In this powerful Bible study, we dive deep into the urgent call of evangelism and soul-winning—sharing the life-changing Gospel of Jesus Christ with a lost world.

This message is all about answering the question: What in the world are you doing for Heaven’s sake? Inspired by Isaiah 6:8, where the prophet declares, “Here am I, send me,” we explore what it means to be God’s messengers, sharing the good news with others—just like one beggar telling another where to find bread.

Join us as we unpack why evangelism matters, how to share the Gospel effectively, and why God uses ordinary people like you and me (not angels!) to reach the unsaved. From Luke 19:10—“The Son of Man came to seek and save the lost”—to John 4:35—“The fields are white already to harvest”—we’ll see the urgency of this mission. Time is short, eternity is long, and souls are at stake!

Here’s what you’ll discover in this video:
The Definition of Evangelism: Sharing the Gospel—the good news of salvation through Jesus Christ.

God’s Plan: A humorous yet profound story reminds us there’s no backup plan—it’s up to us to tell others!

Key Verses for Witnessing: Memorise powerful scriptures like Romans 3:23 (“All have sinned”), Ephesians 2:8-9 (“By grace are ye saved through faith”), and John 3:16 (“God so loved the world”).

Practical Tips: Learn how to witness person-to-person, use methods like the Romans Road, and avoid pitfalls (e.g., arguing or adding to the Gospel).

The Urgency: With a world growing indifferent or hostile, the harvest is ripe now—don’t wait for perfect conditions!

Challenges & Objections: From “I’m too sinful” to “All religions are the same,” we’ll tackle common pushbacks with scriptural answers.

Find out how to give your Personal Testimony: Share your story—your past, how you were saved, and what Jesus means to you now.

The Holy Spirit’s Role: Trust Him to guide and convict as you throw out the lifeline to the lost.

We’ll also cover practical methods, like door-to-door evangelism (join us Saturdays!), using tracts, and pairing up with a buddy. Whether you’re bold or shy, young or old, God can use you to win souls.

Proverbs 11:30 says, “He that winneth souls is wise”—it’s an honour and a mandate for every believer, not just preachers!

Highlights:
Why the Gospel is a free gift (not earned by works or “Lordship Salvation”).

How to present the Gospel simply: Admit you’re a sinner, Believe on Jesus, Call on Him to save you.

Encouraging new believers with assurance (1 John 5:11-13: “You may know you have eternal life”).

Watych a live demo of a door-knocking approach using a marked New Testament!

Why Watch?
This isn’t just a sermon—it’s a call to action. The harvest is plentiful, but the labourers are few (Matthew 9:37). Souls are precious, eternity hangs in the balance, and you are God’s ambassador (2 Corinthians 5:20). Don’t be ashamed (Romans 1:16)—be equipped! Whether you’re witnessing to classmates, coworkers, or strangers, this study will inspire and empower you to share the Gospel with love, sincerity, and boldness.

Bonus:
Stick around for a discussion on avoiding false doctrines (like adding “repent of all your sins” to salvation—see Acts 16:31: “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved”).

What if grace wasn’t just something you received but the very heartbeat of how you live? In this powerful sermon from March 9, 2025, we dive into the life-changing call to join the "G Team"—a community of believers who choose grace as their default attitude. Curious what the "G" stands for? Spoiler: it’s Grace—God’s unmerited favor that saves us, shapes us, and spills over into how we treat others.

Ever wonder how to love your enemies, forgive the unforgivable, or show kindness when the world defaults to judgment? This message unpacks it all—grace as a way of life, not just a theological concept. We’re talking Grace in Action: from the prodigal son welcomed home to the shackled prisoner set free, from the drowning man rescued to the debtor’s slate wiped clean. Grace is God’s nature, Christ’s character, and the culture of His kingdom—so why not make it ours too?

Drawing from Ephesians 4:32—"Be kind, tenderhearted, forgiving one another as God in Christ forgave you"—we explore how forgiveness (from the Greek "charis," meaning grace) is more than letting go of grudges; it’s giving graciously. It’s vertical (grace received from God) and horizontal (grace extended to others). But here’s the kicker: it’s not natural. Our default is criticism, self-interest, harshness—sound familiar? Yet, as God’s people, we’re called to a reset. Salvation shifts our settings; grace becomes our uniform.

Through vivid stories—like the Good Samaritan’s gut-level compassion or Jesus washing Judas’ feet—we see grace isn’t passive. It’s countercultural. It’s loving enemies, restoring the fallen with gentleness (think setting a broken bone), and speaking words seasoned with grace (Colossians 4:6). Paul says it’s God’s power at work (2 Corinthians 12:9), sufficient in our weakness, training us to live righteously (Titus 2:11-12).

So, how do we get there? This sermon gets practical:

Know Grace: Salvation’s gift—unearned, undeserved. Have you trusted Christ alone?

Show Grace: In conflict (let it go), relationships (forgive betrayal), and even the church (welcome, don’t judge).

Grow Grace: Pray for it, practice it, surround yourself with gracious people—because grace is a testimony that shines, not shouts.

Real-life challenges included: What’s your default when someone cuts you off in traffic or betrays your trust? Imagine swapping anger for kindness, grudges for forgiveness—reflecting Christ to a graceless world. Preacher admits: “I get grumpy too—ask my wife!” But grace isn’t theory; it’s shoe-leather reality. Tested this week? Yep, us too.

From the cross to the prodigal’s homecoming, God’s grace never runs out. Think of Steven forgiving his killers, Joseph embracing his brothers, or Christ healing His captor’s ear—grace extended, not withheld. Can we be that church? A "G Team" marked by mercy, not legalism; humility, not pride; compassion, not cliques?

Take the Challenge: This week, reset your default. Pause, pray, and choose grace—whether it’s a rude cashier, a theological spat, or a struggling stranger. Let’s be a grace-filled church, overflowing with God’s love, drawing others to the Saviour. “Freely you’ve received, freely give” (Matthew 10:8).

Join Lay Preacher Peter Richardson in this stirring sermon, "The Lord's Table," delivered on March 14, 2025, as he unpacks the profound love of Jesus Christ and the sacred significance of Communion. Drawing from John 15:13—“Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends”—Peter reveals a truth that pierces the heart: Jesus didn’t just die for friends, but for enemies. Romans 5:6-10 echoes this: “While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Once alienated by wicked works (Colossians 1:21), we’re now reconciled through His cross and resurrection—transformed from God’s enemies to His friends by grace alone.

Peter boldly proclaims the only path to salvation: faith in the crucified, risen Christ. “It’s not church membership, baptism, or good works—it’s the blood of Jesus Christ, amen!” he declares. Trusting Him as Savior and Lord, confessing sin, and surrendering pride brings pardon, redemption, and peace. This message sets the stage for a reverent look at the Lord’s Supper, guided by 1 Corinthians 11:23-29. On the night He was betrayed, Jesus took bread, gave thanks, broke it, and said, “This is my body, broken for you.” The cup, the New Testament in His blood, calls us to remember His death until He returns.

As we partake, Peter urges us to look back—envisioning Christ’s broken body and shed blood on Calvary—and forward to His glorious return. “Think of the whip tearing His back, the thorns piercing His brow, the nails in His hands and feet,” he says, painting a vivid picture of sacrifice. Yet, he clarifies a common misunderstanding: “None of us are worthy in ourselves to partake—only in Christ are we made worthy by His grace.” Paul’s warning about eating “unworthily” isn’t about our sinfulness, but our attitude. Approach this table humbly, reverently, discerning the Lord’s body, or risk judgment.

Peter passionately refutes false gospels: “If a preacher says baptism, the Ten Commandments, or good works save you, he’s lying! Salvation is by faith alone, through Christ alone!” Jesus, the sinless Son of God, bore our “ghastly” sins—every blasphemous word, impure thought, and shameful act—on the cross. His resurrection proves His deity; His blood cleanses completely. “You can’t earn, buy, or bluff your way to heaven,” Peter warns. “Gold paves heaven’s streets—what have you to offer God?” If you’re clinging to tradition or works, he pleads, “Turn to Christ alone—trust Him now!”

This sermon is for believers preparing for Communion and seekers yearning for truth. Peter’s call is urgent: If you’ve never trusted Jesus, come in humility. “Tell God you’re a sinner, believe Jesus died for you, and receive Him—His blood will wash you clean!” As we take the bread and cup, we’re invited to a table we don’t deserve, yet God graciously offers through His Son. Looking ahead, we anticipate the heavenly banquet with our Savior. Will you join us at the Lord’s Table today?

Perfect for reflection or sharing, this message stirs awe at Christ’s love and clarity on salvation. Subscribe for more from Peter Richardson as he preaches the unadulterated Gospel. “Salvation is yours the moment you trust Jesus—don’t wait!”

Join Preacher Michael Orlino in this powerful and heartfelt sermon as we dive deep into the Book of Colossians, focusing on the rich truths of Colossians 1:3-8.

Recorded on March 14, 2025, this study unveils the beauty of Paul’s abundant thanksgiving—a "copious thanksgiving"—offered to our Triune God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In this message, we explore three transformative themes that stir the soul and challenge the heart: gratitude to God, gratitude for the Gospel, and gratitude to the Gospel bearer.

Kicking off with verses 1-2, Brother Michael highlights Paul’s Christian greeting, marked by grace and peace—a pattern woven through all of Paul’s epistles. Then, in verses 3-8, we unpack the second major section of this passage: a thanksgiving that overflows with praise. Paul, despite the Colossians’ challenges, models a spirit of gratitude that refuses to complain. “We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you” (v. 3). This Trinitarian thanksgiving—to the Father (v. 3), the Lord Jesus Christ (v. 3), and the Spirit (v. 8)—reminds us that our worship is directed to the one true God of the Bible, the Blessed Trinity we adore.

Why is Paul so grateful? Verses 4-5 reveal a triad of Christian virtues: faith in Christ Jesus, love for all the saints, and hope laid up in heaven. Pastor Michael passionately declares, “Salvation is found in Christ and Christ alone—by faith in Him!” This faith isn’t vague; it has an object—Jesus. The Colossians’ love for one another and their certain hope in heaven fuel Paul’s praise. “Our hope isn’t in this world,” Brother Michael urges, “but in the glory secured for us above!”

Next, we turn to gratitude for the Gospel (vv. 5-6). Paul rejoices that the Colossians heard “the word of the truth of the Gospel,” a message that’s heard, biblical, and true. “The Gospel isn’t just good news—it’s the best news!” Brother Michael proclaims. He warns against false gospels—prosperity, works-based, universalist, moralistic, and social activist distortions—insisting that the true Gospel, rooted in Scripture, saves. From Romans 1:16 (“I am not ashamed of the Gospel…”) to 1 Thessalonians 2:13, we see its power to redeem. This Gospel spreads externally, turning the world upside down (Acts 17:6), and grows internally, bearing fruit in believers’ lives (v. 6). “Read your Bible, pray every day, and you’ll grow, grow, grow!” he exhorts, quoting the timeless hymn.

Finally, gratitude shines on Epaphras, the Gospel bearer (v. 7). Described as a teacher, dear co-laborer, faithful servant, and minister of Christ, Epaphras brought the Gospel to Colossae. Brother Michael honours such labourers, from Martin Luther’s steadfastness to modern missionaries, urging us to thank those who’ve shared Christ with us. Verse 8 sweetens the message: Epaphras commends the Colossians’ “love in the Spirit,” a testimony of their Spirit-wrought affection.

This sermon isn’t just a study—it’s a call. Are you grateful to the Triune God? Do you treasure the Gospel that saves? Are you proclaiming it so the world hears? With vivid illustrations—from George Whitefield’s “I have no other message” to Eric Liddell’s “Christ for the world”—Brother Michael challenges us to send the light of the Gospel far and wide. “Expect great things from God; attempt great things for God,” he echoes William Carey, igniting a passion for mission.

Perfect for believers seeking encouragement or skeptics exploring faith, this message stirs gratitude and action. Watch now and reflect: When was the last time you thanked the Lord? Is the Gospel growing in you? Subscribe for more studies in Colossians as we journey through this life-changing book.

Let’s pray with Brother Michael: “Lord, open our hearts to follow You, proclaim Your Gospel, and fulfill Your commission. Amen.”

In this powerful speech, Christopher Brohier shares his journey from a faith-challenged youth to becoming the lead Senate candidate for South Australia for the Family First Party. With his wife Amanda by his side and running mate Deepa Matthew, Brohier recounts his personal testimony and explains why he believes Australia is at a crucial moral and political crossroads.

Personal Journey
Christopher Brohier begins by sharing his migration story, arriving in Australia from Sri Lanka in 1971 at age 13. Despite his parents' faith, he admits he was more interested in sports and dating during his teenage years than church attendance. His transformation began during his travels after his first year of law school, when discussions about God with an Australian volunteer worker in Bangladesh challenged his beliefs. Reading C.S. Lewis's "Screwtape Letters" prompted Shelton to confront his own sin when he recalled intentionally hurting his sister. This realisation led to a spiritual awakening that culminated in a profound experience at an Anglican evensong service in Kolkata, where he gained a sense of peace he'd never known before.

Family and Early Advocacy
After completing his law degree, Brohier met his wife Amanda through a Christian discipleship group called The Navigators. They have four adult children: Jonathan, Jennifer, Faith, and Michael. His involvement in political advocacy began in 2011 when he wrote a paper opposing euthanasia legislation for Family Voice. In 2012, he authored a constitutional argument against same-sex marriage, eventually appearing before House and Senate committees. In 2017, Brohier and his wife led the "No" campaign against same-sex marriage in South Australia—a campaign they ultimately lost, but which convinced him of the need for stronger Christian voices in politics.

Legal Battles and Religious Freedom
Brohier highlights several legal cases demonstrating what he views as the degradation of law in Australia:

Kathy Club and Graham Preston: Challenged laws prohibiting protests or prayer within 150 meters of abortion clinics, ultimately losing in the High Court.
Jillian Spencer: A child psychiatrist suspended for opposing gender-affirming care at Queensland Health Clinic, arguing that gender dysphoria in children can be linked to trauma.
Lyle Shelton: Sued for vilification after tweeting that drag queens are not appropriate role models for children in library story times (he won the case, though an appeal is pending).

These cases, Brohier argues, exemplify how stating "basic truths" like "only women can breastfeed" or "a girl will always be a girl" can now result in legal challenges or job termination.

Key Campaign Issues

The Family First Party's platform includes:

Gender Issues: Fighting against what Brohier calls "the medicalization of children" through gender-affirming care and opposing school curricula that he believes encourage children to question their gender.
Pro-Life Advocacy: Standing against abortion access.
Religious Education: Protecting faith-based education from legislative changes proposed by the Australian Law Reform Commission, which Brohier claims would "end Christian education in Australia" by removing existing protections.
Energy Policy: Opposing renewable energy transitions, which he argues have increased power costs rather than decreasing them. He suggests that fossil fuels and nuclear energy are better alternatives, claiming that Earth is "10% greener" over the last decade.

Call to Action
Brohier concludes by referencing Australia's constitutional preamble, which acknowledges "Almighty God," and argues that faith in God and traditional family structures (defined as "a man and a woman joined together in marriage for the bringing up of children") are the foundation of a flourishing society. He describes Australia as being "at the bottom of the abyss" and calls for supporters to help with letterboxing campaign materials and staffing polling booths.

The speech ends with a powerful image of a large cross erected by Aboriginal people at Memory Mountain west of Alice Springs, which Brohier interprets as a symbol of Christian calling to serve the poor and needy. He urges his audience to fight not with physical weapons but "with the weapons of prayer, with the weapons of truth being argued, with the weapons of sacrifice."

This compelling address combines personal testimony, legal expertise, and passionate advocacy for traditional values, offering voters a clear alternative in the upcoming Senate election for Southy Australia through the Family First Party's platform.

Matthew 27: The King and His Kingdom

In this sermon, we explore Matthew 27, examining Jesus as the King of the Kingdom of Heaven.

Christopher Brohier explains how the Gospel of Matthew consistently presents Jesus as King, culminating in the crucial question from Pilate: "Are you the King of the Jews?"

The message breaks down into three key sections:

Jesus's kingship declared (v.11)
Jesus's kingship rejected (v.15-50)
Jesus's kingship vindicated (v.51-66)

This powerful teaching reveals how the Kingdom of Heaven operates differently than worldly kingdoms. While earthly kings gain power by taking lives, Jesus established His kingdom by giving His life for His people. Through Christ's sacrifice, we now have direct access to God's presence—the veil has been torn, allowing us to "draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith."

Join us as we discover the profound truth that the moment of salvation came at 3 PM on Good Friday, forever changing our relationship with God and offering us the promise of His coming Kingdom.
