Sunday Sermons - Reality Church London

This Sunday we continued our 'Church Alive' sermon series. In Acts 6 and 7, we see that one reason the early church was alive, is because it was filled with people who loved Jesus and the gospel more than they did their own lives. They were ready to give up their life for the sake of Jesus. What makes you alive, fully alive, is knowing what it means to die well. This sermon explores what it means to die well, and how in so doing we learn how to be fully alive.

This Sunday we continued our 'Church Alive' sermon series. In Acts 16, Paul and Silas are in a very difficult situation as they have been thrown in prison. Instead of being in despair because of their circumstances, they worship God. The gospel brings joy and courage, enabling a person to sing even while shackled. The gospel brings freedom and courage, even in the hardest days and longest nights. This sermon explores the transformative power of joy even in the midst of suffering.

This Sunday we continued our 'Church Alive' sermon series. In Acts 4, we see the formal beginning of the persecution of the early church. Yet even amid their suffering and persecution, we see a church alive, filled with people of courage because of their closeness to Jesus. Listen to this sermon as we learn to have courage to declare the word God and to proclaim the Gospel in our city.

This Sunday we continued our 'Church Alive' sermon series. In this sermon, 'Mission: Engaging the City, Paul is both engaged with the culture of the city, and yet critical of it. In Acts 17:16-34, we see a model for how Christians speak to their city about the gospel. Paul is able to show how the gospel brings to fulfilment the longings of the human heart, even when the heart doesn’t realise it’s longing for God. Listen to this sermon as we learn hoe the church can engage the city.

This Sunday we continued our 'Church Alive' sermon series. We looked at Acts 10 which records another conversion story, but very different than Paul’s conversion. Here in Acts 10, Peter, who was an apostle and the leader of the church, experiences a kind of conversion. He realises that the good news of Jesus is for all peoples. Listen to this sermon as we learn how the same gospel which reconciles people to God also reconciles those people to other people, across racial, ethnic, and cultural lines.

This Sunday we continued our 'Church Alive' sermon series. We explored the story of Saul. Saul had been persecuting the church but was changed by an encounter with Jesus Christ. How did it happen? Listen to this sermon about Saul’s conversion and how it illustrates the power of the gospel to change a life.

This Sunday we continues our sermon series called 'Church Alive'. We looked at Acts 3:1-16: Peter and John were used by God to relieve suffering in their city. Here in Acts 3, we see the gospel in the city, the gospel as both word and deed that changes lives and changes the city. Listen to this sermon as we continue to learn what it means to be a church alive. ‘Note: due to technical difficulties, there were a few minutes in the beginning of this sermon that were lost on the recording. The scripture reading Acts 3 1-16 is missing. Our apologies for that as you listen’.

This Sunday we continued our sermon series in the book of Acts. We looked at Acts 16: 6-15 shows us about being 'Led by the Spirit. The early church was filled by the Spirit, but they were also sensitive to the Spirit’s leading. Acts shows a church seeking to live every day in step with the Spirit. This sermon explores what it means to be led by the Spirit, especially when the Spirit of God says no to our plans, however well-intentioned those plans may be.

This Sunday we continued our new sermon series called 'Church Alive'. We look at Acts 2:1-13 and the early church lived and moved in the power of the Spirit. The Spirit of God filled his church and empowered them for mission. ‘Note: due to technical difficulties, there were a few minutes in the beginning of this sermon that were lost on the recording. The scripture reading starts at Acts 2: 7. Our apologies for that as you listen’.

In this RCL conversation, we hear from an Equip class where we asked the question 'How can serving in the church be a joy, and not lead to burnout or imbalance?' Pastor Bijan Mirtolooi takes a practical look at serving Christ in the church. Note: one of the books citied at this class is John Hindley’s book, Serving Without Sinking, which we recommend as a helpful resource.
