I’m passionate about the church – building believers up in their faith, to be all God intended them to be; and I’m passionate about sharing the love and hope of Jesus with people who don’t know Him yet.

Have you made any New Year resolutions yet?

07/01/2018 By Pastor Julie

Have you made any New Year resolutions yet? At this time of year when social pressures usually feel less in terms of work and our children's schooling etc, we often set some pretty hairy, audacious goals for ourselves; many of which we will not achieve. However, it's good to set goals. Motivated people get things done. But when you set your goals, make sure that they are achievable. Also, make … [Read more...] about Have you made any New Year resolutions yet?

Take time to rest

31/12/2017 By Pastor Julie

Happy New Year's Eve people. Are you ready for 2018? Most of the people I've been talking to are still trying to wind down and relax after a hectic end to 2017. Thankfully "rest" is important to God. After 6 days of creating He "rested" from His work on the 7th day (Gen 2:2); not because He needed rest but because we humans need rest in order to recharge, and God wanted to set the standard.

Follow the “Truth” always

30/11/2017 By Pastor Julie

It's a hot NZ topic! Will our govt pass a law allowing euthanasia / assisted dying? It certainly looks like that will be the case soon. Perhaps you, like me, have sat beside a loved one for weeks on end, watching them die painfully and wishing you could end their pain. In those moments, if euthanasia was an option, some of us may just take it. But what about the flip side? Last Sunday I sat with … [Read more...] about Follow the “Truth” always

Finding Shelter

16/11/2017 By Pastor Julie

Are you feeling the pressures of "the silly season" yet? It's only 5 weeks until Christmas! That thought can make your heart race for many reasons. In today's society, we worry about many things around the Christmas season. Will we have enough money for presents? Can we afford a holiday? How many guests can we host? Will the boss let me have leave, and will he/she expect impossible deadlines? What … [Read more...] about Finding Shelter
