Week 9 | Who is Jesus? | The Stronger Man
Freedom from fear of death. The ability to plunder the gates of hell and save souls for God’s Kingdom. These are what Jesus says we as believers have, because of who he is. But how do we know this is true? Continuing in his series “Who is Jesus?”, Darrell focuses on Mark 3 where Jesus establishes himself to be stronger than the one who causes pain and suffering in this world, whom Jesus has now bound. Darrell first highlights the importance of having an accurate worldview to view this claim- one that includes not just the natural world but the supernatural as well. Then, he talks about Jesus’ discernment of causes of, and remedies to, suffering. Finally, as believers, we hear what this means for our assurance of eternal life, and our ability to carry out Jesus’ mission of spreading the word of his salvation.

Week 8 | Who is Jesus? | Listening to the Father Say Who Jesus Is
In this sermon, Darrell continues to examine who Jesus is. Who does God the Father say Jesus is? Enabled by the Holy Spirit, the author of Hebrews hears God speaking to and about Jesus in the Old Testament. Through these texts, we see that Jesus is higher than the angels—and therefore the one sufficient mediator between God and humanity. He’s eternal and unchanging. He’s God’s Son. He is God.

Week 7 | Who is Jesus? | The Light of the World
On the eighth day of the feast of tabernacles Jesus, in the treasury of the temple, makes a cosmic claim about who he is: “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life” (John 8:12).
Taking us into the context of this passage, Darrell illuminates the layers of cultural meaning of Jesus making this claim, in this place, on that day. As those who seek to follow Jesus, Darrell unpacks several implications of this claim. Because Jesus is the light of the world, we are not in the dark about who God is, what it means to be truly human, the troubles of our world, where to find healing. Instead, as we walk with the One who is the light of life, Jesus colours our vision of reality anew, enabling us to truly see.

Week 6 | Who is Jesus? | I AM the Bread of Life
In our sermon today, we will study Jesus’ claim: I AM the bread of life.
Contentment and satisfaction run against the grain of a society that’s fixed on always getting more. In this episode, we are reminded of the one who can bring us true satisfaction that goes beyond the temporary, the one who calls himself the bread of life.
Teaching from John 6:22-40, Darrell unpacks the significance of the miracle Jesus performed, multiplying loaves of bread and fish. This miracle is more than physical provision it points to the spiritual provision of God that happens daily. To receive this, we are called to seek him and in this seeking, we find that Jesus sustains us with himself.

Week 5 | Who is Jesus? | Finally. A True Human
In this episode, Darrell Johnson explores the profound connection between Hebrews 1 and 2, describing these passages as one of the most eloquent sermons we’ll ever encounter. He reveals how these chapters showcase a dialogue where God speaks about and to Jesus, and Jesus, in turn, speaks to and about God.
Johnson emphasizes that God’s love for us is so deep that He became one of us, embodying the perfect human we were meant to be. This is why we feel an irresistible pull towards Jesus of Nazareth—He represents everything we aspire to be. To trust Him is to worship Him.

Week 4 | Who is Jesus? | Jesus Baptizes IN and WITH the Spirit
In this episode, Darrell Johnson explores the profound mystery of Jesus, the subject of more books and songs than any other figure in history. We delve into the perspective of John the Baptist, the last prophet to announce Jesus and the first to witness Him in the flesh. Johnson emphasizes that understanding Jesus is crucial, as everything hinges on Him, and all answers come from Him. Through John’s passionate declaration, we see Jesus as the God of Israel and the Creator who comes to fulfill a vital mission. Join us to uncover why knowing Jesus is so pivotal and what His mission means for us.

Week 3 | Who is Jesus? | Darrell Johnson left a promising academic career in science and instead devoted his life to preaching Jesus, driven by his love for the Lord.
But at first, one assumption deeply troubled him: the New Testament writers and the Church claim Jesus is God in human form, but did Jesus himself ever make that claim? Darrell retraces his research in John’s Gospel to show that is exactly who Jesus says he is.
He illuminates the context of Jesus’ words and actions, precisely linked to the rest of Scripture, to reveal that “I am He”, and tells us why this is ultimately the best news anyone can ever hear.

Week 2 | Who is Jesus? “Son of Man” was Jesus’ favourite way of referring to Himself. Darrell explores where the term originated, what it meant to first-century Jews, and why Jesus’ use of it outraged the religious leaders and confused His disciples. What, then, are the practical implications for us today? As the Son of Man, Jesus has final authority over all life. Knowing this puts our own lives in perspective and we are faced with a decision: will we risk everything to follow Him?

Week 1 | Who is Jesus? | “Who do you say that I am?” It’s a question Jesus asks each of us. If we are going to become like Him and follow where He leads, we need to know who our Rabbi is. In this new series entitled Who Is Jesus, Darrell takes us through the New Testament to hear and see who Jesus reveals Himself to be.
Beginning to answer that question, we will open this series turning to John’s Gospel and learn what it means that Jesus is the “Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world”. In this sermon, Darrell unpacks the text word by word, revealing the hope of this news - that we can change through the power of Christ’s victory. Our role is simply to yield - to be honest, come clean and throw the whole of ourselves on Jesus.

Throughout the Gospels, we hear stories of Jesus finding time to be alone with His Father to pray. So much so, that His disciples grew curious about the nature of prayer and the kind of relationship Jesus had with the Father. Teaching from Luke 11:1-13, Darrell unpacks the prayer and the parable that Jesus offers His disciples in response to their question - ‘how do we pray’? Through a Western mindset, this story is often misunderstood, but as Darrell takes us into the cultural context of the parable, we start to see what Jesus is doing in this story.
We not only find how to pray, incredible encouragement to pray as Jesus did with full trust in the goodness of the Father.

Discipleship Series | Week 8 | As disciples of Jesus, we are a continuation of God’s work that began in the Old Testament. In this passage, Peter uses Old Testament imagery to describe Jesus’ disciples as God’s own people, a chosen race, God’s temple, and a royal priesthood. Being priests, we have privileges and responsibilities, including direct access to God, making spiritual sacrifices, interceding for others, and conveying God’s touch and words of blessing to people in our circles of influence. Darrell exhorts us to imagine the difference we could make if we embraced our identity as disciples.

Discipleship Series | Week 7 | The Parable of the Great Banquet shows Jesus’ great joy as He invites people to follow Him into His Kingdom, as well as His great disappointment when people make excuses not to come. Our excuses reveal our idols and our doubts about God’s Kingdom and Jesus’ character. Jesus continues to invite us but will not do so forever. The banquet will go on with or without us. Darrell challenges us to verbalize our excuses, come to the table, and allow God to melt them away.

Discipleship Series | Week 6 | In this sermon, Darrell teaches from Mark 10:17-31 where we find the encounter between Jesus and the rich young ruler. The text invites us to ask ourselves: Who’s disciple will I be? Who’s final authority will I submit to in my life? Holding Christ’s love and desire for this young man’s good at the forefront of our minds, Darrell takes us through this challenging text and asks us to be intentional about the work of being and making disciples of Jesus Christ.

Discipleship Series | Week 5 | In this sermon, Darrell shares about the cost of being a disciple of Jesus. It is a decision that takes you on a narrow road that leads to liberation in Christ. Following Jesus does not result in life-draining stress, but when we read scripture like today’s text in Luke 14:25-33, it helps us to see that following Jesus doesn’t always mean choosing a path in life that is easy. Darrell unpacks the way the weight of discipleship is actually an invitation into a relationship, like the one we see between Jesus and the Father, where we find trust, intimacy, and joy.

Discipleship Series | Week 4 | In this sermon, Darrell invites us to take up the offer of Jesus to trade in our heavy burdens for a new yoke that He offers and assures us is easy. We are weary because we wear yokes of lust, anger, revenge, and envy. Why is the yoke Jesus offers easy? Because his yoke is his relationship with the Father - to please the Father. The yoke he offers us is one that has been designed just for us. And we don’t wear it alone - Jesus binds himself to us. He says, “Come to me all who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest”

Discipleship Series | Week 3
In today’s sermon, Darrell highlights how Jesus’ baptism, calling and wilderness preparation, initiate his action of calling disciples to make disciples - not just converts or churchgoers - but people becoming disciples - intimately attached to the lordship of Jesus Christ - because He has ‘commanded’ us to do this.

Discipleship Series | Week 2 | Jesus’ call for us to follow him as disciples may be unsettling to us, because it implies a radical shift of allegiance from something or someone else. It would be natural to ask, “what are we getting ourselves into?” Following the previous episode, Darrell explains that Jesus’ promise to his first disciples is the same promise to us today: an ongoing revelation of God’s Heavenly kingdom on this Earth that successively transforms our lives into increasing Christ-likeness. Finally, Darrell underscores that this is not a challenge to us to change ourselves- an impossible task given our fallible strength - but instead an invitation to life transformed by God’s power alone.

Discipleship Series | Week 1 | In this first episode of our new series on discipleship, Darrell takes us into the Great Commission found in the Gospel of Matthew. Darrell calls the church to take seriously what he calls the Unfinished Agenda of Jesus. He unpacks what this agenda is by referring to the Great Claim and Great Commission found in the passage. He then goes on to describe the 4 marks of a disciple: attachment, intimacy, submission and security and suggests that all disciples are learners who need one another to grow. The task of the church is not to build a bigger church, but to form disciples that can make disciples that can make disciples. Bless you as you listen & special thank you to Jason for your help analyzing this episode and to Will Lee for editing it for us.
