Momentum Church Podcast

Weekly podcast of messages from Momentum Church on the Gold Coast. Most messages are from our Senior Pastor, Harry De Vries, but also some from lay members and occasional guest speakers.

Ps Harry de Vries - "Let's Pray More" 04/16/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "Let's Pray More" From the very first verse, Psalm 65 makes it clear: “Praise awaits you, our God, in Zion; to you our vows will be fulfilled. You who answer prayer, to you all people will come.” – Psalm 65:1–2 (NIV) This passage highlights a foundational truth: God listens. Prayer is not just a spiritual ritual—it’s a real conversation with the God who answers. Psalm 65 reminds us that: God hears us when we pray, God forgives us even when we fall short and God provides for us, both spiritually and physically. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/36197840

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Power of Testimony" 04/10/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Power of Testimony" Long before he was thrown into the lions' den, Daniel had already won the respect of King Darius through the character of his testimony. Scripture tells us that Daniel was “distinguished above the governors and satraps, because an excellent spirit was in him” (Daniel 6:3 NKJV). Darius saw in Daniel a man who was honest, wise, and deeply committed to something beyond politics—his God, Daniel's lifestyle showed a power of testimony to the faithfulness of God. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/36091380

Kristy Brereton - "Hear and Obey God's Call" 04/01/2025

Kristy Brereton - "Hear and Obey God's Call" Throughout Scripture, we see a divine rhythm—God calls, and His people respond. Genesis 22 illustrates this beautifully as Abraham hears God’s voice, answers, and takes action. This sermon unpacks how God calls our name, invites us into deeper faith, and leads us through life’s challenges with purpose and always with His presence and divine grace. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/35953840

Nicholas Van Deventer - "The Power of Words" 04/01/2025

Nicholas Van Deventer - "The Power of Words" Words have the power to build up or tear down, strengthen faith or breed doubt. In Matthew 14:22-32, we see how Peter’s words—"Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water"—demonstrated his faith. But his doubt-filled words later caused him to sink. Nicho explores the significance of our words in shaping our faith, relationships, and walk with God. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/35953685

Ps Harry de Vries - "Vision 2025 - Worship Jesus He Is More Than A Sunday" 03/22/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "Vision 2025 - Worship Jesus He Is More Than A Sunday" At Momentum Church, we believe Jesus is more than just a Sunday experience—He is the foundation of our daily lives. Our vision is to cultivate a thriving community of believers who live out their faith every day, at home, at work, and in their communities. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/35817445

Ps Patrick Fitzgerald - "Timeless Encounter" 03/06/2025

Ps Patrick Fitzgerald - "Timeless Encounter" Ps Patrick shares a message with us about the need to dream again for the things of God. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/35565315

Ps Harry de Vries - "Hear, Plant, Water" 03/06/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "Hear, Plant, Water" In 1 Corinthians the Apostle Paul speaks to them about everyone having a roll, a part to play in the kingdom of God. To quote Dr Martin Luther King we the church, need to be thermostats instead of thermometers in our communities and Paul shows us no matter what we do whether we plant or we water we first need to hear what God is saying to us and remember that it is only God that causes the grow. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/35565090

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Gifts of the Spirit - Motivational Gifts" 02/26/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Gifts of the Spirit - Motivational Gifts" We all need to motivated at times, motivated to do different things or get up in the morning. Each person has a unique way of being motivated and God knows exactly who you are because He created you, He fashioned you, He formed you and spoke into you. So who better than our heavenly Father to place within us His children, the gifts of motivation we read about in Romans 12. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/35444030

Ps Patrick Fitzgerald - "Pot of Diversion" 02/20/2025

Ps Patrick Fitzgerald - "Pot of Diversion" Ps Patrick Fitzgerald is from People's Church Dublin City and he shares with us a message about Jacob and Esau and the destiny that is before them both. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/35371315

Ps Harry de Vries - "Gifts of the Spirit - Context in the Gifts" 02/18/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "Gifts of the Spirit - Context in the Gifts" Have you ever overheard a conversation and interrupted to give what you thought would be well appreciated information only to discover you had the context all wrong. When it comes to reading and studying the bible, context is everything and especially when it comes to the gifts in 1 Corinthians 12 where it appears they conflict with Ephesians 4. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/35321810

Ps Rebecca Gibson - "God's Unchanging Love" 02/18/2025

Ps Rebecca Gibson - "God's Unchanging Love" We all have aspects of our Christian life that we relate to God in different ways, for some it's about the worship, for others it can be the preaching or even about connection. No matter which way we relate do we consider all aspects of God in our walk that is do you see God the Father and Jesus and the Holy Spirit and can you identify with each one. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/35321415

Nicholas Van Deventer - "Live the Word" 02/17/2025

Nicholas Van Deventer - "Live the Word" Romans 10 tells us that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of Christ. We all have in this life the opportunity to live our best and when we have the revelation of the word of God we open ourselves to the amazing work of God through not just hearing the word but living the word. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/35321225

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Call of God" 01/26/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Call of God" On the 3rd of February 237 years ago under a great tree in what was to be known later as Circular Quay, the very first sermon was preached on Australian soil. The message was by a Minister called Richard Johnson and he spoke from Psalm 116 - "What can I offer the Lord for all that He has done for me" Richard understood the impelling call of God over his life and we all face the challenge of moving forward into our destiny to see that great call fulfilled in our lives so we can bring the Gospel message all across this great nation of Australia. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/35009845

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Gifts of the Spirit - 12 Corinthians Pt 1" 01/21/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Gifts of the Spirit - 12 Corinthians Pt 1" The Apostle Paul was in Ephesus when he heard about the church in Corinth and the disunity it was facing from sins that invaded the church that made the church appear like Gentiles. Paul confronted these issues by teaching them that they are many and yet one in Christ and he teaches them about the gifts of the Spirit that are available for anyone the Holy Spirit desires. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/34946710

Ps Narelle Davenport - "Out with the Old" 01/15/2025

Ps Narelle Davenport - "Out with the Old" In Matthew's Gospel chapter 16, many people were talking about this man called Jesus, who was he, was he Elijah, was he John, was he Elijah. The disciple Peter had a journey in his life that brought him from thinking Jesus was the One who would fix Israel from its predicament in the natural to a revelation that Jesus was truly the Son of God and Israel would have a different kind of salvation. Peter had to learn to let go of the old and believe for the new, Jesus showed Peter this at the Passover where Jesus taught them a new commandment - love one another. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/34873335

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Right Gift" 12/25/2024

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Right Gift" Have you ever thought about what Christmas gift you would give to God? What is the right gift you could ever give the Creator of the universe who has, knows and made everything, and what would God actually desire? In the book of Micah we read bout three things, three qualities of the heart that Micah shows us are the things that God desires from us. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/34615520

Ps Harry de Vries - "Twas The Week Before Christmas" 12/25/2024

Ps Harry de Vries - "Twas The Week Before Christmas" My mother had many Christmas traditions that she adhered to throughout her life from the way presents were handed out to the food we would eat. One particular year all of us children convinced our parents to let us open all the present a week early, what a great time it was until Christmas Day actually arrived, you can imagine how we felt and yes it never happened again. In Luke's Gospel Simeon was promised that he would see the Messiah and unlike us, he waited until he saw that promise fulfilled that not only showed the birth of Jesus but looked ahead to the salvation of mankind. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/34612860

Nicholas Van Deventer - "The Ministry of Christ" 12/12/2024

Nicholas Van Deventer - "The Ministry of Christ" The call of the Gospel message is one that is upon every believer, everyone who is a disciple of Christ has a mandate to go into the world and preach the Gospel. That world may be your home, your work, your family, that world is everywhere around us for God gives each one of us an opportunity to share about His goodness and love and what Jesus has done for us. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/34422055

Ps Harry de Vries - "Gifts of the Spirit - Five-fold Gifts Part 2" 12/02/2024

Ps Harry de Vries - "Gifts of the Spirit - Five-fold Gifts Part 2" When Paul writes to us about the Ministerial or Five-fold Gifts in Ephesians 4, he was writing to a church that was going strong, to a group of believers that had a desire to grow in their faith and Jesus. Paul could have been writing directly to you. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/34251780

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Gifts of the Spirit - Five-fold Gifts Part 1" 11/25/2024

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Gifts of the Spirit - Five-fold Gifts Part 1" Understanding the gifts of the Spirit is an important part of our identity in Christ, after all Jesus himself gave us the Ministerial Gifts also known as the Five-fold gifts in Ephesians 4. To understand how each gift operates helps us grow together in the unity of faith and understand one another in the Kingdom of God. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/34147980

Ps Rebecca Gibson - "Are Your Eyes Open" 11/19/2024

Ps Rebecca Gibson - "Are Your Eyes Open" Even though at times it seems like it’s hard to sit and read the word we must be encouraged to be obedient to persist and keep reading because as we read a spiritual transaction takes place. Mark's Gospel shares the story of Jesus healing a blind man and it appears that Jesus couldn’t heal the blind man the first time – but when we know God through reading His word we get to see there is more to see in this story and we need to open our eyes to the greater plan of God. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/34022967

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Gifts of the Spirit - The Word" 11/11/2024

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Gifts of the Spirit - The Word" When it comes to the Gifts of the Spirit we need to make sure we are looking through the right lens and our attitude is planted on the right foundation. There are some things that help us keep ourselves on track to make sure Jesus is always the centre of everything we do so we all can be available and ready for the Holy Spirit to use us for the Kingdom of God and God's glory. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/33888247

Nicholas Van Deventer - "Forgive" 11/05/2024

Nicholas Van Deventer - "Forgive" Nicho shares with us from Matthew Chapter 6 and the words of Jesus to us about forgiveness. The words of Jesus are very clear, we must forgive, if we don't forgive others our heavenly Father cannot forgive us and unforgiveness has a way of weighing us down. Jesus came to give us life abundantly and because we are forgiven, we need to allow that forgiveness to flow though us to to others. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/33808952

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Gifts of the Spirit - Divine Appointments" 10/21/2024

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Gifts of the Spirit - Divine Appointments" The will of God is about you being connected with the right people at the right time in the right place. When we look at the life of Esther in the bible we see the outworking of Gods divine appointment over Esther's life and His purpose for the children of Israel. God has a divine purpose for you today. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/33555587

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Gifts of the Spirit - The Church Today" 10/15/2024

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Gifts of the Spirit - The Church Today" Ps Harry shares a message of vision and dreams over Momentum Church that has happened over the last 8 years and his heart of what God is doing today. Jesus is still in control, Jesus is still the head of the church and Jesus desires that all would know Him. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/33474737

George McArdle - "Pearl of Great Price" 10/07/2024

George McArdle - "Pearl of Great Price" Whatever happened to the Gospel, is the Gospel just as effective today as it was in the past? George shares with us from the Matthew 13 and the parable of the pearl, God gives a gift of righteousness to the sinner. The parable is not about pearls, but it is about the gift of righteousness that God gives to sinful people. What sort of person considers the pearl of great price, the person who understands its true value, righteousness from God. God sees the person you really are the real Gospel recues us from sin and death wretched though we are and who will rescue this body of death. Praise be to God for our Lord Jesus Christ. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/33367737

Ps Narelle Davenport - "Called To Serve" 10/02/2024

Ps Narelle Davenport - "Called To Serve" Wherever God is good things grow. In 1 Peter chapter 4 we read that God has given each us as followers of Jesus Christ a variety of gifts, not just a variety but a great variety and we are to use these gifts to serve on another. Ps Narelle brings us into the word to look at how we serve God and His purpose and in that proccess we serve each other. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/33306637

Ps Harry de Vries - "Who Told You" 09/23/2024

Ps Harry de Vries - "Who Told You" Luke chapter 7 gives us an incredible story of events between a Pharisee, an unnamed woman and Jesus. The woman comes into a scene where the Pharisee is practicing what is known as Tzedakah but Jesus cuts through the social layers and deals with the issues of the heart and rearranges the room. Verse 44 shows us an incredible picture - Jesus looks at the woman but addresses Simon. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/33177007

Ps Harry de Vries - "Go Therefore Just Do It " 09/17/2024

Ps Harry de Vries - "Go Therefore Just Do It " Jesus lived in a culture culture teaming with hostilities and tensions against the Jews and others. There were racial divisions and vilification of groups like the Samaritans and segregation and political strife between the Pharisees and Sadducees, the Herodians, Essenes and Zealots, the taxing isolating culture against the sick, the poor and homeless and in the midst of all this, Jesus comes on the scene and starts his preaching ministry speaking love God, love yourself and love others. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/33098852

Nicholas Van Deventer - "Psalm 91" 09/09/2024

Nicholas Van Deventer - "Psalm 91" As Christians we are called to move forward and not be stagnant in our walk with Jesus. Nicho shares with us from Psalm 91 and some on his personal testimonies of how God encourages and uplifts us for the work of the ministry, the promises of the Psalm and God's unwavering love and protection over us are available for all who dwell in the secret place of the God and that God will be our refuge always. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/32981472
