 22nd, 2007

At the end of day it’s all about love!

Hello and praise God for Chatswood Church’s first online video sermon! God is blessing the world with insight and knowledge around technology and as a result you can now watch Sue preach right in your own home.

This first sermon explores why we need a “Sabbath” or a day of rest each week. It considers our increasing need for a day of physical and emotional rest each week but proposes that the true purpose of the Sabbath is to remind us that we are created beings and that we have a living, loving God. When we are reminded that we have a living, loving God we no longer need to try and be all-powerful, all-knowing, everywhere/we can rest in a God who is all these things and we can rest in Him not only on the Sabbath but anywhere, anytime!
