Blazing Eyes
First Love
Steven Dollenberg · 8 November 2026
Active religious routine and hard work can easily replace a genuine love for Jesus Christ. True spiritual renewal begins by turning away from mere labour and returning to the deep wonder of receiving God's love.
Colossians
Grace
Steven Dollenberg · 30 August 2026
True spiritual growth hinges on understanding that God’s grace is a finished gift to be received rather than a religious performance to be achieved. Through the unbreakable power of divine reconciliation, the supreme Creator of all things radically rescues hostile hearts to present believers as holy and blameless in His sight.

Colossians

Process, People, and Power

Steven Dollenberg · 19 July 2026

The Book of Colossians reveals the absolute supremacy and sufficiency of Jesus Christ as the singular answer for both the seasoned believer and the broken runaway. This message explores how the intentional and prayerful process of this weighty letter serves to captivate the heart and release the transformative power of the Holy Spirit.

Preparing for the Promise

Steven Dollenberg · 5 July 2026

Preparing for the promise of restoration requires the established guardrails of scriptural truth and the intentional removal of internal division. Revival is a payload carried by the mundane "wagon ruts" of daily obedience, necessitating the picking up of the sword of the Spirit and the laying down of personal conflict.

The Book of John

Protection | Transformation | Mission

Steven Dollenberg · 31 May 2026

John 17 captures Jesus’ final prayer before his arrest, revealing that heaven’s highest priorities for his followers are divine protection, spiritual formation through the Word, and an active mission to the world. These three pillars represent the heart of Christ, offering a blueprint for a life sustained by God’s power and anchored in the truth of scripture

The Book of John

Predict, Predict, Predict, Prepare

Steven Dollenberg · 26 April 2026

The deliberate rhythm of "retreat and return" establishes the essential spiritual foundation for navigating the inevitable human trials of betrayal, denial, and death. This consistent pattern of withdrawal into the presence of God ensures that internal brokenness is transformed by the Divine rather than transferred as a legacy to the next generation.

The Book of John

Encounter Change

Steven Dollenberg · 12 April 2026

A genuine spiritual encounter transitions the heart from religious formality to a personal relationship, moving Christ from a distant figure to an intimate Saviour. This profound transformation frequently takes place within the crucible of suffering, where personal trials serve as the intentional stage for the visible expression of God’s invisible nature.

The Book of John

It is finished

Steven Dollenberg · 3 April 2026

The declaration "It is finished" signifies the complete cancellation of spiritual debt and the definitive closure of all judicial charges through a single, exhaustive sacrifice. This finished work establishes an eternal state of grace that secures permanent freedom, rendering all human effort for self-justification and the weight of past failures entirely obsolete.

The Book of John

And there came a Lion

Steven Dollenberg · 22 March 2026

Unexpected trials and "lions" serve as a divine megaphone to rouse spiritual complacency and act as the essential "kingmaker" process for those destined for a higher purpose. Spiritual victory in the midst of crisis is found through an internal, hidden reliance on Christ as the ultimate source of sustenance, illumination, and strength.

The Book of John

The need for Grace

Steven Dollenberg · 22 February 2026

Grace bridges the vast spectrum between religious legalism and social rejection. Through the transformative power of the living Word, Jesus draws out the toxins of human failure and replaces a barren spiritual wilderness with vibrant, lasting renewal

The Book of John

Encounters with Jesus

Steven Dollenberg · 1 February 2026

A face-to-face encounter with Jesus ensures that no one—regardless of their past, brokenness, or distance from God—ever walks away the same,. From being relentlessly pursued in "dark corners" to standing prepared before God, life is transformed by the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world

The call to Christian

Steven Dollenberg · 11 January 2026

In the midst of all the voices and values of the world, we as 3Ci are called to stay true to God prophet future for each one of us. This week we are reminded of what that call is.

He Shall Be Called

The LORD is my Shepherd

Steven Dollenberg · 7 December 2025

Discover the covenant commitment of Yahweh, our Shepherd, who places His name upon you for blessing and protection. Learn how He tends the untended soul by conquering fear, settling conflict, and restoring the devastating ruins of generations.

The Book of Ruth

Meanwhile Boaz Went

Steven Dollenberg · 16 November 2025

This week we close our series on the book of Ruth by looking at ground zero for God’s redemptive work - a space we often overlook called ‘Meanwhile’.

The Book of Ruth

Redemption

Steven Dollenberg · 2 November 2025

Redemption in Ruth chapter 2 begins as Ruth humbly steps into God’s provision with faith, Boaz responds with kindness and generosity, and Naomi awakens to hope, each choosing to trust God’s redemptive plan, setting in motion a legacy of restoration.

The Book of Ruth

The Book of Ruth

Steven Dollenberg · 19 October 2025

In this new series, we are looking at the contrast between living by our own will (yashar) and the redemption offered by the coming King in the Book of Ruth. We explore how the Kinsman Redeemer intervenes in times of famine and ruin to rescue, restore, and redeem the destructive fruit of human self-will (yashar) to the uttermost.

More than Conquerors

What then shall we say?

Steven Dollenberg · 12 October 2025

Wrapping up our series, More than Conquerors, we look at the verdict demanded by the evidence of Romans 8: Are you convinced by God's promise of no condemnation, or are you the 'who' that separates yourself from His love?

Wailing

Steven Dollenberg · 28 September 2025

When tears are running down your cheeks and words cannot express your pain, discover how the Holy Spirit intercedes for us with groans. God leans into your weakness, revealing the Spirit as our Counsellor, Advocate, and Comforter who proves that in all things, God is enough.

Made for More

Work

Steven Dollenberg · 21 September 2025

Creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to show themselves, to take up their responsibility, to claim what’s rightfully theirs, not only in their spiritual lives, but in their work lives as well.

More than Conquerors

Healing

Steven Dollenberg · 10 August 2025

"God’s heart is for healing, and His Spirit brings life and restoration. Join us as we explore how to pray with steadfast faith, trusting that while God longs to heal, His miracles often unfold in beautiful and unexpected ways."

More than Conquerors

To the uttermost

Steven Dollenberg · 20 July 2025

What does it mean to live fully in the Spirit? Explore the Holy Spirit’s work in you, through you, and upon you—for a life marked by freedom, power, and transformation.

More than Conquerors

Therefore. Now. No.

Steven Dollenberg · 29 June 2025

Your faith depends on you. If you don’t truly believe, you won’t be able to live it out—it will hold no real meaning for you. If what you are saying to yourself is contradictory to the promises of scripture - you will never step into the fullness of what God has for you.

More than Conquerors

Therefore

Steven Dollenberg · 22 June 2025

As we begin our new series, More Than Conquerors, we’ll journey through Romans 8 and discover what it means to live by the Spirit rather than by the law.

Finding Sophia

Remember your Creator

Steven Dollenberg · 11 May 2025

Remember your Creator while you’re still young, Before the years take their toll and your vigour wanes, Before your vision dims and the world blurs. And the winter years keep you close to the fire.
