Ps Harry de Vries - "For Such A Time As This" 08/26/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "For Such A Time As This" Life is filled with such a time as this moments, we all have them whether they relate to our faith, our work or our families we all have moments that have a greater impact than we realise at the time. Tim Keller said "God always answers your prayers in precisely the way you want them to be answered if you knew everything he knew." If we get on God's page and understand that he has an amazing purpose for your life you will see all the for such a time as this moments. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/37955930

Ps Harry de Vries - "The This and That of Christ in You - Authority" 08/18/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "The This and That of Christ in You - Authority" Ps Harry shares with us from the book of Genesis and the story of Adam and Eve and the fall of man. God created Adam in His image and he gave him a relationship with himself plus a world in which he was supposed to take dominion over and subdue. Adam because of disobedience lost not only his birthright but also his blessing. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/37857000

Nicholas Van Deventer - "Be Bold In Christ" 08/14/2025

Nicholas Van Deventer - "Be Bold In Christ" In Matthew 16:21-28, Jesus calls His followers to deny themselves, take up their cross, and follow Him. True discipleship requires courage—standing firm in faith even when it’s costly. Being bold for Christ means choosing obedience over comfort, truth over popularity, and eternal reward over temporary gain. Live fearlessly for Jesus today! /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/37825510

Kristy Brereton - "Where Is Your Intimacy At" 08/07/2025

Kristy Brereton - "Where Is Your Intimacy At" We know that Jesus always had a crowd following him to see what would happen and no doubt what they could get. Jesus had the crowd, the 120, the 12 disciples and then the three closest to him. As we get closer to God we get closer to the Spirit of God and as we get closer to the Spirit of God our sinful nature gets exposed so we can leave it at the cross of Jesus and move forward without condemnation and we develop a lifestyle of repentance before God. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/37712800

Ps Harry de Vries - "Mission Sunday" 08/02/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "Mission Sunday" This mission Sunday Ps Harry shares with us the work that Jesus did everywhere he went and how Jesus displayed N.O.E. plus we hear what is happening across Indonesia, Philippines and in Australia . /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/37644660

Ps Harry de Vries - "Looking Forward" 07/23/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "Looking Forward" Ps Harry shares with us the word that has been over Momentum and a reminder to seek the Holy Spirit to write on your line, believing that God has a plan for all of us to flourish and grow in his Kingdom purpose. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/37525970

Ps Darren Hessenberger - "Shift It" 07/17/2025

Ps Darren Hessenberger - "Shift It" Ps Darren is the Senior Pastor of Highlands Christian Church in Mittagong and he shares with us from 1 Samuel and the story of the prophet Samuel and what era he was coming into in Israel's history. Israel did what was right in their own eyes and had fallen into the trap of adding idols to their faith. Whenever we add an idol to our faith the result is never good as our God Jehovah is the One true God that nothing can compare to. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/37436000

Ps Tom Inglis - "Our Words in God" Pastor Tom is recognised by many as an Apostle of Worship who carries a prophetic word that is fresh and relevant for the church today. He has travelled across the world teaching the message of ‘worship as a lifestyle’ and is considered by many as a pioneer in the area. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/37340520

Ps Tom Inglis - "Thanksgiving" 07/08/2025

He has travelled across the world teaching the message of ‘worship as a lifestyle’ and is considered by many as a pioneer in the area. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/37339950

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Rich Young Ruler" 06/25/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "The Rich Young Ruler" Discover the powerful contrast between self-righteousness and God’s righteousness through the story of the rich young ruler in Mark 10:17–31. Learn why eternal life can't be earned—only received. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/37153510

Ps Harry de Vries - "Our Living Worship" 06/18/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "Our Living Worship" Dr Martin Lloyd-Jones said: “A great danger confronting us in this present time is that people keep talking about Christianity instead of talking about Jesus. We start with ourselves, we start with our problems our difficulties, we start with the world as it is, and we end with that. People are merely interested in the application of Christianity not the Christ of Christianity.” The people wanted to make Jesus king because they saw the miracles and not the kingdom of God and in our worship we can fall into the trap of the what taking precedence over who that is Jesus Christ the centre of our worship. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/37062485

Bishop Joel Kakembo Ntambi - "The Master Key of Prayer" 06/09/2025

Bishop Joel Kakembo Ntambi - "The Master Key of Prayer" Are you facing a midnight moment? Locked in a situation that feels impossible? In Acts 16, Paul and Silas were beaten, chained, and thrown into a dark prison—but instead of giving up, they prayed and praised. What happened next reveals the master key of prayer. Prayer isn’t the last resort—it’s the first weapon. When we choose to pray, even in pain, heaven responds. Chains break. Doors open. Lives change. Not only were Paul and Silas set free, but the jailer and his whole household were saved. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/36929380

Ps Harry de Vries - "Worship in the Garden" 06/04/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "Worship in the Garden" Worship was there in Genesis 1 and was lost in a garden in Genesis 2. While we know that God inhabits the praises of his people we can fall into the trap that when we praise God then has to turn up and this is a self centred worship. Our worship begins and ends with God and Jesus reinstated, redeemed and restored our worship. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/36853915

Ps Harry de Vries - "No more than you can bear" 05/30/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "No more than you can bear" Do You Feel Like God Is Not With You? You're Not Alone—But You Are Never Truly Alone. Life gets heavy. Challenges mount, anxiety creeps in, and sometimes it feels like God is distant or silent. But the truth, rooted in Scripture, is that God SO loves you—and because of that deep, enduring love, He is always near. Let’s explore some powerful Bible verses that prove God's presence, love, and faithfulness even in our darkest moments. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/36781845

Nicholas Van Deventer - "The Good Samaritan" 05/21/2025

Nicholas Van Deventer - "The Good Samaritan" It was the Samaritan, a man despised by Jewish society, who stopped, bound the man’s wounds, and ensured he was cared for. His compassion moved him to action, and that action became the miracle the wounded man needed. Compassion isn’t weakness—it’s the beginning of healing. It opens the door for God to work. In this story, Jesus reframes what it means to truly "love your neighbor." It’s not about knowing the law—it’s about living it through mercy. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/36663500

Ps Cil de Vries - "Storm Chasing with Jesus" 05/13/2025

Ps Cil de Vries - "Storm Chasing with Jesus" In Psalm 77, we wrestle with doubt and distress—but also with divine faithfulness. What will you do with the cross? What will you do with the storm? Will you cower like the cow or rise with the buffalo? Join us in storm chasing with Jesus and discover hope in hardship. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/36555220

Ps Harry de Vries - "Worship Jesus" 05/08/2025

Ps Harry de Vries - "Worship Jesus" In the analogy of the jar filled with golf balls, gravel, sand and water we se that golf balls represent the most important things in life, the big things—faith, family, purpose. Worshiping Him is not just about singing songs on Sunday—it’s about making Him the centre of everything we do and when we see our life filled with the water of worship we allow worship to infiltrate every part of our lives and bringing us closer to a John 4 worship. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/36492690

Ps Rebecca Gibson - "The Jesus Way" 04/24/2025

Ps Rebecca Gibson - "The Jesus Way" What if Jesus coming to this world is more than dying on a cross, what if the idea of salvation was not just about us getting a ticket to heaven but more about lifting the veil on how we are to live here on earth. Jesus came at the time that He did to show people the heart of God and in Jesus’ ministry we see there is a real shift in focus from external action to having a true heart transformation. The Jesus way showed us, love, compassion, humility, forgiveness, generosity, integrity, truth, peace, patience and faithfulness to God. /episode/index/show/momentumch/id/36301640

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
