In the last census of Australia, 70.9% of people recorded that they were Christian. Less than 10% of these people are actively involved in/or attending a Christian church group of any kind.
From the true life stories told on this site, it can be clearly seen that people are finding answers to some of the difficult issues of life. These are real people with real problems just like all of us. They shared one thing in common. They had found that, despite their best efforts, life had brought them to a place where no-one could help them out of their problems...until they met Jesus.
Why do so many people in Australia, who say they are Christians, not turn to the church for help and answers in life? The sad truth is that most Australians think that church is boring, irrelevant and powerless to help them except for an occasional hand-out. The lives of these three people show that there is much more to Christianity than most believe.
Religion and empty ritual is not the answer. We need to dig a little deeper to find that God is real, alive and working today to bring healing, miracles, and restoration to broken lives. Our church is here to show you how to find your way back to God. He will help you when no-one else can or will... if you will only come and ask.
