“I Am…” | Who Is Jesus? image

Who is Jesus? It’s one of the most asked and most answered questions in human history. People call him a prophet, a good teacher, a revolutionary, a spiritual guide, a myth. Opinions are everywhere. But if we really want to know who Jesus is, the best place to start is with Jesus himself. That’s exactly what we’ll be doing in our new sermon series: “I Am…” | Who Is Jesus? Starting Sunday 24 August and concluding on Sunday 12 October, we’ll explore the seven powerful statements Jesus makes in the Gospel of John all beginning with the words “I Am…” These aren’t just poetic metaphors or nice-sounding ideas. Each one is a truth-packed window into Jesus’ identity, mission, and work ...

Magnify | An Evening of Prayer & Praise image

At Salt Church, we’re praying for a flood of lifelong disciples who are growing in their awe and love of God, joyfully giving thanks to Him, and living in obedience to His will. That’s why we believe it’s important to regularly gather in adoration of God: to remind ourselves who He is, what He’s done for us, and to help centre our hearts and minds on Him. Magnify is a night to do just that, to grow in our love for God! It isn’t just for people who love singing or play an instrument; it’s for all of us. Because all of us need moments that stir our hearts and reorient us toward God. We all need reminders of His ...

Worth Sharing | Why & How To Share The Gospel image

Some things in life are just meant to be shared… a stunning sunrise, a new favourite café, or a life-changing experience. You don’t need to be told to share it, you just do! There’s something about joy, beauty, or truth that naturally pushes us outward. We want others to see what we’ve seen, feel what we’ve felt, and experience what we’ve experienced. As Christians, we believe the gospel of Jesus is the ultimate thing worth sharing. It’s not just good advice or a nice idea, it’s a message of real hope, life, forgiveness, and purpose. It answers our deepest needs and offers a future that nothing else can. And if we really believe that, we can’t keep it to ourselves! ...

Worship in the Darkness | The Book of Job image

Is Trusting God Worth It, Even If You Suffer for Him? That’s the question at the heart of our new series—and the question the book of Job boldly tackles. We often turn to the Bible looking for answers, especially when life hurts. And yes, Job suffers—deeply. But if we turn to the Bible only in search of answers we hope will end our suffering, we’ll miss the point. The book of Job isn’t primarily about suffering. It’s about God. Job suffers as a believer, because he believes. But the spotlight doesn’t stay on Job—it shifts to the God Job responds to. What kind of God is He? Can He be trusted? Is He just? Good? Sovereign? And what does it ...

Thank God It’s Monday | The How & Why of Work image

Work—it fills most of our week, we let it shape much of our identity, and yet, for many of us, it still feels confusing. Is it just about paying the bills? Chasing a dream? Doing something that matters? Whether you’re climbing the ladder, clock-watching till Friday, or figuring out what’s next, chances are you’ve asked: Why do I work? Starting Sunday, 4 May, join us for our new 4-week series: “Thank God It’s Monday – The How & Why of Work.” We’ll be exploring what God says about work—how He sees it, what He wants for us in it, and how we can honour Him whether we’re behind a desk, at home, in the classroom, on the tools, or between ...

Easter 2025 at Salt Church – Come Celebrate With Us! image

At Salt Church, our heartbeat is simple: we want to see more and more people become disciples of Jesus. That’s what drives everything we do—and Easter is the perfect time to share that with our city. Easter isn’t just another holiday. It’s the best news Wollongong could ever hear. The death and resurrection of Jesus is the truth that shapes our lives, fills us with hope, and gives us a reason to celebrate. So we want to make the most of this moment—by gathering together, inviting others in, and celebrating what Jesus has done. Here’s what Easter at Salt Church will look like: Good Friday | 18 April – 9:00 am only We’ll gather at 9:00 am to reflect on ...

Finding Focus image

Finding Focus for 2025: A Vision for the Year Ahead As we begin a new year, it feels like the perfect time for each of us to take a step back to focus on what matters most. For those of us at Salt Church, this means centring our lives around God’s purposes for us in 2025, and beyond! In previous years, we’ve held a Vision Sunday at the end of January to kickstart the year and recalibrate our hearts and minds for what God wants to accomplish through us. However, this year we’re doing something a little different. For 2025, we’re expanding Vision Sunday into a four-week series, and we couldn’t be more excited to walk through this with our ...

Who Are We? image

With 8 billion people on the planet, you’d think we’d agree on who we are and why we’re here. But these days even basic questions of human identity and morality are up for debate. So, we’re going to dive into two fundamental questions, seeking answers that we believe only God can provide. 12 January 2025: Who Are We? Accidents or Designed? We all love an origin story—because where we came from shapes who we are. But is life the result of random chance, or are we intentionally designed by God? 19 January 2025: Who Are We? Mostly Good or Mostly Bad? Many people say humans are basically good, but that doesn’t match what we see in the world or even ...
