14 June 2026 | Living Quietly in a Loud World (Mat Thomas)

In this message, Mat takes 1 Thessalonians 4:9–12 and asks a pretty honest question: what does it actually look like to live quietly when everything around us is loud? He doesn’t land on escape or switching off from life, but on something deeper — a heart that treasures Jesus above every other competing thing.
From there, this becomes a practical call to love well, stop getting tangled in everyone else’s business, and pay attention to the work God has already put in front of you. It’s a grounded message about faith, distraction, idols, and learning to live with less noise.

07 June 2026 | Following God in this Complex World (Mat Thomas)

Mat challenges the idea that there’s a “silver bullet” for following Jesus, ministry, relationships, or life’s messy situations. Looking at 1 Corinthians 9:19–23, he shows how Paul lived contextually—meeting people where they were for the sake of the gospel—because God doesn’t treat people like one-size-fits-all projects.It’s a grounded call to stop trying to control every outcome and instead seek God’s leading, pray honestly, stay shaped by Scripture, and walk with Him one day at a time.We’d love you to explore more of what’s happening at Wynnum Baptist Church: http://www.wynnumbaptistchurch.org.au You can also connect with us on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/WynnumBaptistChurch

31 May 2026 | Vision and Mission: The Next Generation Thriving for Jesus (Andrew Stoff)

Andrew unpacks John 3 and the conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus, showing that new life with God is something we receive, not something we achieve. He connects that with Ezekiel 36, Judges 2:10, and Psalm 78, calling the church to make room for the next generation—both kids growing up in faith and people of every age being born anew in Jesus. It’s a hopeful but serious reminder that faith doesn’t drift forward by accident; we have to keep investing, praying, and walking with those God is bringing to life.We’d love you to explore more of Wynnum Baptist Church here: http://www.wynnumbaptistchurch.org.au or connect with us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WynnumBaptistChurch

24 May 2026 | Vision and Mission: A Jesus-shaped Community (Andrew Stoff)

Andrew walks through Acts 1:4–11, looking at Pentecost, the Holy Spirit, and what it means to be a Jesus-shaped community. He pushes back on the idea that God is distant, showing how Jesus hasn’t abandoned His people but is present with us, working in us, and sending us out as witnesses.
It’s a grounded reminder that faith is not about reaching for a far-off God, but learning to live aware of the One who is already near.

17 May 2026 | Vision and Mission: A People Living Outwards (Andrew Stoff)

Andrew looks at Luke 15 and the kind of joy God has when lost people come home. He pushes us beyond a church that only looks inward, and into a life that notices the one—the person God is already chasing, already working in, already drawing back to himself.This is a vision message about living outward, joining God’s mission, and planting trees for people whose stories we may never fully see. It’s a call to open our eyes, because the harvest is closer than we think.We’d love to stay connected with you at Wynnum Baptist.

10 May 2026 | Mothers’ Day Service

Julia, Janis and Kylie share honest stories from Mother’s Day, each pointing to the way God stays present through pain, waiting, uncertainty and change. Drawing from Isaiah 41:8–16, Romans 8:28, Hebrews 12 and Philippians 4:6–7, these messages are a reminder that God is still writing our stories, even when the chapter we’re in feels hard to understand.It’s a grounded encouragement to keep trusting, keep praying, and keep holding onto God’s peace when life doesn’t look the way we expected.We’d love you to connect with us at Wynnum Baptist Church.

3 May 2026 | Vision, Values and Mission: Partnering with God in making disciples. (Andrew Stoff)

Andrew unpacks Matthew 28 and what it really means to “make disciples,” pushing back on the pressure to strive and instead pointing to a life of partnering with God. He keeps coming back to that idea of an “easy yoke”—that following Jesus isn’t about doing more, but staying close, listening, and responding as you go. There’s a strong reminder here that this is God’s mission, not ours to carry. He’s already at work drawing people, and we’re invited into it—right in the middle of everyday life. It’s a shift from feeling overwhelmed to simply being faithful with what’s in front of you.

26 April 2026 | Vision and Values (Andrew Stoff)

Andrew reflects on Matthew 22:36–40 and what it really means to love God and love others without turning it into striving. He keeps coming back to this idea of the “easy yoke” from Jesus—learning to listen, respond, and let Christ live through us rather than trying to force spiritual growth on our own. There’s a strong challenge here around drifting into comfort and missing the point, especially as the church looks ahead. It’s simple but not shallow: stay close to Jesus, respond to what He’s actually saying, and let that shape how you live, love, and follow Him day to day. If you’re exploring faith or just want to see what church looks like in real life, we’d love to have you connect in.

19 April 2026 | An encounter with Jesus (Graeme Jones)

Graeme shares a moment from John 3:16 that shifted things for him personally—realising God’s love wasn’t just general but directed straight at him. From there, he walks through Mark 14 and the story of the woman with the alabaster jar, showing what it looks like to actually encounter Jesus and not hold anything back.It’s a pretty direct challenge around surrender, humility, and the difference between giving Jesus a little versus being fully “broken open” before Him. There’s a strong thread of spiritual honesty here—letting what God has put in you actually flow out, instead of keeping it contained.If you want to check out more of what’s happening at Wynnum Baptist, we’d love for you to jump in and explore.

12 April 2026 | God our Healer (Dave Luthy)

Dave Luthy unpacks Joshua 10:1–15 and shows how this moment isn’t just a random battle, but part of a much bigger story God has been writing from Abraham through to Jesus. It’s a reminder that God is actively involved, powerful, and working out His purposes even when it’s not obvious.
He zooms in on that bold “sun stand still” prayer and challenges the way we pray—moving beyond safe, small requests to actually trusting God for the impossible. It lands in a really personal way, calling us to pray with real faith and expect God to move, even in situations that seem completely out of reach.
