Jesus says that not everyone who calls him Lord will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. What does that mean for us and how can we make sure we can lay hold of the promises of the Kingdom of Heaven if calling Jesus Lord isn't enough? Text: Matt 7:21-23 & Luke 6:46-49

CityChurch Talks

Doing the Will of the Father - Niki Hardy

Worship lies at the very heart of all Jesus is doing in our church right now. In this talk, as we start a series from the book of Ezekiel, we shall therefore explore some key questions...what does lie at the heart of worship? and what does that mean for us as we seek to experience more of Jesus? Text: Ezekiel 1:1-9, 15-18, 22-28 & 3:4-15

The Heart of Worship - Al Hardy

Exciting things are happening at CityChurch! On this, our Church birthday, Al shares a vision for the months ahead that encompasses both the exciting things that the Lord is doing and the implications that has for us as we step into it!

The Upgrade- Vision for 2020 - Al Hardy

The goal and norm for every believer, is to be consumed with the Spirit and that the Kingdom of God becomes our ultimate reality. As a church this is where we are headed so get ready! In this talk Josh shares with us about how the Spirit being our daily communion. Matthew 13:44-45, Romans 8:11 & Acts 12

The Spirit of God, Leads to the Kingdom of God - Josh Meadows

Last week we explored God's call for us to make Him a priority in our lives this year. In this talk, we see this is not just about activities FOR Jesus but about relationship WITH Jesus. Looking at Psalm 23, we see the powerful shift that happens when we move from being 'wanderers' to becoming a 'dwellers'. Text: Psalm 23

From Wanderer to Dweller by Al Hardy

As we start a new year, new decade and exciting new season in the life of our chuuch Al casts a powerful vision for the months ahead. In particular, how 'the Kingdom of heaven has come near' to us (Matt 4:17) and what we are now being called to do to lay hold of it and see it become ever more real in our midst.

Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven has come near... Al Hardy

John's gospel starts by saying that 'In Him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind' (John 1:4). As we celebrate the birth of Jesus we examine the life that He brings and more importantly, how we can lay hold of it for ourselves this Christmas. Text: Isaiah 9:2-7 and John 1:1-13

Unexpected Life in Jesus - Al Hardy

On this Sunday we had our annual carol service that told the story of Luke 1:26-38 and Matt 1:18-21 in music, reflection on these scriptures and powerful video clips from the BBC show called 'The Nativity'. This all leads up to the talk you will hear her. We hope the story of Mary & Joseph mean something different this Christmas Season! Christmas reminds us that God often does unexpected things. But how should we respond when He does? and what does it really mean to trust in God in good times as well as hard? In this talk, we reflect on what it means to respond and trust in the God of the unexpected this Christmas.

Responding to the Unexpected! - Al Hardy

*Disclaimer: We unfortunately had some technical issues during this recording and there is a bit in there that was lost and with an abrupt ending but we didn't want to not share those parts of the talk that were very powerful. We apologize in advance.* This Sunday we had our amazing All Age Christmas service where we take the Christmas story and make a play out of it, usually including many Disney characters. This Christmas, how should we respond to the promise of a King? In this talk, we see how Jesus was an unexpected King when He was born and is still the unexpected King today. We are invited to see the kind of King He really is and respond to Him accordingly!

The Unexpected King of Christmas - Al Hardy

Life so often steals our joy. Frequently, Christmas does the same. In this talk, we start our Christmas series looking at the biblical promise that true joy is found through the 'Great Rejoicing Reversal'. What is it? How do we engage in it? and what will the result be? Text: Zephaniah 3:14-17

The Great Rejoicing Reversal - Al Hardy

Currency always enables us to do things. In the world, that currency is money BUT in the Kingdom that currency is Faith. In this talk, we look at what that means, how we are called to use that currency and how God will move in power as a result. Text: Luke 8:22-25 & 40-56

Faith - The Currency of the Kingdom - Al Hardy

We have authority in the Kingdom of Heaven! The "key" that unlocks this authority is our position in Christ. The talk this week will explain how the kingdom of God gives us full authority individually and corporately to "bind and loose" the world around us. Matthew 16:13-19

Who Do You Say Christ Is? - Tamara Burdon

As we continue to explore the Kingdom of God we look at the reality and power of the gift of prophecy for today. In this talk we explain what the gift is, why we should be really interested in it and how to step into it in such a way that we too, like Ezekiel, will see dry bones come to life! Text: Ezekiel 37:1-14

How Dry Bones Come Alive! - Al Hardy

In this talk, we challenge you to explore the true nature of worship and invite you, along with the rest of the church, to 'ascend' through worship into the very presence of Jesus himself. Text: Psalm 121:1-2, Psalm 126:1-3 and Psalm 131:1-3

Worship: The Key to Finding the Kingdom - Al Hardy

Jesus tells us the Kingdom of God is like treasure hidden in a field. But what is that treasure? and why is it so valuable? In this talk, we answer both questions & start our own journey to find that treasure for ourselves. Text: Matthew 13:44
