How often do we say "always" without really meaning it?

In this week's sermon, "Always," we reflect on Jesus' promise: "I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Human promises can fail, but Christ's love, forgiveness, and presence never do.

If you've ever felt alone, overlooked, or unsure of where God is in your life, this message is for you.

❤️ Watch the sermon.
❤️ Be encouraged.
❤️ Share it with someone who needs hope today.

Happy Pride! Around the world LGBT+ folk are still marginalised and criminalised. Pride is our response - WE are part of God's fabulous and beautiful creation. Allies, don't just come to the party afterwards, march with us, campaign with us, fight for our rights with us!

🔥 PENTECOST SUNDAY | “The Abiding Presence of the Holy Spirit” 🔥

What happened when the veil in the temple was torn from top to bottom?

In this powerful Pentecost message, Kelly McFarland explores how the death of Christ and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit changed everything forever. No longer hidden behind a veil, the presence of God now dwells within us — guiding, comforting, empowering, and transforming ordinary people into vessels of hope and courage.

✨ “God moved from behind the veil into the hearts of believers.”

This sermon connects Hebrews 10, Acts 2, and John 14 in a moving reflection on:
🔥 The meaning of Pentecost
🔥 The tearing of the temple veil
🔥 The shift from law to grace
🔥 The abiding presence of the Holy Spirit
🔥 Finding peace, boldness, and power for today’s world

If you’ve ever wondered what Pentecost truly means — or longed to feel God closer than your next breath — this message is for you.

🎥 Watch, share, and celebrate the transforming power of the Holy Spirit with us.
