In Mike's Message today he is continuing to share on 'Heart Health' as found in Proverbs 4:23, "Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it." And in this message focuses on envy & desire.
"You don't rid envy by trying harder- you heal by bringing it into the light and yielding to the spirit."
Mimetic Process-
1. Imitation (I want what they want)
2. Rivalry (competition)
3. Conflict (tearing each other down)
4. Scapegoating ( blame someone else)
5. False Peace (we feel better... until the cycle starts again)
Practices (the way of the spirit)-
1. Honest Prayer
2. Gratitude
3. Celebration
4. Sacrificial Love

In the lead up to Easter, we are reaching the end of our series looking through the Gospel of Luke. On Sunday, we had guest speaker James Hall share about Palm Sunday and what that has meant to him as an Anglican Priest. James wonderfully shares about the traditions he took part in and how the powerful imagery would allow him to feel the depth and the meaning of the journey to the cross and the Easter story.
The invitation this Easter is sit with story and reflect on:
What HAS Palm Sunday meant?
What DOES Palm Sunday mean?
What WILL Palm Sunday mean to you?

Are you being perceived as an arrogant person?
Tuesday Apr 01, 2025
Tuesday Apr 01, 2025
From Advent into Easter we are going through the Gospel of Luke. Today Mike is sharing about Luke's Good News on Humility from Luke 18:9. Jesus shares a parable about what it means to be justified, and Mike explains justification and how it has been misunderstood. Humility is the posture of deep communion with God. Reliant, grateful, and confident in Christ's love for us.

5 Ways to transform your prayer life
Tuesday Mar 11, 2025
Tuesday Mar 11, 2025
As we continue through the gospel of Luke, Mike Hardie is sharing Luke's Good News on PRAYER. In his message, he dissects The Lord's Prayer and 5 ways Jesus invites us into transformation. It's not a strict rule or formula but each verse brings profound ideas about how to pray.
1. "Father, hallowed be your name" invites intimacy and holy awe.
2. "Your kingdom come" refocuses our priorities with God's purposes.
3. "Give us each day our daily bread" reminds US to trust in God's provision.
4. "Forgive us our sins, for we ourselves are forgive" reminds us of God's restorative justice.
5. "Do not lead us into temptation" expresses dependence on God for deliverance.
