Stonelaw Church

How has your faith in Jesus allowed you to experience a personal resurrection in your life? Are you ready to embrace new beginnings and step into what God's purpose is for you? This week, we explore the hope of the resurrection and what it means to live as "Resurrection People." We'll reflect on the story of Mary and Martha, consider how we can share the Good News with others, and challenge ourselves to be vessels of grace in a world that desperately needs it.
Scriptures: John 11:17-27 & Romans 6:5-11

Our minister, Neil, delivered a short Easter message at our Easter celebration service that focussed on the transformative power of Jesus' resurrection and what it means to truly live in resurrection hope!
There is a radical transformation that occurs when we accept Jesus, becoming new creations filled with purpose. The resurrection invites us to look beyond earthly judgments and embrace the promise of new beginnings, regardless of our past mistakes or regrets, becoming light in a world that is so often dark.
Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5:14-21

In this Palm Sunday sermon from Stonelaw Church, we explore the crowd's limited understanding of Jesus as a political liberator and challenge ourselves to seek a deeper, more transformative relationship with Him. Discover how Jesus' humble arrival on a donkey redefines our perceptions of greatness and leadership. Are we willing to let go of our preconceived notions and embrace the new thing God is doing?
Scripture: John 12:12-19

This week we close out our sermon series by exploring the message to the church in Laodicea from the Book of Revelation. Known for its wealth and prosperity, the Laodicean church faced a critical challenge: spiritual complacency. We explore the dangers of lukewarmness and self-deception, examining how a comfortable, passionless faith can hinder our relationship with Jesus.
Scripture: Revelation 3:14-22

This week, we delve into the powerful message to the church in Philadelphia from the Book of Revelation. Like the early Christians in Philadelphia, we too face challenges and trials that test our faith but we can persevere through difficult times by trusting in God's unwavering faithfulness and sovereignty. Be encouraged to stand firm in your faith, knowing that God sees your efforts, values your sacrifices, and has a reward waiting for you in eternity.
Scripture: Revelation 3:7-13

This week we focus on the challenging message Jesus delivered to the church in Sardis. We explore the paradox of a church being outwardly successful yet spiritually dead, highlighting the dangers of relying on outward appearances of faith while neglecting inner transformation. 
Scripture: Revelation 3:1-6

This week we continue our sermon series, focussing on the opening to the Book of Revelation. The message to the church in Thyatira is just as relevant to us as it was to the 1st century Christians, as it emphasises the importance of accountability, discernment, and active perseverance in our faith, urging us to examine our lives and communities for areas needing correction and growth!
Scripture: Revelation 2:18-29

We continue our sermon series in the Book of Revelation this week, exploring the powerful message Jesus delivered to the church in Pergamum.
We see how their struggles resonate with our own challenges in 2025, as we navigate cultural, social, and political pressures that can tempt us to dilute our core beliefs and faith in Jesus, where true strength and hope are to be found!
Scripture: Revelation 2:12-17
