Why Church is good for you

There you will hear God's Word explained, find strategies for living, discover your spiritual gifts, and form relationships that will sustain you in the hard times. Where else can you find all that? Yale University conducted a study confirming that people who go to church regularly are happier, healthier, and live longer than those who don’t. The survey found that church attendees had lower blood pressure, less stress, and greater immunity to disease, whereas non-churchgoers in the group had a shortened life span roughly equal to that of cigarette smokers.

One of the interviewers asked an eighty-year-old woman, who happened to be running on a treadmill at the time, what her secret was. She said,

‘When you walk with God you have purpose, so you live longer. And you have peace with God, so you live better.’

Think: if you could find all that in a pill, how much would you pay for it? And would anybody have to force you to take it? No? Okay, then make sure you’re in church on Sunday!

The John Drama

Nobody goes from carpenter to celebrity without a good story

Jesus, Christ, Immanuel, Messiah – he has many names, but who can deny he’s turned the whole world upside down. His contemporaries either loved or hated him – some hated him so much they killed him as a criminal. What do you think of Jesus? If you don’t know the story – or you want to hear it again in a fresh way, come along to a drama.

Where do we find ourselves?

Need Emergency Relief

Please Contact Redland Community Centre

Redland Community Centre @ 29 Loraine St, Capalaba QLD 4157 is open form 9am to 3pm Monday to Friday.

Emergency Relief (ER) is available form 10am to 2pm.

Emergency Relief is the provision of material or financial assistance to people in crisis. Some clients access ER to help them through a ‘one-off’ episode; while for others, ER becomes part of their solution to dealing with ongoing disadvantage. The aim of ER is to assist people experiencing a crisis in a way that maintains dignity and encourages self-reliance.

Do You Feel Lost...Wonder Why You're Here??

You are on a journey...ups and downs...how can God help you??

"I know the plans I have in mind for you, declares the Lord; they are plans for peace, not disaster, to give you a future filled with hope." JEREMIAH 29:11

God has a plan for you. In time, you will begin to see what that is. Continue to journey through life and when you feel beaten down by the world (there will always be ups and downs) remind yourself that you are capable of far more than you think. Carry his lessons and infinite new possibilites will open up.

Hope, Peace, Joy and Love to you.

A Message For YOU!

Reference: 'The Word For Today (26/05/23- written by Bob and Debby Gass)

‘Many are they who say of me, “There is no help.”’ Psalm 3:2 NKJV

Maybe you have repeatedly heard the words ‘You can’t’ throughout your life.

Many people like to tell others what they cannot do. Even people you wouldn’t automatically consider to be against you – teachers, coaches, parents, family members, friends, and leaders of church groups or social events, who often fail to realise the power of their words over young lives.

Many of us grew up thinking, ‘I can’t,’ when that wasn’t true at all!

No matter how often you have heard someone say, ‘You can’t,’ stand on God’s Word and say, ‘Yes, I can!’

Miracles come in ‘cans’ – our belief that we can do everything we need to do through Christ who is our strength (see Philippians 4:13).

God believes in you, and now is the time for you to believe in yourself. This is a new day! Put the past and all its disheartening remarks behind you.

Words that speak of failure come from the Enemy, not God, so determine right now not to allow the power of ‘you can’t’ to affect you any longer.

In contrast to the Enemy, God’s Spirit encourages you and will do everything to urge you forward towards success in all areas of life.

Facing the challenges of the promised land, God told Joshua three times, ‘Be strong and of good courage …’ (Joshua 1:9 NKJV). Always remember that if you feel discouraged, it’s from the devil. And that if you feel encouraged, it’s from God.

Decide to agree with God and say to yourself, ‘I can!’ Today let the power of God’s Word dominate the power of every negative word that has ever been spoken to you or about you.

SoulFood: 1 Kings 1-2 Matt 12:38-50 Ps 45 Pro 12:7-9
