Exodus – A Way Out

by

Exodus - A Way Out

Exodus is the story of God making a ‘way out’ for a people who were trapped and miserable. The same compassionate God is at work today offering rescue and freedom, even where we‚ve really messed things up.

Our Bible Talks will look into the first part of the book of Exodus (chapters 1 to 14) to see how God provided a way out and how this helps us understand who God is.  The talks will include:

  • A way out
  • Turning your back on Egypt
  • God comes down
  • Courageous faith
  • I will
  • The plagues
  • The passover
  • Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord

Sermons will be available below shortly after each talk.

Right with God

by

Romans - Right with God

How can I be right with God? Romans 1-5 contains perhaps the most profound and grand answer given to that question, in the whole of the Bible.

We will be studying the first part of the book of Romans in our next series at Kallangur Bible Talks commencing on April 29th, considering:

  • Romans 1:1-15 – The good news of God
  • Romans 1:16-32 – Non-religious people need the good news of Jesus
  • Romans 2:1-24 – Religious people need the good news of Jesus
  • Romans 3:19-26 – Right with God
  • Romans 4:1-8 – Abraham was not right with God because of his works
  • Romans 4:9-12 – Abraham was not right with God because of rituals
  • Romans 4:6-25 – Abraham believed in God who raises from the dead
  • Romans 5:1-11 – Blessings that come from being right with God
  • Romans 5:12-19 – One or the other

Sermons will be available shortly after each Bible Talk

If you could ask God one question, what would it be?

If you could ask God one question, what would it be?

In January and February we asked friends ‘if you could ask God one question, what would it be?’ So now, across the month of March we will be looking at several of these big questions, including:

11th March – “How can a God of love allow suffering?”
Even good people suffer. How can a God allow that?

18th March – “Why Christianity, when there are many religions?”
Isn’t it arrogant to claim Christianity is the ‘right’ religion? Why not choose one of the others?

25th March – “Why isn’t Christianity more inclusive?”
Doesn’t moral and religious truth just limit freedom and lead to hatred?

ALSO, on Easter Sunday (1st April) we’ll consider “Does it matter whether or not Jesus rose from the dead?”
