Is God unfair to choose some? - Romans 9:1-33 Sermon
If nothing can separate us from God's love, then what about those who do not Christian? And does that mean God is unfair to choose some and not others? In this passage Paul laments over his own people, the Jews, but shows that God is acting according to his word and promises.

Nothing can separate from God's love - Romans 8:31-39 Sermon
In our suffering we might think "is this a punishment?" or "am I on the wrong path?" In this passage we discover that nothing - absolutely nothing - can separate us from God's love. No circumstance, hardship, suffering, persecution - anything.

Hope in suffering - Romans 8:18-30 Sermon
Suffering is the hardest thing to cope with in life - especially long-term or chronic suffering. The only thing that keeps us going is hope - hope that one day things will change. In this passage, Paul shows us how God gives us hope through Jesus Christ, and how that changes the way that we suffer.

New life in the Spirit - Romans 8:1-17 Sermon
Last week we thought about how and why we struggle with sin. This week we are looking at the solution to those problems: the Holy Spirit. Christians now have an obligation - not to the flesh, to our sinful nature, but to the Spirit.

Why we struggle with sin - Romans 7:7-25 Sermon
Do you find yourself struggling with sin in your life? Why is it that we seem to struggle with sin so much? In this passage, Paul illustrates the teaching of the previous section of Romans with some autobiographical information. Paul also found sin to be a struggle - but there is a reason, and a solution.

Transformation through Christ - Romans 6:15-7:6 Sermon
In this passage, Paul talks about how great the change is for those who are in Christ. We are no longer slaves to sin but slaves of righteousness; we died with Christ and are raised to serve him in a new way.

Does grace mean we can keep sinning? - Romans 6:1-14 Sermon
In this passage, Paul starts to turn his attention to the Christian life. If we are forgiven by grace through faith, does that mean we can sin as much as we like? And if not, how do we live the Christian life?

Sharing the faith of Abraham – Romans 4:1-25 Sermon
Over the last few weeks we’ve come across the two different ways – “faith” vs “works”, as Paul puts it. But what does it mean to live by faith? In this passage, Paul turns to the example of Abraham to see how he lived by faith, and how he is the example for us to follow. What does that mean?

The gospel excludes boasting - Romans 3:21-31 Sermon
Boasting is one of the most unattractive characteristics someone can have. In this passage, Paul says that boasting is "excluded". But how does that work? How does the gospel exclude boasting, and what does that mean for how we live?

What's the point of 'being religious'? - Romans 3:1-20 Sermon
Last week we saw that what God really cares about is the heart, rather than outward things - as the Jews of Paul's day were saying. In this sermon, Paul turns to answer an objection: what, then, is the value of being religious at all? What was the point of being Jewish? If all that matters is the heart, what's the point of any of our religious observance?

Are you a hypocritical Christian? - Romans 2:17-29 Sermon
Unfortunately, Christians can be just as judgemental as anybody. In fact, Christians can even be worse than others! In this sermon we look at what we can learn from Paul's critique of the Jews of his day. They thought they were enlightened and perfectly moral because they had the law - but what was really the case?

The problem with judgemental moralism - Romans 2:1-16 Sermon
In this passage, Paul takes aim at judgemental moralists. Christians sometimes have a reputation for being judgemental and moralistic, although these days you can find that kind of attitude everywhere. What is the problem with being judgemental, and how can Christians be different?

The disintegration of godless society - Romans 1:18-32 Sermon
What is the problem with the world today? In this sermon, we look at Paul's hard-hitting explanation of the root problem from Romans 1. The fundamental problem is 'men have forgotten God' - they turn away from him. God then gives us over to our sinful desires, which leads to the decay and degradation of society.

In the first part of a new series on the book of Romans, we think about how the gospel is not simply advice but is the power of God. Paul is called as an apostle of that message, and demonstrates the message in his life.

Do you take Jesus seriously? In the final part of the sermon on the mount, we think about the perils of claiming to be a Christian without taking Jesus seriously. We look at Jesus' teaching about true and false disciples, as well as his famous parable of the wise and foolish builders.

Do not judge - Matthew 7:1-7 Sermon
People often take the phrase 'do not judge' to mean that we shouldn't ever criticise anyone else. But that's not what Jesus intended us to understand. Instead, this is about how we relate to others and deal with sin - especially within the church.
