27th May 2026 Reflection: LeadUp Conference Johnny, Zach & Rachel On Monday and Tuesday Johnny, Zach and Rachel attended LeadUp Conference, a Baptist leadership conference at Kiah Ridge in the Southern Highlands. It was a great opportunity to learn about discipleship - for ourselves in our own spiritual formation as leaders, and for those we lead, that they too may grow and lead others to faith and in faith. It was also a great opportunity to meet with other associate pastors

29th April 2026 More Than History Throughout the book of Acts we read of the beautiful and impactful movement of the Holy Spirit in the life of the early church. The life and example of these first believers to receive the Holy Spirit continues to be an inspiring (sometimes challenging!) one for us today.
