Paul’s words in 2 Corinthians 3 invite us to marvel at the privilege and power of the new covenant ministry. The heart of this passage is a contrast between the old covenant, centred on the law written on stone, and the new covenant, where the Spirit writes on human hearts. Paul reminds the Corinthians that the true proof of gospel ministry is not found in external credentials or letters of recommendation, but in the transformed lives of people. The Corinthians themselves are living letters, ...

2 Corinthians 2:5-11 - Reaffirming Forgiving Love

Canterbury Gardens Community Church (CGCC) ·

2025/06/09

Shebu walked us through a challenging concept of Church discipline. Challenging us to see how forgiveness and restoration are at the heart of Christ-centred discipline. As we reflect on our own lives and relationships, we are invited to consider where we might need to reaffirm our love—to family, to church members, or even to ourselves. The power to forgive and restore does not come from our own strength, but from the Spirit who raised Christ from the dead and now lives in us. In this, we be...

Canterbury Gardens Community Church (CGCC) ·

2025/06/03

Paul’s words to the Corinthians invite us to wrestle with the nature of true commitment—God’s, Paul’s, and our own. He begins by affirming his clear conscience and unwavering devotion to the church, not as a boast in himself, but as a testimony to God’s grace at work. Paul’s relationship with the Corinthians is not transactional or superficial; it is rooted in the deep, enduring bond forged by Christ’s mission and the Spirit’s work. He longs for a day when, before Christ, both he and the Cori...

Canterbury Gardens Community Church (CGCC) ·

2025/05/30

When we think of comfort, our minds often drift to cozy images—warm food, soft beds, or the embrace of a loved one. Yet, God's comfort is far deeper and more profound than any earthly coziness. God, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort, is not distant or indifferent to our suffering. He is present in our afflictions, providing relief, strength, encouragement, and the resolve to endure. This comfort is not a tranquilliser that dulls our pain, but a divine fortification that enables...

Shebu sat down with Sam Allberry and Stephen McAlpine to discuss a truth of the Christian faith that shapes everything in life: the doctrine of being in Christ or Union with Christ. Sam is a pastor, apologist, author, and speaker. He has written several books, including "Is God Anti-Gay?" "What God Has to Say About Our Bodies?" "Why Does God Care Who I Sleep With?" and "7 Myths about Singleness and his latest book "One with my Lord." You can read more about Sam here: https://samallberry.com/ ...

2025/05/19

As we begin our journey through 2 Corinthians, we are invited to reflect deeply on three foundational truths: who we are, who we belong to, and what we have been given. Paul’s introduction to this letter is not just a formality; it is a profound reminder of the identity, calling, and resources that define the Christian life and the church community. Paul, once a persecutor of the church, is now an apostle by the will of God, not by human appointment or affirmation. His authority and mission a...

2025/05/12

In Ephesians 6:10-20, we are reminded that life as a follower of Jesus is not lived in peacetime, but amid a spiritual battle. The world we inhabit is marked by brokenness, temptation, and the schemes of the evil one, yet God has not left us defenceless. Instead, he graciously provides all we need to stand firm and live for him. Our strength is not in self-reliance or personal ability, but in the Lord and the power of his might. This is a daily invitation to surrender, to confess our dependen...

Marriage, Submission and God's design. A discussion.

Canterbury Gardens Community Church (CGCC) ·

2025/05/06

Recently, as part of our Colossians preaching series, John preached from Colossians 3, which focused on marriage, submission, and God's design. You can check out the sermon on our podcast channel or watch it via your YouTube channel https://youtu.be/OeCclT9y01Q. We also invited people to send us questions as part of that sermon. John, Desley, and Shebu sat down to discuss those questions and issues surrounding Marriage, Submission, and God's design. Extra resources: 1: https://fami...

Canterbury Gardens Community Church (CGCC) ·

2025/05/05

Cameron walked us through the last chapter of Colossians. He explains that it’s clear that the gospel is not just a set of beliefs, but a reality that transforms every aspect of our lives. The Colossians, like us, faced temptations to either focus too much on earthly things or to seek spiritual experiences apart from Christ. Yet, Paul reminds us that fullness of life and spiritual maturity are found only in Jesus. He is not just the centre of our salvation, but the centre of all things—the on...

2025/04/28

John walks us through God's instructions on Marriage from Colossians. Marriage as God designed it is not about oppression or power struggles but about freedom, joy, and mutual flourishing. In the Roman world, wives were treated as property and submission was demanded, not given. Paul’s teaching is radically different: wives are called to submit to their husbands willingly, as an act of love and trust, not as a forced duty. This submission is modelled after Christ’s willing submission to the F...

Mark unpacked for us the profound need for help that is intrinsic to our human experience, a need that is beautifully illustrated in the story of Jesus' entry into Jerusalem. This event, often celebrated as Palm Sunday, is a powerful reminder of the people's cry for salvation, encapsulated in the word "Hosanna," which means "save us." This cry for help is not just a historical event but a timeless expression of our deepest needs and desires. We all seek help in various forms, whether it's for...

2025/04/07

Mike continued our journey through Colossians, and we arrived at a pivotal point where Paul addresses our conduct, attitudes, and motivations as Christians. The essence of this passage is not about striving harder or merely avoiding sin to please God. Instead, it is about understanding our identity in Christ and allowing that understanding to transform our lives. Paul reminds us that we have died to our old selves and are now hidden with Christ in God. This new identity calls us to put to dea...

2025/03/31

Andy challenged us to consider that setting our minds on things above, rather than earthly matters, is a call to focus on the essence of our faith—Jesus Christ. The real issue isn't the rules themselves but our relationship with them. Rules can be beneficial, pointing us to Christ, but they can also be dangerous when they become the focus rather than the means to an end. The Apostle Paul, in his letter to the Colossians, warns against adding extra practices to the gospel, emphasizing that Jes...

Canterbury Gardens Community Church (CGCC) ·

2025/03/23

Paul walks us through Colossians 2:6-15, a passage that beautifully aligns with the theme of baptism. This scripture emphasizes the essence of being "in Christ," Paul reiterates in his letter to the Colossians. As believers, our identity is rooted in Christ, and this passage highlights three core attributes of this identity: walking in Him, being filled in Him, and being made alive in Him.
