In "Awaken: Adoration," Ps. Courtney Lush explores the profound nature of worship and its place in the life of a believer. This sermon addresses how worship is our response to the revelation of who God is and defines it as ministry unto the Lord. Drawing from passages like Deuteronomy 10:8, Psalm 96:9, and Revelation 7:15, we will unpack what it means for us to be priests and temples of God. The message also challenges the tendency to focus on ministering to people, encouraging a return to the true purpose of worship—ministering to the Lord.

Join us this Sunday as we hear from one of Newlife's mission partners, Stu HerschellAdair as he explores the meaning of the great commission.
Stuart and Joanna have both been living and serving as missionaries in Battambang Cambodia for over 15 years. Stuart grew up on the Gold Coast and attended Youth at Newlife Robina before taking off to Cambodia fresh out of high school on what was meant to be a short-term missions trip, lasting just a few months. He fell in love with the people of Cambodia and his heart was moved to share the love of Christ with them. He soon was fluent in the language and went on to do formal studies as a missionary. A few years later, he met Joanna who was also serving as a missionary in Cambodia using her invaluable skills as a midwife to serve the poorest of the poor.
