Sermons

In this sermon, Mike Phillips continues our Going Deeper with God series by exploring the meaning and significance of Communion, also known as the Lord’s Supper.

Tracing the connection between the Passover, the Last Supper, and the church today, Mike shows how this simple meal of bread and wine points us to the heart of the gospel: Jesus’ sacrificial death for our salvation. As we share Communion, we remember Christ’s death, celebrate His presence with us, and look forward to the day when He returns in glory.

This message invites us to ask:

What is really happening when we gather at the Lord’s Table?

You’ll be encouraged to:

• Remember Christ’s sacrifice and the forgiveness He has won for us

• Look forward with hope to God’s coming kingdom

• Deepen your relationship with Christ through faith

• Celebrate the unity we share as God’s family Communion is more than a ritual. It is a gift from God that helps us remember, belong, hope, and go deeper with Him.

“…For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried.

On the third day he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father.

He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end…”

In our third sermon on the Nicene Creed, Lachlan helps us to consider the breadth of what it means to believe these words in the creed. These words show how Jesus is in our past, our future and active in the present day.

To believe these words will have ramifications for us today and should shape how we live in the here and now. Lachlan draws from 1 Corinthians 15:1-11 to help us see the continued relevance and impact of real faith then and now.
