In this heartfelt message, Tim Brown challenges us to rethink how we view God—not just as a provider, healer, or savior, but as our loving Father. Drawing from personal stories, biblical truth, and the parable of the prodigal son, Tim explores how our interpretation of God shapes our relationship with Him and transforms our prayer life. Discover the freedom of knowing God for who He is, not just what He does.

Welcome to Zion Media, the home of ZION at home. As a church we believe that we can gather anywhere and experience the presence, love and Truth of Jesus. Our desire is for the content presented here to encourage and uplift you, to inspire and teach you, and most importantly, connect you with Jesus.

This week, Guest Speaker Brendan Vink shares a personal and practical message based on the story in Mark 4:35–41, where Jesus calms the wind and waves.

Drawing from 27 years of following Jesus, Brendan offers three key tips for facing the storms of life. He shares real moments from his own journey—early-morning wake-ups, parenting challenges, and stressful days—to show how God meets us right in the middle of our mess.

You’ll be reminded that:

• Jesus is in your boat, even when the waves feel overwhelming
• Faith is stronger than fear
• Breakthrough often comes just after the storm

This message is for anyone walking through something tough, looking for peace, or needing encouragement to keep going.

We pray it blesses you today.

We believe the 'word for the year' is enablement, and so in this message, Ps Phil Strong leads us through a process of defining Enablement and what it means for God's people. In this message, the second in the series, we take a look at what is involved in raising sons and daughters in the family of God.

To "put others into motion" requires each one to step into their assignment to be active in the church family and contributing to the enablement of God's church.

We believe the 'word for the year' is enablement, and so in this message, Ps Phil Strong leads us through a process of defining Enablement and what it means for God's people. We take an interesting look at Levi, son of Jacob, and the blessing that followed for the tribe of Levi.

Finally, we look at the New Testament and how we each are called to partner with the gifts of God for the work of God.
