In this episode, we reflect on what it truly means to be satisfied — not just physically, but spiritually. Drawing from John 6:25–35 and the story of the feeding of the 5,000, Fr Sam explores how Jesus invites us to move from seeking mere provision to encountering the Provider Himself.

Using the relatable story of his young daughter learning to communicate her needs, Fr Sam illustrates how, like children, we often sense our hunger or longing but misdiagnose what we truly need. The crowds following Jesus wanted more bread, but Jesus offered something far greater — Himself, the Bread of Life.

As we celebrate Harvest Thanksgiving, this message reminds us that gratitude for our “daily bread” is only the beginning. We are called to move from thanksgiving to transformation — to receive the Bread of Life in the Eucharist, and then to give back our first fruits in worship, generosity, and service.

Fr Sam invites us to see giving not as an obligation, but as an act of worship. Whether through money, time, kindness, or prayer, every offering is a response to God’s abundant grace.

Whilst Christianity is often thought of as a dualistic religion which says that the spiritual is Godly, and the world of matter evil, in fact God cares a lot about the material world. In this sermon for the 14th Sunday after Trinity, Fr. Sam Rossiter-Peters narrates how Jesus and St Paul simply advise us to orientate our concerns properly, putting God before the world.

In this sermon for the 14th Sunday after Trinity, Fr. Sam Rossiter-Peters reflects on the difference between knowledge and wisdom, drawing from the insights of philosophers like Socrates and Aristotle, and the deeper call of Christian faith. Through the story of Matthew the tax collector, we see how true wisdom begins with recognising our need for God and seeking Christ the Physician, who welcomes, heals, and transforms all who come to Him with humility.
