Central Church Port Kembla

From Law to Intoxicating Joy, from Water to Wine

Caro unpacks John 2:1-11 and looks at some of John’s deep wisdom and connection with other parts of Scripture.

From Scarcity to Abundance, from Water to Wine

John 2:1-11 is a story of Jesus’ first miracle in John’s gospel as well as a reflection point on how we can be moving from scarcity to abundance in our lives and communities.

Just Build a Bigger Barn

Caro unpacks the parable of the rich fool in Luke 12 and we wrestle with what Jesus might have to say to us about surplus wealth.

Capitalism & Care

The tension between the ideologies surrounding Capitalism and Care can be viewed as a spectrum. Henri Nouwen captures this contrast poignantly: “In a capitalist society... we are often measured by what we have. In the kingdom of God, we are measured by what we are willing to give away.” In this message, Oran brings both concepts into focus, inviting us to reflect on how they shape our values, choices, and daily lives.

Contemplative Service- The Sacrament of the Present Moment

We do a few short practices to help us be present to the moment and engage in a Lectio Divina from Jean-Pierre de Cassaude’s classic ‘The Sacrament of the Present Moment’. Ambient background music is by https://karlverkade.bandcamp.com/
