I am pleased to announce that we will be advertising and inviting new people to join our Term 3 Starting Point course! It will begin August 4th at my place again. Please be praying and thinking through who you could possibly invite to this. I know it is a hard sell given that we aren’t even meeting in person yet, however, I want us to step out in faith and trust that God will draw people to us, and so you never know until you ask!
On Sunday we looked at the final three pieces of armour. You can listen to or watch the message here!
13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. 14 Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. 16 In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; 17 and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God,
Ephesians 6:13-17
We need to constantly be reminded that we are in the midst of a dangerous spiritual war, that we need our spiritual armour, and that if we put it on we can stand, and fight, and win!
1. Put on the Belt of Truth
2. Put on the Breastplate of Righteousness
3. Put on the Boots of Gospel Peace
4. Take up the Shield of Faith
5. Put on the Helmet of Salvation
6. Draw the Sword of the Spirit

A beautiful pastoral video from Pastor Dave to the church at Wahroonga. May we all hate racism, prejudice, and discrimination. I am grateful for how as a church we are united in Christ from many different tribes and nations. We part of the solution as we gather each week and sing with one voice! You may have noticed that the past number of weeks I have included in my prayers through the service, prayers of lament. A prayer of lament is a cry out to God to see sin and destruction, to express our mourning over it, and to plead with him to make a change. Perhaps you can add this to your prayers too.
