Preaching Series | I Am: Jesus in His Own Words

Big Idea of the Series: This seven-week series explores the seven “I Am” statements of Jesus in the Gospel of John. Each “I Am” declaration illustrates a specific revelation of Jesus’s character and testifies to his divinity. Also, each of the “I Am” announcements reveal our spiritual needs and how Jesus perfectly meets each and every one.  

If you and/or your life group would like to explore Sunday messages a little more, each week we will post the next week's small group questions here. 
I am the resurrection and the life.

Coffee!
At FBC we are so privileged to be able to have a coffee machine which can produce beautiful barista made coffee. This machine has been serving our church and our community for many many years now. It has helped us raise thousands of dollars, contributing to a wide range of ministries with the life of our church. It has helped us host many pastoral meetings, and community gatherings. Our machine is starting to get tired and it is time to consider replacing it with a newer and lower cost machine. 
To do this we need to raise the funds for it. A generous coffee lover has given a significant donation toward replacing the machine but we would need a top up to purchase a suitable machine. If you would like to contribute toward this machine, which helps provide important ministry at FBC, please donate into the church account and use the reference COFFEE. 
Thank you for reading our Connection Corner. We hope this communication will help to connect us together as a congregation. 
 
Sunday 9 June  - "I am the resurrection and the life"  -  Sandra Bruin

‘I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?'
 ‘Yes, Lord,’ she replied ‘I believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of God, who is to come into the world.’
John 11:25-27
In this story, Jesus steps into one of humankind’s greatest griefs—the loss of a loved one. The pain and emotional agony that Martha and Mary felt was overwhelming. In the same manner, Jesus steps into our moments of greatest hurt, confusion, loss, and trials. 
Join us as we dive deep into this theme on Sunday morning.

I am the resurrection and the life.
