The light of the world (John 8:12-20) with Mark Thompson
In this episode, from a chapel service held on Friday 1 May 2026, Mark Thompson, Principal of Moore Theological College, speaks on John 8:12-20 and Jesus’ claim that he is the light of the world. Mark reminds us that from the very beginning of the Bible, when God declared, “Let there be light”, God has always been closely identified with light and therefore life. This makes Jesus’ claim all the more radical—and the Pharisees’ rejection of Jesus all the more devastating. In 2026, Moore College is giving thanks to God for his faithfulness over 170 years.

Foundations for gospel partnerships (Phil 1:1-11) with Mal York
In this episode, from a chapel service held on Tuesday 28 April, 2026, Mal York, Dean of Students and Lecturer in the Ministry Department at Moore Theological College, speaks on Philippians 1:1-11 and the beginning of Paul’s letter to the church in Philippi. Mal reminds us that true gospel partnership rests on three key foundations: the Lord Jesus Christ, genuine relationship and prayer.

Go and sin no more (John 7:53-8:11) with Mark Thompson
In this episode, from a chapel service held on Friday, 24 April 2026, Mark Thompson, Principal of Moore Theological College, speaks on John 7:53-8:11 and the woman caught in adultery. Mark takes us through some of the arguments for and against including this passage in the Bible, and reminds us of three important lessons encapsulated in the gospel. Firstly, it is all too easy for us to condemn others without first considering ourselves. Secondly, sin is always serious and has consequences. And thirdly, justification is always serious and has consequences. Find out how you can pray for Moore College, and sign up for prayer and praise points.

Church as family: The apostles’ invitation to live as siblings with Simon Flinders
In this episode, from the second plenary address presented at the Priscilla & Aquila Centre annual conference held on Monday 2 February 2026, Simon Flinders, Archdeacon to the Archbishop of the Anglican Diocese of Sydney, speaks on the topic of “Church as family: The apostles’ invitation to live as siblings”. In a world where church can easily be seen as an event or institution, the New Testament presents something far richer. The church is not like a family, it is family. Drawing on the language of adoption and new birth, Simon explores the depth of our shared identity in Christ, and the practical implications for how we love, serve and care for one another as brothers and sisters in God’s household.

Staying true to the ministry of the gospel (Galatians 1) with Philip Kern
In this episode, from a chapel service held on Tuesday, 21 April 2026, Philip Kern, Head of the New Testament Department at Moore Theological College, speaks on Galatians 1 and Paul’s plea to the Galatians not to turn away from the gospel. Philip reminds us that freedom is never absolute: we are freed from something for something—that is, life in the Spirit and the risen Son. For Christians, our existence is now defined by the cross, the Spirit and freedom. But the world, the flesh and slavery threaten to pull us back again.

Discipleship as new love: Jesus’ invitation to radically rethink “family” with Simon Flinders
In this episode, from the first plenary address presented at the Priscilla & Aquila Centre annual conference held on Monday 2 February 2026, Simon Flinders, Archdeacon to the Archbishop of the Anglican Diocese of Sydney, speaks on the topic of “Discipleship as new love: Jesus’ invitation to radically rethink ‘family’”. In a culture that elevates family as the ultimate source of identity and fulfilment, Jesus offers a radically different vision: he shows us what it means that his Father is also our Father. Furthermore, discipleship to Christ reorders our deepest loves and loyalties, for belonging to God’s family is not secondary, but central to the gospel: it’s a gift that reshapes every other relationship.

The inefficiency of gospel ministry (Acts 10:1-22) with Philip Kern
In this episode, from a chapel service held on Tuesday 14 April 2026, Philip Kern, Head of the New Testament Department at Moore Theological College, speaks on Acts 10:1-22: Cornelius’ vision at Caesarea and Peter’s vision at Joppa. Philip reminds us that, even though it might look inefficient to us, God is in the business of sending people to proclaim the gospel, for sending precedes hearing and hearing precedes believing. Furthermore, God’s sovereign hand defines the church and includes even those we would think are unlikely, because Jesus is Lord of all, not Lord of some.

Gospel advance with a twist (Acts 9:20-43) with Mark Thompson
In this episode, from a chapel service held on Friday 20 March 2026, the Friday before the start of Moore Mission, Mark Thompson, Principal of Moore Theological College, speaks on Acts 9:20-43, which contains the account of the beginning of Saul’s ministry, as well as the account of Peter’s ministry in Samaria and his healing of Tabitha, also known as Dorcas, in Joppa. Mark challenge us with a question: do you expect to see God at work? Do you expect him to do anything at all? If not, why not? Mark reminds us that the advance of the gospel is ongoing and unstoppable, and that God is still at work through his people today.

In this episode, from a chapel service held on Tuesday 17 March 2026, Lionel Windsor, Lecturer in the New Testament Department at Moore Theological College, speaks on Acts 8:4-40 and the parallel stories about Simon the sorcerer and the Ethiopian eunuch. Lionel calls on us to examine our hearts and reflect on our motives: why are we here? Why have we come to God? Do we desire power and influence, or are we seeking to worship him, longing for the fulfillment of his word? Find out and apply for the Preliminary Theologial Certificate (PTC).

Knowing your place (Acts 7:1-19) with Lionel Windsor
In this episode, from a chapel service held on Tuesday 10 March 2026, Lionel Windsor, Lecturer in the New Testament Department at Moore Theological College, speaks on Acts 7:1-19 and the first part of Stephen’s speech before the Sanhedrin, the Jewish ruling council. Lionel reminds us of Graeme Goldsworthy’s framework for understanding the Bible—God’s people in God’s place under God’s rule—and shows us how much of the Old Testament is not about that happening. But he encourages us to remember our proper place in Christ, for when you know your place, you can make sense of all the other places.
